TL;DR: Through September 7, get a refurbished 2017 MacBook Air with an Intel i5 processor, 8GB RAM, 128GB SSD, and 12-hour battery for just $199.97.

Not every laptop needs to cost a month’s rent — especially when it’s a MacBook Air built for the everyday grind. This refurbished 2017 13.3″ MacBook Air for $199.97 (MSRP $999) still delivers the core Apple experience: solid performance, sleek portability, and that all-day battery life you can actually count on.

Under the hood, it’s powered by a 1.8GHz Intel Core i5 processor and 8GB of RAM, giving you enough muscle for day-to-day work like emails, documents, streaming, and light photo editing. Paired with 128GB of SSD storage, your files open fast, apps launch quickly, and you’ve got plenty of room for the essentials without lugging around an external drive.

The 13.3-inch widescreen display sports a 1440×900 resolution, which means your spreadsheets, Netflix binges, and video calls look sharp without draining battery life. You’ll get up to 12 hours on a single charge, so you can work or play all day without scrambling for an outlet.

WiFi keeps you online wherever there’s a network, and Bluetooth lets you pair accessories or transfer files without fuss. Intel HD Graphics 6000 handles everyday visuals smoothly, whether you’re streaming in HD or editing presentations.

Because it’s refurbished with a Grade A/B rating, you can expect only light signs of wear — maybe a faint scuff or tiny scratch — but nothing that affects performance. And with an aftermarket 90-day warranty included, you’ve got extra peace of mind that this budget-friendly MacBook will keep up with your routine.

For students, remote workers, or anyone needing a secondary laptop, this is a smart, cost-effective way to get into the Mac ecosystem without paying Apple Store prices.
