iPhones and iPads, for example, come with a new outer shell and new battery, meaning you get same-as-new appearance and performance. (The aforementioned HomePod is a perfect example.)Īnyway, those refurbs must be "less than" in some way, right? What exactly do you give up by opting for refurbished Apple gear over new? There might be a sale at, say, Amazon or Best Buy that would net you a new item for the same price or less than an Apple refurb. Needless to say, you should always do your homework when shopping for Apple gear. And right now, many of Apple's prices on refurbished Apple Watches are actually the same as for new ones.

That said, don't automatically assume that Apple's refurb deals are the best deals. You can even get a refurbished HomePod speaker for $259, a savings of $40.
