Terms of the previous offer

  • The exact good-as-new product is currently out of stock; do not rely on the previous £549 price unless buying controls return. This is returned stock rather than a factory-sealed new laptop, and it may have faint marks or box wear.
  • 8GB unified memory and 256GB of non-upgradeable storage are basic capacities; they are a poor fit for heavy multitasking, large creative projects, virtual machines or a big local file library.
  • A USB-C charging cable is included but the power adapter is not. You need a 20W-or-higher USB Power Delivery adapter.
  • EE aims to include original accessories but does not guarantee every original accessory, and the physical UK keyboard layout is not explicitly stated on the listing.

Why the previous offer stood out

  • The A18 Pro chip, quiet Apple-silicon design and macOS integration make this a capable everyday machine for documents, browsing, video calls and light creative tasks.
  • The 13-inch 2408x1506 IPS display reaches 500 nits and the 1.23kg aluminium chassis is easy to carry.
  • EE describes these units as lightly used customer returns that pass cosmetic and functional checks and include at least 12 months of warranty cover.

Condition, warranty and price evidence

Condition
Good as new - customer return with little to no use and possible faint marks or box wear
Warranty
EE includes the remainder of Apple's original warranty or a minimum of 12 months' warranty, plus a 14-day cooling-off period. Confirm the written cover with the order.
Eligibility
The previous £549 price was public with no voucher, membership, contract or trade-in requirement. The exact good-as-new product is now marked out of stock, so do not rely on that price unless the 13-inch 256GB model returns with buying controls.
Recorded availability
Rechecked on 2026-07-31: the exact EE good-as-new product returned high-confidence OutOfStock structured availability at the previous £549 price. The successful 2026-07-30 verification date is retained because this was an expiry check, not an active-offer verification.
