If you have been searching
the web for very long looking for a laptop you have
seen these three phrases. Do they have different meanings?
Yes they do as we will point out some reasons laptops
are labeled differently. Let's begin by examining
each phrase followed with a short definition:
Refurbished
Laptops
Refurbished laptops are PCs that
have been bought new by a consumer and has been used
between 1 day and 3 months(depending on the store).
The customer returns the laptop to the store for any
number of reasons. At this time the store cannot sell
it "as new". It must be returned to the
original manufacturer for refurbishing- which means,
"to make bright, or fresh again, renovate".
Most stores offer a 30 day money back guarantee and
within that time period is when most of the laptops
are returned for a refund and sent back to the manufacturer.
Thus refurbished laptops are born. Refurbished laptops
are not new, but the closest thing to it because most
are within a couple of months old. Refurbished laptops
will have better processing speeds, more memory, newer
Windows OS and the most up to date technology.
Next we have:
Used Laptops
Used laptops are generally a
little older, but are in perfectly working condition.
Used laptops are perfect for people wanting to use
a mobile computer for only a couple of applications,
but still needs the mobility of a laptop. You can
use these to run software programs in areas outside
of an office where a desktop is not practical. Used
laptops will have lower processor speeds, older Windows
such as 98 and 2000, less memory space, but will still
operate as a new one because they have been sent to
a qualified computer technician to be reconditioned
to it's original specifications. Used laptops are
perfect for students doing homework, a professional
that only needs to operate a few programs, or for
someone who just wants to access the internet without
the bulk of a desktop.
Then of course comes:
Cheap Laptops
Cheap laptops are basically a
laptop that has minimal programs, lower memory and
older OS programs. Cheap laptops are only cheap in
price and not in quality. Most people looking for
this kind of laptop is seeking a basic mobile PC to
run only a couple of applications, or software programs.
Cheap laptops are also used by those who only wish
to surf the net, access e-mail, or any number of functions
that don't require massive amounts of memory, or lighting
speed processors. Cheap refurbished laptops work as
new they are just a couple of years older than a refurbished
laptop. If a student only needs to run one software
program, or if an office worker just needs to create
spreadsheets outside of the office cheap laptops are
perfect. These are the choice of many people because
they are basic and "cheap".
Let's recap all this information
into a nutshell:
Refurbished Laptops-newer, faster, able to operate
more applications, latest technology
Used Laptops-a little older, basic Windows OS, slower
processor speeds, less memory
Cheap Laptops-older, mainly for schoolwork or operating
a few applications, lower memory
