Refurbished Laptops FAQs
Why are refurbished laptops cheaper?
The simple answer is that refurbished laptops are cheaper because they are not brand new. They have been used before, so they are not brand new, out of the box perfect.
At PC Hardware Refresh, we work with WA’s biggest computer recycling company to source our huge range of laptops. After this, wipe the hard drive and reinstall the operating system.
This will remove any personal data or files that were on the computer before. We then install new components that might be worn out and then add new RAM and SSDs to extend the life of the laptop and make it run more efficiently.
Finally, upgrade the software on the laptop to the latest version. This can help improve its performance and make it more compatible with new applications and devices.
