Where to find the best refurbished business laptops

When you’re looking for excellent value on business laptops, consider the many options available from the Dell Refurbished Store. We offer affordable laptops, desktops and workstations refurbished to the highest standards of quality and reliability. While these computers are a bit older than the latest models and may have a few cosmetic blemishes, they’re warrantied to deliver excellent speed and performance. Most importantly, a refurbished business laptop from Dell Refurbished will be priced significantly lower than new models, allowing you to save money on each machine or to afford more powerful equipment for the same price.

What is a refurbished computer, exactly?

A refurbished business laptop from Dell is a Dell Precision or Latitude device that has been previously leased by a corporate customer and returned to us at lease end. As we receive these off-lease desktops, laptops, monitors and CAD workstations, we inspect each one and select the highest quality machines to be refurbished and made available for resale at a significant discount over new models.

Our refurbishment process is comprehensive and rigorous. We test each system to ensure that the performance and workmanship standards remain excellent. Parts that are missing or not functioning properly are repaired or replaced. All the data from previous users is erased from the hard drives and all components are restored to factory settings. Finally, the computer is closely inspected for any cosmetic damage and issued a grade according to how many imperfections or blemishes are found on the exterior of the device.

Throughout the process, each refurbished business laptop is audited several times to ensure it meets our quality and performance standards. Any computer that doesn’t meet these standards is recycled, rather than being refurbished.

Why buying a refurbished business laptop make sense

Choosing a refurbished corporate laptop offers several benefits over buying newer models.

  • Cost: This is the largest and most obvious advantage. Refurbished systems are usually priced well below newer models, allowing you to either save money on your purchase or to acquire laptops with higher-end specs while staying on budget.
  • Sustainability: Buying a factory refurbished laptop helps to minimize electronic waste. At Dell, our mission is to become the greenest technology company on the planet by refurbishing, recycling or reusing as many of our products as possible. Purchasing a refurbished business laptop from Dell Refurbished contributes to these efforts which are currently keeping thousands of tons of e-waste each year out of landfills.
  • History: Because our refurbished business laptops have been around a few years, you’ll find lots of user reviews and documentation about each machine’s performance and features. This kind of road-tested equipment may offer more peace of mind than purchasing a newer model with little to no performance history.

How cosmetic grades work

When inspecting our off-lease computers and business laptops for cosmetic damage, our technicians issue grades based on a strict tiering system to give you a better sense about the appearance of the device you’re buying.

  • Grade A: These machines are in very good to excellent cosmetic condition. Some Grade A devices are cosmetically pristine, while others will have small blemishes or minor scratches. Some laptops may have shiny areas around the keyboard, but the keys will be in excellent condition.
  • Grade B: These products will function just as well as Grade A machines and have the same warranty. However, because of added cosmetic imperfections, they’ll typically be priced lower than Grade A products. Grade B refurbished business laptops will have blemishes that include scratches, surface imperfections and discoloration. They may have shiny keys on the keyboard or shiny surfaces around the keyboard, though all key letters will be legible.

Regardless of the grade, each refurbished business desktop and laptop from Dell offers the same level of excellent performance or quality.

Buying in bulk

When you’re interested in buying a larger number of refurbished business laptops or desktops, you can save even more money by buying in bulk. Our bulk offerings include notebooks, laptops, desktops, servers, and monitors.

Bulk purchases must have a minimum order of 100 assets, and they must be sold and shipped to a licensed business in the U.S. Each machine will be rigorously tested, fully functional and backed by our U.S.-based customer service team. Each machine also includes a limited warranty with an option to extend.
