Would this be better than the new M4 Macbook Pro at 1299 ? Looks like this one has more RAM too - 18GB vs 16GB

The MacBook Pro at $ 1,299 is with the M4, not the M4 Pro. This MacBook actually comes with the Pro chip, M3 Pro.

M3 Pro Chip is going to be better than M4 Chip for most workflows. The question is, how much do you trust Best Buy's refurb process and warranty?

Anyone have experiences with BestBuy refurbished? Is this worth it? I don't want a machine that has been beat on.

Edit: If you do decide to purchase, do it through ebay. Bestbuy has the exact same item listed on ebay through their seller page and ebay marks it with a 30 day return window (no restocking fee and only 15 days with bestbuy.com). Also, ebay refurbished has it set to a 1 year warranty included. Bestbuy does come with a few other benefits and amenities i'm not sure are included on their eBay page (apple tv, music, etc.).

Why only 90 days warranty?

It's BB refurb, not Apple refurb. Likely no AppleCare either.

It's a crapshoot. But BB usually does a good job in describing its condition but the price changes because of it also.

I have the m1 pro version of this laptop and it does everything I throw at it even though it only has 16gb of ram. I sometimes run heavy music production workflows with lots of plug-ins and effects and it hasn't had any issue. So I am confident this amount would not limit you with video production or whatever you need it for.

But, I'm confused now that there is weird ram amounts (18gb?) and they are selling many MBP that are not using the pro chips. This one has the pro chip and it makes a big difference. I have used Mac books without the pro chip and I'm not sure why but they can struggle sometimes when you need more power.

It would really come down to battery, "Not Identical to Apple Refurbished:Unlike Apple's own refurbished program, Best Buy's process may not replace the battery or outer shell on MacBooks"
