Apple MacBook Air (2017) 13.3" Intel Core I7 2.2GHz / 8GB / 256GB REFURBISHED (6M WRTY)

MacBook Air "Core i7" 2.2 13-Inch (Early 2017/Broadwell) technically is a "configure-to-order" configuration of the MacBook Air "Core i5" 1.6 13-Inch (Early 2017/Broadwell), The Apple MacBook Air "Core i7" 2.2 13-Inch (Early 2017/Broadwell) features a 14-nm "Broadwell ULT" 2.2 GHz Intel "Core i7" processor (5650U) with two independent processors "cores" on a single chip, a 4 MB shared level 3 cache,  8 GB of onboard 1600 MHz LPDDR3 SDRAM, 256 GB of 4 Lane PCIe-based flash storage, and an "integrated" Intel HD Graphics 6000 graphics processor that shares the system memory. Compared to its predecessor, this model looks effectively identical, but has a more advanced processor and architecture, more advanced graphics, "twice as fast" 4x PCIe storage, and Thunderbolt 2 support. It has some different identifiers, too.

Powerful

This model is powered by a 14 nm, 64-bit "Fifth Generation" Intel Mobile Core i7 "Broadwell ULT" (I7-5650U) processor which includes two independent processors "cores" on a single silicon chip. Each core has a dedicated 256k level 2 cache, shares 4 MB of level 3 cache, and has an integrated memory controller (dual channel). This system also supports "Turbo Boost 2.0" -- which "automatically increases the speed of the active cores" to improve performance when needed (up to 3.2 GHz for this model) -- and "Hyper-Threading" -- which allows the system to recognize four total "cores" or "threads" (two real and two virtual).

Design
This MacBook Air packs in a razor-thin 0.11-0.68 inch), 2.96 pounds, aluminum case with an integrated 720p "FaceTime HD" webcam, a backlit full-size keyboard and a 13.3" widescreen TFT LED backlit active-matrix "glossy" display (1440x900 native resolution). Connectivity includes 802.11ac Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, analog audio out, a single "Thunderbolt" 2 port, two USB 3.0 ports, and an SDXC-capable SD card slot.

Thin, Light, Durable. Thank You, Flash Storage

Flash storage helps make MacBook Air incredibly thin and light - under an inch and as little as 2.38 pounds. Flash storage uses solid-state technology, meaning there are no moving parts. No moving parts mean flash storage is more reliable, durable, and quiet than traditional hard drives. And it takes up much less space than a traditional hard drive - about 90 percent less, in fact. That creates room for other important things, like a bigger battery. So you have a notebook that weighs almost nothing and runs all day long. Now that's mobility mastered.

A Thing of Beauty and Durability

The MacBook Air features a unibody design for both the main enclosure and the display. Unibody construction means a higher-precision, less complex design with fewer parts. That translates to a notebook that's exceptionally thin and light, yet durable enough to handle the rigors of everyday use. In addition, MacBook Air offers innovations like the MagSafe 2 power connector, which breaks cleanly away from the notebook if you accidentally trip over the power cord
