According to a recent Future Market Insights (FMI) analysis, the global market for refurbished desktops and laptops is estimated to reach $17,854.1 million by 2023.

Refurbished PCs and laptops are electrical computer equipment that have been returned to the manufacturer due to faults such as manufacturing flaws, poor performance, or broken electronic components. Manufacturers take malfunctioning computers or laptops to inspect and fix the faulty parts.
Refurbished devices undergo scrutiny and after detecting the defective parts, it all moves down to get repaired and restored to their original condition, or close to the original quality. After the repair is complete, refurbished laptops are resold at a lower price than new devices.
Refurbished computers and laptops are a cost-effective option for businesses looking to purchase high-quality devices that perform like new ones without having to pay the premium price of a brand-new device.
Rising demand for low-cost electronic devices is a key factor that is driving the global refurbished computers and laptops industry forward.
Similarly, growing environmental concerns are expected to boost the refurbished computers and laptops industry.
Refurbished computers and laptops help to reduce electronic waste by extending the life of existing technology. By reusing existing devices, fewer electronics end up in landfills, reducing the environmental impact of electronic waste.
The production of new computers and laptops requires a significant amount of energy and resources. Refurbished devices on the other hand require less energy and resources to produce, making them a more environmentally friendly option.
Refurbished computers and laptops are often refurbished using parts from older devices. This helps to reduce the need for new parts and materials, reducing the environmental impact of production. Thus, purchasing refurbished electronics can help an environmental cause in the long run, and will help the market to expand rapidly.
Numerous startups are investing in refurbished workstations to reduce costs and sustain for longer periods. This will positively impact the global market during the projection period.
