How to choose from Black Friday laptop deals

This Black Friday 2023 is the perfect time to find Black Friday deals on high quality laptops at an irresistible price. It’s important to know how to choose the perfect laptop for you as we have a wide range of options available on our website. In this guide to saving the most on technology we explain how to select the best refurbished laptop for your needs and budget.

Here are the key specifications to consider before buying Black Friday deals on refurbished laptops:

Processor. If you have no idea what processor you need for everyday use of your laptop, we always recommend that you choose one with an Intel Core i5 processor or higher to keep your computer running smoothly. If you are going to use the laptop for graphic design, 3D design, video editing, etc. take a look at the workstation laptops section.
RAM and Hard Disk Configuration. One of the advantages of buying at ECOPC is that you can configure the RAM and Hard Disk of each computer according to your preferences. Most computers are configurable in their RAM and Hard Disk but we recommend that you start from the base of 8GB of RAM and 256GB of Hard Disk so that the performance is optimal whatever the use you are going to give. If your tasks are going to be more specific and you want the computer to perform better, increase the RAM. On the other hand, if you are going to store a large amount of files, we recommend that you increase the capacity of the hard disk to 512GB or 1TB.
Brand and model. We offer options of the best brands of refurbished computers. That’s why at ECOPC you will find the best Black Friday deals on refurbished laptops. We work with professional computers from the best brands such as HP, Lenovo, Microsoft, Dell and even Apple. In addition, the laptop models that you will find in the catalogue are of professional range so they offer an exceptional performance and for many years.
Budget. Budget is perhaps the most important point to take into account during the Black Friday offers on refurbished laptops. We recommend you to define your spending budget before you start your search in order to be able to filter accurately and find what best suits you. The key to Black Friday is the price drop, so you’re likely to find something much cheaper than usual with excellent performance.

Black Friday monitor deals: how to make the best choice

Monitors are one of the most essential components in any workspace, office or desk. If you have a laptop you may not need it, but if you are looking for comfort when you are in front of the computer it is always advisable to opt for a monitor to be able to have a larger screen. Black Friday monitor offers are also highlighted in our online shop so you can get the complete pack at the best price. Do you want to know the points you should consider before buying a monitor? We’ll tell you!

The first thing you should take into account is the size of the screen: the normal size is between 23″ and 24″ inches. With this reference you will be able to decide whether you want it bigger or smaller. Try to measure the space where you want to place it and consult the measurements of the article in its characteristics. The Black Friday monitor offers will give you the opportunity to get a high performance monitor at a much lower price than usual. Another of the main points to consider is the resolution: the higher the resolution of the monitor, the sharper the details will be and, in short, the better you will be able to see.

The video input and output ports may make you hesitate about which monitor to buy. Check that the video output port on your computer (laptop or desktop) is the same as the monitor’s input port. For example, if the video output port of your laptop is HDMI, the monitor you are going to buy should also have HDMI as its input port. If this does not match, you can always use an adapter.

Most monitors do not have built-in speakers: this is the norm for work monitors. The simplest solution to this chaos would be to buy one of Dell’s sound bars, which are compatible with any monitor, as they connect via USB. You can enjoy improved sound in a super-cheap accessory: just €17.99. Take advantage of the savings thanks to the Black Friday monitor deals and get the perfect accessory like this soundbar.

Take advantage of Black Friday Apple discounts

One of the most sought after brands in technology during Black Friday 2023 is Apple. Apple products are always the most sought after in promotions and, we have good news, at ECOPC Black Friday Apple is a reality! Black Friday 2023 discounts are also included on all Apple laptops and desktops. So, if you were looking for a Macbook or you are thinking about buying an iMac you can find them at prices that you won’t believe, but they are real!

Apple Black Friday will include all available Apple products, known for their exceptional quality and design. When buying Apple products the price increases and that’s why this Black Friday 2023 is the perfect opportunity to get one of the MacBooks we have available at ECOPC.

Before buying one of Apple’s computers you should bear in mind that there are different product models. Choose whether you prefer a MacBook Pro laptop, with more professional performance, or a MacBook Air, which are always cheaper. There are also iMacs available, which are all-in-one desktops, i.e. all-in-one computer and screen with excellent performance and one of the best resolutions on the market. It is important to consider your specific needs before making a purchase.

Black Friday offers desktop computers

Do you want a desktop computer for your workspace? Take advantage of the Black Friday offers on desktop computers that will not fall short. We have a wide variety of desktop computers in different sizes, with different processors and performance. We even have a special section of AIO (All in one) computers that have everything included (screen + computer) and ready to use. Desktops are the perfect choice for those looking for powerful performance and the ability to perform intensive tasks.

Here’s what you should consider when choosing your computer in the Black Friday desktop deals:

Desktop computer size and type. Desktop computers are divided into several categories according to their size: traditional towers, mini PCs, compact format, AIO computers… Choose the type of computer that best suits your needs, taking into account above all the space available for installation. If you don’t have much space, opt for a Mini PC or an AIO computer which, since everything is included, you only have to worry about placing the screen.
Specifications and performance. The same as if you are buying a laptop. Look at the technical specifications of the desktop computer, such as the processor, graphics card, RAM and storage. This will influence its ability to perform specific tasks, such as gaming, graphic design or video editing.
Consider the screen you are connecting. Ideally, take advantage of Black Friday desktop deals to buy a monitor as well. Make sure that the video input and output ports are compatible. Since you’re buying a computer, get the monitor too!

Windows 10 end of support in 2025: Everything you need to know🌍💻

You’ve probably heard the news by now! Official support for Windows 10 ended on October 14th. 😱 But do you really know what this means? More importantly, how does it affect you if you use your computer daily for work, study, or just binge-watching your favourite series? Don’t worry—here at ECOPC, we’ve put together a clear guide breaking down everything you need to know about the end of Windows 10 support. So you can stop stressing and handle this transition confidently, equipped with all the facts. We want you to know what’s happening, what options you have, and how to turn this into an opportunity to save money and help the planet at the same time 🌱. Why is Windows 10 saying goodbye? 👋 Windows 10 launched back in 2015 (yes, a decade ago 😅) and since then has been the go-to operating system for millions of users and businesses thanks to its simplicity and stability. But everything has its time, and Microsoft announced earlier this year that from October 2025, they will no longer provide updates or technical support for Windows 10. So, what exactly does this mean? Simply put: ➡️ Your device will no longer receive security patches or updates to protect against vulnerabilities. ➡️ Although your PC will keep running, over time it will become more vulnerable to cyber attacks. ➡️ Older devices may not be eligible to upgrade to Windows 11. This has reignited the ongoing debate: Is this a genuine technological evolution or a strategic move towards planned obsolescence? 🤔 Whatever the case, replacing millions of devices poses a serious environmental challenge ♻️. Discover the benefits of Windows 11: more than just a new look ✨ Windows 11 brings a fresh design, but the real value is beneath the surface. It offers major security improvements designed to protect against current and future threats. If you multitask, use business tools, or value security, Windows 11 will make a real difference. Some of the most notable features include: A sleek, modern, minimalist interface (touchscreen-ready). Seamless integration with Microsoft 365 and OneDrive. Enhanced virtual desktop management. Improved privacy protections. New features like Snap Layouts to keep your workspace organised. In short, it’s a more reliable, modern OS built for today’s digital world. Can my PC upgrade to Windows 11? 🤔 One of the top questions recently is: Can my device install Windows 11? The answer is a bit more complex since Windows 11 has higher system requirements including: 64-bit processor (Intel 8th Gen or AMD Ryzen 2000 series and above). At least 4GB RAM. Minimum 64GB SSD storage. TPM 2.0 chip enabled. HD display (720p or higher, over 9”). *If you want to take advantage of new AI features, you’ll likely need more RAM and storage. Unsure if your PC meets these requirements? Don’t worry—Microsoft provides a free tool🔎 that automatically checks compatibility. And if your PC doesn’t qualify, we have a much better Plan B😉. Here’s a real, eco-friendly alternative: refurbished computers ♻️ If your PC isn’t compatible or you don’t want to spend the high cost of a new one, refurbished computers are your best friend. We offer devices with Windows 11 Pro installed, covered by warranty, support, and the reliability you need. Key benefits: ✅ Extends device life before ending up in landfill. ✅ Saves you up to 70% without compromising quality. ✅ Reduces environmental impact by better managing e-waste. ✅ Tested, clean, and backed by professional warranty. Choosing refurbished is not only smart but also protects your future 🌍. Prefer to stay longer with 🌐 Windows 10? Some users prefer to stick with Windows 10 a bit longer out of convenience or habit. If you choose this, here are quick tips to do so safely: 🔒 Keep your security software up to date (antivirus, firewall, etc). ☁️ Regularly back up important documents. 🚫 Avoid installing unofficial or questionable apps. 📎 Be cautious with links and downloads. While continuing with Windows 10 post-support isn’t recommended long term, it’s a valid short-term solution giving you some extra time to plan your upgrade or get a new device. Windows 10 end of support: Mandatory or an Opportunity? The end of support for Windows 10 is a significant milestone for anyone using a PC daily — but it can also be the perfect chance to make smarter technology buying decisions. Upgrade your device, give technology a second life, and find out why a refurbished device might be just what you need. At ECOPC, we believe that refurbished devices are the ideal choice for this transition and we’re here to help make your upgrade simple, safe, and fully tailored to your real needs. We’ll help you find the perfect Windows 11 ready PC to keep you running smoothly. Explore our options—your wallet and the planet 🌍 will thank you 🍃. 👉Contact us

Technology solution for educational centres: Back to School 2025

Back to school always marks a time of renewal and new expectations, and it’s vital that schools have an effective, sustainable, and affordable technology solution for educational centres. It’s not enough just to prepare books and materials; every centre must be equipped with the right digital tools to support learning, collaboration, and communication. Digitalisation in classrooms is advancing rapidly, and having reliable, up-to-date equipment is essential to guarantee educational quality. In this context, refurbished laptops with warranty have established themselves as the ideal alternative for smart and responsible upgrading or expansion of technological infrastructure. At ECOPC, we strive to understand the real needs of each educational cycle, which is why we show you why this option is highly valued today, also highlighting a selection of models that can help you get the most out of your investment. Why Choose Refurbished Computers as a Technology Solution for Your Educational Centre?

That’s why at ECOPC we offer only refurbished laptops with warranty, selected and restored by professionals to ensure optimal operation, comparable even to new devices. Each refurbished device undergoes inspections, testing and software updates (Noe, all our refurbished laptops come with Windows 11) before being shipped to you. This way, you can equip your classrooms and laboratories with technology capable of withstanding intense daily use, ensuring back to school goes smoothly. Real savings to drive investment and maximise educational impact Budgets at educational centres are always a challenge to manage. Opting for a solution based on affordable refurbished laptops offers significant savings compared to purchasing new technology equipment, as the advantage of refurbished computers is their excellent quality-price ratio, allowing centres to access advanced technology at a much lower cost than the newest equipment on the market. This enables more resources to be allocated to other key areas such as teacher training, acquiring educational resources, or infrastructure improvements. At ECOPC we offer flexible financing and equipment packs to make technological renewal as affordable as possible. Commitment to sustainability that educates and protects Beyond savings and quality, the technology solution for educational centres stands out for its sustainable approach. Reusing equipment helps reduce electronic waste, one of the most urgent environmental problems today.

This commitment fosters active ecological awareness in students, reinforcing the message that small decisions can make a big difference to the future of the planet. Specialised technical service and warranties tailored to your centre Reliable technology functioning in classrooms is key to avoiding disruption to the learning process. At ECOPC, all our refurbished laptops come with up to 3 years warranty, alongside specialised technical and after-sales support.

HP EliteBook 840 G7 a powerful, secure, and robust device that supports multitasking and advanced applications. Acer B246HYL 24″ LED IPS FHD with a Full HD screen, ergonomic design, and multiple connectivity options to suit various laptops and tasks.
