Will it do what I need?
The 16” Intel i7 (2019) Is Great For
Up to two external 6K displays, or four external 4K displays
Connect Up To Four 4K Displays
Four Thunderbolt 3 ports drive up to two 6K or four 4K external displays at once — a trading desk, a dev setup or a studio from one laptop, which makes this model excellent for hardcore multitaskers.
Fun fact: it took the Max chips to match this. The Apple Silicon M1 Pro and M2 Pro drive two external displays; you need an M1 Max or later Max to reach four.

The short version: next-day delivery on most orders, 14 days to change your mind, a 12-month hardware warranty, and a real human on WhatsApp if you're ever unsure. Everything below applies to UK orders only — outside the UK, message us before ordering.
Delivery
MacBooks & laptops — DPD Next Day, Before 12
Most orders ship with DPD Next Day (Before 12) — so most Macs arrive before noon the next working day. DPD delivers on weekdays; orders placed over the weekend head out on Monday.
iMacs — DHL Express Next Day
iMacs ship with DHL Express Next Day. Order before 1pm and your iMac can arrive the next working day — though in general, allow 1 working day of handling time for iMacs, as they take longer to pack safely.
Returns — 14 days, always
Every order comes with our standard 14-day return policy.
If in doubt or unsure what to buy — don't buy. Reach out first and have a chat with us on WhatsApp: +44 7477 143031 (that's Denis), or email support@ta1macstore.co.uk. We'd much rather help you pick the right Mac than have you guess — and whatever you choose, the 14 days is always there.
Returning a MacBook or laptop
We'll send you a DPD return label at no cost to you and book a collection from your doorstep. Just hand the Mac to the DPD driver, keep the collection slip they give you, and we deal with everything else.
Returning an iMac
For iMacs, return shipping is at your cost — typically £35 for an insured DHL return. But get in touch anyway and we'll arrange the collection and handle all the logistics for you.
Please keep the packaging
Hold on to the original box and packaging, at least until you're sure you're keeping your Mac. Getting it back to us securely packed is your responsibility — so you'll need a sturdy box.
Faulty item? We handle everything.
If your Mac develops a genuine fault, that's on us — we'll cover the return, the repair or replacement, all of it.
Our defect rate is very, very low: we refurbish with original Apple displays and original Apple parts (batteries are the one exception — those are model-specific). But if anything does go wrong — say the Mac won't turn on — and it's a hardware issue rather than accidental damage, we'll cover a repair or replacement under our 12-month return-to-base (RTB) hardware warranty.
Accidental damage — a dropped Mac, a cracked screen, a spilled drink — isn't covered by the warranty. But don't disappear on us: we're Mac refurbishment specialists, so we'll do our best to help and keep out-of-warranty repair prices low. Our customers are like our community — we do our best to look after each other.

Every TA1 Mac is graded against the criteria below, fully tested and battery-verified. Read the full grading guide here.
Fully Working & Battery >=85% <400cycles.
Excellent Condition
Like New - May have one or two very faint hairline scratches, only visible under direct light — nothing visible after 30cm. Screen is clean with no marks.
(Imagine someone bought this machine and used it carefully for less than a month.)
Fully Working & Battery >=85% <400cycles.
Good Condition
Light signs of use — a couple of small scratches or scuffs on the casing visible after 30cm, but no dents.
Screen again perfect - may have a little tiny scratch but all screen marks are invisible when the display is on.
(Imagine someone bought this machine and used it for a couple of months.)
Fully Working & Battery >=85% <400cycles.
Fair Condition
Noticeable scratches, scuffs, or light dents on the casing.
Screen is excellent also - may have the odd tiny scratch but all marks invisible when the display is on.
(Imagine a student bought this machine and used it daily for a year or so.)
Operating System
macOS Tahoe. ✅
macOS 26 Tahoe brings the new Liquid Glass design, a much smarter Spotlight, the Phone app on your Mac and live iPhone activities in the menu bar. This 16-inch 2019 is one of only two Intel MacBook Pros that run it — Tahoe is the final macOS generation for Intel Macs, and it still dual-boots Windows via Boot Camp. Apple Intelligence features need an Apple Silicon Mac.
