The laptop's production date is fresh.

Good afternoon, I need your help. I want to purchase a Macbook Air M1 with Part No. MGN63RU/A. However, there is no activation information available on the official website using the serial number. The production date on the box is 06/2025. I do not want to purchase a refurbished laptop.

You won't find that information anywhere until you activate the Mac.


I don't quite understand your question though. If you want to purchase a Mac, purchase it directly from Apple, here: Mac - Apple.


Apple is also the only source for refurbished Macs. Purchase them here: Refurbished Mac Deals - Apple.


The production date on the box is 06/2025


What box? That is not consistent with a new Mac. The M1 MacBook Air has been out of production for over a year. Whatever you are considering buying is not new.

I was able to determine that Mac's AppleCare eligibility from the serial number shown on the box using View Coverage - AppleCare & Warranty and from all indications it's genuine. Just bear in mind I am in the US and the resources available to you may not be the same.


That Mac was discontinued for sale in the US in March, 2024. If Apple kept producing them for other markets I would have no way to determine that information.

The laptop's production date is fresh.
