The refurbished laptop market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $7.24 billion in 2023 to $7.73 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.7%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to several factors. These include the increasing prices of new devices, the growth of e-commerce platforms facilitating refurbished product sales, heightened awareness of environmental sustainability leading to preference for refurbished products, economic factors driving consumers towards more cost-effective options, efficient refurbishment processes ensuring quality standards, and the growing acceptance and trust in refurbished products among consumers.

The refurbished laptop market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $10.15 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to several factors. These include the continued growth of e-waste, which drives the demand for sustainable alternatives such as refurbished laptops. Additionally, the adoption of circular economy principles and the expansion of online platforms and marketplaces contribute to the growth of the refurbished laptop market. Major trends expected in the forecast period encompass an emphasis on sustainability, a rising demand for affordable computing solutions, technological advancements in refurbishment processes, the growth of e-commerce, corporate sustainability initiatives, government regulations, consumer confidence in refurbished products, education and awareness campaigns promoting sustainability, product innovation, and the emergence of new markets.

The surge in e-waste production is poised to drive the growth of the refurbished laptop market in the upcoming forecast period. E-waste encompasses discarded electronic devices and equipment, posing significant environmental and health hazards if not properly managed or recycled. Refurbished laptops play a crucial role in mitigating e-waste by extending the lifespan of electronic devices and reducing the volume of discarded electronics. For instance, a report published by the United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR), a Switzerland-based agency dedicated to supporting global sustainable development goals, revealed that global e-waste production soared to a record high of 62 million metric tons in 2022 (Mt), marking an 82% increase from 2010 levels. It is projected to further escalate to 82 million metric tons by 2030, representing a 32% increase. Consequently, the mounting e-waste will act as a catalyst for the growth of the refurbished laptop market.

Key players in the refurbished laptop market are strategically launching refurbished laptop programs to cater to the surging demand for sustainable and cost-effective computing solutions. These programs typically involve refurbishment companies or organizations that accept old laptops, repair and upgrade them as needed, and subsequently resell or donate them to individuals, businesses, or communities. For instance, in October 2023, HP Inc., a US-based information technology company, initiated the refurbished laptops program to facilitate affordable access to laptops. The program aims to provide cost-effective and reliable technology access, particularly targeting low- and moderate-income learners. HP intends to offer affordable laptops to students, micro and small businesses, and freelancers through certified partners, who will retail the refurbished HP PCs to end consumers and businesses.

In August 2023, Flipkart Private Limited, an India-based e-commerce company, acquired Yaantra for an undisclosed sum. This strategic acquisition aligns with Flipkart's objective of establishing a comprehensive service ecosystem catering to the entire lifecycle of laptops and smartphones. It aims to broaden access to affordable refurbished laptops and smartphones, thereby enhancing the overall convenience and value proposition for end consumers. Yaantra, an India-based electronics reselling company specializing in refurbished laptops, brings valuable expertise and resources to bolster Flipkart's position in the refurbished laptop market.
