Customers are saying

Customers commend the refurbished EliteDesk 800 G3 for its strong performance, competitive price, and the speed provided by its SSD. Many appreciate its compact size and the inclusion of accessories. However, a significant number of customers point out a discrepancy in the product description regarding the lack of an HDMI port, which was advertised but not included. The absence of this port is a recurring negative comment.

    Using it for a few weeks now... Great choice, much better than paying full price! Thankful for the option of a fully refurbished Joy Systems CPU. It fits exactly what I was needing, even compact/smaller than I had hoped!

    Thank you Joy Systems for a perfectly refurbished PC. I cannot thank you enough. My PC came with everything I needed to get it up and going. It even included helpful instructions and a pamphlet of FAQ. I was able to get a high quality, fast PC at a fraction of the cost. I have never been able to work so quickly! Thanks again!

    This unit is quick and quiet but before I could get it going Microsoft had to parade all of its 'special' aps and VPN stuff. Then MS got ticked off becuase I didn't buy anything and I decided to stick with Google Chrome. MS Sucks!

    Bought this tower for a new desktop setup and it works great. Setting it up was very easy and it arrived very quickly with basic free shipping. I didn't want to spend big bucks on a tower that was just being used for simple daily tasks and I browsed the Best Buy refurbished site and they had many options depending on what you're wanting/needing, Great price and quality all in all. 10/10 would reccomend!

    Absolutely impressed with the refurbished HP EliteDesk 800 G3! It offers excellent performance at a fraction of the cost of a new PC.

Highly recommend this for anyone looking for reliable performance on a budget!

    I recently purchased the HP Refurbished EliteDesk 800 G3 Desktop with Intel Core i7, 16GB Memory, and 512GB SSD, and I couldn't be more impressed. From the moment I powered it on, I knew I made the right choice. First off, the performance is exceptional. The Intel Core i7 processor coupled with 16GB of memory ensures that even the most demanding tasks run smoothly and efficiently. Whether I'm multitasking between numerous applications or running intensive software, this desktop handles it all effortlessly. The 512GB SSD provides ample storage space for all my files, programs, and media while also significantly boosting the system's overall speed and responsiveness. Boot-up times are lightning-fast, and applications launch in the blink of an eye. Despite being refurbished, the EliteDesk 800 G3 looks and feels brand new. Best Buy has done an excellent job refurbishing it to pristine condition, and I haven't encountered any issues whatsoever. It's sleek, stylish, and fits seamlessly into my workspace. I also appreciate the variety of ports and connectivity options available, allowing me to connect all my peripherals and devices without any hassle. Plus, the compact design saves valuable desk space without compromising on performance or functionality. Overall, I highly recommend the HP Refurbished EliteDesk 800 G3 Desktop to anyone in need of a powerful and reliable workstation. With its top-notch performance, generous storage, and sleek design, it's truly a five-star product.

    I recently purchased a refurbished HP 800 G3 desktop from JoyLabs, and I couldn't be happier with the performance and overall value. As someone who works in IT desktop support, I rely heavily on reliable and efficient hardware, and this machine has exceeded my expectations.

    I love these sort of retro business class mini computers that sit directly on top of a desk and can put a monitor on top of it, or my morning coffee xD. The i7 processor is still plenty powerful and 500Gb SSD is quiet. It has lots of USB ports, and HP has nice support software's that can be installed to keep things running well or analyzed. Overall very happy and this is being used by my teenage daughter in her room for some school and light gaming.

    Perfect for my needs and small so I can hide it in a customer office desk I built for my house. Paired with 2-24" monitors. Very fast and snappy.

    I plugged this unit in and because it has a SSD, it fired up and loaded the setup very quick. The one thing I haven't figured out yet was how to connect this unit wirelessly to my network. It hasn't been fully tweaked yet but when I fully load the apps and other hardware (printers, speakers) I will write another review.

    After stumbling around trying to buy a refurbished desktop, I finally chose to deal with Best Buy and Joy Systems. I received a great looking refurbished HP 800 G3-SFF Desktop. I was immediately impressed with the shipping wrappings as the desktop and accessories look like brand new items. The startup of the desktop was as easy as I have ever experienced. The desktop performs faster than I had expected. I highly recommend Best Buy and Joy Systems.

    I thought since my other computer was at least 3 years old i was getting not just a newer one but a faster one. Not what i got. It's slower and if i put it to sleep i usually have to restart it to get it to connect to the internet. I have ethernet connection that it says is bad when i troubleshoot it. I am considering returning it because i have a problem with calling joy systems because of their minimal hours. I am really disappointed with this purchase. The cd/dvd drive seems real cheap to me but i don't use it often so it's not really a problem.

    Awesome refurbished product by JoySystems! Packaging was seamless and everything was bundled together nicely. The product itself even came with labels marking when it was inspected and who performed the inspection. JoySystems definitely takes the worry out of ordering refurbished products. Highly recommend!
