At this time of the year, Apple has started its annual new semester promotion. Purchasing some Apple products with educational discounts not only offers discounts, but also gives away hardware products. This is another time for many people to make money.
However, it is worth noting that people like Haonan who have graduated for many years will not be able to enjoy it. Mainly students from current and newly admitted colleges and universities, as well as teachers and staff of all levels can participate.
Another way to think about it is if your family members have college students, master's or doctoral students, etc., or have friends who are teachers or employees in school, you can participate in this event and help out with a meal.
It is worth noting that there are not many products this time, mainly including the iPad series on sale on the official website, mainly Air and Pro. The entry-level version does not enjoy this event, as well as MacBook Air and Pro series, as well as imac products.
It is impossible to participate in educational discounts for iPhones with relatively high sales. They are basically relatively unpopular products with average sales. It is just a kind of Apple marketing with a little knowledge.
Whether it is cost-effective or not depends on the price. Take iPad Air as an example. The official website is 4399 yuan, and the education discount is 3999 yuan. It is 400 yuan cheaper. It feels average because third-party platforms can also buy it at this price, but it also comes with a 999 yuan AirPods. 2 headphones are a bit more fragrant, and you can also pay the price difference to buy AirPods Pro. If you are buying a computer,
can save you about 800 yuan, which seems more cost-effective. It still comes with headphones, but the prices on third-party platforms are also very good!
Like the MacBook Air M1 chip, the education discount is 7,199 yuan, and the headphones are sold for 600 yuan after being given away. The actual purchase price is about 6,600 yuan.
Then you will be surprised to find that you can actually buy it on other platforms at this price. Doesn’t it feel good at once?
So Haonan suggested:
The education discount on Apple’s official website seems to be a good deal. You can ask a friend to help you verify your identity information to buy the product, and then sell the free headphones second-hand. After a lot of trouble, you find out that the price on the third-party platform is actually You can buy it, and it may be more cost-effective. Then you invite the friend who helped you to have a meal. Maybe you just want to treat your friend to dinner and increase friendship.
Therefore, there is no need for you to be tempted by Apple's superficial promotions. In fact, the benefits are very average. If you want to save money, it is actually the most economical not to buy it, right?
