Apple has always been one of the companies that give student discounts for each of the products they sell be it Macbook Air or the iPad or the iPad Air. It is obvious that the Macbook Pro and the iPad Pro are not targeted towards students so such a discount will be rare on them. Coming to the student discounts, we also see a lot of people take advantage of the same because it is generally 100 bucks off your purchase which is great for someone who doesn’t have a lot to spend on.
However, Apple is throwing in a very sweet offer for students apart from the student discount which is hard to resist for almost everyone. In its latest “Back to School 2020” promotions, Apple is offering free AirPods for students who purchase an iPad Air or Macbook Air. While we don’t exactly know when the schools will restart due to the Covid-19 situation, it is definitely a way for Apple to boost its sales.
After the student discount on iPad Air and Macbook Air, students “can get second-generation AirPods when purchasing the $899 MacBook Air or $479 iPad Air” for free as per TheVerge’s report. Another point worth noting is that you can even upgrade your order to get AirPods 2nd generation with wireless charging case by adding $40 to your order. You can even get the AirPods Pro for an extra $90 which are currently the best-in-class AirPods out there and generally sell for $249.
There are discounts on almost the entire Apple lineup of products for students but we found this free AirPods deal to be the best which is the reason why we thought of sharing it with you. It is cool that Apple is thinking of students other than their educational discounts but it is also a way to get students into the entire ecosystem of products so that they can upgrade to a better product down the line.
