Particularly if you are waiting for a new ipad/air/pro; it sounds like they be announced on the 7th. Last time it took a day or two for items announced to show up for sale via the ultimate rewards portal.

I suspect it will be similar to previous offers:

10% extra is ~91% of the item price (Freedom cards with ultimate rewards)
25% extra is 80% of the item price (Ink cards with ultimate rewards, Sapphire Preferred, perhaps others)
50% extra is 66.7% of the item price (Sapphire Reserve, JP Morgan Chase Cards)

Prices are wildly overinflated relative to what you can buy straight out on BestBuy or other authorized merchants (at least on Airpods and MBA that I spot checked) - so the discount didn't even get to match let alone beat what you can just buy straight out without points.

They will be the prices the apple store has...or perhaps even just the retail price, so yes if it is available elsewhere cheaper, and particularly if you don't have a card giving 25-50% extra...it is certainly less of a deal or perhaps not a deal at all.

The new iPads will be a likely exception since they will likely be full retail everywhere.

This deal usually repeats Nov 1, and can often be good for the new phone and watches for the year.

Typically 14" MacBook M3 Pro 18gb ram, 512gb are on sale for $1799 + 6%(estimated) = $1907 in cash (originally $1999), where else I can get with CSR using 50% extra for $1,332 * 6% = $1,412 in point value, which is significantly cheaper than $1907

Any good sign up bonus for CSR? I tried checking and just saw the standard 60k points.
I've got like $1500 chase rewards points but only have the 10% offer with my chase card.

There is a little better one here: https://slickdeals.net/f/17461359-in-branch-chase-sapphire-preferred-85k-offer-chase-sapphire-reserve-75k-offer?src=SiteSearchV2Algo

It does have the $300 travel credit, which offsets the $550 annual fee. If you treat that the same as cash, then it's net $250/year for the annual fee.

Assuming by $1500, you mean 150k points:

50% Bonus: 150,000 / (100.0 * 100/(100 + 50)) = $2,250.00 Effective at the Apple Store
25% Bonus: 150,000 / (100.0 * 100/(100 + 25)) = $1,875.00 Effective at the Apple Store
10% Bonus: 150,000 / (100.0 * 100/(100 + 10)) = $1,650.00 Effective at the Apple Store

The new iPads and other products released today are available on the Ultimate Rewards site.

The $1299 13" iPad Pro would be a little under 87,000 points (plus tax) with a Reserve or JP Morgan Chase card with the 50% bonus.

Note that tax effectively gets the 50% bonus, too, since the price is reduced by the points.
