Buy a Mac or iPad for college. Get AirPods. You can also upgrade to wireless charging case for additional $40 or AirPods Pro for additional $90.

Last year the deal was different for Mac air (beats solo3) and Mac pro (beats studio3). this year they are offering same AirPods for any purchase of Mac or iPad.

Something is better than nothing. But, they're stepping down the value of the freebie.
Airpods - free
Airpods with wireless charging case -$40
Airpod pros- $90
Bought a Mac in 2006 - do you think they will honor this?

I wonder if this will eventually be offered if you buy through authorized resellers like microcenter or best buy.

Ahhh, I've been needing a new ipad but I really don't need the extra power of the Air. Is it really worth getting over the standard model?

Will university bookstores eventually offer this too? Prefer to buy there since there is no tax.

It's not offered for the MacBook Air right? Just bought an air a week ago and would hate to have missed out

Edit--it is.... Damn. Anyone had success for getting them to honor it after the fact?
