It's cheaper if you just go to the education store on Apple.com. They don't require verification at all.
Pro 100%. Once you go 120mhz, 60Hz is jarring and you're not saving much. You paid good money, enjoy it as in the end, most of us using it to watch Netflix, surf, and play games. Lol


Unless you're the 0.5% who actually do real video work.
128gb as the base model. Apple is finally turning the corner.

Need some opinions. I recently bought the 2022 Pro 11 for $650 from Costco recent deal. Should I return it in place for this? Put yourself in my position.

Keep it. I waited on picking that up because the sale ended the day before the new iPads were announced. Regretting it now.

Any idea how long this will last? I want to price match with Best Buy and pick it up in-store, but it's not available in the Best Buy store yet.
The nearest Costco to me is almost 2 hours drive.

Should I wait until it's available in-store and price match? or by the time it's available in store the deal would be gone?

Any thoughts?

No, they don't ... just order online and get it delivered or pick it up in store; nothing is verified.

USA.

Thumbs up. $20 less via Apple Edu store. Anyone can just jump on the store and order.

I'm in the same boat. Missed the costco deal somehow, and now I can't get myself to buy the Air since since I already have the 2nd gen apple pencil, and the new air is incompatible. Hoping the deal will come around at Costco, or somebody else will clear out their stock for cheap. Or I'll keep an eye out for refurbs on Apple store, but those are hard to come by.

So no deals on the older models from Costco? I was expecting that, surprised to see the discount on the newer ones so quickly.

13" is $50 less. I just can't bring myself to ditch my iPad Air 4 quite yet. I want to. But my conscience is stopping me. It does everything I want it to do, which is mostly just web browsing and media consumption.

I don't see $50 less. After second check, I still see $20 less.

Costco: $770.
Apple: $750.

Which is not what you see?

M1 Pro still working great...no plans to change. Apple pricing, plus the need to buy a new keyboard to even work (even if I keep the same 11" form factor I have now) adds $300! Frown.

My guy, I see you on all these TV, tablet and big ticket items threads. What do you do for work?
