Apple’s yearly Back to School sale is now live in the United States, India and other countries. As part of the deal, eligible students and teachers can get Macs and iPads on education pricing, along with an accessory worth up to $179.
Unlike the last few years, Apple will not bundle a gift card with your purchase. Instead, it will bundle a free accessory, ranging from the Magic Keyboard to AirPods 4 with ANC.
Get a free Apple accessory with your new Mac or iPad
Apple is bundling a free AirPods 4, though you can pick any other accessory of the same value or upgrade to a more expensive one by paying extra. So, you can get the Apple Pencil, Magic Keyboard, or AirPods Pro 2 with your iPad or Mac purchase.
With the iPad, Apple will bundle an accessory worth $129 for free. This jumps to $179 with MacBooks. For example, you can get either the Apple Pencil Pro or AirPods 4 for free with the 11″ iPad Pro with M4 chip. You can pay $119-$129 extra to upgrade to the AirPods 4 with ANC, Magic Keyboard or the AirPods Pro 2.
