Apple just updated the 2018 MacBook Pro, but we are still waiting for a 2018 MacBook release date and to learn about the potential 2018 MacBook Air.
Best Buy offers $50 off the iPad Pro for students who sign up and download a coupon. The iPad Pro isn’t on sale any more than normal, so you may want to wait and stack the coupon onto a discount. If you need to pick up an iPad Pro, this is still a great buy. Keep in mind there will likely be a 2018 iPad Pro announced in September.
You can also save $200 on the iPhone 7, iPhone 7 Plus, iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus at Best Buy as part of this event. Keep in mind Apple is poised to announce new iPhones next month alongside iOS 12.
Other deals include up to 30% off certified refurbished Apple items. This includes AirPods for $135.99, which is a $24 discount. Keep in mind we could see AirPods 2 in a month.
Skip the refurbished Apple Watch deals at Best Buy and wait for the Apple Watch 4, or bigger deals.
Buy the 2018 MacBook Pro for a Better Display | ||||||||||||
 | ||||||||||||
With the 2018 MacBook Pro Apple upgrades the display by bringing over technology from the iPad Pro and iPhone X. The new MacBook Pro display features a True Tone Display. This means the MacBook Pro display automatically adjusts the white balance of the screen based on the light you are in. This translates into a better looking display with whites that are more realistic and ultimately a much better looking display. If you have an iPad Pro or the iPhone X, you can see this technology in person and see if it will make a difference to you. It's one of the more compelling reasons for me to upgrade to the 2018 MacBook Pro from my 2016 model. | ||||||||||||
