While many students are soaking up their summer holidays, the new school year creeps up. With it comes a list of new school supplies and, more often than not, it includes some big-ticket tech items like laptops and tablets.
Some of the best and arguably most popular of these are Apple’s MacBooks and iPads. So whether you’re heading back to school or university and keen on getting yourself or your child one of these coveted products, we’re here to help you find a bargain.
While you’ll be hard pressed to find a discount at Apple directly, there are back-to-school deals to check out on Apple AU’s Education site. You can save on MacBooks, iPads and more with education pricing, and during the promo period between January 4 and March 13, 2024, you’ll receive an Apple gift card up to AU$240 if you make a qualifying purchase.
We’ve rounded up our top picks of the best back-to-school Apple products and accessories on offer, and other great deals available now at other retailers.
