Although sales are rare in the United States, if not anymore, Apple or local resellers regularly offer discounts on the iPhone in China. This will be due to the fact that iPhone sales will continue to decline in the country, as well as because in China there are key shopping seasons, including 618 in June.
In anticipation of the 618 purchases of the 618 purchases this year, Reuters reports that the two largest online resollers of China have issued advertising offers on the iPhone 16 line. Such sales are currently an annual device in China, but, this time, discounts are especially high.
sites JD.com & mdash; which in 2021 sold $ 15.6 million $ 13 in the first two seconds on sale & mdash; and Alibaba ' S Tmall MarketPlace. There are different offers in two stores, but they amount to about $ 350 from the retail price.
For comparison, the 618 festival in 2024 saw discounts up to 180 dollars. In the same year, a combination of discounts and related proposals to exchange inserts in accordance with possible $ 225 from the price of iPhone on the day of single games in China.
it is unclear whether the discounts will last up to all 618, which takes place from June 1, 2025 to June 18, 2025. It is also not clear whether it is an apple or reseller that lag behind the price.
But now JD.com is selling the iPhone 168 GB IPhone 16 for about $ 758, or about $ 350 below the usual requested price. According to coincidence, he also sells the iPhone 16,256 GB at the same price as about 212 dollars below the retail price.
Tmall MarketPlace Alibiba sells 128 GB of iPhone 16 Pro for fractionally more than $ 763. Nevertheless, this discount requires customers to use coupons, some of which, as reported, include state subsidies.
During the last call of Apple, General Director Tim Cook explained that in general, if the product costs more than about $ 830, it has no right to Chinese subsidies. However, Cook raised subsidies as a factor in Apple iPhone sales in China.
“I really think that the subsidies [had] a beneficial effect on the results,” he said. “It is difficult to evaluate with accuracy, you know how many, but I think it was positive.”
