On March 2nd, exciting news about the iPhone surged in popularity once more. For just 3499 yuan, you can purchase an iPhone on the official Apple website. Doesn’t that make your heart race?

Recently, Apple’s significant discounts on iPhones caused a stir and sparked discussions among netizens. Many users noticed that Apple’s China website is currently offering a total of 5 iPhone series models.

To be specific, the iPhones currently available on Apple’s China website include the iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15, iPhone 14, iPhone 13, and iPhone SE, with prices ranging from over 3000 to over 10,000 yuan. The least expensive model is the iPhone SE 64GB, priced at 3499 yuan.

This has stirred up discussions among netizens. In this day and age, being able to purchase a 64GB iPhone SE for 3499 yuan is truly heartwarming.

Some netizens also criticized Apple, calling it a pure intellectual tax. With a budget of over 3000 yuan, why would anyone choose to buy this? Shouldn’t we be more discerning even when buying domestic products? Would you spend over 3000 yuan on this item?

According to Apple’s financial report for the first quarter of the 2024 fiscal year, the revenue from the Greater China region was 20.8 billion US dollars (approximately 149.344 billion yuan), showing a 13% decrease compared to the same period last year when it was 23.9 billion US dollars.

IDC analyst Will Wong stated, “The pressure mainly comes from other Android manufacturers, as we have seen Apple’s revenue drop by about 10% this month compared to the previous year, while Huawei experienced a three-digit growth during the same period.”
