According to the South China Morning Post, Apple retailers in China are offering steep iPhone 11 discounts to spur demand.
Apple fans in China can now pick up an iPhone for just US$700 on some ecommerce sites. That might be on par with the starting price in the U.S., but it’s a huge discount for China, notes the South China Morning Post.
For example, at JD.com, the 64GB version of the basic iPhone 11 now costs 4,999 yuan (US$708), 500 yuan (US$70) cheaper than the original price. The more expensive iPhone 11 Pro has an even steeper price cut that shaves off 1,200 yuan (US$170). And the top-tier iPhone 11 Pro Max is selling for a whopping 1,600 yuan (US$227) off.
There are similar bargains at Sunning and Guomei. However, Apple hasn’t made any price reductions at its online store.
