Which version of iPhone 8 / 8plus is the cheapest to buy
4hw.org: in September this year, Apple released a new iPhone, among which the iPhone 8 / 8 plus has started to be reserved for sale. This year's new iPhone is the most expensive iPhone in the history. Even the 'cheapest' iPhone 8 costs as much as 5888. Many friends who have purchase intention will choose the cheaper version. Let's take a look at the purchase strategy of iPhone 8!
Objectively speaking, due to the high selling price of the Bank of China, the price advantages of the American version, Japanese version and Hong Kong version are more obvious this time. However, there are advantages and disadvantages in everything. Before starting with the non bank of China Version, the author will talk about their disadvantages according to the past experience.
First of all, you need to pay more time and energy cost to purchase the non-state-owned version of the machine, including the selection of reliable purchasing agents, long delivery time and the risk of being taxed in the customs. Even if there are familiar friends abroad to help you, it's embarrassing not to talk about the debt, if there is a problem, it's embarrassing not to talk about it.
Of course, what you need to worry about is the warranty problem in the later period. At present, the choice of more American and Japanese versions of machines is clearly not warranted in China, which means that once there is a quality problem in the later period, you need to pay for it at your own expense, but I think you should know how much Apple's out of warranty maintenance costs are exaggerated. Even for the Hong Kong / Macao models that can be guaranteed in mainland China, they only support the maintenance of Apple stores. The first tier cities are fine. What about the second, third and fourth tier cities without Apple stores?
Therefore, the Bank of China is not necessarily without advantages. More convenient purchase experience and more thoughtful after-sales service are all what the foreign version of the machine lacks. As for the price, many domestic mainstream sales channels will launch some preferential activities, which is not much worse than the foreign version.
It may be more cost-effective than the Hong Kong version
Based on my experience in purchasing iPhone 6plus, I usually go to Jingdong to buy 3C at ordinary times. The time cost of selection is low and the quality of products is guaranteed. The most important thing is that every year when Apple launches a new machine, Jingdong Baitiao will have a series of activities, such as interest free installment, activity gifts, coupons and red packets. For this year's activities, the research synchronization is as follows:
If the amount of white note is enough, old users can enjoy up to 24 periods of installment purchase service, which is less than 10 yuan per day on average after accounting; if the amount of white note is insufficient, they can also participate in the limited time withdrawal lottery, which is a great chance to get the exclusive amount of new Apple mobile phones, after all, e-commerce prefers you to buy;
New users of Baitiao can enjoy 12 interest free installments of Apple products when they open Baitiao. For 64giphone8, the official price is 5888 yuan, and only 491 yuan is needed every month. There is no interest. There should be no too much pressure for the public.
Support for trade in
In addition, in view of the fact that many old versions of apple powder mobile phones can still be used normally and the high cost of obsolescence, JD also has the activity of replacing old phones with new ones, so we choose to use the old phones as the cash to purchase new ones.
For example, if the user used to be a 7plus user, he can exchange up to 7455 yuan of new phone purchase price with the original mobile phone, enough to cover the purchase cost of 64g iPhone 8, and then calculate by 3605 yuan of average recovery price, the Apple fans can replace the new phone at 2283 yuan. According to the 12 period interest free qualification of new users, the replacement of new machines can be completed only by paying 190 yuan per month through the old machine recycling activity.
Finally, I'd like to remind you to make an appointment in Jingdong as soon as possible before September 22, and also have the opportunity to get the new machine as soon as possible as the official, and participate in the old machine replacement and 12 interest free promotions, which can only help you here.
