School isn't even fully done for many high school seniors and college students, but Apple's already released its back-to-school deal [1] for the year. Buy any eligible Mac, iPad, or iPhone product, and you'll get a free specific pair of Beats by Dre headphones.
The promotion, which starts June 2 and ends on Sept. 5, focuses on very specific products. If you buy an iMac, MacBook, MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, or Mac Pro, you'll get a pair of Beats Solo2 wireless headphones [2]. If you buy an iPad Pro, iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPhone 6S, or iPhone 6S Plus, you'll receive a pair of Powerbeats2 wireless headphones [3]. If you choose to buy an iPhone or iPad and want the Beats Solo2 wireless headphones, Apple will give you a credit of $199.95. You'll then have to pay the remaining balance of $100 to fully purchase the headphones.
As always, you need to buy the eligible products via the Apple Education store online [4], at Apple, or at authorized campus stores. Also, it's not just students who can qualify for the discount — educators and parents of students can also participate.
Though it's not the first year Apple's included wireless headphones in its back-to-school promotion, it might be another sign that the next iPhone [5] will come without a headphone jack.
