In this promotional photo from Apple, the headphones are more expensive than the computer.

Okay, I am actually wrong here: it’s only cheaper with educational discount, and this person is not at school. I misunderstood what educational discount means.

Edit: Although I’m now being told there are ways she could get that discount for a personal laptop, too, through her school?

@mwichary With the update to AirPods Max 2 the price has gone up slightly here in Canada to C$799, exactly the same as the base Neo.

(The Neo is C$679/$849 here with the education discount, available to teachers and post-secondary students and their parents — but as @colinstu noted, my niece was never asked for verification of her university status when she bought her Air back in '24)
