Students and parents of students should remember that Best Buy's Student Deals provide an extra $50 off Mac notebooks, further lowering the savings seen in today's MacBook Pro sale.
iPhone X - Save $100 with qualified activation on installment plan with AT&T, Verizon, or Sprint
MacBook Pro - Save $250–300 on select models / as low as $1499.99 with Student Deals
The retailer also has a few other deals that are extending beyond today, including the chance for customers to get a minimum $125 gift card when trading in select iPad models (in-store only, ends May 5, 2018). Specifically, you'll get the gift card when you trade in a working iPad mini 2 (with Retina display), mini 3, mini 4, Air, Air 2, iPad Pro, or fifth-generation iPad. This makes a nice companion deal for anyone upgrading to Apple's new sixth-generation iPad.
Additionally, there are other configurations of the MacBook Pro that will see a sale price of $200 off ($250 for students and parents of students) extend into this upcoming week, ending Saturday, April 7.

An apparent unboxing video for an unannounced iPad Pro with the M5 chip was uploaded to YouTube today by Russian channel Wylsacom.

Apple's two big yearly events, WWDC and the iPhone launch, are done and over with, but there are still some new products that we're expecting to see before the end of the year.
