Apple equipment is becoming more and more difficult to buy every year. Prices constantly show that there are now some problems with the dollar due to problems, which is why many sellers in Russia are either inflating prices or temporarily suspending sales.
In retail chains, gadgets work noticeably later, even longer than they actually cost. And if you try to order it yourself, you may have problems with customs and payment. In this situation, we suggest paying attention to the CDEK.Shopping service.
We found three new devices that are for sale cheaper than in RussiaThey also reach right to the door.
What is SDEK.Shopping. Advantages and disadvantages
SDEK.Shopping is a platform for ordering goods from abroad. She doesn’t sell anything herself, this is not a marketplace. Essentially, the service is an intermediary between the foreign store and the buyer.
In the product catalog above 4.1 million offers from more than 45 thousand foreign brands. There is everything here: from electronics to clothes, shoes and even dietary supplements. Representatives from 16 countries work, including the USA, China, UAE, Turkey, Europe and others.
Pros:
► original products
► access to brands that have left Russia
► early access to new products
► collections and models that have never existed in Russia
► access to international sales
► payment with additional cards
► method of choice: courier delivery to your door or to the nearest SDEK order pick-up point.
If the catalog does not contain the product you need, you can use the “Request for Purchase”. It allows you to request a specific product, for example, a limited-edition smartphone for China, and it will be delivered to you.
Of the minuses:
► Delivery on average takes 2-4 weeks, sometimes a little longer: it depends on the manufacturer, the characteristics of transportation in the country and customs control.
How to order through CDEK.Shopping
It’s simple. You select the desired product, add it to the cart, indicate your full name, email and telephone number, and also indicate the address or pickup point.
After this, you provide your passport details for customs declaration (this is a mandatory procedure when delivering from abroad) and pay by card or through SBP for the goods and customs duties.
Then the product will appear in your personal account, all you have to do is wait for it. The cost of the paid goods is final and does not change even when the exchange rate is changed.
As I said above, we found three top-end devices that you can order right now at a great price.
1. iPad Air 2024
This is an 11-inch 1TB model with Wi-Fi + Cellular. That is, you can insert an eSIM into it.
The tablet has an M2 processor, which is 50% faster than the latest M1 model. The camera is now located in the side frame, like in a regular iPad.
The sound of the speakers has improved – there is twice as much bass. Alas, ProMotion never appeared, but the LED itself is still one of the best LCD displays on the market.
The option with 1 TB of memory is generally enough for all tasks, and you will never worry about running out of space.
▶︎ Order 131,752 rubles* (everywhere from 140 thousand rubles)
*price may change
2. Mac mini (2023)
A gadget that can become your entry ticket to the world of Apple computers.
Compared to the MacBook Air M2, the Mac mini M2 maintains performance for longer without throttling. Firstly, it has a fan inside. Secondly, there is a lot of free space in its body, which inevitably occurs at the heat level.
We did not offer an 8 GB model; it is better to immediately take it with a reserve of at least 16 GB. The built-in memory of 256 GB is enough for comfortable work with the phone, but you can take even more.
There are also two Thunderbolt 4/USB-C ports. M2 chip – two video cards with FHD development or one at 6K/60 Hz.
▶︎ Order for 75,930 rubles* (everywhere from 85 thousand rubles)
*price may change
3. iPhone 15, 256 GB
What else can I say? This is an iPhone from the latest line. Not everyone needs the Pro version, which is not so different from the conditions.
A USB-C port appeared here for the first time, so the smartphone became a little more versatile. Also, the iPhone 15 received a “notch” from the iPhone 14 Pro, which will become even more useful with the release of iOS 18. Now everyone can take advantage of the advanced Dynamic Island, this is an even less outstanding “notch” figure.
For the first time, the “basic” model featured a 48 MP main camera, also from the Pro line. The matte back glass from the Pro series is now available on the regular iPhone. It is extremely difficult to scratch it even intentionally.
Finally, there is an external A16 Bionic chip and 6 GB of RAM. The highest results in all benchmarks, huge FPS in any installed games.
▶︎ Order for 76,448 rubles* (everywhere from 85 thousand rubles)
*price may change
try it, it’s a convenient service
All you need to do in SDEK.Shopping is place an order. The remaining questions remain the service itself.
The prices are reasonable, they work fairly quickly, and there is a large selection of products. All this is available now. In general, order profitably.
