Buying to return it after getting a good feel of the latest tech is a nice move if you have the money.
Probably awful for the planet in most situations though. It’s unsure what they’ll do with the products, especially when they’re not available refurbished
Why can't they sell them refurbished?
They can, Apple just doesn't
Apple sells refurbs. The headset hasn't even been out two weeks yet. Give it time.
It's a sham more than a real program. They only refurbish current and last generation devices while recycling older ones. It's anti-Apple brand to sell older gen stuff.
Hell, it can be a nice move if you have the credit limit.
