However, a representative from Tianyin Holdings stated that they have not received any official price reduction notification from Apple, emphasizing that Apple typically does not issue such notifications [1]. Group 1 - Apple products, including smartphones and accessories, are subject to price fluctuations based on market demand, rather than fixed official pricing [1]. - The pricing of Apple products is dynamic, with historical examples showing that the price of a model can decrease significantly over time, such as a model priced at 12000 yuan at launch potentially dropping to 8000-9000 yuan by the next product release cycle [1]. - The absence of a formal price reduction process is common in Apple's pricing strategy, as the company operates on a futures pricing model where prices can vary daily [1].
