1, Apple's retail store (so-called direct store), Apple's official store in the mainland, there are only two in Beijing and two in Shanghai, and only these four retail stores can be found in official website. In May this year, Apple announced that it would open its fifth store in Shanghai.

2, Apple authorized dealers: This kind of store is very common in all parts of the country, the more famous are Yinglong Brilliance, Cool Motion and so on. Some hypermarkets in Suning and Gome will also have Apple authorized booths, and official website can search for authorized dealers.

The price of regular authorized dealers is mainly in official website, and occasionally it is lower than 10%.

3. Apple campus distributors: Apple products provide preferential education prices for campus users (students or teachers). You can check the preferential price of education from the education shop in official website online shop. The formal authorized store is not authorized. Only authorized dealers on campus can offer this price.

4. Authorized distributor in the industry: As the name implies, it is a distributor who provides Apple products to the industry. Generally, there are several authorized dealers who can sell to industries, such as enterprises, associations and groups.

It should be noted that all Apple retail stores (direct stores), authorized dealers, campus stores and authorized dealers in the industry that can be searched in official website are guaranteed to be genuine licensed products, and since the first quarter of 201/kloc-0, in order to protect intellectual property rights, Apple has cracked down on piracy in China, and all regular stores cannot install software and music for customers.

However, at present, Apple's efforts to crack down on unauthorized in China are not great, so many unauthorized stores sell apples in the name of authorization. However, as long as the shops announced by official website are regular licensed shops, if it is found that selling fake parallel imports is a serious violation of Apple's compliance, Apple welcomes the report, and the shops that buy fake parallel imports will definitely receive a court summons.

Above ~ I hope it will help you.
