Apple season is officially here, and you can now secure the all-new iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max across all Beyond the Box physical stores and online channels.

As usual, Beyond the Box is stepping up the launch experience with serious perks, full pricing transparency, and flexible payment options.

PhP 22,000 in guaranteed freebies

Pre-ordering either the iPhone 18 Pro or Pro Max gets you PhP 22,000 worth of premium gear. Beyond the Box breaks down the exact SRP for every item so you know the precise value you are taking home.

The bundle features the Momax iPhone 18 Pro Gift Set valued at PhP 2,670, the Momax 1-Vibe Bottle Magnetic Wireless Speaker Flask worth PhP 3,490, and the Bellroy Lite Tech Kit valued at PhP 3,190.

Earn double tech bites points

Every pre-order earns Double Tech Bites Loyalty Points. Standard rates give you 1 point for every PhP 300 spent, meaning a PhP 100,000 purchase nets you over 600 points once you pick up your unit.

You can redeem these points on your next accessory upgrade or spend them at any restaurant under the Tasteless Food Group.

0% installments & “Lower-Than-Cash” promo deals

Upgrading is made easier with flexible financing. You can spread payments across 24 to 36 months at 0% interest via partner credit cards. Select payment terms also offer exclusive promotional rates that actually come out lower than the cash price.

If you are still deciding on color or storage, you can reserve a unit with a PhP 5,000 downpayment. To guarantee your stock allocation, simply settle the remaining balance on or before October 16.

Given high demand for specific colors and capacities, securing your order early is strongly recommended. Pre-orders are live today at all physical Beyond the Box stores nationwide and through their official online channels.
