For many years, entering the Apple universe meant a high investment. Between iPhone, Mac, Air Pods and Apple Watch, the sum easily exceeded a few thousand euros. But by keeping prices low on two of the latest launches – MacBook Neo and iPhone 17e – the brand seems to have started to change this reality.
Today, it is now possible to buy a complete Apple bundle for two thousand euros, although we always have to choose the entry-level models of each device. If you want to enter definitively (and completely – we only left out the iPad, because with the new Neo, it becomes redundant) into the “kingdom” of Apple, the PCGuia prepared a shopping list for him.
Starting point: iPhone 17e

The center of any Apple ecosystem remains the iPhone and the 17e will be the new gateway. With an A19 processor and 256 GB entry version, it is more affordable than the 2025 model, the 16e. In Portugal, the PVP is 739 euros.
Computer: MacBook Neo
Another important factor in this change for Apple is the price of computers. The brand debuted in the range of affordable notebooks with the Neo, which is also the first to use the same chip as the iPhone, the A18 Pro. The entry-level version, with 256 GB of storage, is 699 euros.
Watch: Apple Watch SE 3
In the wearables segment, the Apple Watch SE3 has become the most affordable way to have a smart watch from the brand. It has an S10 processor with dual-core CPU and Neural Engine, is available in 40 or 44 mm versions, measures heart rate and already has Apple Pay. The PVP is 279 euros.
Headphones: AirPods 4
To complete the set, the AirPods 4 are missing, which will function as a “sound bridge” between all Apple devices. These headphones have Bluetooth 5.3, a maximum autonomy of thirty hours, Spatial Audio and can also be charged using the Apple Watch base. In the cheapest version (149 euros) we do not, however, have ANC.
These four devices are essential for entering the Apple ecosystem, which guarantees automatic synchronization between iPhone and Mac, shared calls/messages, AirDrop and Handoff. Something that, for years, was seen as a luxury, is now becoming available to a much wider public: the bill is even below the psychological limit of two thousand euros and is fixed at 1866 euros.
