Usage notes

Collocations

Often used in fixed expressions like 平价超市 (discount supermarket) or 平价商品 (reasonably priced goods), not as a general adjective for any cheap item.

Common mistakes

Unlike 便宜 (just 'cheap'), 平价 specifically means 'reasonably priced' or 'parity', and cannot be used to describe low quality.
