- Engraving adds that extra special touch and is offered for free only at apple.com/ae, where customers can personalize iPad, AirTag, AirPods, and Apple Pencil with a mix of emoji, text, and numbers. Customers in New York can receive free, onsite engraving of new AirPods purchased or picked up at Apple Fifth Avenue.
- Complementing a gift with an Apple accessory? Customers can check the Apple Store app for personalized recommendations, availability of an item, and self-checkout when shopping on store avenues where customers can explore Apple’s latest products and services.
- Apple offers convenient same-day two-hour delivery and next-day delivery in a number of markets, as well as pickup at local Apple Store locations.
