Useless but nice attention to details! Glad I got mine engraved this time. Mostly to keep family members filthy paws off my APP. No more mistaking mine from theirs.
Engraving is just a way to lower resale value, so Apple is all for it
No, that's the best you can claim seeing you postulated the original post. It's along the lines of fix bugs or implement emojis as if the same people were serializing emojis and bug fixes.
This has got to be part of Apple’s strategy to get you to buy it right from them. I was also waiting for a sale at a third party, but man do I want an engraved Memoji!
Absolutely fantastic. These are the little touches (which from an implementation perspective aren't little at all) that bring delight to users. Apple is so good at this sort of thing.
Especially when they start to get discounted. Do you want to pay full price or $199 from Amazon?
This is textbook why people love Apple! The whole experience is magic actually, takes seconds to pair, no fiddling about with Bluetooth or anything like that.
One team for UI things like this, another for other aspects of iOS. I would believe that. It's a real shame they don't have the ability to move people between teams, though, because the bugs could really use more attention.
Hey! Better than my team. My team is full of clueless PMs conducting status meetings and PowerPoint presentations, and useless dashboards.
Engraving from Apple has always been about 'final sale'. Engrave your iPod? Can't return it. Goes all the way back to then.
Airpods I can see, as you're not likely to resell but anybody daft enough to personalize any Apple device deserves the consequences of final sale and reduced resale value.

Who even buys secondhand AirPods, engraved or not?? 🤢🤮
you go to a restaurant and shove a fork into your mouth that's been in thousands of other ppl's mouths. get over yourself
Weirdly my engraving is showing on the 'connecting' screen (at the bottom of your image), but it doesn't show up in the image at the top of the settings screen (top of your image).
Anybody else have something similar?
Not sure I'd ever buy used earbuds, call me crazy.
I would never pay 50 dollars more for engraving something. What’s the point? It seems juvenile to me
