Apple Launches 2022 Holiday Gift Guide

[MacRumors]

Apple today announced the launch of its 2022 Holiday Gift Guide and seasonal content across its services.

Starting today, Apple's annual Holiday Gift Guide is available via its website to help customers choose appropriate gifts more easily. Simultaneously, Apple Store locations around the world will provide personalized support for holiday shopping, gift recommendations, and delivery and pickup options. Apple also highlighted its trade-in values, carrier deals, free engravings, financing options, device setup assistance, and extended returns policy.

Alongside the Holiday Gift Guide, Apple pointed out the premiere of "Spirited" on Apple TV+ later this month, a Christmas musical comedy starring Ryan Reynolds and Will Ferrell, and the Carols Covered and Classical Carols Covered playlists on Apple Music.

Anyone recall what Apple did for black Friday in USA and also UK in 2021?

Finance presents for all the family! 😂

 

[WiiDSmoker]

They also extended all returns January 8th

 

[TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️]

Always nice to see an extended return date policy. I wish it was extended like that by default for all the purchases from Apple hahha!

I wish I had friends or family that would buy me a new Apple Watch or iPad.

But you’re Spock. Why would you lower yourselves to such things?

Let alone the higher priced items in this promo image, who receives an iPad Pro or AW Ultra as a gift casually?

Made lots of consumer money disappear and lots of consumer credit pile up.

 

[inkswamp]

No Mac Mini M2 before Christmas, no holiday shopping on Apple.com for me. 🤷‍♂️

Last year's Carols Covered was good. I hope the same for this year's version.

 

[CarAnalogy]

Nintendo just did the same thing. Shockingly, they recommend you buy a Switch, lots of games, and a Switch Online membership.

Just once I'd like to see one of these companies' self serving holiday gift guides say "How about an Xbox? People like those."

 

[topdrawer]

i only give consumables as gifts.

 

[frifra]

The gift guide:

If you want a phone -> buy an iPhone.

If you want a PC -> buy an iPad

If you want a watch -> buy an Apple Watch.

You are welcome.

i bought my sister, her three kids, my mom, two grandparents, and my GF all a brand new Apple Watch 🤷🏼‍♂️

Now is the time of season you have to decide which child goes off to college with an iPad, and which one gets a notebook, #2 pencil and an Etch A Sketch.

Do you have capacity for a boyfriend, or want to adopt perhaps?

Dear Apple, my desired holiday gift is fewer ads and less intrusive marketing. Can you deliver?

In the U.S., it was mostly free Apple gift cards with select purchases e.g., up to $100 gift card with purchase of certain Macs or iPads, up to $75 gift card with purchase of certain AirPods, up to $50 gift card with purchase of certain iPhones or Apple Watches, etc.

Nobody needs an Apple gift guide but Apple trying to be helpful.

I like the snowflakes they made out of the iDevices…

That is all. Thanks for listening.
