Apple Now Allowing AirPods Charging Cases to Be Engraved With Emojis

like the engraving in Alienware laptops. Sadly the price is not so good considering the audio quality.It's nice you can choose an emoji but for me it's a step back in the engraving feature... we can't mix emojis with regular text and lowercase text is not allowed anymore?!? You could write much more fun ASCII art previously than right now..
You don't read the emoji, the instant you see it it associates it with Bob.
Likeassociates you instantly with Apple.
Bottomline, it's faster.
What are we talking about - a fraction of a second?
Oh loosen up a little! iPod engraving has been around for well over a decade. Personalizing your property is fun and still covered by AppleCare.
Not knowing the answer, yet making a negative comment about users and Apple. Welcome to Macrumors these days.

Selecting a free option, yeah stupid people. There are 8 sets of AirPods in my house, mix of old and new. Pain in the ass to keep track of the owners. Nobody wanted engraving but this works for us when replacing/upgrading.
uh, I present to you, Animoji. Apple does cheesy.

Who stole your joy? It is simply printing text on a thing to help clarify that your item is not friend's item. Jeeze.
Who stole your reading glasses? Text has always been possible. The printing of emojis is the wonderful new initiative.
I think we actually agree w/ each other? Apple improved their text engraving and added pictures / emoji to identify one's own item.
Actually, I think engraving w/ a emoji would be more resale-able than text. You could have either "Boris" or a dog emoji. Dog emoji is more transferrable.
And like with used car sales, sometimes unique options pull in a higher price, though for a much smaller set of interested buyers. "Oh, it has ventilated seats? Man, those would be great in this heat." Or, "oh, it's exterior color is bright green? yeah, maybe not..."
So this is the actual state of the society...

They won’t. I think they’ve made that clear now being we have three versions of the AirPods available and only one color offered in ‘white’. Apple could’ve offered black AirPods when they first launched in December 2016, they chose not to. I think the reason being, is when you see the AirPods, the white color exemplifies it’s an ‘Apple product’ that has that traditional color we’ve always seen.
But if you’re really set on having black AirPods, you can pay a small fortune to have them painted white Colorware.
It must be difficult for you, being able to work on only one thing at a time.

I know what free means. I don't know why you put it in quotes. It's a free service Apple is offering to their customers. People like you need an excuse to complain about anything and everything.
