<p>About time.</p>



<p>Earlier this week, global tech giant Apple launched its online store exclusively for India. Customers from across the country can shop for Apple products directly from the horse &#8211; for the first time in all these years of the raging Apple fandom in India. ;</p>

<p>According to their <a href="https://www.apple.com/in/newsroom/2020/09/apple-brings-online-store-to-india-september-23/">official statement</a>, while inhouse Apple specialists will be assisting visiting users both in English and Hindi, engraving of emoji or text is available in a variety of other languages too. English, Bengali, Gujarati, Hindi, Kannada, Marathi, Tamil, and Telugu will be available for AirPods, and English engraving will be available for iPad and Apple Pencil.</p>

<p>Given the current (maddening) circumstances we live in, all orders will be shipped keeping in mind contact-less delivery. The orders that don’t need a signature on receiving the parcel will be left at the customer’s door, while those that do, will head back after a mere verbal confirmation from a distance. ;</p>



<p>In either case, who really orders an Apple and leaves it to be left at the door?</p>

<p>Either way the online store opens operations with the usual fare of shopping with Apple. A choice in payment options, trading an old, eligible phone for credits towards a brand new iPhone, customizing the Mac with tailor made add-ons like more memory, additional storage or an extra-powerful graphics and free starter sessions with an Apple specialist, post the purchase. To name a few. ;</p>



<p>P.S. Personal, unpopular opinion. The landing page of Apple&#8217;s official announcement of the store launch could have been a wee bit less cringy. I mean. ;</p>



<p>Okay, nevermind.</p>
