While most of the world is now gearing up for Black Friday deals, Apple is already thinking about Christmas and has launched its 2016 Holiday Gift Guide.
Unsurprisingly, the Apple 2016 Holiday Gift Guide recommends an Apple device for everyone. Even less surprisingly, Apple devices are among the most popular holiday gifts each year, so Apple's gift guide might actually come in handy for generous Christmas shoppers looking to lavish their dear ones with expensive gadgets.
"There's an art to finding the perfect gift," says Apple. "And nothing can bring to life the passion and creativity of the people on your list like a gift from Apple."
The guide contains a number of product recommendations, highlighting its most powerful devices currently available for purchase. The iPhone, MacBook, iPad, Apple Watch, Apple TV, accessories and gift cards are all included in the holiday shopping guide, so basically Apple thinks that all of its devices and products would make great gifts this Christmas. Considering how popular Apple devices generally are, the company is probably right.
The latest MacBook Pro and iPhone 7 are already top-selling devices and many Apple fans are likely putting them on their Christmas lists already. That said, Apple is not offering any special deals or perks with this guide, it's simply listing what it has to offer in case you might want to put it under a Christmas tree.
iPhone 7 Free Next-Day Shipping
The company is offering free shipping on various products, but these vary by country and by product. For interested shoppers in the United States, Apple is offering free next-day shipping for any iPhone, including the latest iPhone 7, if the phone is in stock and the order is placed by 5:00 p.m. local time.
Free Two-Day Shipping On Other Apple Products
While the much touted iPhone 7 comes with free next-day shipping, other Apple products come with free two-day shipping. This offer is also for U.S. customers who purchase the product by 5:00 p.m. local time, provided the product is in stock.
For Canada, all customers will get free standard shipping for all products Apple sells. For the UK, Apple is offering free next-day shipping on products that are in stock, provided the order is placed by 7 p.m. local time. This applies to orders of at least £40.
For other Western European countries such as France, Spain, Germany and the Netherlands, Apple offers free next-day deliver for in-stock products that cost at least €40, provided that the order is placed between 3 p.m. and 5 p.m. local time.
