Next Apple is going to sell sticker packs at their Apple Stores. Just 2 stickers for $50.
Newest product Apple Air® and Apple Air Pro®. Now with thinner Air.
Mac Studio and the Studio Display got Black stickers too, they also had different sizes.
Apple penny pinching at its finest. Whatever reason Apple throws to the public to justify, cost cutting is the number one reason they don’t want to publicly announce.
Whether that sticker is still useful or valuable is the matter of each customer.

As an economist, I find this a fascinating display of loss aversion.
If Apple never included stickers and added them, most people's response would have likely been mildly positive; but take them away and we get 9 pages and counting of OMG! How dare they!

Seeing the old rainbow stickers makes me want them to go back to that logo. The current logo is so sterile.
Yep. The stickers have been crap for years.
I've still got some of the good ones left. My junior high school put in a couple labs of Apple //es, they didn't care about the stickers, I brought them home. I used them on various things over the years, but I've got some unopened packages left.
I like how Apple has minimialized its products for Eco reasons, getting rid of all plastic, shrinking boxes, etc.
And then when it shows up at my doorstep, its inside some giant box with fifteen labels on the outside (LITHIUM BATTERY! FRAGILE! Shipping label) and 15 plastic bags of air on the inside.
....and then they're worried about a tiny little sticker....

Discovered these on an old gift card today, so re-visited this thread hoping someone had mentioned these stickers!
Hope these ones survive, and periodically get new designs 🤞🏻
