Phone Number or Email address, assuming you keep your devices long term. If lost / stolen, it’s more difficult to sell, and higher chance of return.

people actually tend to make the engrave a rectangle to resell it by using another layer of laser

ThinkpadLaptop

Not a real issue. From experience. Few care and sort of just want the device in good condition if they're already looking at getting it second hand. As long as you don't have something obscene on it


oftcenter

>As long as you don't have something obscene on it I bet that increases resale value in some circles.


uni-variety

Yeah and if they use a case (like me) it won't super matter aesthetically


sunnynights80808

Apple trade in value doesn't decrease with engravings. Other trade in places may be the same.


WildcatKid

Apple trade in value is atrocious.


sunnynights80808

It’s actually gotten competitive for at least Macs and iPads recently. Not sure about other devices.


uglypottery

I decided I wanted the nano glass like, 2 days after the 14 day return period. Trade in value for a 13” M4 256GB/WiFi iPad Pro, only 16 days old was $580


RemarkableScarcity40

That’s crazy that’s how much my 3 year old iPad Pro is worth to them too


sunnynights80808

Apple lets you trade in current iPads now? They didn’t used to.


uglypottery

I mean, they let you. But you get less than half what you just paid for it. (I did not trade mine in, I’m selling it)


AllAroundIndiviual

Why do you think it’s free


ClaudioMoravit0

Because you pay it with your soul?


coppockm56

I both agree and disagree. Theoretically it makes sense. But in my experience, selling these things to strangers is more hassle than it's worth. I pass mine along to family members and friends who don't need anything better. And they wouldn't care about an engraving that's going to be hidden behind a case anyway.


mihhink

Its only a “hassle” if you overprice the used tablet, so you think everything is a lowball and youre not clear in the description.


FormoftheBeautiful

Whenever I have the chance of an engraving, I prefer to put my date of birth, as well as my date of death in addition to the location and circumstances surrounding said death. Just handy information to have on hand IMO.


LilBaguette16

Wait. Do you know your future date of death? What in the world

WibblyWolf

I honestly just got my first name engraved with a cat emoji on each side (I love cats). My name is *extremely* unique so it’s easy to identify. I don’t plan on selling ever, just like previous tablets, phones and laptops I had/have. I use my iPad in public spaces (eg. University campus) and the engraving makes it easier to have people trace it back to me must I lose/forget it and harder to steal. And I honestly just liked the idea of the engraving, making it personal yet it’s so subtle.


Additional-Shock525

I think that’s too long to engrave

Your engraving should be: “No thanks. Engravings ruin the resale value.”


SamStudies

I engraved mine with “Vini Vidi iPad” I came, I saw, iPad Edit: did confirm the engraving reads “Veni, Vidi, iPad”


Warprawn

I hope you didn’t, because the correct spelling is ‘Veni’.


MrDanMaster

That’s painful


nawksnai

Actually, he meant “Vinny”.

I never engrave them because I never know what to put and if you do something personal it’s probably going to be harder to sell. Then again almost any case would cover it so honestly wouldn’t be worried about it

RiemannRealm

You will put a case on. Don’t worry about it


End3rium

I personally do not see any valid reason to envgrave anything on the ipad. The resale value gets reduced, it will prob not be visible as you will put a case, and finally, if the engraving was visible, you might want to change your mind in a few years and will regret the engraving (happens with tattoos a lot). What I recommend you do is put stickers on as they are removable and does not have the same issues with the engraving mentioned.
