Apple Store exterior featuring columns and the Apple logo emblazoned on a large window above glass doors
There are Apple Store locations worldwide, identifiable by the company's iconic logo.

You probably know Apple's now-decades-old advertising slogan "think different." There's perhaps no better example of Apple's willingness to think differently than when it chose to launch its one chain of retail stores.

The first Apple store opened in 2001, and Apple remains the only technology company to have its own extensive family of brick-and-mortar stores (though Microsoft most notably followed suit with its own retail locations, of which it currently operates about 100). You can visit one of the more than 500 locations to browse the latest Apple products, including iPhones, iPads, MacBooks, and a host of other high-tech accessories.
