The award that Apple delivers at its Apple Music Awards is very exclusive. Each award features a custom Apple silicon wafer suspended between a polished glass sheet and an anodized aluminum body. The wafers start out as a perfect 12-inch silicon disk with nano-level flatness.
Introducing the Apple Music Award! Made with the same laser-cut silicon wafers found in Apple microprocessors, it’s a token of our appreciation for the artists who broke ground and dominated this 2019. # AppleMusicAwards2019https://t.co/MyeKRP91oL pic.twitter.com/oM5ojE3FOF
