iPhone 8 sales start tomorrow in the UAE

03:43PM Fri 22 Sep, 2017

Let's make this plain and simple: sales of the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus will begin in the UAE tomorrow, and it'll kick off at the latest Apple Store in The Dubai Mall. The invite sent to us indicates that it would start at 8AM. And despite the fact that it's going to happen a couple of hours before the mall opens, we're quite sure word has already spread - and we're helping that cause even further here - about this. Reminds us of when The Dubai Mall Apple Store was opened last April 27, but it was the other way around then: everyone had to wait until 4PM before they could get in and have their fill. And we're quite sure that early-morning time won't be an issue; remember when the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus was launched last year? The first one in line started waiting at 10PM the previous evening. Though more than the iPhone 8 itself, there's a more interesting twist to this: with the iPhone X slated to be launched in the UAE on November 4, it'll be interesting to find out if we'll be seeing the usual mania surrounding iPhone launches, or if it'll be a bit toned down because fans will be waiting for the starting-at-Dh4,099 device.
