The UAE official Apple Store is now available

The UAE official Apple Store is now available. Looks like that the prices are more competitive than the local distributors.
I have already placed one order and saved a couple of thousands Dirhams. I can say that at least you will save between 10 to 20 percent on the local prices. The best thing of all is that you can have all the options and accessories that are available in the US because all orders are coming from there. You will no longer be at the mercy of the distributors and what is locally available.

Dubai consumers will soon be able to get their hands on LG’s Optimus 3D smartphone, when the device goes on sale at Sharaf DG stores later this month.

The handset, which was unveiled at the Mobile World Congress in February, features a 4.3-inch 3D-capable touchscreen that uses parallax barrier technology so users don’t need special glasses to see the effects. A dual-lens camera also allows users to capture 3D images and footage, that can be uploaded to a dedicated YouTube channel.

Dubai-based electronic retailer Sharaf DG confirmed the product will be available for sale at its outlets from the end of August and will retail at AED3,000 ($816.71).
