Apple iPhone SE launched in UAE

dubai — The Apple iPhone SE is now officially available in the UAE. Even though several ecommerce portals have been selling the ‘beloved four-inch’ phone since its launch on March 21, Apple made the phone and other new Apple products available to users in the UAE as of Tuesday, April 5.

Telecom operator Etisalat announced that it will offer its customers the new iPhone across its key business centres and retail outlets in the UAE. iPhone SE is available at Apple’s suggested retail price of Dh1,649 (16GB) and Dh2,049 (64GB).

The device is available in gold, rose gold, silver and space grey colours.

iPhone SE offers exceptional performance with the same 64bit A9 chip offered in iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus for blazing fast speeds, longer battery life, faster wireless, a 12-megapixel iSight camera featuring Live Photos and 4K video, and Touch ID with Apple Pay.

“iPhone SE is an exciting new idea — we started with a beloved, iconic design and reinvented it from the inside out. The result is the most beautiful and powerful phone with a fourinch display in the world,” said Philip Schiller, Apple’s senior vice-president of Worldwide Marketing.

“iPhone SE is packed with a stunning four-inch retina display, advanced 64-bit A9 chip with M9 motion co-processor, longer battery life, 12-megapixel iSight camera with True Tone flash, Live Photos, 4K video, faster LTE and Wi-Fi, and Touch ID with Apple Pay. Everyone who wants a smaller phone is going to love iPhone SE.”

“iPhone SE takes a beloved iPhone design and reinvents it from the inside out, giving customers a powerful, full-featured iPhone no matter which model they choose,” added Schiller.
