Want an iPhone but are a bit frugal?
Well, we've got good news and bad news for you.
Bad news: iPhone prices are traditionally the same anywhere in a specific country.
Good news: You can still save up if you look patiently - even if they be just a couple of hundred dirhams.
Officially, the iPhone 7 is at Dh2,599, Dh2,999 and Dh3,399 for 32GB, 128GB and 256GB, respectively, at the Apple Store in Dubai's Mall of the Emirates and on the Apple website. And this is the same for the rest of major retailers in the UAE; Sharaf DG is kind enough to save us our time with their convenient price comparison list - in this case, for a 32GB iPhone 7 (any colour) - which can found on their website:
It is important to note, though, that while this list is updated regularly, it is subject to change without any notice. But anyway, as at this writing, the prices indicated are accurate.
And for the moment you've all been waiting for: the cheapest 32GB iPhone 7 in the UAE is (drum roll please)... is found on Souq.com:
That's a Dh100 discount off the SRP. Ditto for the 128GB model, which is Dh70 off (and with FaceTime as well!)...
...and the 256GB option, which comes with a whopping Dh200 discount (also with FaceTime!):
Curiously, there are no cheaper offers for the iPhone 7 Plus devices; the cheapest remain at the official Dh3,099 (32GB), Dh3,499 (128GB) and Dh3,899 (256GB).
But here's the clincher (and to add a little bit more of frustration): major UAE retailers are out of stock. However, Souq.com's peers - such as JadoPado, Let's Tango and Crazy Deals - have them. But expect practically all of them to charge a tad higher than the SRPs.
It's also worthy to note that at Apple's UAE website, the iPhone 7 ships anywhere from one to five business days, while the iPhone 7 Plus clocks between six to eight weeks.
If you can wait for more supplies, good. If you can't... it's your call.
