OOREDOO has on Sunday thanked everyone who attended its glittering HQ1 iPhone launch event, for making the night a huge success.
The iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus were launched in Ooredoo's HQ1 on Friday. The event, which was open to anyone who pre-ordered the new iPhone, gave new device owners the chance to try out their phones with other Apple enthusiasts, as well as speak to Ooredoo's iPhone 8 specialists.
The devices, which are now available in main Ooredoo branches across Doha on via the eShop, feature a new glass and aluminium design in three beautiful finishes - space grey, silver and a new gold and devices start at QR2,949.
As well as Ooredoo customers, a host of Ooredoo employees attended the event including the company's COO, Yousuf Abdulla al Kubaisi.
On top of the new iPhone devices, the new Apple Watch Series 3 (GPS), which includes intelligent coaching features, water resistance to 50 metres, a 70 percent faster dual-core processor and a barometric altimeter, is now available in Ooredoo's shops and via the eShop.
Ooredoo is an official distributor of Apple in Qatar, and the strong connection between the two companies means that customers can enjoy the latest software upgrades, and also the security of a one-year guarantee for iPhones.
