Ooredoo on Saturday announced that the event it organised for customers to collect the latest iPhone devices has seen a huge turnout. It was held at the Khalifa International Stadium on Friday between midnight and 3 am.
Thousands of iPhone 12 devices were sold via Ooredoo’s pre-order option, with the stock selling out soon after pre-orders opened.
To avoid COVID-19 transmission risks, Ooredoo delivered the iPhones directly to customers in their vehicles. Ooredoo said the event ran with the tagline: “Collect your device from the safety of your car”.
“Customers were eager to collect their new iPhone 12 and their cars queued as soon as lines opened. The first device was officially handed to Ooredoo ambassador Ghanem Al Muftah.
“A team of Ooredoo staff was present at the Khalifa Stadium to ensure the process ran smoothly and efficiently, and in line with all current social distancing and safety guidelines,” the company said in a statement.
“An impressive firework display accompanied the opening of the event, in keeping with the atmosphere of excitement created by Apple fans keen to get their hands on the long-awaited new 5G devices.”
Fatima Sultan Al Kuwari, Chief Consumer Officer at Ooredoo, said, “We know being able to access the latest technology and the most coveted devices on the market is a huge priority for our customers. We work tirelessly to ensure we can bring such products to Qatar as soon as they’re available. The launch of a new iPhone device always creates great excitement, and as always, we were proud to be at the centre of the
hype.”
Customers pre-ordering a new iPhone 12 could also choose to collect their new device from selected Ooredoo shops, or have it delivered to their doorstep. Both options saw customers getting their hands on their new devices from November 20, 2020.
