Where to pre-order iPhone 5S and 5C in Dubai for Day 1 delivery

Apple fans in the UAE need not despair for the country not being in the list of the handful of countries set to see the new iPhone 5s and the iPhone 5c release this Friday.

For, online retailers are promising a Day 1 delivery to those willing to shell out a hefty premium for the newest smartphones from Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL).

The Cupertino-based Apple has listed just 11 countries for the initial release of the iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c on Friday, September 20. They include US, Australia, Canada, China, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan, Puerto Rico, Singapore and the UK, with customers there allowed to pre-order their iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c beginning last Friday (September 13).

Apple enthusiasts who don’t mind spending a small fortune can have the ‘gold’ iPhone 5s for Dh6,000 on Friday itself, if they pre-order it right now at iphone5-dubai.com. An 800 number is listed on the website, as is a local (du) mobile number.

Emirates 24|7 spoke with a gentleman named ‘Murtada’ on the local du mobile number listed on the website, and he claimed that he can still get us the 16GB gold version of the iPhone 5s if we pay up Dh6,000 for it, after they receive the first shipment.
