Enthusiastic fans lined up outside Apple Store in Dubai from Thursday night to be among the first ones to get their hands on the latest Apple iPhone models.
All the way from St Petersburg, Vladislav Mikheev was the first in line to arrive along with his entourage from Russia at 11am on Thursday. He made sure the trek was all worth it as he walked away with six iPhones.
"I've been using the iPhone for 10 years now," he told Khaleej Times. "I like Apple because it is faster [than other brands]."
Mikheev's brother, Konstantin, added that the iPhones were the only reason they came to the UAE.
They arrived in Dubai on Thursday and went straight to The Dubai Mall, and flew out of the country on Saturday.
The brothers are eager to show off their new digital toys back home in Russia, where the new devices will be released this week.
