Dubai: Etisalat is again slashing the prices of a number of electronic gadgets, including Apple’s iPhone X and Samsung’s S8 plus, and shoppers can save up to Dh1,450 on every purchase.
Only about a week after its previous bargain offer ended, the telecommunications firm announced on February 7 that its “Device Sale” is back, and those who are looking to upgrade their phones can enjoy discounts of up to 60 per cent off the normal price.
Etisalat has knocked down the cost of the popular iPhoneX, now priced at Dh3,769, while Samsung Galaxy S8+, along with a VR3 gear, can be had for Dh2,549, which can translate to a saving of Dh600.
