Phone 3 UAE launch and Event

XaN

Hey! I live in Dubai and trying to preorder the Phone 3 but the shop is still stuck on “Sign up” for updates. After some searches I saw that there is an event (like a pre-sale / launch) at the Dubai Mall but I struggle to find any details and no official comms by Nothing.

Anyone has some more infos?

VLL

Same here man!!! I even called some stores in the mall but they have no clue about it. All news outlets just say Dubai Mall. The place is massive. Nothing please tell us which store!!!!

XaN

VLL asked customer support of Nothing, they say they don’t even have a planned launch/release date for UAE, so I guess we won’t be able to buy anything even if we wanted… So disappointing!

VLL

That sounds so strange. So many news outlets reporting the 12th of July and Dubai Mall. All just fake?

Daywalker

If you go to the main website it says Level 2 electronics zone, 17 July under the drops section

XaN

Daywalker and yet the official customer support is unable to confirm, you can’t even preorder the phone online. A bit weird to say the least…

VLL

definitely weird. But thanks for the heads up. I might go tomorrow morning anyway if I am in that area. Poor communication from Nothing side though.

XaN

VLL i ll go too, but seeing all other regions with discounts, offers and deals really makes me feel like a second class customer…

VLL

I am still hoping they have some deals. I want to get the headphone 1 too. I will be really annoyed if there is nothing (pun intendted). May be I should have stayed in Frankfurt a few days longer.

Daywalker

Why would you go tomorrow, it says 17th??

XaN

Daywalker in some places it says 12…

So I went just now, apparently 100 pieces only, either on 17 or 18, they dont know yet, at dubai mall 😅

VLL

XaN at Sharaf or which shop did you go to?

This is so poorly organised.

It was supposed to be sold by Sharaf DG at Dubai Mall. Went there yesterday and they have no clue. not even on the display to pre-order. Probably avilable on 17 July. Returned with nothing and went back to my Moto(r car)

VLL

I went on saturday and there was a dedicated staff from Sharaf for Nothing. Apparently there is an event at the Dubai Mall Sharaf DG next saturday. Should have 70-100 units of the phone. They were not sure about the headphone 1.

Then all that hoopla that UAE will get N 3 earlier than the globe was for nothing. Anyways happy with Moto Edge Pro 60

SubramoniamS

VLL Went to Sharaf in Dubai Mall. Even today on Nothing UAE website it is only “sign up” not “shop”

Edit 17 July

So finally UAE gets it after other markets? Vishal be at DG today 7pm. Best of luck.
