Significant increase in number of Apple users procuring products on-line

31 October 2013 - Over 65 per cent of Apple users in the UAE are purchasing their Apple products and accessories online, according to consumer research reports done by letstango.com. The percentage reflects how Apple consumers in the country today have become more web friendly and tech savvy, which also reflect an increased confidence in making purchases through internet based retail entities. In line with this, ‘letstango.com,' a leading UAE based online store, has announced the availability of the new iPad Air, the fifth generation iPad tablet computer designed, developed and marketed by Apple. The announcement makes ‘letstango.com UAE's first online store to accept pre-orders. Available starting November 2, 2013, the company promises free delivery within 24 hours in the UAE.
