HH Sheikh Hamdan Turned Up At The New Apple Store Today And The Crowd Couldn’t Get Enough
The new Apple store, the third in the UAE, opened it’s doors to the public this week to one major media frenzy.
The stunning design has even got Apple CEO Tim Cook excited, but today the excitement was for a different reason.
The new store has been given the royal seal of approval by none other than HH Sheikh Hamdan, Crown Prince of the UAE and ruler of Dubai who turned up to the store, with little notice (to the public anyway).
Dubai’s Crown Prince is a proud user of the iPhone
He’s a keen photographer and usually tags the iPhone in some of his Insta posts. Dubai Mall is a busy place to be on a Saturday, but we imagine the crowds parted to make way for the prince. Luckily some eagle-eyed visitors managed to capture some the following clips….
