Long lines are coming: Singapore telcos unveil offerings on Apple's new iPhone 7

The smartphone will arrive in the city-state in about a week.

Giant tech firm Apple finally unveiled the latest edition in the iPhone series. Dubbed as the “most advanced mobile,” iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus will hit Singapore on 16 September, and local telcos are already scrambling to get the first sale of the day.

Singtel have already launched pre-order forms online for iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus.

“Customers can pre-register for the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus from 12pm, Thursday, 8 September,” Singtel’s announcement said.

StarHub is also hoping to benefit from the release of the water and dust resistant phone. The company opened its registration at 4:30pm today.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
