Apple's third retail store in the United Arab Emirates opened today at the Dubai Mall, and Apple has shared several photos from its debut on the official Apple news site.

Apple Dubai Mall, located in downtown Dubai, features massive windows with an impressive view of the Burj Khalifa, the tallest structure in the world, along with the Dubai Fountain below. It spans two stories and offers the design that's been seen in newer stores like Apple Union Square, plus it includes carbon fiber "Solar Wings" and a 186-foot curved storefront.

​

The new Dubai store features "Today at Apple" sessions focusing on art, design music, photography, videography, and coding, a feature that debuted at the Apple Store in San Francisco last year and will soon expand to all Apple retail stores around the world.

Today at Apple sessions are primarily taught by Creative Pros, which Apple has described as the "liberal arts equivalent" to its more technical Geniuses, but in select cities, well-known artists, photographers, and musicians will also teach classes.

Apple Dubai Mall is the company's third Middle Eastern store, joining stores at the Mall of the Emirates in Dubai and the Yas Mall in Abu Dhabi.

The crowd at that store looks to have a similar density as every other Apple Store I've been to... It's just a little larger.
 
Oh yeah, gold windows, sure. I hope Apple prepared real gold iMacs and gold iPhones, it will sell like hotcakes there.
 
So is this lavish cathedral of 95% representation and 5% actual product display also powered 100% by renewable energy?
 
Disappointed not to see great whites in a circular marine aquarium & Siberian tigers prowling on the rooftop. Surely someone with more money than brains would have thought of this?

Looks like a great place to stand to get an elevated view of the fountain, if you can go out onto that balcony.

America was built on the backs of slaves, you know.

Lol no. If it was economical and profitable slavery would still exist in the US to this day but it rapidly became too expensive to maintain so alternative means of production were sought. America was built on the back of ingenuity, from blacks and whites.

Black (and Muslim) majority countries had slavery for years after the US abolished it yet they are not successful in the least.
 
Ah, the UAE, where everything is done with such elegance, subtlety and understated taste...

I bet Apple cringed when they were asked to design this hideous eyesore - YUCK!



YUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!! o_O:rolleyes:
