Apple consistently does an excellent job of promoting and marketing any of its new products or services. Unlike a lot of other large tech giants out there, Apple always seems to create emotive and engaging advertising material that not only invokes an emotional reaction from consumers, but also resonates with them and how they live their life. Now, in an effort to increase conversion in retail outlets, Apple is introducing interactive touch-sensitive tables in a number of stores to directly promote the 3D Touch functionality found within its iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus handsets.
Great news for those of you in the Middle East who want quick and easy access to Apple's products and services. The Cupertino-based giant has announced that it will be opening its first two Apple Retail Stores in the Middle East on October 29.

As of October 29 that will no longer be the case with Dubai and Abu Dhabi set to benefit from Apple's presence.

Not exactly standard behavior from a CEO who sits at the top of one of the richest companies in the world, but then again, Cook isn't a standard CEO. It's also a move that will undoubtedly add positivity to Apple's iPhone 6s sales campaign and win Cook even more fans than he's already got.
