BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN (Borneo Bulletin/ANN): The excitement for Apple’s latest flagship, the iPhone 17, reached fever pitch in Brunei on Friday as long queues formed outside the BIBD Kiulap Branch following the launch of the iPhone 17 Mobi Bundle by DST.

The new Mobi Bundle allows customers to own the iPhone 17 through DST’s 24-month contract plans. One of the first buyers, Hadid, shared his enthusiasm: “I arrived at the queue at 5:45am after Subuh prayer, and there were already two people ahead of me. I’m really excited to get my hands on the iPhone 17, especially for its exceptional camera quality for pictures and videos. The Mobi Bundle makes it very affordable.”

The launch event was jointly officiated by Chief Operating Officer of DST Ang Kian Han, and Acting Head of Marketing of BIBD Ahmad Firdaus  Salim.

The iPhone 17 Mobi Bundle offers outstanding value for DST customers, starting from BND945 upfront for the iPhone 17 paired with the Mobi 80 plan.
