9 November 2014 - Dubai: On November 10th, Sony Mobile MEA will launch the public competition that will help identify the lucky winners that will visit the Xperia Aquatech Concept Store. The competition, inspired by the durability aspects of the Xperia waterproof range, will offer each of the 15 people and a friend from the United Arab Emirates and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia the chance to take part in this aquatic experience. The World’s first Xperia Aquatech store is set to debut underwater at the World Islands, off the coast of Dubai on the 3rd of December. A feat of underwater architecture, the concept store has a diameter of 4 meters and will sit on the sea bed at a depth of 4 meters [Tide Dependent] and will be able to welcome 4 individuals at once, and two product experts. The interior environment will be a WIFI enabled semi-wet environment, visitors will be able to stand on the sea bed with the water up to their waist. The dry top section will allow the occupants to breathe freely, as they explore the full waterproof range of Xperia smartphones, tablets and smart accessories. The Xperia Aquatech Store was conceptualized by Sony Mobile’s regional creative agency, FP7 Dubai that takes the demonstration of Xperia waterproof smartphones beyond the realms of the traditional and into a surreal environment that blends technology and aquatic design in one.
Commenting on the activity, Spyros Gousetis, Marketing Director at Sony Mobile MEA said: “The Xperia Aquatech Store is the embodiment of Sony’s philosophy of offering emotionally stirring experiences to our users. We are very excited that we will be able to create this experience for a number of lucky winners.” The competition, which will be hosted on Sony Mobile’s social media platforms, primarily Facebook and Twitter, asks participants to simply upload an image of them and their smartphone illustrating why they would like to drown the latter.
