Return of the in-person midnight launch

Save the date, Apple fans! Customers who will line up to purchase their new iPhone 14 will get a chance to receive a starter kit with freebies worth up to ₱28,000 from partner brands namely Adam Elements, Anker, Belkin, PanzerGlass, Ventev, Aukey, Cygnett, Laut, Itskins, and Otterbox.

Those who went through the pre-order process are guaranteed their choice of device but will have to line up with all others at the official queue if they wish to get a premium accessory bundle.

Midnight iPhone launches have long been a tradition at PMC. Some fans line up as early as the day before the launch for the honor of being the first customer on launch day. To make the wait worthwhile, PMC fills the night with games and food and invites OPM artists to entertain the crowd. This year, the party will officially start at 9:00 PM on Thursday, October 13, 2022. See you there!
