What’s the Difference Between IQOS 3.0 DUO Middle East and Japan Versions?

What’s the difference between the IQOS 3.0 DUO Middle East and Japan versions? The IQOS 3.0 DUO launched in Japan and Dubai, but not in Korea or Russia. The author thinks the reason may be related to the previous 3.0 model.

What’s the Difference Between the Middle East and Japan Versions of IQOS 3.0 DUO?


          IQOS 3.0 DUO was released in Japan and Dubai at the same time, but it was not launched in South Korea or Russia. In the editor’s view, the reason it was not released in South Korea may be related to the previous 3.0 generation. Before the previous IQOS 3.0 was officially released in Japan, goods from IQOS’s internal heat source channel in South Korea had already been sold to Chinese buyers, and they even appeared for sale in Huaqiangbei 10 days early. I feel this may be the reason South Korea could not get priority for the IQOS 3.0 DUO launch.

   So, what is the difference between the Dubai version of IQOS 3.0, also known as the Middle East version, and the Japan version?
 
 Aside from a few lines of Dubai text on the outer packaging, the Middle East version of IQOS comes with Japanese manuals and warranty cards inside, so it is exactly the same as the Japan version. Even the warranty website address and service locations shown on it are all for Japan.  However, the Middle East version is cheaper than the Japan version, so everyone can choose the more cost-effective
Middle East version.
