Safaricom Open Day is Back with Crazy Deals
Safaricom’s Open Day is coming up and the company has lined up offers on a wide range of smartphones. There are discounts on everything from entry-level smartphones and tablets
The savings made may not be as significant but hey, in this economy, any opportunity to save a shilling or two is worth taking, I guess. No?
Also, newer devices like the Tecno Camon X Pro, the Huawei P20 Lite, the Infinix Hot S3 and the OPPO F7 are not discounted despite them being in stock and on sale at Safaricom’s retail outlets.
