Ring partners with Al Jammaz to provide smart home security for Saudi Arabia
Ring, a provider of smart home security solutions recently announced a partnership agreement with Al Jammaz Distribution, the leading Saudi based Value-Added Distributor, which distributes advanced technology products, solutions and services. This partnership will help Ring foray and expand its reach across the Saudi market offering customers Ring’s innovative home security products and solutions.
“Ring believes in keeping homes and communities safe rather than just comfortable and we hope to change the way home owners view security by keeping an eye on their family and property, even when they can’t. Ring re-imagined the doorbell so consumers could respond – using a smartphone – to someone at their front door from anyplace, anytime while simplifying the technology with the combination of App, Cloud and Security hardware,” said Mohammad Meraj Hoda, Managing Director of Ring.
“Al Jammaz has been providing technology-driven business solutions in Saudi Arabia for almost a decade and in that time, has succeeded in reaching almost 90% of the Saudi Arabian channel and distribution market. We look forward to working with Al Jammaz to address the home security needs by extending the product offerings through Internet Service Providers, Online retailers, system integrators, Internet service providers and brick and motor channels where they have very strong relationship,” concluded Mr. Hoda.
Recent studies regarding the real estate market indicated that the Gulf countries in general and Saudi Arabia in particular are likely to be the most advanced with respect to establishing smart homes as a result of the level of constructional development in this region. According to a report by Statista the revenue in the ‘Smart Home’ market amounts to US$124m in 2017 with expectation for it to show an annual growth rate (CAGR 2017-2021) of 42.3 % resulting in a market volume of US$507m in 2021. The report further reveals that currently the household penetration is at 6.1 % in 2017 and is expected to hit 24.7 % in 2021.
Ring has evolved as the leading brand in the Smart Home Security Space represented by 16000 plus stores across North America and Ring’s products globally have been hailed as dependable second set of eyes and ears to deter would-be thieves from entering homes and communities. It has been proven that Ring doorbells can reduce crime by up to 55% in neighbourhoods, and the goal is to bring the same convenience and security to the Middle East neighbourhoods.
As the Value Added Distributor, Al Jammaz will promote Ring’s latest suite of smart home security products such as Ring Video Doorbell, Ring Video Doorbell Pro, Video Doorbell Elite, Ring Floodlight Cam and the new Ring Spotlight Cam and conduct channel engagement, training and activation programs for partners. Al Jammaz will also set up go-to-market strategies with key retail partners and provide the needed infrastructure for micro-channel to engage with the Ring brand.
“The Saudi Ministry of Housing has launched programs and initiatives to achieve Vision 2030 and the National Transformation Program (NTP) 2020 which aims to increase the rate of property ownership to 52 percent. Under these directives, there are huge opportunities for the housing sector to grow and develop and we believe that the Internet of Things is set to disrupt the way we live. Homes are going to get ‘smart’ with connected products offering endless possibilities to make our lives easier, more convenient, and more comfortable. The awareness and demand for smart entry devices, such as smart doorbells that keep families, neighborhoods and communities safe are growing and therefore we believe that our partnership with Ring is a perfect fit. We see exciting new possibilities in this partnership with Ring across the Kingdom and it will help Al Jammaz to better address our customer’s needs in today’s environment of ever-increasing demand for home security solutions,” said Asim Al Jammaz, CEO, Al Jammaz Distribution.
Al Jammaz will distribute Ring’s best-of-breed home security solutions in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

OPPO Reno16 Series Arrives with Refreshed Design, Advanced Cameras and Everyday Intelligence
OPPO has introduced the Reno16 Series to the GCC, bringing together a refreshed design language, AI-powered photography, productivity features, and long-lasting performance. Comprising the Reno16 Pro, Reno16 and Reno16 F, the latest lineup reflects the growing shift towards smartphones that simplify content creation while making AI a more integrated part of everyday use.
The Reno16 arrives with AI-powered photography tools, a new design language, and personalised ColorOS 16 experiences, alongside the debut of the OPPO Bubble companion accessory. Here is a quick take on what you get with OPPO Reno16:
A Fresh Design Language
Every Reno generation has carried its own design identity, and the Reno16 Series continues that tradition with what OPPO calls the 3D Pop Planet Design. The Pop White finish introduces HoloVerse 3D Technology, creating a layered visual effect that changes with light and viewing angles. Complementing the design are seamless camera housing integration, aerospace-grade aluminium construction on selected models, and compact form factors aimed at improving one-handed usability.

Photography Meets AI Creativity
Photography remains the defining focus of the Reno series. Across the lineup, users gain a 50MP ultra-wide selfie camera, upgraded rear camera systems and AI-assisted creative tools that extend beyond image capture.
Features such as Pop Cam, AI Remix Collage, Popout Collage 2.0, and 4K Auto Straighten Video are designed to make shooting, editing and sharing content faster and more intuitive. Rather than relying on third-party apps, many creative functions are now built directly into the camera and gallery experience.

Smarter Everyday Experiences
Running ColorOS 16, the Reno16 Series expands OPPO’s AI ecosystem through features including AI Mind Space, AI Mind Pilot, AI Bill Manager, and AI Menu Translation. Together, these tools aim to organise information, provide context-aware assistance and simplify routine tasks, reflecting the broader trend of AI becoming a practical productivity companion rather than simply a chatbot.
Performance Beyond Photography
Beyond imaging, OPPO has focused on everyday endurance. Large-capacity batteries, 80W SUPERVOOC fast charging, AI HyperBoost gaming optimisation, improved network connectivity through AI LinkBoost 4.0, and IP-rated durability position the Reno16 Series as an all-round flagship experience for creators, professionals and mobile gamers alike.
Alongside the smartphones, OPPO also introduced OPPO Bubble, a magnetic AMOLED companion device that functions as a rear-camera monitor, remote shutter and customisable smart accessory, extending the company’s focus on mobile creativity beyond the smartphone itself.
Integrator’s Perspective
With the Reno16 Series, OPPO is placing equal emphasis on design, imaging and practical intelligence rather than chasing specifications alone. The addition of AI-powered productivity features, refreshed aesthetics and a broader connected ecosystem reflects how smartphone innovation is increasingly focused on enhancing everyday experiences.
As competition intensifies in the premium mid-range segment across the UAE and wider GCC, the Reno16 Series positions itself as a well-rounded offering aimed at users seeking a balance of performance, creativity and long-term value. And we at Integrator will be shortly reviewing the phone and giving our verdict soon!
Pricing & Availability
The OPPO Reno16 Series is now available for pre-booking across the UAE. The Reno16 Pro 5G is priced at AED 3,299, while the Reno16 5G retails for AED 2,499. The Reno16 F 5G starts at AED 1,799 for the 8GB + 256GB variant, with the 12GB + 256GB model priced at AED 2,099. During the pre-booking period, customers will receive complimentary accessories, screen protection and an extended warranty, with bundled benefits valued at up to AED 999 depending on the model.
