Apple retailer SMS Gadget will bring the iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, and iPhone Fold to Bangladesh just one day after Apple’s global launch. Prices start near ৳170,000, with 0% EMI available and pre-orders open now at 10% down. Available at 13+ branches nationwide and at smsgadget.com.

Dhaka, Bangladesh, 27th Aug 2026 – SMS Gadget, one of Bangladesh’s authorized Apple retailers, will bring the newest iPhone lineup to its stores just one day after Apple’s global launch, a turnaround most local retailers can’t match since unauthorized shops typically take weeks to stock new models.

As an authorized retailer, SMS Gadget sells only genuine Apple devices, sourced through official channels rather than grey-market imports. Every unit comes with full international warranty coverage and direct after-sales support, backed by the company’s pricing on the new lineup detailed below.

Customers won’t need to wait weeks or risk unofficial imports. They get the new iPhone at a transparent iPhone price, backed by a warranty that actually holds up.

Company Background

Founded in 2021, SMS Gadget has grown into one of Bangladesh’s leading electronics retail chains, offering smartphones, tablets, laptops, smartwatches, home appliances, and tech accessories. All genuine and authorized products.

The company has built a strong base of repeat customers, supported by a dedicated after-sales team and a 0% EMI facility that lets buyers pay in easy installments. That combination of authentic products, consistent service, and flexible payment options has established SMS Gadget’s reputation as a trusted name in Bangladesh’s electronics retail market.

Product & Launch Detail

SMS Gadget will launch the full new iPhone lineup in Bangladesh this year. The lineup includes the iPhone 18 Pro, the iPhone 18 Pro Max, and the iPhone Fold. All three models arrive one day after Apple’s global launch.

The iPhone price in Bangladesh runs higher than the global price. This is normal. Imported phones carry VAT. That adds extra cost on top of the base price.

The iPhone 18 Pro Max price starts near ৳170,000. It goes up to ৳280,000 based on storage size. Pre-orders are open now. Buyers pay just 10% in advance. The final iPhone price locks in on delivery day, not booking day.

Why This Matters

This speed brings real value to customers. There is no week-long wait. There is no need for grey-market imports.

The products are authorized. Buyers get full international warranty coverage. They get a genuine product guarantee. They get direct after-sales support too.

Most other retailers in Bangladesh take weeks to stock new iPhone models. Many use unofficial import channels. Warranty support is often limited or missing.

SMS Gadget’s model stands apart. Authentic products reach customers faster. Real service backs every sale. It is not just a sale. It is a guarantee that stands behind it.

Statement from SMS Gadget Leadership

Mahide Hasan is the founder of SMS Gadget. He has a clear, long-term goal. He wants to open stores in every district of the country.

“We want every Bangladeshi to have access to genuine products,” said Mahide Hasan, founder, SMS Gadget. “This goes for buyers in cities and in rural areas alike. We aim to offer affordable pricing and reliable service as the country’s digital economy keeps growing.”

Additional Offers

SMS Gadget is marking the launch with special offers. The 0% EMI facility now covers the entire new iPhone lineup. This makes it easier for customers to own the latest device without financial strain.

The company has also set up an exclusive in-store experience. Customers can visit flagship outlets and explore the new models hands-on. They can try the phones before taking them home.

Availability Info 

The iPhone 18 lineup will be available at SMS Gadget’s 13+ branches across Bangladesh. It will also be available on the official website, https://smsgadget.com/.

Customers can place preorders online. They can also visit their nearest outlet directly. For stock updates, pricing details, or booking help, customers can call the SMS Gadget hotline at 09617887733.

Singapore, Singapore, August 27th, 2026, Chainwire

TermMax, a fixed-rate lending protocol built by Term Structure Labs, announced on August 26 that it has received a strategic investment from YZi Labs. Terms were not disclosed.

TermMax was selected for YZi Labs’ EASY Residency Season 3 and has raised more than $8 million to date. Its earlier backers include Cumberland DRW — which led the 2023 seed round — HashKey Capital, Decima Fund, Longling Capital and MZ Web3 Fund.

The protocol has been live on mainnet since April 2025 and now runs across 10 EVM-compatible chains, with 60 fixed-rate markets, 40 strategy vaults, tens of millions of dollars in total value locked and more than 1.5 million registered wallets. Keyrock, Hardcore Labs, Edge Capital and Origami serve as Curators, managing strategy vaults on the protocol. The $TMX token completed its TGE on August 25.

The investor’s own public position points to the gap this investment is meant to fill. In an August 14 post describing what it wants to see built, YZi Labs wrote that tokenized blue-chip equities have reached meaningful volume, but that the financial application layer around them — credit, collateral management, risk transfer and structured products — remains underdeveloped, and that options and other risk-transfer products in particular remain conspicuously absent.

YZi Labs placed this investment precisely where that gap sits.

“When I left banking, there were a few hundred billion dollars of assets sitting on-chain without a single directly observable interest rate curve between them. In traditional markets, that would be unheard of. That is what made me decide to build this infrastructure on-chain.” – Jerry Li, Co-founder and CEO, TermMax.

Tokenized equities are the fastest-growing asset class on-chain, now at $2.48 billion, with holder count up 165% in 30 days.

TermMax integrated Ondo Global Markets in January 2026 to launch the first fixed-rate borrowing market to accept tokenized U.S. equities as collateral, then added Binance’s bStock. In August it went live on Robinhood Chain, where QQQ, SPY and NVDA can be posted against USDG.

But financing is only half of what tokenized equities need. Nearly all of this year’s tokenized-equity infrastructure has gone into perpetual futures, and almost none into options.

TermMax Alpha is where that changes: physical delivery options, with no liquidation before expiry. The conversion price is fixed when the position is opened, and the position is settled by physical delivery at expiry. A directionally correct position therefore cannot be knocked out by a few minutes of volatile trading in thin liquidity — the failure mode that makes perpetuals unsuitable at the illiquid end of tokenized equities.

This no-liquidation design rests on a choice running through the whole protocol: when liquidation does happen, it settles by physical delivery, with collateral delivered directly to the lender rather than sold into the market. The usual assumption — that collateral can be sold at fair value on demand — holds for ETH and fails for a tokenized equity with a few million dollars of depth.

On the institutional side, TermPrime completed its first live trade on Canton Network at the end of June and has since grown its counterparty network to nine institutions.

TermMax runs an early validator node on Canton, and TermPrime is ready to support lending business for institutions there through open markets.

TermMax holds a DeFiSafety Process Quality Review score of 93%, matching Aave V3.

“What we set out to do is not to teach traditional institutions DeFi. It is to let DeFi grow into something professional enough to genuinely serve finance.” – Jerry Li, Co-founder and CEO, TermMax.

What TermMax wants to be is not another lending protocol, but the on-chain interest rate curve itself.

About TermMax

TermMax is a fixed-rate, fixed-term borrowing and lending marketplace built by Term Structure Labs, live on mainnet since April 2025 and deployed across 10 EVM-compatible chains, where it runs 60 fixed-rate markets and 40 strategy vaults. The protocol splits debt into three tradable tokens: FT (principal), XT (interest and option value) and GT (an ERC-721 receipt for leveraged positions). Professional Curators set target APR ranges across isolated markets and manage strategy vaults, and liquidations settle by physical delivery of collateral. Co-founder and CEO Jerry Li has 25 years in global financial markets and served as Managing Director at Deutsche Bank, running fixed income and FX for Greater China.
