I would not recommend buying mobile phones in the airport. It seems to be the only electronic item which is more expensive in the airport than in the city.

However, cameras and watches are comparable, and cheaper than outside shops due to 5% tax free. If you claim tax refunds by buying at major stores in the city, there is a service fee charged by the tax refund comapny.
