Apple has launched the iPhone XS and XS Max that will be available later this month in India and many other countries. It has also added the iPhone XR to its lineup, which will come in late October. The iPhone XS, XS Max and XR get a starting price tag of Rs 99,900, Rs 1,09,900 and Rs 76,900 respectively.
If these prices have set your pulses racing at alarming levels then it’s probably better you consider buying the other iPhone models in India for now, because there are discounts, albeit small.
The launch of new iPhones primarily is your gate pass to consider the older models, which have become cheaper now. So, which one should you look at buying? This list gives you the latest prices of all iPhone models selling in India.
It has been discontinued in most parts of the world, but the Apple iPhone 6S will be available in India, for a revised price of Rs 29,900 for the 32GB variant. Interestingly, the iPhone SE has been taken out of the company’s product lineup globally. This brings down the curtains on the last known small-sized iPhone model in the market.
The price reduction has also hit the Apple iPhone 7 which is now selling for under Rs 40,000 in the country, while the iPhone 8 Plus is still on the pricier side at Rs 69,900. Having said that, the iPhone X from last year will continue to sell in India, but with a small price cut. You can get the last year’s iPhone flagship 256GB model for Rs 1,06,900. It was earlier Rs 1,09,900.
As you already know the price of the iPhone XS Max stretches up to Rs 1.45 lakh this year in India (all thanks to the country’s taxes) and the fact that Apple still isn’t fully convinced about making in India.
Honestly, you can’t blame the company for being least interested in manufacturing its latest devices in India. After all, the iPhone 6S is still the most popular selling model in the country and that’s the one Apple is keen on making in India first.
