Apple usually lowers the prices of previous year’s models when it introduces a new line of iPhones. Right after the launch of the iPhone 16 series on Monday, September 9, at its “It’s Glowtime” event, the Cupertino tech giant slashed the price of the previous-generation iPhone models by Rs 10,000 from their launch price. Apple has also discontinued some older iPhone models in India to make way for the latest iPhone 16 series.
iPhone 15 and iPhone 14 get price cut in India
Last year’s iPhone 15 and the 2022 iPhone 14 are now Rs 10,000 cheaper on the Apple Store online. The iPhone 15 is currently listed for Rs 69,900 for the base 128GB variant, which is down from its original launch price of Rs 79,900. The 256GB version is listed for Rs 79,900 instead of Rs 89,900, while the 512GB storage variant is available for Rs 99,900, down from Rs 1,09,900.
Similarly, the iPhone 14 price in India now starts at Rs 59,900 for the base model with 128GB storage, which is a drop from the previous price of Rs 69,900. The 256GB and 512GB storage models are available for Rs 69,900 and Rs 89,900, respectively. The iPhone 14 was originally scheduled to launch in 2022 with a starting price of Rs 79,900, but Apple reduced the prices last year after the launch of the iPhone 15 series.
The iPhone 15 is available in Black, Blue, Green, Pink, and Yellow. The iPhone 14 can be purchased in Blue, Midnight Black, Purple, Red, Starry White, and Yellow. Customers are advised to check the latest prices of these phones on e-commerce sites like Amazon and Flipkart to avail additional discounts and offers.
Buying previous-generation iPhone models can be a worthwhile option if you don’t want to spend the extra money on the latest models. Apple typically provides about five years of software updates for its phones. The new models won’t have access to some of Apple’s new software features that are part of Apple Intelligence.
The iPhone 16 price in India starts at Rs 79,900, while the price of the larger iPhone 16 Plus model starts at Rs 89,900.
Apple has also discontinued the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max models in India to make room for the latest phones. The brand is also no longer selling the iPhone 13 and Watch Series 9.
