iPhone 17 still at old price on Flipkart, save up to Rs 21,000 with bank offer
Apple has raised iPhone 17 prices after the iPhone 18 Pro launch, but Flipkart still sells it at the old price with a bank discount.
Apple has launched its new phone series. The iPhone 18 Pro series and the much-discussed iPhone Duo are now in the market. But as often happens, prices of older models have gone up with the new launch, and the same has happened this time too.
The company has now raised prices of the iPhone 17 and iPhone Air that launched last year. When the iPhone 17 launched, its starting price was Rs 82,900. Now the same phone is available on Apple's official website for Rs 99,900, a direct increase of Rs 17,000. This means buying the iPhone 17 now would cost close to Rs 1 lakh. But there is some relief here.
Even though Apple has raised prices, the iPhone 17 is still available on Flipkart at the old price. On Flipkart, the phone is still listed starting at Rs 82,900. It is available in three variants: 256GB, 512GB and 1TB. On top of that, a bank discount of Rs 4,000 is also being offered.
With the bank offer applied, the same phone can be had for just Rs 78,900. That means the phone that costs Rs 99,900 on the Apple Store is available on Flipkart for Rs 78,900, a direct saving of about Rs 21,000. For those thinking of buying the iPhone 17, now is the time, since Flipkart could raise its price later as well.
Despite the price hike, the phone's features remain top class. It has a 6.3-inch OLED display that supports a 120Hz refresh rate, making scrolling and gaming completely smooth. It also comes with Dynamic Island and Face Unlock.
On the camera front, it has two rear cameras, both 48 megapixels, which produce sharp photos. For selfies, there is an 18-megapixel Center Stage front camera, which is also considered best for video calling. It also has a separate Capture Button and Action Button for taking photos.
Meanwhile, pre-order bookings for the iPhone 18 Pro series and iPhone Duo, launched on September 9, have also begun. The iPhone 18 Pro starts at Rs 1,64,900, and a bank discount of up to Rs 7,000 is available on it too. Sales of the new phone in India will officially begin from September 18.
But if your budget is around Rs 80,000 and you want a great iPhone rather than the latest one, do not miss the iPhone 17 deal on Flipkart. Saving Rs 21,000 is no small thing.
