Apple's iPhone 16 series launch introduced four models with varying prices. Amazon's device swap program offers significant discounts on the iPhone 16 Pro, making it more affordable.
During the Glowtime event, Apple debuted the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro series, which excited tech fans who were seeking to upgrade. Four variants in this most recent lineup, all with a base storage capacity of 128 GB, are available to suit a variety of price ranges. The event, which marked a significant improvement over the iPhone 15 series, concentrated on performance, design, and AI technologies.
With the announcement that all iPhone 16 models are constructed from recycled materials, Apple highlighted sustainability. The bigger iPhone 16 Plus costs Rs 89,900 in India, while the normal iPhone 16 costs Rs 79,900.
For those wanting premium features and top-tier performance, the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max are priced at Rs 1,19,900 and Rs 1,44,900, respectively. These pricing reflect Apple's aim of segmenting the market into entry-level, mid-range, and professional consumers. Despite worldwide price increases, Indian pricing is constant and provides competitive value.
To make the upgrading process more tempting, Amazon is launching a device swap program that allows users to turn in their older cellphones for significant discounts on the most recent iPhone models, substantially lowering the whole cost. This program intends to make Apple's high-end gadgets more accessible to a larger audience. It also promotes sustainability by recycling obsolete gadgets.
iPhone 16 Pro price SLASHED on Amazon
Currently retailing at Rs 1,12,900 on Amazon, the iPhone 16 Pro has 128GB of internal storage and a stylish Natural Titanium finish. But for qualified customers, this high-end gadget is more reasonably priced thanks to Amazon's trade-in program. Customers may save up to Rs 42,750 by exchanging a fully working iPhone 15 (512GB), which essentially lowers the price of the iPhone 16 Pro to Rs 70,150.
Additionally, customers may earn an additional Rs 7,545 discount by using an Amazon Pay ICICI Bank credit card, lowering the total price to Rs 62,505. For those wishing to upgrade to Apple's newest flagship, this set of deals offers substantial discounts. Free EMI plans can also be used in conjunction with these bank incentives. When making a transaction, cardholders can also receive cashback benefits.
