iPhone 16 Listed at Rs 69,900 on Flipkart
Apple's iPhone 16 is available on Flipkart at Rs 69,900 for the 128GB base model. The 256GB version is priced at Rs 79,900, while the 512GB option is currently unavailable on the platform. With Flipkart Axis Bank or SBI credit card offers, the price can drop to Rs 66,405, and exchange deals may lower it further.
The handset, introduced in 2024, uses Apple's A18 chip and runs iOS 18, with long-term software support expected. Its 6.1-inch OLED screen reaches 2,000 nits peak brightness and refreshes at 60Hz. The camera setup includes a 48MP main sensor, a 12MP rear companion, and a 12MP front sensor; video can reach 4K at 60fps and 1080p at 240fps. It supports eSIM and a physical SIM. The box includes a cable but no charging brick.
Flipkart lists the 128GB model at Rs 69,900 and the 256GB version at Rs 79,900; the 512GB option is unavailable. Eligible Flipkart Axis Bank or SBI credit cards can lower the price to Rs 66,405, and exchanging an older device may reduce it further.
Discounts on a prior-year flagship may broaden access to premium smartphones for budget-conscious buyers, students, and creators. Lower upfront costs through card offers or exchanges could shift upgrade timing, potentially increasing e-waste if older devices are traded or discarded. Retailers and card issuers may see higher transaction volumes, while Apple may extend ecosystem engagement. Actual effects depend on affordability, trade-in handling, and whether buyers truly need the device.
