As anticipation builds for the upcoming Apple event in 2025, major e-commerce platforms Flipkart and Amazon have announced significant price cuts on the iPhone 15 series. This strategic discount aims to clear inventory ahead of the launch of Apple’s much-awaited iPhone 17, scheduled for later this month.

The price reductions apply across various iPhone 15 models, with some offers slashing prices by up to 20%. Consumers can now purchase the standard iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro at notably lower prices than their original launch tags. Flipkart and Amazon are also bundling additional deals, including exchange offers, no-cost EMI options, and cashback incentives from select banks.

Market Impact and Consumer Response

Industry analysts say this early discounting trend is typical for Apple products, as retailers look to boost sales before a new release. “Apple product launches are key moments in the tech calendar, and we often see price drops on previous models just ahead of these events,” explained tech market expert Aditi Sharma.

Consumers eager to own the latest iPhone at a lower price have welcomed these deals, with many seeking to upgrade without waiting for the new model rollout. “The price cut makes the iPhone 15 more accessible for many buyers who don’t want to pay a premium for the newest version,” said Rajesh Kumar, a Mumbai-based Apple enthusiast.

What to Expect From iPhone 17

While details about the iPhone 17 remain largely under wraps, rumors suggest major improvements in camera capabilities, battery life, and processing power. The new model is also expected to feature enhanced AI-driven functions and design refinements.

Experts advise that buyers consider their needs carefully before making purchase decisions, as the iPhone 17 may offer significant upgrades that justify waiting for the new release. However, with the iPhone 15 now more affordable, the option for an immediate upgrade looks attractive for many consumers.

iPhone 15 Amazon Discount

This is significantly lower than the original price of the smartphone, that is Rs. 69,900, which makes it a flat discount of Rs. 10,000.

iPhone 15 Price:

The smartphone price, which is around Rs 69,900 can come down even more if one applies the Credit Card discounts of Rs. 3,000 and the exchange offer. Of course, it has been on sale for lower prices before. If you want a phone right now, this could be a good deal.

Although iPhone 17 may be a major overhaul compared to the iPhone 15. However, iPhone 15 brings some meaningful features, especially in terms of the display. Right off the bat, the design of the iPhone 17 might change compared to the iPhone 15. It is expected to retain the same camera module, the Dynamic Island, and the aluminium-and-glass build. However, buying the iPhone 15 at these discounted prices would surely make sense. The overall price of the smartphone if brought closer to Rs. 50,000 could be a steal deal, making it a decent upgrade for young people.
