The iPhone 18 Pro series has gone on sale in India, with buyers seen at Apple Saket and other retail stores checking out the new variable aperture camera and A20 Pro chip, according to businesstoday.in.
Meanwhile, timesnownews.com reports that Reliance Digital has launched a festive discount on the iPhone 17 Pro 256GB, bringing its effective price down to Rs 56,990. The offer includes a flat in-store discount of Rs 9,910, an exchange value of up to Rs 55,000 on an eligible phone like the iPhone 15 Pro, an exchange bonus of Rs 10,000, and Rs 3,000 bank cashback. The iPhone 17 Pro Max 256GB is available at an effective price of Rs 71,990 under similar terms.
The final price for buyers depends on the exchange device's model and condition, with the maximum benefits not guaranteed for all phones.
Indian Opinion Analysis
Both sources offer neutral reporting of separate developments: businesstoday.in covers launch-day excitement, while timesnownews.com details a discount deal. Neither outlet criticises Apple's pricing or the terms of the offer. The coverage is straightforward retail news. A balanced reading shows the iPhone 18 Pro launch is generating initial interest, but the heavy discount on the previous model may attract price-conscious buyers. Reliance Digital's calculation using the iPhone 15 Pro as the benchmark suggests the effective price is a marketing figure, not a guarantee for every customer.
