Apple iPhone Xs, iPhone Xs Max and iPhone XR will be available on Airtel Online Store starting September 28
Airtel will start accepting pre-bookings for the new iPhone Xs and iPhone Xs Max beginning September 21. iPhone XR pre-orders will be accepted on Airtel Online Store starting October 19.
Bharti Airtel has just announced that it will be selling the new iPhone Xs, iPhone Xs Max and iPhone XR through the Airtel Online Store staring September 28. The Airtel Online Store will start accepting pre-bookings for the iPhone Xs and iPhone Xs Max starting September 21, while pre-bookings for the so called ‘cheaper’ iPhone XR will begin on October 19.
The new iPhone Xs models will also be made available through Apple resellers in India from September 28. The iPhone XR will be up for pre-orders from October 19, and will be available starting October 26.
Airtel has not yet announced any bundled telecom offers with the new iPhones, but one can expect to buy them on EMIs that come with free data and calling postpaid plans from Airtel. However, after combining Airtel’s EMIs with the downpayment one has to make for the phone, customers end up paying more for the iPhone X in the long run than its actual price in India.
Last year, Airtel had listed the iPhone X on its online store with a Rs 10,000 cashback for customers purchasing using Citibank Credit Cards. Reliance Jio had also listed the iPhone X on its website with a 70 percent buyback offer for its subscribers. One can expect similar cashback offers on the new iPhones this year.
Here’s what the new iPhones will cost in India.
