According to a banner within the “Mobiles” category on Flipkart, the iPhone 17’s price is set to drop below Rs 80,000 during the Big Billion Days Sale 2026. While the exact pricing remains under wraps, we can anticipate the price will be inclusive of bank discounts and other offers. Buyers can expect a 10 per cent discount via Flipkart Axis Bank and ICICI Bank credit cards. Moreover, EMI and exchange offers might also help ease the purchase for customers.

Flipkart will unveil the exact offer pricing for all iPhones on 26th September, 2026, according to its microsite. Buyers can expect discounts on iPhone 15, iPhone 16, iPhone Air and iPhone 17 Pro series, among other models.

iPhone 17: Should you buy?

Considering the smartphone's starting price of Rs 98,900 on Flipkart (with offers under 94,400), a price under Rs 80,000 can be a good bargain for buyers planning to get the non-Pro iPhone.

iPhone 17 gets a 6.3-inch Super Retina XDR OLED screen. Under the hood, the IP68-rated device sports an A19 chip. It ships with iOS 28 out-of-the-box. The device sports a dual 48MP main + 48MP ultrawide lens on the rear and an 18MP Center Stage selfie camera. iPhone 18, the successor to the iPhone 17, is expected to debut early next year.
