The wait is finally over. Apple’s iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max are finally going on sale in India today. The excitement is already visible outside Apple stores in Delhi, Noida, Mumbai and Bengaluru stores, which are set to open at 8 AM. However, several Apple fans arrived hours earlier. Some fans have been waiting outside the stores since midnight to be among the first to buy the new iPhones. Our team has been at the Noida, Delhi and Bengaluru stores since 6 AM to capture the excitement on sale day.

Fans of different age groups have gathered outside the stores. Some are here to buy the new iPhones, while others are curious to get a first look at them. One Apple fan told us that he travelled from Saket to Noida to upgrade from the iPhone 17 Pro Max to the iPhone 18 Pro Max, which he had already pre-booked.

Another Apple fan told us that he has been waiting outside the store since midnight to get his hands on the iPhone 18 Pro Max in the Burgundy colour. However, he is unable to stand in the main queue as the booking was made using his friend’s card to avail a bank offer.

With the opening time getting closer, more people are expected to join the queues.

First iPhone 18 Pro buyer in Mumbai

Mukesh Patel was the first in line to purchase the iPhone 18 Pro in Mumbai. He pre-booked the Burgundy Red colour option and said he had been waiting in line since 6:00 AM. Mukesh runs a construction business and has been using the iPhone 17 Pro until now. When asked why he did not opt for the Duo, he said, “I don’t even use the Max. It feels too large, even that seems too big for me. I need a compact phone.”
