Flipkart Big Billion Days or Amazon Great Indian Festival: Where Should You Buy Your iPhone?

Flipkart and Amazon are gearing up for their biggest sales of the year, with massive discounts across categories. This is also the best time to grab an iPhone at its lowest price. As usual, Apple's iPhone launch event takes place just ahead of these sales—this year, the iPhone 17 series will debut on September 9.

Following the launch, Apple typically reduces prices on previous-generation iPhones, and both Flipkart and Amazon add attractive deals and bank offers, making them even more affordable. This year, the iPhone 16 series is expected to get heavy discounts along with other models. But which platform gives you the best deal? Let's find out.

Where Should You Buy Your iPhone?

As of now, neither Flipkart nor Amazon has disclosed their iPhone offers, but Flipkart has started teasing discounts on the iPhone 16 series, while Amazon is highlighting deals on Samsung's S series.

If you're looking for the latest standard models like the iPhone 16 or 15, Flipkart Big Billion Days sale tends to offer better deals. On the other hand, Amazon often provides steep price cuts on older iPhones—last year, for instance, the iPhone 13 saw its biggest drop during the Great Indian Festival sale. In addition, Amazon also offers extra coupon discounts on top of bank offers, which can further reduce the final price.

On the other hand, last year Flipkart offered massive discounts on the iPhone 15 series, including both the Pro models. Based on that trend, we can expect the iPhone 16 series to see significant price cuts on Flipkart this year as well, with the standard iPhone 16 likely dropping to around ₹60,000-₹65,000.

Both Amazon and Flipkart have yet to reveal their exact discounts; we'd suggest you keep an eye on both platforms, but if you're planning to buy the iPhone 16 series specifically, Flipkart may be your best bet.
