iPhone 16 Pro, Pro Max, iPhone 15 Models Discontinued in India — Here’s Where You Can Still Buy Them

Following the introduction of the iPhone 17 series in India, Apple has now removed several older iPhone models from its online store. The company has discontinued four models: the iPhone 16 Pro, iPhone 16 Pro Max, iPhone 15, and iPhone 15 Plus as part of its regular lineup update.

The iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max have been taken off Apple's official website to make room for their successors, the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max. Moreover, the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus are no longer available directly from Apple.

Which iPhones Are Gone?

• iPhone 16 Pro
• iPhone 16 Pro Max
• iPhone 15
• iPhone 15 Plus

Can You Still Buy Them?

Yes, but not from Apple. While these models are no longer listed on the Apple Store, customers can still find them through third-party retailers, refurbished stores, and major e-commerce platforms like Amazon and Flipkart.

With both platforms preparing for their annual festive sales - Flipkart's Big Billion Days and Amazon's Great Indian Festival - buyers can expect significant discounts on the iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max. However, availability will only last until stocks run out.

Things to Keep in Mind Before Purchase

While discontinued models might be appealing due to lower prices, there are some factors to consider:

• Limited Availability: Stocks may run out quickly during festive sales.
• No Direct Purchase from Apple: Buyers must rely on third-party sellers since these models are no longer sold officially by Apple.

A Smart Choice?

If you're seeking flagship features at a reduced cost, purchasing an iPhone 16 Pro or Pro Max during upcoming sales could be wise. However, remember that these models are no longer part of Apple's active lineup. This means future support and long-term availability might be limited.
