The other iPhone handsets such as 4S and 5C have failed to make some space in the listing. Another interesting thing to be noted is, the top premium phone, iPhone 5s will soon be made available in India for the cheapest price.

Not just this, they are also looking forward to locally manufacture iPhone SE in India sometime soon. Regarding this, CyberMedia says, "Various versions of iPhone fill up the top 5 premium category smartphones in the states of Delhi, Gujarat, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Punjab, indicating that iPhone is not a metro affair only in India."

This drop in iPhone prices will surely gain some more attention of Indian smartphone buyers. When it comes to Android, we already know that South Korean giant, Samsung and Oneplus are playing a top role here. The popular brands such as Oppo and Vivo are also trying to toughen this competition.
