Last week Apple partnered with Flipkart to make it authorized online reseller in India, ahead of the launch of iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus smartphones in India next month. Today Flipkart has announced that it will start taking pre-orders for both the phones starting tomorrow midnight.
To remind you, both the new iPhones are powered by an Apple A10 Fusion chip and have a water and dust resistant body with IP67 ratings. These also have a new home button that is now press sensitive with the new generation Taptic Engine and houses the Touch ID fingerprint sensor. The iPhone 7 Plus also has dual 12MP rear cameras.
The Apple iPhone 7 starts at Rs. 60,000 for the 32GB version and goes up to Rs. 80,000 for the 256GB variant, while the iPhone 7 Plus starts at Rs. 72,000 for the 32GB version and goes up to Rs. 92,000 for the 256GB variant.
Both the phones are now available for pre-order on Flipkart on Thursday, September 29th at 23:59 PM and will launch in India on October 7th.
As a special offer Citibank credit card holders can get Rs 10,000 cashback which will be credited in 90 days from the date of purchase which is not a bad deal if you ask us. This brings the price of the iPhone 7 effectively to just Rs.50000 post the discount for the base version and Rs.62000 for the iPhone 7 Plus 32GB model.
