Apple iPhone XR, iPhone 8 series and iPhone 7 series and Apple Watch Series 3 get a price cut in India


Apple introduced iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max at an event in the U.S. few hours back. At the event it also announced price cuts for iPhone XR, iPhone 8 series, and Apple India has also reduced the price of the models in India. This is the first official price cut on MRP for the iPhone XR since the launch last year, even though it was offered at cheaper rates with bank offers earlier this year. The iPhone XR 64GB and 128GB versions are now Rs. 27,000 cheaper.

The iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus 64GB versions have received Rs. 20,000 price cut, after a price cut last year.
