The iPhone 15, Apple’s flagship device launched just a few months ago at Rs 79,900, is now available at an unbelievable discounted rate of less than Rs 50,000. Since its grand unveiling in September, the iPhone 15 has seen a couple of online sales events that offered buyers the chance to acquire Apple’s latest phone at a reduced price. However, the current offer, even in the absence of a live sale, opens up the possibility of owning the iPhone 15 at less than Rs 50,000.

While waiting for the next official sale, those who have been eyeing the iPhone 15 now have the chance to acquire it at a price point that was previously unthinkable. Amazon, the leading online marketplace, is currently offering the recently launched iPhone 15 at a jaw-dropping price of less than Rs 50,000. However, before you rush to make the purchase, there’s a significant catch that may leave you scratching your head.

The catch: To avail of this unbeatable deal, you are required to trade in your existing iPhone 14 Pro Max, the flagship model from last year. Amazon, under its exchange offer, wants you to give away your iPhone 14 Pro to get your hands on the latest iPhone 15 at a reduced price of Rs 45, 400. It has set the exchange value of Rs 34,500 for the iPhone 14 Pro Max. This value remains same across all the storage models of 14 Pro Max.  

The iPhone 14 Pro, known for its cutting-edge features and premium specifications, is priced significantly higher than the base variant of the iPhone 15. For consumers who invested in the Pro model just a year ago, the idea of exchanging it for the base variant of the latest model seems illogical.
