If you want to try an iPhone this year without spending a huge amount of money on the latest iPhone 17 series, there’s an iPhone model that’s right for everyone. Although Apple positions the iPhone 16e as the most affordable iPhone that one can buy, e-commerce giant Amazon has a different and unarguably better deal than Apple itself! The iPhone 15 from 2023 is the best entry point into the Apple ecosystem.
Apple enthusiasts and budget-conscious shoppers can head over to Amazon, as the price of the Apple iPhone 15 (128 GB) is at its lowest ever. At an astonishing deal price of just Rs 49,999, the vanilla iPhone 15 undercuts the iPhone 16e as the cheapest iPhone that one can buy today. It may not have the modern Apple Intelligence features of the iPhone 16e but everywhere else, this old stalwart can deliver a better iPhone experience than the newer models.
iPhone 15 deal on Amazon: All details here
With a discount of Rs 9,901, the iPhone 15 is now available on Amazon at a price of Rs 49,999 for the base 128GB variant. For those seeking more storage in order to future-proof their purchase, the iPhone 15 comes in a 256Gb storage variant, retailing at Rs 59,999. This variant directly competes with the iPhone 16e’s base variant, which only offers 128GB storage.
Unlike the iPhone 16e’s launch colours, the iPhone 15 continues to be available in all its launch colours – blue, block, pink, green, and yellow.
Additionally, if you have older smartphone available for exchange, you can lower the price further, thus getting an even better deal on this midrange iPhone.
But is the iPhone 15 worth buying at Rs 50,000?
The iPhone 15 has been around for two years now and for most people, that may seem outdated. Even Apple doesn’t list the iPhone 15 on its website anymore. However, the iPhone 15 offers the modern Dynamic Island display design, with a 48MP main camera that’s accompanied by a 12MP ultrawide camera. The A16 chip, along with 6GB RAM may not be capable of Apple Intelligence features, but you can download all third-party AI apps and gain an even better experience. You also get the convenience of a USB-C charging port and a relatively durable Ceramic Shield glass. You get the latest iOS 26 experience and Apple is likely to deliver an additional 4 OS updates.
Hence, if you have Rs 50,000 to spend on a midrange phone and seek a premium user experience, you should consider the iPhone 15.
