iPhone Duo price in India
With a starting price of Rs 2,99,900 for the baseline 256GB model, the top-end variant reaches a price of Rs 4,49,900, establishing the iPhone Duo as the first iPhone in history to breach the Rs 4 lakh threshold in the Indian market. Launch perks include trade-in credits between Rs 4,500 and Rs 81,500, up to six months of no-cost EMI terms, and instant cashback up to Rs 7,000 on ICICI Bank, Axis Bank, and American Express cards. Buyers can also pick up two official accessories built with MagSafe and Qi2 compatibility: the Duo Folio case featuring a built-in kickstand for Rs 14,900, or a modular two-piece shell for Rs 8,900.
Across the industry, phone makers have been raising prices due to a sharp spike in memory chip costs, driven largely by the massive global demand for AI data centres. Apple has officially unveiled the iPhone Duo, its first-ever folding smartphone, and essentially rewriting pricing benchmarks for mobile phones in India. Apple isn’t alone in hiking prices either — in fact, it’s arguably the last major company to do so.
