With the rollout of the iPhone 17 series across the country, many potential buyers are still contemplating over which high-end smartphone could be their best value for money.
The feature-loaded flagship iPhone 17 offers specifications which outplay the previous generation model. However, with the ongoing sale across e-commerce websites, the iPhone 16 Pro was available at an astonishing price around Rs 75,000 – it was launched last year for Rs 1,19,900. With iPhone 17 introduced at Rs 82,900 (excluding bank offers), customers are currently inclined towards the Pro model of the previous generation.
