Republic Day Sale: iPhone 16 gets a flat Rs 10,000 discount on Flipkart

The iPhone 16, launched just four months ago, has received a significant price cut during Flipkart’s monumental sale. Originally priced higher, the 128 GB variant is now retailing for Rs 69,999. Buyers can further reduce the cost by availing themselves of additional discounts, including a Rs 2,000 flat discount for HDFC cardholders and an extra Rs 4,000 off on exchanging eligible smartphones, bringing the effective price down to Rs 63,999.

This marks a fantastic opportunity for those looking to upgrade to Apple’s latest innovations. The iPhone 16 is packed with cutting-edge features like Apple Intelligence, Camera Control, and the versatile Action button, making it a standout choice for tech enthusiasts. Furthermore, it is one of the few affordable flagship smartphones capable of running modern AAA games like Assassin’s Creed Mirage with ease.

Sporting a sleek 6.1-inch display, the iPhone 16 is among the most compact high-performance smartphones of 2025. However, its 60Hz refresh rate might feel like a limitation for users accustomed to higher refresh rates, though this is a minor trade-off given its premium build and feature set.

Other highlights include a 48 MP primary camera that supports Dolby Vision video recording in 4K, a robust glass-metal construction, an IP68 rating for water and dust resistance, and support for MagSafe wireless charging. For those in the market for a feature-rich smartphone, the discounted iPhone 16 is an unmissable deal.
