iPhone 16e Gets First Major Price Cut, Cheaper Than iPhone 15 & 14:

The Apple iPhone 16e is the least expensive Apple smartphone integrated with Apple Intelligence. Even though it lacks iconic Retro design features such as Dynamic Island, it does support MagSafe charging and comes with Apple’s most powerful iPhone chipset A18 Bionic, which is the strongest Apple for iPhones. It also has the newest updated version of the primary camera with 48MP and 2x zoom lenses.

Apple’s starting price was set to Rs 59,900 for the basic model with 128GB of internal storage. Shortly after launching the product, it was offered at a lower price than the suggested retail price. Customers could also use a bank discount of Rs 4,000, which lowers the price further, making the device more inexpensive than previously launched iPhone 15 and 14 models.

iPhone 16e discount details

At Big Basket, the Apple iPhone 16e, which has the lowest price of Rs 59,900, is now available with a discount of Rs 2,500, making the new price stand at Rs 57,400.

Moreover, it's possible to avail a discount of Rs. 4000 for HDFC credit card customers and put the phone for purchase at Rs. 53,400 which is the lowest price we have encountered.

Reasons for choosing the iPhone 16e over older iPhones

Apple Intelligence support is one convincing reason for switching from the iPhone 16e to other models. But if you are not interested in AI capabilities, then the iPhone 16e comes with A18 chip which is the most powerful. And on top of that the phone gets the latest iOS update and will receive software support longer than other models.

The model’s highest selling features should be its discounts. For example, the phone’s discounted price is less than what these two, the iphone 15 and the iphone 14, cost. These two are on older chip and the iphone 14 comes with an outdated camera setup as well.
