In what seems to be a very surprising twist to the Apple enthusiasts, the iPhone 13 and iPhone 15 are now selling at practically the same brand price in most of the online and offline shops in India.
Such an unexpected combination of the price left most potential buyers puzzled on which school of thought provides a better bargain between the newer iPhone 15 and the one that has yet to lose its strength, the iPhone 13.
India today reported that the iPhone 13 introduced in 2021 is now being sold at a lower price than the festivities, which will make its prices similar to the iPhone 15.
In other instances, the disparity between the two models is not over Rs 3,000, so offers will rely on the storage variant and platform specific offers.
Although the two models have some similar features in design, some differences are significant on the inside.
The iPhone 15 comes with the A16 Bionic chip, which is powerful, has better performance, and has a more advanced camera setup than the A15 Bionic processor of the iPhone 13.
Furthermore, the USB-C port is compatible with the iPhone 15, and it has been upgraded with Lightning, which a lot of users interpret as a significant benefit to their comfort, as the majority of different technologies support the USB-C.
Nevertheless, the iPhone 13 has a great appeal because of the already tested reliability, durable construction, and high quality camera system now, at a much lower price.
According to many users, the fact that the two models do not feature large performance differences does not warrant the additional cost of acquiring the new version of the new model, which is essential to people in their day to day lives.
According to experts in the retail sector, this price overlap can be considered as a larger strategy by the Apple company to sell more recent models and clear older models during the festivities.
E-commerce sites like Amazon and Flipkart are also giving bank discounts and exchange offers, which are further reducing the price difference between the two phones.
Analysts feel that this scenario presents a unique benefit to the Indian consumer the possibility of having two mighty iPhone models with no significant pricing variation.
The smarter choice could be getting the iPhone 15 for that part of the population who wants the newest hardware and the extended software support.
To consumers of average income, though, the iPhone 13 will be a fairly appealing model at an affordable price, without any significant sacrifices when it comes to functionalities.
The pricing approach of Apple has created a buzz in India, which is one of the fastest growing markets.
As rivalry to the company intensifies among premium Android brands, competitive pricing may be used to cement Apple’s position in the premium segment of the smartphone environment in the country.
