If you are planning to buy a new iPhone 16, now might be the perfect time. With the ongoing Great Indian Festival on Amazon and Flipkart's the Big Billion Days sale, Apple's iPhone 16 is available at heavily discounted prices, making it one of the best smartphone deals this Diwali season.
iPhone 16 Price Drop After iPhone 17 Series Launch: Check Best Offers, Deals Here
Apple launched the iPhone 16 in India last year at a starting price of Rs 79,900. However, with the introduction of the iPhone 17 series, the company officially reduced the price of the iPhone 16 by Rs 10,000, bringing it down to Rs 69,999. Now, during the festive sales, customers can grab the device at prices much lower than the official MRP, thanks to platform discounts, bank offers and exchange deals.

Amazon Great Indian Festival Vs Flipkart Big Billion Days: Which Offers iPhone 16 in Lowest Prices
As part of the Amazon Great Indian Festival, the iPhone 16 is currently listed at Rs 66,990, which means Amazon is offering a flat Rs 3,009 discount over the reduced official price.
In addition to this base discount, Amazon is providing further price cuts through various bank offers. Customers using Axis Bank Credit Card EMI, IDFC First Bank Credit Card EMI, or Bank of Baroda Credit Card EMI options can get a flat Rs 4,000 discount, which significantly brings down the effective price of the iPhone 16 during checkout.
iPhone 16 Under Rs 50,000 On Flipkart Big Billion Days Sale 2025
On the other hand, Flipkart is offering an even more attractive deal during its Big Billion Days 2025 sale. The iPhone 16 (128GB variant) is listed at Rs 58,999, a substantial reduction from the official price of Rs 69,999.
Flipkart customers can further reduce the price by Rs 2,950 if they use a Flipkart Axis Bank card, taking the effective price even lower. Additionally, Flipkart is offering attractive exchange deals, with up to Rs 55,790 off when trading in an old smartphone, depending on the device's model, condition, and working status.
This means that in some cases, customers could purchase a brand-new iPhone 16 for under Rs 50,000, making it one of the best Diwali tech deals of 2025.
Flipkart is also offering Rs 1,500 off on HDFC Bank Credit Card EMI transactions, adding further value to the purchase.
Apple iPhone 16 Specifications and Features
The iPhone 16 features a 6.1-inch OLED display with support for HDR content, True Tone technology, and a peak brightness of up to 2,000 nits. However, unlike higher-end models, this display offers a 60Hz refresh rate. Despite that, it delivers crisp visuals and smooth performance for everyday use.
Under the hood, the device is powered by Apple's A18 chipset, the same chip that supports Apple Intelligence features introduced in recent iOS updates. This ensures high performance, efficiency, and compatibility with next-gen software features.
Apple claims that the iPhone 16 offers up to 22 hours of video playback on a single charge. It also supports wireless charging and carries an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance, ensuring durability and peace of mind.
In terms of photography, the iPhone 16 is equipped with a 48MP Fusion camera that supports 2x optical zoom, offering improved detail and clarity in images. Alongside it, there is a 12MP macro camera for close-up shots. For selfies and video calls, the front houses a 12MP selfie camera, maintaining Apple's reputation for excellent image quality across all lenses.
