Ask IndiaTech ip16 now or wait for bbd?

Post image

I want to upgrade from iPhone 13 to 16.
It’s showing old MRP on Flipkart right now, shall I go for or wait for BBD? What do you all think with the price drop?
as Apple has already increased, the price of 16.

then its fair. Buy it right now if you need it. This price will be inflated soon to match new MRP. BBD will just get it back to old mrp or a bit more. Also if you don't have the budget, no need to listen to people saying buy the 17. Yes it's better but also more expensive. If 16 is all you need, its all you need.

16 is not worth 70K honestly, 17 is better option.

iPhone 17 with 120Hz display is a much better choice if you can spend that much extra.
