Yes, the company has quietly made the price change for the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus variants that will be still available through Apple and other channels in the country. <\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">All eyes have been on the new iPhone Air, and the iPhone 17 Pro series, especially in the new orange and blue colour ways, but the most popular iPhone in the last few quarters becomes even more appealing for people, who will get Apple AI benefits along with other features.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\"><strong>iPhone 16 And 16 Plus Price Cut In India: How Much You Pay Now<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">iPhone 16 price in India now starts at Rs 69,900 which is Rs 10,000 less than its original price tag. However, you only get the 128GB version from Apple and have to look at other platforms for a better deal and other storage options.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The iPhone 16 Plus is also getting a price revision, which now costs Rs 79,900 for the 128GB model, and Rs 89,900 if you want the 256GB variant. This is also a Rs 10,000 price cut from Apple which could be higher on other platforms in the next few weeks.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">To be fair, the official price cut on Apple\u2019s website will most likely get you higher discounts across special sales in the next few weeks, and it won\u2019t be the worst idea to wait for them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\"><strong>Apple iPhone 16 And 16 Plus Specifications<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"7\" class=\"story_para_7\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">You get a handy 6.1-inch Super Retina OLED display with the iPhone 16 while the 16 Plus carries a bigger screen which makes it slightly heavier. It comes with a glass body that makes it easy to use. Both are powered by the A18 chipset with 8GB RAM and offered with up to 512GB storage. <\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"8\" class=\"story_para_8\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The 16 series also has a dual 48MP + 12MP camera setup along with a 12MP FaceTime camera on the front. Apple will offer its AI features when it rolls out in 2026 and you get it with 25W wired charging support.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atawrap\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atadetailwrp\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd ataname\"><span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atthumb\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"authorimg\" src=\"https:\/\/images.news18.com\/ibnlive\/uploads\/2023\/11\/aadeetya-3-2023-11-9de48efa65a9ed8ed13a8932cadb6d5a.jpg?impolicy=website&amp;width=60&amp;height=60\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"\/><\/figure>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd attitle\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/byline\/s-aadeetya-21044.html\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atamail\">S Aadeetya<\/a><\/p>\n<p>S Aadeetya, Special Correspondent at News18 Tech, accidentally got into journalism 10 years ago, and since then, has been part of established media houses covering the latest trends in technology and helping fr&#8230;<span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd aurpdebtn\">Read More<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>S Aadeetya, Special Correspondent at News18 Tech, accidentally got into journalism 10 years ago, and since then, has been part of established media houses covering the latest trends in technology and helping fr&#8230;<!-- --> <span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd aurpdebtn\">Read More<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-ff263f4b724d470d jsx-1934806522 artcta\">\n<div style=\"font-family:Inter;font-size:17px;line-height:28px\"><span data-olk-copy-source=\"MessageBody\">Get latest technology updates, including phone launches, gadget reviews, AI advancements.
