Apple iPhone 17 sale in India has started on Friday with a lot of fanfare at the stores<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

iPhone 17 sales have started on Friday, 19 September in India and across many countries. People have queued in big numbers to pick up their iPhone 17, 17 Pro and iPhone Air units that have been pre-booked earlier this month. Apple Stores in Saket, Mumbai and Bengaluru have seen buyers lineup hours before the store opens on Friday, as they look to become one of the first customers to own the new iPhone 17 models in the country.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

There is a lot of excitement around the new iPhone 17 lineup<\/a>, especially the thin iPhone Air version but most of the pre-booking fanfare is for the premium iPhone 17 Pro Max version which now comes in a flashy orange colour variant.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

iPhone launches have generated a high amount of demand and interest and the aspirational value of owning an Apple device continues to rule the market. Apple\u2019s iPhone growth in India has been significant in recent years and the iPhone 17 series is likely to push the figures<\/a> higher.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The new iPhone 17 models have refreshing changes, hardware upgrades, especially with the base variant which now gets a 120Hz ProMotion display like the premium models, and you also get 256GB as the starting option in the market with a nominal price increase of Rs 3,000. The 17 Pro is now dearer by 15,000 compared to last year\u2019s 16 Pro in the country. <\/span><\/p>\n
