            AnonD-706668, 12 Jul 2019once upon a time i was curious about Iphone and its camera ... moreAppe once was the best in the business, but no more.
            Battery life
            Canera configurations
            Form factors
            Display sizes
            High, mid and low end phones
            Compared when apple was the best there was no so much choices in the android world but sadly apple fans still are in denial.

              If Apple wants to sell iphones in India, start using contract model like 24 months contract which is everywhere except india. So they can sell more phones in India.

                Hardware quality also needs to keep in mind for made in India iphones.

                  Wow, Apple just targets the India market specifically for their 3 and 4 years old models. They surely know what's up, these gonna sell like sliced bread.

                    once upon a time i was curious about Iphone and its camera but not now. After using iphone for almost 5 years. I am now feeling Android is Android...No OS can beat Android...Android means Freedom....And also camera is huge better because Android now using large camera sensor...

                      And lets see how much price will actually drop

                        It will take atleast 2 months for prices to take affect, they might let current XS and XR stock deplete first and by 2 months newer iPhones will be announced then older models might get sudden price drop and Apple might advertise newer ones as India's first high end iPhones

                          Not sure, why you had assumed that Apple will sell their handsets at lower price in India. Earlier they were importing those handsets from outside India which was attracting higher excise, custom and import duty along with currency rates fluctuations due to which final cost to consumers were increasing. So, in order to reduce this extra cost, Apple decided to manufacture their handsets in India under ‘Make in India’ initiative for tax concessions offered by the Govt. of India. But Apple had earlier stated that they will not reduce the selling price of their handset offered to final consumers and use this margin of saved money for future expansion in India.

                              Of course India can still get the newest iPhones. But Apple would prefer that the Indian market buy older/cheaper iPhones, than to turn to their Android rivals. It's just a numbers game.

                                Good news. Made in India products for Indians, Made in China products for Chinese and Made in U.S.A. products for Americans.

                                  I thought iPhone 6 are terminated?
