iPhone 17 at Rs 99,900 or wait for iPhone 18? Here’s what to consider
Purchasing the iPhone 17 or waiting for the upcoming iPhone 18 has become a significant dilemma for potential buyers in India. The iPhone 17, regarded as Apple's best base model yet, boasts a 6.3-inch Super Retina XDR display, A19 chip, 8GB RAM, and a camera system consisting of dual 48MP rear cameras and an 18MP front camera. Its price has increased to Rs 99,900 from Rs 82,900 due to global chip inflation and Apple's price hike across its lineup.
Meanwhile, rumors suggest the standard iPhone 18, set to launch in spring 2027, will introduce the A20 chip on TSMC's 2nm process, 12GB RAM, and Apple's in-house C2 modem, potentially delivering enhanced performance, improved thermal management, and superior connectivity. Ultimately, the decision to buy the iPhone 17 at the current price or wait for the iPhone 18 will hinge on the available price and the anticipated enhancements of the upcoming model.
