It was expected that the price of the iPhone 15 series, which preceded it, would decrease following the release of the iPhone 16 series. In 2023, the iPhone 15 series was introduced with a starting price of Rs 79,999.
Flipkart is now offering it for Rs 69,900. However, the e-commerce firm is hoping to lower the price even more in anticipation of the Big Billion Days sale, which is quickly approaching. Flipkart has revealed through the app that all devices, including the iPhone 15 series, which includes the iPhone 15, 15 Plus, 15 Pro, and 15 Pro Max, would enjoy fantastic discounts. The precise phone discounts have not been made public on the website. And for that you have to wait till September 23, when Flipkart will disclose the discounted prices. Meanwhile, the question persists: Should you buy an iPhone 15?
iPhone 15 price drop: Should you buy it?
It is true that the iPhone 15 series is a year-old generation. And the newly launched iPhone 16 series seems to have many more capabilities than the iPhone 15. Being said that, we don’t think buying the last gen model is a bad idea, especially if you have a budget for Pro models. iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max will get all the software updates as the iPhone 16. The most awaited Apple Intelligence will also feature in the 15 Pro models. Although the manufacturing for iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max has already stopped, it is noteworthy that the few left on shelves will be available for you to purchase.
Talking about the base models, both iPhone 15 and 15 Plus are eligible for iOS 18 and every customisation it offers. While the iPhone 16 base models have a revamped design, the Pro models resemble the 15 Pros.
iPhone 15 vs iPhone 16
The iPhone 15 series is powered by the A16 Bionic chipset and excels in multitasking, instant app load and is smooth even when playing a demanding game. Not to mention, iPhones are known for impeccable video recording. So, whether you are a creator or simply a mobile gamer who wants to push your phone to the max, the iPhone 15’s processing power is sure to impress. While the iPhone 16 series packs the latest A18 chipset, A16 chip and A17 chip are also significantly faster.
Both the iPhone 16 and the iPhone 15 share the same display. You get a 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR screen on both iPhones. The panels support for 2000nits of peak brightness and Full HD+ resolution.
Coming to the camera, there are very minor changes. The iPhone 16 has the same 48-megapixel main camera with f/1.6 aperture and 2x zoom via sensor crop. It is accompanied by the same 12-megapixel camera but with a better f/2.2 aperture in comparison to f/2.4 seen on the iPhone 15. On the iPhone 16, you get a new Camera Control button as well, which helps quickly capture photos and also makes zooming in or out process easier.
Overall, the iPhone 15 series is still relevant, even after the iPhone 16.
