Apple is giving free earphones worth Rs 6,900 to select iPhone buyers

Apple has launched its special Diwali sale in India, giving iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus buyers a festive offer. With every purchase of these models, customers will receive a free pair of limited-edition Beats Solo Buds worth Rs 6,900. The earbuds come in special packaging designed by artist Aaquib Wani, celebrating the festive themes of joy and abundance.
The offer is valid for just two days, starting today, and is available through Apple’s official store and website. While the deal excludes additional bank discounts, buyers can still claim other benefits like up to 12 months of no-cost EMI and exchange offers.
The iPhone 15 comes with a starting price of Rs 69,900 in India. There is no bank card discount on the iPhone 15 and the reason behind this is unknown. This could be because Apple recently slashed the price of the iPhone 15 series by Rs 10,000 after launching the new iPhone 16 series. Hence, as part of the Diwali sale, the company might just wanted to give a free pair of earbuds to users with the iPhone 15.
For those who are wondering, Beats recently re-entered the market and the brand is owned by Apple. The company recently introduced three products under its Beats branding. These include Beats Solo 4 on-ear headphones, and Beats Pill Bluetooth speaker. Apple is now offering customised version of the Beats Solo 4 with the iPhone 15, which is not expected to be on sale after October 4. This Diwali offer could also be its strategy to promote the new Beats brand.
However, those who are planning to buy the iPhone 16 will be able to claim some discount on the Apple Store. There is a Rs 5,000 discount offer on American Express, Axis Bank and ICICI Bank cards. This offer is applicable on the iPhone 16 Pro, iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, and iPhone 16 Pro Max. People who are buying the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus will be able to claim a Rs 3,000 bank discount. Lastly, the iPhone SE is also on sale with a bank discount offer of Rs 2,000.
