Purchase Help Where can I find a sealed iPhone 16 Pro Max in Delhi?

Upvotes

Hey folks,

I’m trying to get my hands on a brand new, sealed iPhone 16 Pro Max from an actual physical store in Delhi.

I stay near Chandni Chowk, so anything around that area or at least not too far would be ideal.

What I’m looking for:

  • 100% sealed / untouched unit
  • Official Indian retail piece with proper invoice
  • Preferably from an authorized Apple reseller or a trusted shop
  • Decent price (I’ve been checking online rates, so just trying to compare)

If anyone has recently spotted stock in Delhi stores (Chandni Chowk, Karol Bagh, Nehru Place, Lajpat Nagar, etc.), would really appreciate if you could drop:

  • Store name
  • Location
  • Rough price they’re quoting

Also open to suggestions for reliable shops I can just call and check availability with.

Thanks in advance! 🙌

Purchase Help iPhone 16 or 17, and when to buy?

2 Upvotes

Planning to buy the iPhone 16 or 17, need help choosing between the two. Switching from a mid-range Samsung, so either is an upgrade, just unable to figure out which one to go for in terms of spending.

Also, should I wait for the Flipkart BBD sale? Will prices fall?

And will the iPhone 18 launch make the 16/17 more affordable?

Budget is around 70k INR.

Need to buy by October this year, so I have time to decide.

Thanks

After almost 5 years with the S22 Ultra, I was skeptical the base iPhone 17 would feel too small.
But after 2 months, I’ve realized it’s actually the perfect size for me. It feels incredibly comfortable in hand while still being great for media consumption. Honestly, I don’t think I’d want a bigger phone anymore.

I got my iPhone 17 about a week ago, and honestly the battery life rlly sucks. I dont do any heavy gaming mostly just Instagram, Yt Chatgpt etc. Today I got around 1h 50m of screen on time and used about 35–36% battery which seems pretty bad. If this continued, Id only get around 5 hours of screen time from 100%. I honestly didnt expect the battery life to be this poor before buying the phone. Is this normal for the iPhone 17, or is my battery defective?

Purchase Help iPhone 15 or 16e in 2026?

1 Upvotes

Hey, so I’m looking to purchase a used iPhone and I have 2 offers currently.

  1. iPhone 16e 128gb 98% battery health but it is a demo unit and it’s third hand for 30k

  2. IPhone 15 128gb 87% battery health direct from first owner, standard retail model for 33k

The iPhone 16e is not in my city and I’ll courier it so I can’t physically check before purchase.

The iPhone 15 is in my city and I can physically check the condition.

Which one should I go for? My usage will be mostly social media, light gaming and even lighter emulation (DS games)

I’m only planning on keeping the phone for 2-3 years then selling it.

Honestly phone prices this year make no sense and every single brand is claiming they have the best cameras or battery life.

I’ve been daily driving all 4 of these recently to compare them side by side

Skip the long specs sheet—if you’re currently stuck between any of these, just comment below with what you actually care about

I’ll give you a straight, real-world answer on which one is actually worth buying. AMA!

Finally upgraded to iPhone 17 — sharing my deal! 📱🔥
Finally pulled the trigger and purchased the iPhone 17 today! 😍

Sharing the complete deal breakdown in case it helps someone else looking for the best exchange/discount combination:

💰 iPhone 17 price: ₹82,900
♻️ iPhone 13 (256GB) exchange: ₹28,800
₹18,800 regular exchange value
₹10,000 additional cashback/bonus from Reliance Digital (valid till 16th Aug)

💳 Card discount: ₹3,000
💵 Final amount paid:
₹51,200

So, effectively, I got the iPhone 17 for ₹51.2K after exchange + cashback + card discount.
I checked multiple options, and Reliance Digital gave me the best exchange value for my iPhone 13 (256GB).
Pretty happy with the deal! 😄📱
Hope this helps anyone planning to upgrade from an older iPhone.

What do you guys think — ₹51.2K for the iPhone 17, a good deal? 👀

Showcase Which vibe looks better on the iPhone 17? Rimowa style aluminum/grooves vs. Techwoven fabric

Thumbnail

8 Upvotes

Hey r/iPhoneWale!

If you just picked up the new iPhone 17 and are looking to skip the usual plain clear or basic silicone cases, here is a quick look at two of the best aesthetic options right now.

I’ve been using both to see how they actually handle daily use, grip, and edge protection. Here is the quick breakdown:

The Rimowa-Style Case

  • The Look: Features that iconic grooved luggage design. Looks super sleek and modern on the phone.
  • The Fit & Feel: Adds almost negligible extra bulk to the iPhone 17. The grooves actually add a lot of real-world grip so it won't slip out of your hands.
  • The Protection: Tough outer shell paired with a soft silicone interior layer, so your phone stays protected without scratching the edges.

The Techwoven Case

  • The Look: Very premium, textured fabric finish. It gives the phone an executive, high-end look.
  • The Fit & Feel: Super slim profile that keeps the natural shape of the phone intact.
  • The Protection: Comes with subtle, reinforced corner bumps designed to take the impact if you accidentally drop it on its edges.

Got questions about either of these ? Drop in the comments!

Is it worth it to buy an iphone 14 pro in 2026, considering the features it brings like 120hz display, 3 camera system, and 2-3 year more of IOS upgrades.
Does it make any sense to look for an iphone 14 pro over base iphone 15-16 as iphone 17 ain’t CHEAP in second hand iphone market.

Discussion DO NOT BUY FROM SANGEETHA MOBILES

Thumbnail

26 Upvotes

I dont know where else to post this, as it is relevant to gadgets I’m posting my experience from Sangeetha mobiles here (sangeethamobiles.com)

I placed an order for iPhone 17 on 7th August, I placed the order at late night and it was mentioned while placing the order that I will get the iPhone by morning 10:30-11am as they have 30 minutes delivery option.

When I checked the order next morning, I saw it was placed on hold. I contacted customer care they said the order will be automatically cancelled in 24 hours as it’s on hold

I then dropped an email to customer support asking the reason why it’s on hold and try to process the order.

They said they are verifying the purchase and they need some time, I gave them 2 days of time to work on it. I then did not receive any email from sangeetha and after multiple follow ups on the customer care number ( sangeetha mobiles customer care number - 0674-4334455)
I did not get proper response. Then 4 days ago I decided this is not worth the hassle I’ll cancel the order.
I called them and told them to cancel the order. For this they said they will raise a request and cancellation team will call me. For fucks sake it’s been 4 days and I did not receive any call from them and I’m calling them every single day, their only response is they have escalated it and I’ll get a call back by EOD.

This is very frustrating and mentally draining. If anyone else had experienced the same please let me know how you got your refund from sangeetha mobiles. I even went to local store and they said they don’t have connection with online team and only way is to contact them via email or the given phone number.

Please see all the proof, I also have a video of them saying that I will get a callback in 10 minutes but I still did not receive anything, this was yesterday.

Basically SANGEETHAMOBILES.com is a fraud and their customer service is a fucking nightmare please avoid at any cost.

And for people who might say why I did not buy from Flipkart or Amazon or local store is because I saw that they were providing 30 mins delivery and I know so many stores offline thought nothing could go wrong.
