Will there be a discount on iPhone 16 in Flipkart BBD 2026 Sale? Things to Know

Yes but don’t keep a lot of hopes and here’s why. Apple recently launched the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max models and like almost every year, we’ve seen Flipkart bring the newer iPhone (in this case iPhone 17) as their main sale highlight while Amazon bets on the predecessor model (in this case the iPhone 16). In the past, we have seen Flipkart bring multiple price drops on the iPhone 17, be it during the GOAT Sale, the Freedom Sale, etc. Apple iPhone 16 on the other hand hasn’t seen as many price drops on Flipkart in recent times (not that Amazon has done it either). But the chance for iPhone 17 to be the biggest iPhone deal in BBD 2026 is higher compared to iPhone 16. Flipkart might still bet on the Pro models of the iPhone 16.

The exact final deal on iPhone 16 in Big Billion Days also depends heavily on whether Flipkart is clearing out their old inventory pricing units or newly adjusted MRP stock (after the recent price hike).
