From Xiaomi Redmi 6A and Vivo V11 Pro to Realme 2 Pro: Here is the list of smartphones that we expect in India in September 2018.
If you are someone who keeps a tab on smartphones that release every month, you must be aware by now that September is all about new iPhones, and this year is unlikely to be different. In fact, Apple’s upcoming event has been scheduled to take place on September 12 this year at Steve Jobs Theatre in Cupertino, just like last year. Rumour has it that Apple is expected to launch three models this year. Officially, there is no word on any of this, or India availability of the new phones.
Below is the list of smartphones that we know will come to India this month:
