Apple’s recently announced iPhone SE 2020 will be available for purchase in India very soon. The iPhone is already listed on Flipkart with a “coming soon” banner indicating that consumers will be able to purchase the device very soon. The registration for the iPhone SE 2020 has already begun in the country via Flipkart as we reported previously. Ahead of the official release Apple has announced a partnership with HDFC Bank to offer a massive discount to consumers interested to buy the iPhone SE 2020.
Apple has partnered with HDFC Bank to offer Rs 3,600 cashback to consumers purchasing the iPhone SE. The offer will bring down the price of the iPhone to Rs 38,900. Both HDFC Bank Debit and Credit Cards users will be able to avail this discount offer. Apple hasn’t confirmed whether the HDFC bank offer is limited to some weeks or will be available at all times. Apple is yet to announce the release date of the iPhone SE 2020 in India. But given OnePlus 8 series will be made available this month we can expect Apple to release the new iPhone SE.
