Apple Iphone Amit Already the $499 priced iPhone is dropped to a pricing of $229.85 which is almost 55% Drop from the regular pricing and the same change has been made in the 8Gb model of iphone where in the price has been dropped from $599 to $264.85. Lets see what pricing would be fixed when iphones would be sold in india and will they be unlocked version is another big question, though you can read this tutorial on how to unlock apple iphone and get started using the sexy gadget.

Mukesh Ambani’s Reliance Retail was the first company to negotiate with apple regarding the sale of iphones in india but now seems the deal is offered to Noida-based HCL Infosystems and Bangalore-based Wipro Technologies according to sources which are also not yet confirmed, but if the deal is confirmed then we can expect Apple to enter the indian telecom market and give the leading cellular company “Nokia” a very big shock in terms of sales and promotions. My next phone after losing my Nokia N95 would be a Apple iphone but i think i need to wait for a couple fortnights before its officially launched in india and its better to wait for that rather than getting it from Gery mobile phone market which has no guarantee.

The best part of Apple is that their stores are excellently designed and have a unique ambience which is the only reason apple is still waiting for some company which can offer these kind of store during collabrations. Currently the apple iphones are available in india in grey market at the cost of 18000Rs to 20000Rs ie 450-500USD. Also dont forget to select the best answer from the above poll to reflect your opinion regarding the Apple iphone.

  1. woow.. i am waiting for the iphone to be released and also i heard that gphone is also released… Anyway i a, upset as i dont have enough money…

  4. Obviously when the Iphone hits the shop’s its gonna be sold out!

    Damn! How i wish that happens pretty soon..

    Waiting sucks..

  5. I think iphone is currently expensive… Just for a phone to spend so much i think it is not worth… may be till it releases in INDIA they might drop the price once…. to booost huge sales & market in INDIA… btw… i already saw iphone & also used it… for using it is like another PDA phone just like O2 or can say any other chinese PDA’s

  7. @ Abhishek Daaga – Where did you see the iphone you are referring to? Did you buy it from Grey market?

  9. well i voted it as my next phone… i currently the N series from Nokia… and i am sure this Apple wonder would be great…
    the reason i want to get my hands on the apple phone is that i simply love mac.. the Power Mac G5 which i use is the greatest i have seen;)

  45. The Latest Iphone which has firmware v1.1.2 cannot be software unlocked.
    I mean the iphone which has been bought recently in no way it can be unlocked because apple has already patched all the bugs.
    Hackers are waiting for the release of v1.1.3 so as to get the bootloader seczone and possibly will be able to software unlock iphone, but now it can be unlocked using stealthsim, turbosim perfectly.
    Turbosim and stealthsim are hardware unlock, but to do that one has to first jailbreak the iphone.
    Jailbreak is a a tricky process and many have not been successful with that.

    People with 1.1.2 iphone a re waiting for software unlock release, so till that time pls dont fall prey to anyone who says he can unlock latest iphone.

    I have 2 pcs of jailbreaked iphone which I want to sell off.
    I can ship it in any part of india using dhl.
