As Flipkart’s Big Billion Day and Amazon’s festive sales roll out, premium smartphone buyers are eyeing big discounts on flagship devices. While Apple’s newly launched iPhone 17 Pro has stolen headlines, its steep price tag has many consumers exploring more affordable high-end alternatives.
Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra
One of Apple’s strongest rivals, the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra, originally priced at ₹1,29,999 for the 12GB+256GB model, is now available at ₹1,23,499 on Flipkart and as low as ₹1,03,690 on Amazon. It remains a powerhouse with cutting-edge performance and camera capabilities.
Vivo X200 Pro
For photography enthusiasts, the Vivo X200 Pro offers premium camera technology and solid performance powered by the Dimensity 9400 chipset. It is retailing for ₹94,999 on both Flipkart and Amazon during the sale.
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6
Apple has no foldable device yet, which makes Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 6 a unique option. Originally priced at ₹1,64,999, the foldable phone is being offered at a huge discount — just ₹1,09,999 on Flipkart.
Realme GT 7 Pro
The Realme GT 7 Pro, built for performance seekers, runs on the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor and features a strong flagship camera setup. Its price has dropped from ₹69,999 to ₹44,990 during Flipkart’s sale.
OnePlus 13
The OnePlus 13 rounds out the list as a balanced flagship, excelling in performance, cameras, battery life, and AI-driven features. On Flipkart, it is listed at ₹63,999, down from its launch price.
The Big Picture
The festive sales present a golden opportunity for premium smartphone buyers. While the iPhone 17 Pro may be out of reach for many due to its premium pricing, alternatives from Samsung, Vivo, OnePlus, and Realme provide flagship-level features at significantly lower prices.
