iPhone 12 mini for 20K (with a catch): Cheapest iPhone in Big Billion Days

The Flipkart Big Billion Days Sale 2024 is live and iPhones are undoubtedly a top highlight of this sale, isn’t it? With the new iPhone 16 launch, iPhone 15 prices sure have fallen a bit but the iPhone 15 still stands at a 50K price and not everyone can afford it. So if you want to buy the cheapest iPhone in the Big Billion Days Sale, Flipkart has a deal for you (but there’s a catch).

Presently, Flipkart is selling iPhone 12 mini under 20K price but the deal is sadly out of stock now. But the sale has just begun so it's best to not lose all the hope now. On the other hand, the next cheapest iPhone in Flipkart BBD Sale 2024 is iPhone 12 and it is still in stock at the time of writing this article. Catch more details below

After the much-awaited iPhone 15 price reveal in Flipkart BBD Sale 2024, an early access night full of some exciting deals (& some not-so-exciting ones), the BBD Sale is set to start for all users tonight 12:00 AM.

During the sale period, customers have a chance to grab one of the cheapest iPhone deals in BBD Sale. Launched in the year 2020, iPhone 12 mini is priced ₹18,999 presently on Flipkart but as mentioned before the deal is out of stock for now.

Moreover, be sure to set a deal alert by the name of “iPhone 12” so that you can be quickly alerted if the deal returns to stock again (you will need to sign up on DesiDime first (its free))

Before you lose all your hopes to get an iPhone at the cheapest price, there’s good news.

While we don’t know when the iPhone 12 mini will come in stock in the Big Billion Days Sale, the iPhone 12 (64GB) is already in stock at a price of 30,999 rupees.

The iPhone 12 is the next cheapest iPhone in the Flipkart Big Billion Days (that is still in stock:))

Customers can grab the iPhone 12 64GB variant for as low as ₹29,499 against its original MRP of ₹49,999. The selling price is ₹30,999 and using a Flipkart Axis Credit Card, you get an additional ₹1550 which brings the final price to ₹29,499. If you have a phone to exchange, you can grab additional discount. Also if you do not have Flipkart Axis Credit Card, you can use HDFC Credit Card and get a slightly lesser discount of ₹1000.

Just to refresh your memory, the iPhone 12 comes with an A14 Bionic chip (iPhone 13 comes with an A15 chipset), and the rear camera and display are almost the same as the iPhone 13 except you get an extra Cinematic mode in the iPhone 13. The front camera is also almost the same. But there’s one big difference between the iPhone 12 vs iPhone 13, the latter comes with higher storage of 128GB while the iPhone 12 comes with 64GB storage.

iPhone 13 price in Great Indian Sale is ₹37,500 and at that price, it sure is not the best iPhone deal (last year’s price was 40k) so the discount is not the most groundbreaking one this year.

How many years of updates are left for the iPhone 12?

Moreover do keep in mind that Apple generally provides 5 to 7 years of OS updates for its iPhones. So the iPhone will likely get an iOS 18 update and will continue to get updates till the year 2025 or 2027. However keep in mind despite the update, the iPhone 12 might not be compatible with all new advance Apple Intelligence AI features the company would launch.

So this was all about sharing the cheapest iPhone offer in the Flipkart Big Billion Days & Amazon Great Indian Sale Festival 2024.

Please know that the iPhone 12 deal is not for everyone. But for those who need an iPhone for content creation, shooting videos, and clicking pictures & don’t have a budget beyond 20K to 30K to spend, in that case the iPhone 12 deal can make sense and this article is for those only.

If you have the money to spend, of course, it's better to grab the iPhone 15.
