Apple’s iPhone Air has received a sharp price cut on Vijay Sales, pushing the premium smartphone closer to the Rs. 95,000 mark with bank offers. The latest deal has sparked renewed interest among buyers seeking a lightweight flagship iPhone without paying Pro-series prices.
The iPhone Air launched at Rs. 1,19,900. Vijay Sales now lists it at around Rs. 98,790, while select bank discounts further reduce the effective price by more than Rs. 21,000.
The revised pricing changes where the iPhone Air stands in Apple’s portfolio. At launch, many users questioned the cost because Apple offered fewer camera features and a smaller battery compared to Pro models.
At its current price, the iPhone Air enters a more competitive space, competing with premium Android smartphones and even Apple’s standard iPhone lineup.
Its biggest highlight remains the design. Apple focused heavily on portability, making the iPhone Air among the slimmest and lightest premium smartphones available today. It also packs a high-refresh-rate OLED and Apple’s latest-generation chipset.
Trade-offs persist within the iPhone Air. People who are concerned about battery life or a good camera can consider the Pro model or the regular iPhone 17.
There will be some disappointment among people who need just one camera for zooming and wide-angle photos. The device's battery has been criticized in user forums for poor longevity during intensive use.
Yet, fans of the company who prefer to remain loyal to the manufacturer can benefit from owning the iPhone Air for its slim profile, efficient battery life, and ongoing software updates.

Those who love stylish, lightweight gadgets will definitely like the new iPhone Air.
If there is greater emphasis on battery efficiency, multiple cameras, and product value, among other factors, customers may get better value from purchasing the standard iPhone 17 or discounted Pro iPhones.
The new deal does make it even easier for me to suggest the phone.
