Apple’s iPhone 17 was released with a starting price of ₹82,900. Now customers are faced with the tough decision: do they upgrade to the newest version or stick with their iPhone 16?
Both options have their benefits since the iPhone 16, now at a discounted price starting at approximately ₹69,900, will run nicely. In this article we will evaluate the differences to help with your choice.
The iPhone 16 , after a price drop now runs approximately Rs 69,900. Sorry for not remembering the exact figure. With the iPhone 17 starts at approximately Rs 82,900 (256GB). The Pro iPhone models are more expensive, expect to pay more especially when you consider upgrades.
Alternatively, you can save approximately Rs 13,000-15,000 with the iPhone 16 and you’ll also have decent battery life, so from about the same experience for less money. It is an excellent choice if value is what you are after.
The iPhone 16 has the basic OLED display that still runs solid and performs reasonably fast, although it does not have ProMotion technology. Whereas the iPhone 17 has the 6.3 inch ProMotion OLED display that has a max 120Hz refresh rate and a brightness level of 3,000 nits.
The iPhone 17 has Always-On display. If you want a smoother experience on the screen and dont mind a little more for outdoors space and exceeding your expectations, I suggest going with iPhone 17.
The iPhone 16 comes with an A18 chip that runs solid and is good enough for typical user’s demands. The iPhone 17 seems to have all the benefits of an A19 chip having about a 20% increase in both CPU and GPU.
Also, note the N1 is designed for Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6 with iPhone 17 which means it has real longevity for apps based on modern Ai protection and other common usage.
Again, looking at the iPhone 17 claims highlight that you may be getting 8 hours more video playback and if your a person in hurry, it only takes about 50% to charge with 20 minutes – some encourage waiting 20 minutes!
The iPhone 16 has decent battery life. It is a little behind in battery life on real world usage. For more battery life, the iPhone 17 is a better choice.
The iPhone 17 has a completely new 48MP Dual Fusion camera system with wide and ultra wide lenses. The front camera is also improved at 18MP with Centre Stage. It also has Dual Capture.
The iPhone 16 did have good cameras, but without these improvements. If you want the best camera for low-light pictures, choose the iPhone 17.
The iPhone 16 at Rs 69,900 is fantastic value for money. It is for people who want a decent smartphone with many of the features of a high-end smartphone.
The iPhone 17 is priced at Rs 82,900, and has all the latest technology, including ProMotion, better speed, battery life and cameras. If you want a smartphone that has up-to-date features, spend a little more for the iPhone 17. If you are budget conscious but want a good phone, get the iPhone 16.
