As the iPhone 16 makes its debut in the market, customers no longer have to wait in long lines at stores to get their hands on the latest Apple device. Instant delivery services like BigBasket and Blinkit have revolutionized the shopping experience by offering speedy deliveries of the iPhone 16 within minutes, allowing customers to enjoy the latest technology without leaving their homes. BigBasket, in partnership with Tata's Croma, has expanded its offerings to include electronics like mobile phones, laptops, and more, with deliveries of iPhones, starting with the iPhone 16, now available for swift delivery.
Hari Menon, CEO of BigBasket, expressed excitement about the company's venture into the electronics market, emphasizing their focus on lightning-fast deliveries to ensure customers can access the newest tech without delays. Not to be outdone, competing delivery service Blinkit, in collaboration with Unicorn Store, is also promising rapid deliveries of the iPhone 16 within 15 minutes, providing customers with multiple options for quick and convenient purchases. In addition to speedy deliveries, various instant delivery services are also wooing customers with attractive deals on the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus, such as cashback offers for those using specific credit cards.
While the speed of delivery is a significant draw, Apple continues to entice customers with its Trade-In program, allowing users to trade in their old smartphones to offset the cost of a new iPhone 16. The Trade-In program is not limited to just iPhones but extends to Android devices as well, offering estimated trade-in values for a range of models. Older iPhone models like the iPhone 14, iPhone 13, and even the iPhone 12 can still fetch decent trade-in values, making it easier for users to upgrade to the latest iPhone 16. Similarly, Apple's acceptance of Android devices for trade-in provides an opportunity for users of brands like Samsung, OnePlus, Google, and Xiaomi to switch to the new iPhone while receiving credit for their old devices.
