iPhone 15 to get big price cut during Amazon Prime Day but is it worth buying with iPhone 17 around the corner?

iPhone 15

If you’ve been eyeing the iPhone 15 but holding off because of the price, Amazon Prime Day 2025 might be the perfect time to finally make your move. From July 12 to 14, Amazon is dropping some major deals — and the iPhone 15 is front and centre.

The 128GB iPhone 15, which normally costs Rs 79,900, will be available for just Rs 57,249 during the sale — if you take advantage of the right bank offers. That’s the lowest price we’ve seen for the phone so far. For comparison, Apple is still selling it for Rs 69,900 on its official site.

To get the best deal, you’ll need to use select bank cards or choose EMI options. ICICI Bank credit card holders can get an extra 5% off through Amazon Pay, and no-cost EMIs start at around Rs 10,000 per month. You can also trade in your old phone and get up to Rs 52,000 off, depending on the model and condition. On top of that, ICICI and SBI card users can get another 10% discount, regardless of whether they pay in full or via EMI.

But here’s the catch — should you buy the iPhone 15 now, with the iPhone 17 expected to launch just next month?

That’s a valid concern. Apple typically launches its new iPhones in September, and the iPhone 17 is expected to bring design upgrades and better battery life. So if you're someone who always wants the latest, waiting might make more sense. But if you're happy with a premium phone that still performs exceptionally well, the iPhone 15 is still a solid bet.

It features a bright 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR OLED display, Apple’s fast A16 Bionic chip, and an excellent camera setup: a 48MP main sensor, 12MP ultra-wide, and a 12MP front camera. Plus, it's water and dust resistant (IP68 rated).

Other smartphones like the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, iQOO Neo 10R, and OnePlus 13s are also getting big discounts during Prime Day, with up to 40% off on phones and accessories.
