Apple iPhone 18 series goes on sale in India

Long queues and enthusiastic customers marked the first sale of Apple’s iPhone 18 series in India on Friday with buyers turning up early at Apple stores in the national capital, Maharashtra and Karnataka to get their hands on the latest series.

Sales of the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max began at 8 am with a large number of customers arriving at Apple stores, including the outlets at Mumbai’s BKC and Delhi’s Select Citywalk.

Speaking to Media, excited buyers said they had pre-booked the devices and arrived at the stores according to their allotted slots.

“I have already booked online. We have a 9 am slot and have booked two phones,” a customer



waiting outside an Apple store told Media.

At a Delhi store, one customer said he was buying the iPhone 18 Pro and had been using Apple’s smartphones for years. “I am very excited and am buying the iPhone 18 Pro. I buy a new iPhone every year. I have been using iPhones since 2009, starting with the iPhone 4, and have used all the variants so far,” he said.

Another Delhi customer said he was buying the iPhone 18 Pro Max 512 GB for his daughter, who was unaware of the purchase. “I have been using iPhones since 2008, starting with the iPhone 3G. This will be her first iPhone, and she is very excited. She does not know that I am buying it for her, so I think she will be surprised,” he said.
