 "Apple iPhone XR reportedly selling at a discount offline, pricing starts at Rs 70,500")
Many reports online suggest that the **Apple iPhone XR** has received a price cut. That’s untrue. We confirmed with **Apple** when we were told that the smartphone is indeed available at a discount, but there is no official price cut per se. At the time of writing the story, on the Apple website, Amazon India, and on Flipkart, the iPhone XR was listed at a starting price of Rs 76,900 for the 64 GB variant, which is the usual price.
