iPhone India Pricing: Apple gets it wrong
iPhone in India is priced at 31,000 for 8GB model and 36,100 for 16GB model.
Apple high price point was seen as a major disappoint among the growing apple fan following and the apple-pro user base. The best of the business and multi-media enabled phones cost 20-25k. India has a very good market for 20k-25k range. Apple should have at least priced the lower end model to 29,000.
Vodafone and Airtel were not ready with a data plan, warranty information and many other answers you would want before you choose to spend 31k.
Talking to a local franchisee revealed that iPhone sales are no-where-close to Blackberry and other smart phones even after the arrival of iPhone.
I am expecting a price dip soon - very soon!
