iPhone 13 Under ₹40,000:Many are excited to purchase new iPhone models during the upcoming Amazon Great Indian Festival and Flipkart’s Big Billion Days sale. But what if we told you that it may not make sense to buy iPhones like the iPhone 13 during the sale? Yes, Amazon has revealed the price for the iPhone 13, and it will be around the ₹40,000 price bracket. This price could tempt buyers, especially those purchasing an iPhone for the first time or upgrading from an older model such as the iPhone SE, iPhone XR, or iPhone 11. However, it is in your best interest to avoid buying this model, especially at around ₹40,000. Why? Read on.
1. iPhone 13 Came Out in 2021 and Isn’t the Most Feature-Rich Phone Under ₹40,000
We might have had a different opinion in 2022, or even at the beginning of 2023, but now that 2024 is nearing its end, we have several Android alternatives that offer far better value for money compared to the iPhone 13. Not only does the iPhone 13 lack key features, but it also doesn’t have the bells and whistles you can get from an Android phone at this price point. This includes AI features, fast charging, and, of course, a notch-free experience.

2. iPhone 13 Still Uses the Lightning Connector
Now that Apple has fully transitioned to USB-C with its iPhones and accessories, the Lightning connector is on its way out. You will gradually see fewer and fewer accessories being made for it. Moreover, what you miss out on by sticking with Lightning is another significant drawback—this includes faster wired transfer speeds, universal compatibility, and a wider range of accessories.
3. iPhone 13 Has an Ageing 12MP Dual Camera Setup
iPhone 13 did not have the best camera even when it was released. Yes, it was excellent for video, thanks to the inclusion of Cinematic mode, but overall, the dual-camera setup wasn’t the best. You get two 12MP cameras—wide and ultra-wide—but the ultra-wide is notorious for producing low-detail images and showing noise in low-light scenarios. So, if you’re looking for the best-looking photos under ₹40,000, the iPhone 13 isn’t the phone you should go for. Instead, consider alternatives like the Samsung Galaxy S23, which may also be available around the ₹40,000 price bracket during the upcoming sales.
