Smartphones these days are anything but cheap if you want the best of everything, which is why occasional sales give a reason to buy those expensive phones you've been eyeing all along. Amazon, the largest e-commerce platform, is hosting a limited period sale on its website to give steep discounts on a wide range of products, including smartphones.
Amazon Prime Day Sale is a 48-hour sale that ends Tuesday, July 16. Premium smartphones from brands like OnePlus, Apple, Huawei and Samsung are on discount during this rush-hour sale and it might be the perfect time to upgrade your phone. As the name of the sale suggests, it is exclusively for Prime subscribers so if you haven't enrolled yet then it will cost Rs 129 a month or Rs 999 a year.
We've handpicked some of the best deals you should not miss during the Amazon sale.
