iPhone X Launches in India With Long Queues Outside Major Stores



iPhone X Launches in India With Long Queues Outside Major Stores

HIGHLIGHTS

  • iPhone X was greeted by long queues outside Apple authorised stores
  • The phone represents the biggest redesign yet in iPhone's 10-year history
  • The iPhone X is priced in India starting at Rs. 89,000
iPhone X has gone on sale in India with huge queues visible outside authorised Apple resellers in Delhi-NCR as well as Mumbai. Gadgets 360 witnessed the queues first hand at an Apple reseller in Mumbai's Lower Parel as well as Delhi's Vasant Kunj on Friday evening, with reports of most major retail stores across the country witnessing similar scenes.
iPhone X India retail availability began at 6pm IST, with dozens of people lining up outside stores hours before that time in order to be the first to get their hands on the smartphone.
"We were up since 6am to drive down here as we thought 12 [noon] was the delivery time - we didn't know it was at 6[pm]," said Ayush, who drove down to Delhi from Dehradun with his friend so the latter could get his hands on a 256GB iPhone X on day one. "It's now more than 12 hours, out of which 7 hours of travel and 5-6 hours of waiting. Finally I think it's worth the wait, as always. We are absolutely Apple lovers and we are more than happy to receive it."
Of course, as has been endlessly reported since (and even before) the smartphone's launch, the supply will likely not be able to match demand and Apple's 10th anniversary iPhone will leave many potential buyers - and almost certainly those without pre-bookings - disappointed.
A retailer in South Delhi told Gadgets 360 that only those who pre-booked the smartphone with them would be able to pick it up on launch day on Friday, and everyone else may as well "forget it" for the next 3-4 days, at least.

India is of course not the only country where people are queuing up to buy the iPhone X. The first wave of launch countries include Andorra, Australia, Austria, Bahrain, Belgium, Bulgaria, Canada, China, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Greenland, Guernsey, Hong Kong, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Isle of Man, Italy, Japan, Jersey, Kuwait, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Mexico, Monaco, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Puerto Rico, Qatar, Romania, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, UAE, the UK, the US, and US Virgin Islands.
We've already seen long queues in the first markets the iPhone X became available in, such as Australia, Hong Kong, Mainland China, and Singapore. Lines started to form outside Apple's New York City stores from Thursday itself.

iPhone X price in India

iPhone X India price starts at Rs. 89,000 for the 64GB version, while the 256GB version is priced at Rs. 1,02,000. The smartphone will be available in Silver and Space Grey colours.
