The iPhone 17, Apple’s most refined non-Pro iPhone in years, has received a dramatic price drop during the Croma Black Friday sale. Originally priced at Rs 82,900, the phone is now effectively available for just Rs 45,900, but only until November 30. If you’ve been holding off on buying a new iPhone, now’s the perfect time to take the plunge.
Croma’s Black Friday sale offers discounts of up to 50 per cent on all electronics. The iPhones have seen a major price drop during this sale, much to the delight of Apple fans.
How to get the iPhone 17 at Rs 45,900
The iPhone 17 is originally priced at Rs 82,900. During the Croma Black Friday Sale, you get a bank cashback of Rs 1,000 and an exchange bonus of Rs 7,000. Moreover, the maximum value you can get on exchange is a whopping Rs 29,000, bringing down the price to just Rs 45,900 for a phone that launched merely two months ago.
That puts the iPhone 17 in the same bracket as mid-premium Androids, but with flagship-level performance, Apple’s refined design language, and a spec sheet finally ready for 2025.
iPhone 17 specs and features
For the first time, the vanilla iPhone gets a 120Hz ProMotion display. So, you get smooth scrolling, fluid animations, and a noticeably faster UI experience, especially if you’re upgrading from an iPhone 14 or earlier. It instantly feels more premium, and yes, you’ll feel the difference.
Under the hood, the A19 Bionic chip delivers the same kind of fluidity you expect from Pro-level models. From gaming to editing to multitasking, the performance overhead is reassuringly solid.
An 18MP selfie camera with Centre Stage support is now available even on the standard iPhone. The camera automatically widens the frame and keeps everyone in focus during group selfies, especially in landscape mode.
Apple also claims “all-day battery life”, but in everyday terms, you get around 11-12 hours of usage under mixed conditions, which is pretty impressive. More importantly, the iPhone 17 finally supports 40W fast charging!

As for optics, the iPhone 17 features dual 48MP sensors (main + ultrawide) with excellent colour accuracy and detail. Low-light photography is clean, and Apple’s Photonic Engine continues to deliver well-balanced skin tones and natural colours. The only thing missing is a dedicated telephoto lens. If 3x/5x optical zoom is a priority, you should lean towards the iPhone 17 Pro.
If you’ve been waiting to upgrade from the iPhone 13, 14, or even 15, this might be the best time to do it. At Rs 45,900 during the Croma Black Friday Sale, it becomes one of the most compelling deals of the season.

Thanks for information. It is misleading the people for buying the product more price difference.

This is highly misleading. I just visited a Croma showroom today. The exchange bonus plus the actual value is actually lesser than the trade in value of what apple.com is offering. It was a joke…
