New Delhi – Ahead of its massive Big Billion Days 2026 event, Flipkart has started dropping hints about the price slashes it plans for flagship smartphones. Early teasers suggest that Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy S25 and its fan‑edition S25 FE will see deep cuts, and even Apple’s iPhone 17 might appear at a surprisingly modest price point.
When does the sale kick off?
Flipkart has confirmed that the Big Billion Days extravaganza will launch on 9 October 2026. In promotional graphics, the retailer hinted that the Galaxy S25 could be sold for less than ₹60,000 during the event.
Potential savings on the Galaxy S25
The 128 GB variant of the Galaxy S25 is currently listed at ₹69,999. If the festive‑season price drops below the ₹60,000 threshold, shoppers could pocket a discount of roughly ₹10,000. The exact figure will depend on the final deal, including any additional bank offers or exchange bonuses.
Galaxy S25 FE also in the discount spotlight
Flipkart’s teaser for the Galaxy S25 FE suggests a price tag under ₹50,000. The phone’s 128 GB model is now priced at ₹54,999, meaning a possible saving of at least ₹5,000, with further reductions possible through partner promotions.
iPhone 17 may see a major price cut
In a separate smartphone‑focused post, Flipkart hinted at a “₹7X,XXX” price range for the upcoming iPhone 17. With the current launch price set at ₹99,900, this would represent a substantial markdown if the hinted figure materialises.
Flipkart has not disclosed the final numbers for any of these devices yet. Consumers will have to wait for the official announcement, which will also reveal bank‑specific discounts, exchange‑offer values, and any other limited‑time incentives.
More flagship‑phone bargains are expected to surface in the coming days from Flipkart, Samsung and Amazon as the festive shopping season ramps up.
