On September 12th, Apple launched the most expected iPhone 5 with much fanfare and promises to be the best smartphone available in the market.
The features of the new iPhone match images and information leaked in recent months, including an elongated 4-inch screen with a 16:9 aspect ratio, iOS 6, A6 processor and much more.

Apple has its own league of fans of Apple products, who want to grab the latest model whatever the price. Typically Apple products ship to India several months later after supply and demand pressures reduce in the US and other major markets across the world.
Owning the latest iPhone is a status symbol as few can afford the expensive price of the iPhone in India. So how can you buy the latest Apple iPhone 5 in India?
Where to Purchase iPhone 5 in India
If you check the iPhone Price in the Apple Store, the 16 GB iPhone 5 is available for sale for $199 (Around Rs. 10,000), but the discounted rate is with the network carrier plan. Unlocked phones available in different markets do cost much more without telecom carrier plan.
But if you start checking out various online shopping websites in India, you find that Apple iPhone five is indeed available for sale to Indian customers, though at a very premium price starting at around Rs. 55,000 for the base version.
