Apple’s latest flagship smartphones, the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max are now available through Blinkit and Zepto – two quick-commerce players – in select Indian cities.

iPhone 18 Pro Series launch date – India

Apple’s iPhone 18 Pro series officially hits markets in India on September 18, 2026. With quick-commerce platforms joining the party, eligible customers can download Blinkit or Zepto app and get their hands on the latest iPhones in the shortest possible time after placing an order.

iPhone 18 Pro on Blinkit

Quick commerce company Blinkit has come on board with Apple to sell the iPhone 18 Pro and the iPhone 18 Pro Max across various Indian cities.

The iPhone 18 Pro (in all four colours) is available for purchase on Blinkit whereas customers may also look to buy the new Apple Watch Series 12 and AirPods 5 from the app.

Currently Blinkit’s coverage spans across Delhi NCR, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chennai, Pune, Kolkata, Ahmedabad, Jaipur and Lucknow – though availability and delivery time will depend on the customer’s location and proximity to stocks.

iPhone 18 Pro on Zepto

Zepto has also joined the bandwagon and the quick commerce company has rolled out the latest Apple Pro smartphones on its app.

iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max and the AirPods 5 are available for purchase in Delhi NCR, Mumbai, Bengaluru and Chennai since September 18. Customers can select from a range of storage options (256GB, 512GB, 1TB and 2TB) in availability.

Zepto is also offering up to ₹7,000 discount on select credit cards (Axis Bank, ICICI Bank and SBI cards) during the festive sale.

iPhone 18 Pro Price (India)

iPhone 18 Pro price in India starts at ₹1,64,900 for the 256 GB variant. The 512 GB costs ₹1,89,900 whereas the 1 TB and 2 TB are priced at ₹2,39,900 and ₹3,14,900, respectively.

iPhone 18 Pro Max price on the other hand starts at ₹1,79,900 with the 256 GB option. The 512 GB costs ₹2,04,900 while the 1 TB and 2 TB are priced at ₹2,54,900 and ₹3,29,900, respectively.

Quick commerce offers and iPhone 18 Pro availability

Both Blinkit and Zepto are offering selected bank financing and EMI benefits during the festive sale and new year. While Zepto has announced up to ₹7,000 off on select credit cards – Blinkit is also offering selected card discounts and zero-cost EMI options.

However, it is important for customers to check the availability in their city against the option of storage, variants and colours since popular configurations tend to sell out fast especially on big festive days and during the initial phase of any product’s launch.

A faster way to buy the new iPhone

iPhone 18 Pro series availability on Blinkit and Zepto signals a growing trend of quick commerce and its ability to influence how customers search, explore and purchase products.

Instead of going to an Apple Store or having to wait for days for a conventional e-commerce delivery, customers in select cities can simply log on to these quick commerce apps to browse through available stock and make a purchase via the app on the same day.
