Apple has finally opened its 4-inch iPhone SE and 9.7-inch iPad Pro account in India this month. The devices are now available in the country through its retail partners, both online and offline.
Already available in countries like the U.S., the UK, Australia, China, and Japan, these devices were launched by their maker at a later date in India that forms a part of the second-wave launch countries.
The 4-inch iPhone SE is available in two variants: 32 GB and 64 GB, with the former priced at Rs39,000 (around $586) and the latter at Rs49,000 (or $736). Tagged as the "Most Powerful Phone with a Four-inch Display," the device boasts of an advanced 12 megapixel 'iSight' camera running on the same 64-bit A9 chip that powers iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus.
Available in Wi-Fi only and Wi-Fi+cellular models, the 9.7-inch iPad Pro has three variants: 32 GB, 128 GB, and 256 GB. The Wi-Fi-only 32 GB variant is available for Rs49,900 (or $750), with the 128 GB and 256 GB variants priced at Rs61,900 (about $930) and Rs73,900 (about $1,110) respectively.
The Wi-Fi+cellular 32 GB, 128 GB, and 256 GB devices, on the other hand, come at slightly elevated prices of Rs61,900, Rs73,900, and Rs85,900 that come to about $930, $1110, and $1290 respectively.
This extremely portable tablet comes with the all-new Apple Pencil and Smart Keyboard that makes finger movement on the tablet very easy and natural. The chief creative officer at Pixar and Walt Disney Animation Studios has gone on record to say that "iPad Pro and Apple Pencil are the closest we've ever been able to get in the digital world to actually drawing on paper."
The 'pro Retina' display, four-speaker camera, 12-megapixel 'iSight' camera, the A9X chip, 5-megapixel FaceTime HD camera, and the new True Tone feature that automatically fixes the brightness under varying lights — all make the new device the natural upgrade for the existing iPad and PC users.
The current Apple distributors in India are Beetek Teletech Limited and Redington India.
