As we reported a few days ago, Airtel has now officially announced that it's going to bring the Apple's best iPhone ever, the Apple iPhone X to its online store on November 3. Airtel recently launched its online store (www.airtel.in/onlinestore/) with an aim to offer smartphones on a contract basis for postpaid customers. The sale of the Apple iPhone X will begin on Airtel Online Store at 6 PM on November 3.
Airtel said that it is one among the few portals to sell the iPhone X in the country, amidst the huge demand for the tenth anniversary iPhone. As said earlier, the iPhone X on Airtel's Online Store will be available exclusively to Airtel postpaid customers as an unlocked device on a first come first serve basis.

Airtel prepaid and non-Airtel customers can upgrade to Airtel postpaid to be eligible for the purchase and can choose a postpaid plan from Airtel's myPlan Infinity postpaid plans. Furthermore, there's a cashback offer from Citi bank as well. Customers with a Citibank Credit card will get a cashback of Rs. 10,000 within 90 days from the date of purchase. That said, the iPhone X purchase has to be made on Airtel Online Store between 6 PM November 3 and 7 AM November 4, 2017.
