New Delhi: The Flipkart Big Billion Day 2025 sale is offering big discounts on premium smartphones, especially the Apple iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro models. Many buyers were excited and ready to click ‘Buy Now,’ but things didn’t go as planned in the mega event.
The mega sale started on September 22 for Flipkart Black and the Plus members and is now open to everyone. Thousands of iPhone fans rushed to grab the deals, but soon, many buyers found their orders canceled—even after making payment. This has caused concern and anger, with people questioning Flipkart’s fairness.
A majority of them are also saying that the price cut advertised before was nothing but a mere tool to drive engagement on the platform.
