In the closing days of 2024, Amazon has brought the iPhone 14 256GB to its lowest recorded price in India, offering a Rs 15,000 reduction as e-commerce platforms clear their shelves before the calendar turns. The moment reflects a familiar rhythm in consumer technology — the brief window when premium capability becomes accessible, and the gap between aspiration and ownership narrows. For those who have been patient, the year ends with an uncommon opportunity.
