Xiaomi’s sub-brand Redmi is turning up the heat in the flagship killer segment once again. Just months after the initial launch, the company has dropped the price of its high-performance Redmi K80 Pro series by a full 400 yuan (around $55), with the base model now starting at just 3299 yuan (approx $455). And if that wasn’t enough to tempt value hunters, Chinese buyers can shave even more off with government subsidies, pushing the price below the 2900 yuan ($400) mark in some cases.

Here’s the updated Redmi K80 Pro pricing:

12GB + 256GB
Original: 3699 yuan ($510)

After Subsidy: 3099 yuan ($426)

The camera system stays ambitious, featuring a 50MP Light Fusion 800 main sensor with OIS, a 32MP ultra-wide, and a 50MP 2.5x telephoto shooter with macro chops. On the battery front, there’s a 6000mAh silicon-carbon cell that supports 120W wired and 50W wireless charging, all wrapped in an IP68/IP69-rated body with glass and metal trim.

The K80 Pro ships with Xiaomi’s latest HyperOS 2.0 and offers stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos, Hi-Res audio, USB-C, and support for 19 5G bands via a new T1S signal chip.

In a nod to collectors, Xiaomi also offers a limited-edition Champion Edition of the K80 Pro with custom design elements and a themed box set in the top-tier 16GB + 1TB configuration.

Sony is gearing up for a major promotional deal that will make the PlayStation 5 an attractive buy for Indian gamers. The company will soon be rolling out a price cut for its latest generation of gaming consoles.

Sony PS5 now starts from Rs 44,990

Thanks to this amazing deal, you can expect to find the Sony PS5 Disc Edition will be listed for just 47,490 INR. It is worth noting that this deal is only available for a limited time period. The sales kick off on August 24 and will run for the next 10 days. The promotion deal ends on September 2. The Japanese tech giant’s new price cut will be available across multiple channels.

This includes e-commerce platforms like Amazon and Flipkart, alongside retail stores like Tata Croma, Vijay Sales, Reliance Digital, and ShopatSC. Notably, this promotional offer arrives not too far from the PS5 discounts that went live last month. The brand often brings discounts for its PlayStation console, so this new deal isn’t too surprising.

Reportedly, the company has realized the impacts of these discounts on sales and is likely rolling out such deals to meet sales targets. Keep in mind that the PlayStation 5 is available in two versions, which include a Disc Edition and a Digital Edition. The former lacks a disc drive and is more affordable. With the new discount, this variant will be sold for just 44,990 INR in India. So get ready for the sale, since it starts later this week.

In light of the ongoing global recession, the iPhone 14 models are seeing price drops in China, with reductions of up to 848 yuan (~$125) being offered to stabilize sales. This comes after Apple reported a decline in revenue during the December quarter due to the impact of COVID-19 on the supply chain and weak demand in the world’s largest smartphone market in 2022.

Online retailers in China, such as JD.com, have marked down the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max models by 800 yuan (~$118). With an additional 50 yuan (~$7.50) discount for members, these models are now available for 10.6% off the original price. This brings down the price of the 128GB iPhone 14 Pro by 848 yuan, down to 7150 yuan (~$1055). 

Physical resellers have also jumped on the bandwagon, offering price cuts ranging from 630 yuan (~$93) to 725 yuan (~$107). Some of the most sought-after models have already sold out. For example, all iPhone 14 Pro models with 256GB or more storage were sold out at Suning outlets in Shenzhen shortly after the price cut was offered over the weekend.

Shenzhen retail chain Sundan also offered a 630 yuan (~$93) price reduction starting Sunday, but has now run out of stock for both the Pro and Pro Max models with max storage. The iPhone 14 Pro series runs on iOS 16 operating system and is powered by Apple A15 Bionic Hexa-core processor. It is packed with 6 GB RAM and 128 GB, 256 GB, 512 GB and 1TB internal storage options.

However, the prices on Apple’s official website and brick-and-mortar stores in China have not changed as of Monday noon. This suggests that there is still a good level of inventory available, with online delivery or pickup options available.

POCO became a separate brand under the Xiaomi Group in early January 2020. The first phone from the brand after going independent was POCO X2. Since then, it has launched a handful of devices. Two of them, POCO M2 and POCO C3, have now received their first permanent price cut in India.

On the other hand, the brand’s cheapest smartphone, POCO C3, has also received a price cut. But unlike the former phone, only the higher variant of this handset has got a ₹500 price drop. Therefore, interested customers can buy the POCO C3 for either ₹7,499 (3GB + 32GB) or ₹8,499 (4GB + 64GB).

Ahead of the Diwali festive season in India, Samsung has slashed the prices of a number of its smartphones. Earlier today, we reported the company to have dropped the price of Galaxy Note10, the predecessor to this year’s Galaxy Not20. In addition to this premium handset, the company has also brought down the prices of Galaxy A21s, Galaxy A31, and Galaxy M11

Samsung launched the Galaxy A21s in India back in June priced at ₹16,499 and ₹18,499  for the 4GB + 64GB and 6GB + 128GB storage configurations respectively. Now, five months later, this device has received a price cut of up to ₹2,000. 

The base 4GB + 64GB variant of the Galaxy A21s now costs ₹14,999 (₹1,500 price cut), whereas the higher 6GB + 128GB retails for ₹16,499 (₹2,000 price cut).

On the other hand, the Galaxy A31, which launched a few days ahead of the Galaxy A21s is now selling for ₹20,999. For the unaware, it debuted for ₹21,999 and therefore, this makes it a price drop of ₹1,000. 

Weirdly, the device received a similar price cut in July. Seems like its price was hiked after a certain period of time.

Lastly, the price of the Galaxy M11 has been dropped by ₹500. That means the base 3GB + 32GB variant now costs ₹9,999, whereas the higher 4GB + 64GB model can be purchased for ₹11,499.

This smartphone was also launched in June and just recently received its first price cut in late September.

Almost all the Samsung smartphones in India are sold at a lower price on Amazon and Flipkart compared to offline stores as well as Samsung’s own online store. That was the case with Galaxy M31s, Galaxy M11, and Galaxy M01. But not anymore as the prices of these handsets now match on every platform.

Similarly, the South Korean tech giant has also slashed the price of Galaxy M01s by the same amount and therefore, it now retails for ₹9,499 instead of ₹9,999. It comes in a single 3GB + 32GB version.

Despite global pandemic, smartphone OEMs have been launching new devices every other month or even week in case of certain brands in India. Some of these products such as Galaxy A51 and Galaxy A71 from earlier this year have now begun to receive price cuts as well. Similarly, vivo has slashed the  price of vivo S1 Pro and vivo Y50 by ₹1,000 ($13).

Chinese smartphone maker vivo launched vivo S1 Pro in India in early January for ₹19,990 ($271). The phone comes in a single 8GB + 128GB variant. Just after two months from its launch in March, it received a price cut of ₹1,000 ($13) bringing down its selling price to ₹18,990 ($258).

But then, in the very next month in August, its price was bumped up by ₹2,000 ($27) due to an increase in GST (Goods & Services Tax). Hence, it was retailing for ₹20,990 ($285) up until in July when it received another price cut of ₹1,000 ($13) lowering its selling price to its ₹19,990 ($271) launch price.

Now, after eight months from its launch, the handset’s price has been slashed by ₹1,000 ($13) once again. Hence, it can be now bought for ₹18,990 ($258) in India from Amazon India, Flipkart, vivo online store, and offline stores.

On the other hand, vivo Y50 launched in the month of June in a single 8GB + 128GB storage configuration for ₹17,990 ($244). Just like the vivo S1 Pro , it has also received a ₹1,000 ($13) price and therefore, it is now available for ₹16,990 ($231) on Amazon India, Flipkart, vivo online store, and from offline retailers.

The Galaxy A51 is one of the best-selling smartphones worldwide ever since it released. Though it pales in comparison with devices from other brands in its price segment in countries like India, it still manages to keep up with the competition with the help of brand identity.

However, these two Galaxy A series phones are eligible to get three generations of Android updates and they even run proper One UI with support for Samsung Pay,  features from Galaxy S20 series, and a new feature called AltZLife.

It supports Apple Pencil and provides Touch ID fingerprint recognition software for protection alongside an 8 megapixel camera for photography.

The price for the entry level iPad after adjustment is 2,499 Yuan or roughly 358 US Dollars for the 32GB storage variant.
