Apple iPhone 5 up for Pre-Order in India


Bangalore: Apple’s latest smartphone iPhone 5 is now available for pre-order in India. The online retailer Infibeam has listed the iPhone 5 (16 GB version) in its website for per-order for advance booking amount of 5000. Apple iPhone 5 got launched last month, but there is no word when it will officially hit the Indian market.

Infibeam has not mentioned the exact price of the device, but states that the remaining amount will be collected after the launch of the device. Buyers will have the option to pay the remaining amount through cards or cash on delivery. The online retailer also mentioned that the booking amount will be refunded if buyers are unable to pay the full amount at the time of launch.

For those who don’t know; iPhone 5 is the thinnest and lightest iPhone ever and is completely redesigned to feature a stunning 4 inch Retina Display with A6 chip for blazing fast performance.

iPhone 5 is thinner with 7.6 mm, 18 percent thinner and 20 percent lighter than iPhone 4S. Designed with an unprecedented level of precision, iPhone 5 combines an anodized aluminum body with diamond cut chamfered edges and glass inlays for a truly incredible fit and finish.

The handset comes with iOS 6 which the company claims as the world’s most advanced mobile operating system with over 200 new features including Facebook integration; Passbook organization; and even more Siri features and languages.
