The post came as customers across cities lined up to get their hands on the newly launched iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max.
Among the first Bollywood celebrities to get his hands on the new phone was Vicky Kaushal. The actor was spotted at Apple BKC in Mumbai on Friday as sales of the new iPhone models began. In visuals captured by paparazzi, the ‘Raazi’ actor was seen checking out the phone and taking selfies before waving at the cameras with the new device in his hand.
For some customers, however, the annual iPhone launch has become more than just buying a new phone. Rahul, a customer from Bengaluru who has been buying iPhones since the iPhone 7, reached the store around 5 am.
Speaking about his experience, Rahul said, “I’ve been here since around five o’clock in the morning. There was a long queue. People from Haryana, Delhi, and Mumbai are here just to buy the iPhone. I’ve been purchasing iPhones for a very long time. I remember my first iPhone was an iPhone 7. Since then, I’ve been continuously buying iPhones… I’m expecting a phone. But it’s like a festival for me. iPhone launch is like a festival. Every year, I try to buy an iPhone,” he said.
