Apple iPhone 5 launch in India has been delayed by a week to November 2, but several Apple partners in India have confirmed that the starting price for the much-awaited phone will be Rs 45,500.
The prices have been shared by Redington, one of two distribution partners of Apple in India. According to Redington, the basic 16GB version of the iPhone 5 will be priced at Rs 45, 500, the 32GB and 64GB will be priced Rs52500 and Rs 59500 respectively. On Friday, Ingram, the other Apple India retailer, confirmed that Apple is set to launch the iPhone 5 on November 2, 2012. Redington and Ingram Micro already distribute iPad and iPods in the country.
Both black and white versions of the phone are expected to go on sale. But still stocks are extremely limited considering the global demand for the device.

Key features of the iPhone are: a 4 inch screen with a higher screen resolution of 1136×640 pixel which comes to around 326 ppi. That’s Retina Display quality for you.
The iPhone5 has the dual-core A6 chip, an 8 megapixel rear camera with a sapphire crystal lens cover for ‘clearer pictures’ and a 1.2 megapixel front camera. The dock connector is now called Lightning, and is an eight-pin plug.
