As soon as the iPhone 17 launched, the frenzy was real. Lines outside stores, online queues, and even people trying their luck on apps like Blinkit — yes, you read that right — to secure the latest device. The hype wasn’t just about tech; it was about being part of a culture, flaunting the newest gadget, and not missing out. But for most salaried professionals, buying the iPhone 17 outright or via traditional EMIs during a festival like Diwali is easier said than done.

So how do you get your hands on the latest phone without breaking your wallet or adding stress to your festive season? SalarySe, in collaboration with BytePe, has introduced a subscription-based model for premium smartphones like the iPhone 17. Let’s answer all the questions you might have.

‍‍

Why to choose a subscription instead of an outright purchase?

The appeal is simple: flexibility, affordability, and freedom. Instead of paying ₹82,900 upfront or stretching EMIs over a year, you can enjoy the iPhone 17 for just ₹3,700/month.

But it’s not just about lower monthly costs. With the subscription:

1. Freedom to choose: You can upgrade to a new device, renew your existing plan, or cancel anytime - no hidden conditions or restrictions.
2. Always upgraded: Access the next iPhone model every year without resale hassles.
3. Peace of mind: You’re covered for accidental damages up to ₹10,000 every year, so there’s no need to buy costly AppleCare separately.

Think of it as renting happiness with perks, where you enjoy premium tech without long-term financial stress.

How does the subscription work?

It’s remarkably simple, designed for busy professionals who want to shop smart during Diwali:

1. Choose your device: select iPhone 17 through BytePe via the SalarySe app.
2. Pay a fixed monthly subscription: ₹3,700/month for the iPhone 17, allowing you to plan your finances.
3. Use worry-free: full damage protection, and instant access to your device.
4. Decide your next step at the end of the plan: upgrade to the latest iPhone, continue your subscription, or cancel entirely.
5. Option to own the device: after completing a year of subscription, you can choose to keep the phone permanently by paying the remaining installments. Once done, the device becomes yours.

No resale stress, no surprise repair bills, and no awkward bank approvals — just smooth, worry-free tech access.

How is this different from a regular EMI or outright purchase?

In short: this model frees you from financial stress, keeps your phone up-to-date every year, and includes protection without extra hassle.

In conclusion…

Diwali is about celebration without stress, family happiness, and joy. Premium devices like the iPhone 17 are tempting, but they shouldn’t create financial strain. With SalarySe + BytePe subscription, you can:

1. Shop when prices are best: Don’t wait for your next salary or miss limited-time Diwali offers.
2. Stay worry-free: Full damage protection means accidents don’t ruin your festive mood.
3. Earn rewards: Pair this with SalarySe UPI or a co-branded RuPay credit card for cashback, Scoins, and discounted vouchers on every purchase.
