New Delhi: Google’s upcoming flagship smartphone, the Pixel 10, is expected to carry a price tag in India similar to Apple’s forthcoming iPhone 16. Both devices are positioned in the premium category and are likely to compete directly when they launch later this year.
According to industry estimates, the Pixel 10 may debut in the ₹85,000–₹95,000 range, while the iPhone 16 is anticipated to launch around ₹80,000–₹90,000.
Ahead of the Pixel 10’s release, Google has slashed the prices of the Pixel 9, which is now available for approximately ₹55,000–₹60,000, depending on ongoing retail offers and bank discounts.
The new pricing strategy sets the stage for an intense battle in India’s premium smartphone market, where both brands are targeting consumers seeking advanced AI features, camera innovation, and long-term software support.

Pixel 10 Set to Rival iPhone 16 in India — Pixel 9 Gets Cheaper
If you’re planning to buy a flagship phone this year, here’s some good news (and a tough choice): the Google Pixel 10 is expected to launch in India at a price very close to Apple’s iPhone 16.
Leaked pricing suggests the Pixel 10 could cost around ₹85,000–₹95,000, while the iPhone 16 should come in at ₹80,000–₹90,000. That means Google is placing its next-gen flagship directly against Apple’s.
The flip side? If you don’t need the very latest model, the Pixel 9 just got a massive price cut. You can now find it for ₹55,000–₹60,000, depending on where you buy. For many users, that’s a sweet deal considering it still packs Google’s AI features and a flagship camera system.
So, should you wait for the Pixel 10/iPhone 16 or grab the Pixel 9 now at a lower price? That’s the big decision for Indian smartphone buyers this season.
