What to expect from Amazon Great Indian Festival?

Amazon will be launching some new products as soon as the sale kicks off for Prime members. It's wise to subscribe to Amazon Prime if you don't want to miss out on either of the new launches, which include Mi TV Pro, Vivo V9 Pro (which will be available at a discounted price of Rs 17,990).

Further, many smartphones will see a price cut including the Redmi Y2, Honor 7X, Honor Play, Realme 1, Huawei Nova 3i and Vivo Y83. But the biggest attraction this time is the OnePlus 6, which will be going on sale at a discounted price of Rs 29,999 for the first time ever. Similarly, the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is expected to see a huge price cut alongside the exchange discount.

Aside the offers, Amazon is also giving Rs 2400 cashback if customers pay using Amazon Pay Balance. Not just this, but users will also get a Rs 300 cashback upon topping up Amazon Pay Balance.

Bank offers include a 10 percent instant off on payments done via SBI debit and credit cards. Cities eligible for Prime Day delivery can also avail the 2-hour delivery service on select items via Prime Now app.

What's more?

Amazon has also revealed a few customer benefits when they shop during the Great Indian Festival sale. These benefits include- free mobile insurance, extended warranty, free installation and more such services.

Smartphone buyers will get a free screen replacement with an option to opt for total damage protection starting at Re 1. During the sale, customers will also get free one year extended warranty on home appliances like refrigerator, washing machine and TVs.

Should you subscribe to Amazon Prime?

It's undeniable that Prime membership does have its benefits, but it might not be for everyone. If you are an active online shopper and want to avail benefits like one-day delivery with no minimum shopping value, access to Netflix-like video streaming service—Prime Video, music service Prime Music and of course exclusivity to deals, then it's a must have for you.

But it's quite useful if you shop online very often, but not if you have a preferred online video/music streaming service already. If it's just for the Great Indian Festival, you can subscribe to a Rs 129 monthly package if not willing to pay for whole year.
