Mumbai: man buys 5 iPhone 16 for wife and children, goes viral

The craze for the iPhone is increasing day by day. Every year when Apple launches its new iPhone, there is competition among people to buy it. The latest example of this craze came to light recently from Mumbai, when a man bought 5 iPhone 16 Pro Max simultaneously for his wife and kids.

The sale of the iPhone 16 series started in India on 20 September, but the fans of this phone had lined up outside the store for the phone a day before. A long queue was seen on Friday at the BKC Apple Store in Bandra, Mumbai. Thousands of people were standing in line even before the store opened in the morning. As soon as the store opened, the purchase of phones started immediately.

A video was seen on social media in which a man bought 5 iPhone 16 Pro Max simultaneously for his wife and kids. As soon as the Apple store in Mumbai opened, this person bought a total of 5 iPhone 16 Pro Max.

He said, ‘I bought five iPhones for my wife and kids.’ The person also revealed that he did not wait in the queue like most people. After booking the phone in advance, he said that the service of the store was excellent. He said, ‘The store handed over the phones to me in just half an hour. Of the five iPhones bought, four are 128 GB models, while one is 512 GB.’

All the phones in the iPhone-16 series come with A18 chipset and are much faster than the previous chipset. The phone protects against dust and water. For this, the iPhone has been given an IP68 rating. The company says that this set can stay in 6-meter deep water for 30 minutes.

Everyone is surprised to see the video of the man buying 5 iPhone-16 Pro Max simultaneously and many types of reactions were seen.

A user writes, ‘A full video should have been made of what this person does and how much is his income. People are being fooled. Everything is arranged.

Another user writes, ‘He more or less seems to be a Broker (dalaal) who might have opted to stand in a queue and bought 5 iPhone pro max on behalf of someone else (maybe 5 different people including one for himself). Approx 7.5 to 8 lakh rupees of the transaction must come into the IncomeTax radar.

Another user writes, ‘100% sure not paying correct tax which he is supposed to pay on income, all black money.’
