Well, the price of both these smartphones have now come down as Gionee has announced a price cut for them in the country.
The Gionee A1 Lite has received a price cut of ₹1000 in India whereas the A1 Plus has received a price cut of ₹3000, which now translates to a price of ₹13,999 and ₹23,999 for A1 Lite and A1 Plus respectively. That said, customers are also offered additional 60 GB of data with A1 Lite by Airtel and A1 Plus by Reliance Jio. Moreover, customers are also offered Paytm Cashback Vouchers.
