The feature loaded Note 9 is priced steeply, with a starting price of Rs 67,900 for the base variant with 6GB RAM and 128 GB of internal storage. The higher variant with 8GB RAM and 512GB of internal storage is priced Rs 84,900.

Airtel has a new plan that will make this price seem much more achievable. The telecom company is offering the device at just Rs 7,900 but the offer comes with heavy terms and conditions.

For now, the company is only providing the 128GB variant with this plan. The buyer will have to spend Rs 71,976 in two years. Including the downpayment, the buyer will spend a total of Rs 79,876.
