Apple launches an interesting leasing program in the US. I don't think it will be available in India anytime soon.

Called Apple Upgrade, it lets you get an iPhone, iPad, Mac, or Apple Watch by paying a monthly fee instead of paying the full price at once.

Plans start at $17.99/month for iPhone, $11.99/month for Apple Watch and iPad, and $24.99/month for Mac. You can choose 12 or 24 months for iPhone and Apple Watch, while iPad and Mac are available with 24 or 36-month plans.

You don't need to exchange your old device. Trading in an old device is optional and only helps lower your monthly payment.

For iPhones, you must use a postpaid plan from AT&T, Verizon, or T-Mobile. A quick credit check is also required before approval.

When your plan ends, you have three choices: return the device, pay the remaining amount and keep it, or upgrade to a newer model with a new plan.

Apple says there are no extra leasing charges, so if you decide to keep the device, you only pay the remaining
