To unlock the Legacy Offer or the exchange bonus, you’ll need to enter the IMEI number of either Phone 1 or Phone 2 on the Phone 3 Flipkart page.

Should You Get The Phone 3 At Rs. 34,999?
Although the discounted price could disappoint early adopters of the Phone 3, the BBD 2025 price of Rs. 34,999 brings the phone in line with what other Snapdragon 8s Gen 4-powered handsets cost in India. Hence, you can certainly look at the Phone 3 as a viable option, but only if you own a Phone 1 or Phone 2.
If you’re not an existing customer and have a budget of around Rs. 50,000 to Rs. 60,000, you can consider smartphones like the iPhone 16 (review) or the Galaxy S24 (review), which offer better value for your money. You could also extend your budget by Rs. 10,000 and get the iPhone 16 Pro instead.
