To meet such hefty digital functionalities, consumers are gradually shifting from prioritizing volume to valuing quality, as a result, the market share of premium smartphones has increased rapidly in the context of Nepal. To be able to afford such premium range phones in Nepal, one can consider the effective solution of Equity Monthly Installment (EMI).
But why should one consider opting for an EMI for a phone, and what makes it worth considering? In this article, we will explore the benefits of EMI schemes and discuss specific brands that provide such services in Nepal.
Why consider EMI schemes?
EMI schemes are worth considering when purchasing phones for several reasons. Firstly, they allow consumers to spread out the cost over monthly installments, fitting better into the budget. Secondly, EMI schemes provide financial flexibility as consumers don’t have to pay the full amount upfront, enabling them to manage their finances more efficiently. Additionally, EMI options may allow them to upgrade to a better model that would otherwise be out of their budget range. Some schemes also offer no-cost EMI, eliminating additional charges.
In Nepal, consumers have the opportunity to purchase Samsung, Xiaomi, and iPhone models through convenient EMI options with low or no interest. Here is a breakdown of the detailed information regarding these EMI schemes:
