Phone and electronics delivery in minutes: which apps deliver
Updated October 2026
Phone and electronics delivery in minutes works in most big cities, and Blinkit and Flipkart Minutes have the widest range. Blinkit delivers iPhones, MacBooks, AirPods and laptops in 11 cities.
BigBasket delivers Croma mobiles and appliances, and JioMart delivers from Reliance Digital stores.
Which apps deliver phones, laptops and appliances
What you can order depends on your nearest store. A dark store holds only a few units of each model, so popular phones sell out fast, especially on launch days.
| App | What you can order | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Blinkit | Samsung and Apple phones, iPhone, MacBook Air, iPad, AirPods, Apple Watch; laptops, monitors and printers | Apple range in 11 cities since February 2025 |
| Flipkart Minutes | Smartphones, small appliances (kettles, air fryers, geysers, air purifiers), monitors | Electronics led the Flipkart Minutes tab in late 2024 |
| BigBasket BB Now (with Croma) | Mobiles and large appliances through a tie-up with Tata’s Croma | Electronics sales grew 500% at Diwali 2025 |
| JioMart (Reliance Digital) | Electronics from Reliance Digital stores | Range varies by store |
| Swiggy Instamart | Electronics category in the app | Range varies by store |
| Amazon Now | Electronics among its categories | Range varies by area |
Big appliances such as geysers and air purifiers come mainly from Flipkart Minutes and BigBasket with Croma. For phones and Apple products, Blinkit has the deepest range. Which of the two reaches you depends on your city, and Blinkit vs Flipkart Minutes compares their stores city by city.
Apps push electronics because one phone is worth as much as dozens of grocery orders. In January 2026, non-grocery orders, led by fashion, electronics and beauty, grew about 1.6 times faster than grocery.
Chargers, cables and other small electronics
Most electronics orders in a hurry are small: a phone charger, a USB cable, earphones, a power bank, batteries or a bulb. Grocery dark stores on Blinkit, Zepto and Instamart keep these alongside everyday items, so they are the easiest electronics to get in minutes. Search for the exact connector you need, such as USB-C or Lightning, and check the wattage on a charger before you order.
Phones, laptops and appliances sit in fewer stores and in smaller numbers, so the range you see changes a lot from one address to the next.
iPhone delivery in minutes on launch day
In September 2024 Blinkit delivered the iPhone 16 within minutes in several cities, on launch day. The wider Apple range followed in February 2025, in 11 cities named in the timeline further down.
Stock runs out quickly on launch day. Open the app early and check that your nearest store has your model and colour.
Where to find electronics on Flipkart Minutes
Flipkart Minutes is the app most built around electronics. In late 2024 its tab led with kettles, air fryers, smartphones and geysers ahead of groceries. It reached 150+ cities by September 2026 and has 1,202 stores now.
The standalone Flipkart Minutes app, launched in September 2026, focuses on staples, fruit and daily needs. For electronics, open the Flipkart Minutes tab in the main Flipkart app.
How to buy a phone or laptop safely on a quick delivery app
- Compare the price. Check the brand store and big e-commerce sales. Quick delivery is not always the cheapest.
- Read the return policy before you pay. Some apps accept returns only for a defect or a wrong item.
- Match the exact model. Check the model number, storage and colour on the product page against what you want. Variants with similar names can differ a lot in price.
- Check the seller and invoice. Look at the seller name and make sure a GST invoice is attached to the order. You need it for warranty claims.
- Check the seal at the door. Refuse a box that has been opened.
- Record the unboxing. Take a short video while opening costly items. If something is wrong, report it in the app the same day with the video.
