Motorola Moto E available on Flipkart now [Update]

UPDATE: The Motorola Moto E has actually gone out of stock within one hour of its being made available once again on Flipkart.

The two-day stint of the Moto E on Flipkart had left many disappointed, but those affected thought they had one more chance to lay their hands on the affordable smartphone. The website had announced that it would restock the device open up to accept orders at 11am.

This second wave of Moto phones was expected to vanish off shelves quickly, though we couldn’t have known that excessive demand would bring the store crashing down as it did. And for those who have already bought the KitKat-equipped gadget, how about some customization? As promised, Flipkart has made available the colorful back shells of the Moto E.

These come in six different colors, but three of them already appear to be out of stock. A new back plate will set you back by Rs. 899, but if you were a day-one buyer of the Moto E better make sure to apply the 50 percent discount code which you won with it.

For those unaware, customers who bought the device on its release day were granted codes for grabbing 50 percent discounts on one of these back shells as well as on an 8GB Transcend microSD card. Moreover, a code for downloading free eBooks worth Rs 1,000 has also been provided to them.

Both black and white models of the Moto E are expected to be back in stock on Flipkart sooner or later. The phone is priced at an ultra-affordable Rs 6,999.
