Ever since Motorola announced that it is planning to bring the Moto G to India, there have been speculations regarding the device’s launch. Initially we heard that the device will be here in January, but then it got delayed and the company said it will reveal the launch details on February 5.
And that’s exactly what Motorola has done. Today it disclosed the price and availability details of the phone that will not set you back by a penny more than Rs 14,499.
