After launching the Moto G5 Plus in India earlier this month, it is the turn of Moto G5 to hit the market. Lenovo – the parent company of Motorola – will host the Moto G5 India launch event on April 4, and has started sending out invites to the media for the same.
Moto G5 exclusive to Amazon
Unlike its sibling, which is exclusive to Flipkart, the upcoming Moto G5 will be sold exclusively on Amazon India, and is confirmed to go on sale in India at 12am IST on April 5. Special Moto G5 launch offers will be provided to Amazon Prime customers in the country. Prior to this, Moto phones such as Moto G (Gen 3), Moto G Play, Moto G4, Moto G4 Plus, Moto G Turbo Edition, Moto X Force, Moto Z and Moto Z Play have been sold on Amazon.
Moto G5 price in India
The Moto G5 is the smaller variant of the Moto G5 Plus with many differences in specifications as well. The device will presumably be cheaper than the Moto G5 Plus (Review), which was launched in India for Rs. 14,999 for the 3GB RAM+16GB storage variants, and Rs. 16,999 for the 4GB RAM+32GB storage variant. Official price and availability details will be announced at the April 4 event. Both the smartphones were first unveiled at MWC in Barcelona.
