Moto G India launch details to be announced on February 5

Motorola, putting an end to speculation about the Moto G’s India launch, has announced that it will reveal the launch plans to its budget smartphone for the country on February 5.

Motorola confirmed the news on Twitter and said, “Moto G launch details for India will be announced on February 5. Stay tuned!” Unfortunately, the Google-owned company has revealed no details about the pricing of the Moto G for the Indian market.

Motorola has tied up with Flipkart as its online retail partner. It is unclear at the moment whether Flipkart would be the exclusive online retailer to begin with or whether it would have multiple partners at launch day. Motorola is expected to launch the dual-SIM variant of the Moto G in India.

Motorola officially unveiled the Moto G smartphone at an event in Sao Paulo, Brazil in November last year. The Motorola Moto G has been said to be available in at least 30 countries with 60 Google partners by 2014.

The Moto G is currently on sale in Brazil, Mexico, Chile, Argentina, Peru, UK, Germany, France, and Canada and is now also available in selective countries in Latin America, Europe and Asia. The Motorola Moto G is available with no contract, no SIM lock and an unlockable bootloader at $179 for the 8GB storage model in US, while the 16GB variant is available at $199.
