Motorola Edge Plus to launch soon in India, Moto country head confirms

Motorola Edge+ will launch in India in the coming weeks and has its eyes set on two recently launched phones, the OnePlus 8 series and Apple iPhone SE 2020. The Indian launch of the flagship smartphone by Lenovo-backed Motorola could be held sometime after the nation-wide lockdown eases or when e-commerce companies are allowed to deliver smartphones and laptops to customers. Due to the outbreak of Coronavirus in India and various parts of the world, the smartphone industry has been affected by manufacturing shutdowns that’s led to delayed launches and availability of products. 

Motorola Edge+ alongside the Edge was unveiled last week on April 22 after many leaks and rumours. The phones were previously set to be announced during the MWC 2020, but the event fell victim to the COVID-19 crisis. 

Prashant Mani, Country Head of Motorola India tweeted out an official video of the Motorola Edge+, stating the phone will eventually be making it’s way to the country very soon. The video highlights the key specifications of the phone such as 5G support, Snapdragon 865 chip, 108MP camera and more. We can expect Motorola to launch the Edge+ in India after e-commerce companies are allowed to accept orders for mobile phones.
