Do you like the Motorola Moto E? Its combination of great specs and low price have made it a great phone to buy. However, latest reports suggest that Motorola is working on another budget smartphone. Currently known as the Moto C, the smartphone may slot below the Moto E. But why do we say that? Take a look at Motorola’s naming convention – Moto E, Moto G, Moto M, Moto Z. Going by that logic, Moto C is expected to slot in below Moto E. Read on to find out more about Motorola Moto C price, expected launch date, specifications, camera, variants and more:
Motorola Moto C Price in India
| Moto C Price (expected) | Rs 7,000 |

The Motorola Moto C has been announced. It will come in three variants – 3G, 4G and Plus. However, India is expected to get the 4G and Plus variants only. Also, the price seems to be a bit on the higher side. However, expect them to come down a bit when India launch happens. After all, there needs to be space for Moto E as well, if Motorola plans to keep the phone in its India lineup.
Motorola Moto C Launch Date
| Launch Date (expected) | Later first half/Early second half of 2017 |
Motorola Moto C has been revealed internationally. However, that is no indication of how soon this phone will come to India. However, going by how Motorola goes about its business, expect the Moto C to come to India real quick. Our timeline above is an optimistic one as Motorola may bring these devices to India as early as June.
