Moto Razr Flip Phone to Go on Sale May 6th in India Following Multiple Postponements

Apr. 15, 2020

The Moto Razr was originally set to be available for purchase in India from April 2, but the date was postponed to April 15 (today) once the lockdown measures were announced to combat the pandemic. However, with social distancing guidelines now extended until May 3rd, the phone’s availability has now been postponed for the second time. It will be interesting to see if Lenovo will go ahead with the launch on May 6th even if the government extends the lockdown beyond May 3rd.

News about Made-in-India Moto Razrs made us hopeful that Lenovo will price it at reasonable levels, but that turned out to be wishful thinking. The phone sports an astronomical price-tag of Rs. 1.25 lakh in India, making it really difficult to recommend, given that theGalaxy Z Flipwith faster hardware, clamshell design, and Samsung’s extensive after-sales network, is availableat a relatively lower price pointfor folks looking for a clamshell smartphone.
