Motorola Edge Plus has gone official in India with a price tag of Rs 74,999 and while this wasn’t unexpected given that it packs flagship-grade hardware, many, including us, assumed that the Edge Plus will likely go up against the likes of Xiaomi Mi 10 5G which launched recently for Rs 49,999 bearing a similar set of internals.
At its asking price, the Motorola Edge Plus goes up against the likes of Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus and Apple iPhone 11. The phone was announced alongside a regular Motorola Edge on April 22. Let’s take a brief look at the specifications, pricing and availability of the Motorola Edge Plus.
