The Lenovo-owned company has announced that the Motorola RAZR (2019) will go on sale in India on May 6. Just yesterday, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi extended the nationwide lockdown till May 3. After the lockdown period ends, the latest Motorola smartphone will be available for purchase. To recall, the Motorola RAZR was launched in India in March this year. The foldable phone comes with a price label of Rs 1,24,999.
“Due to the prevailing situation and extension of nationwide lockdown, sale of all non-essential products and services has been discontinued. In line with the government guidelines, Motorola razr will now go on sale after the revised lockdown period, starting May 6th 2020 (which was earlier scheduled for 15th April, 2020). We are hopeful that the situation will get better in the coming days and are working with our partners towards ensuring a smooth purchase experience for consumers across both online and offline channels, once the lockdown is lifted,” the company said.
