Moto G5 Plus price

So far, we know US and European prices for the Moto G5 Plus. At MWC, the company announced the smartphone’s 2GB RAM/ 32GB storage variant will be priced at $229 (roughly Rs. 15,300), while the 3GB RAM and 32GB storage variant will be priced at EUR 279 (roughly Rs. 19,700). Moto in some regions had unveiled a 4GB RAM/ 64GB storage variant, but pricing for that SKU is not clear. For now, it’s also uncertain just which SKUs Lenovo will bring to a price sensitive market like India. It may very well introduce a 16GB inbuilt storage variant in the country, and forego the 2GB RAM variant entirely.
