Commenting on the launch, Sudhin Mathur, managing director, Motorola Mobility India and Country Head, Lenovo Mobile Biz Group, said:

“According to the reports fewer people are expected to upgrade to smartphones because of concerns over price, need and ability to use. We see this as a huge opportunity for a brand like us to initiate the smartphone journey for feature phone users. At Motorola, we focus on mobility through device innovation, user-centric design and smart connectivity to offer the best possible smartphone experience to the consumers.”

Earlier this month, Lenovo also announced the Moto C Plus along side the Moto C smartphone. However the company has only launched Moto C as of now and hasn’t yet revealed the arrival of its advanced version in India . The Moto C Plus bears a similar design as that of the Moto C but comes with more advanced features with a slightly heavy price tag.
