Motorola has announced Moto G60 and Moto G40 Fusion budget phones in India today. Both the devices are priced under Rs 20,000 and are set to take on the Redmi Note 10 series and Realme 8 series in India.
The Moto G60 is the star phone among the two and it comes with very competitive specs like a 108MP camera, a 120Hz display, and a massive 6,000mh battery. The Moto G40 Fusion, on the other hand, is basically the same as the Moto G60, but with a slight change on the rear camera setup.
Motorola has been pretty good with its smartphone strategy for the past few months although it hasn’t launched as many phones as the competition. The USP of the devices in addition to the impressive specs is the near Stock Android experience and security features that Motorola is promising.
