8 GB variant will ranges from 11.5k to 12.5k

source?????

they are approx. Prices..
I added 500 to 1000 Rs. variation becoz of inflation in Indian rupees to American dollars..

My guess is it's gonna cost around 20K INR for sure .
It been a tradition to hike the prices of mid-range phones in Indian market than other markets....
The legendary Nexus devices which Google subsidizes also costs much more here ...
Nexus 4 still costs around 24k here ...
Nexus 5 launched at 29K (almost 5K more than rest markets) .
The Xperia C was rumored to be around 12-15 K (as in other markets), but Sony launched it at 20K Tag .
So I wouldn't be surprised to find Moto G 16 GB version to cost around 20K here in India .
Also it's gonna be Dual sim version that will be released here .
But I think it's still worth it , because it will get Kitkat and has a vanilla android experience !

Moto G 8gb
Hope they launch at a price tag of 12-13K , would be a good Side kick to my nexus 5 :fingers-crossed:

But how about buying abroad and bringing it inhere..?? I knw its a big deal for these range. I hope i could afford one..

8gb - 12 k, 16 gb 15k
Yes, we are getting it on January 2014 and it will cost 12 K rs for 8 gb and 15 k rs for 16 gb. to compete Samsung and other low cost mobile companies.

It wont meet half its projections if it gets anywhere above the 15-16k mark. Thats the market value of budget smartphones in here.

Motorola said in the release that Moto G will come at 1/3 Price of the High-End Devices like Note 3, S4 and iPhone 5s .
They all almost cost at round 50k so doing the Math (tax incl). Moto G will range from 18K to 22k (18k for 8gig ,20k for 16 gig,22k for Dual SIM 16 gig,20k for Dual SIM 8gig)

thats too high... for what they are offering even they know that they have to at least match the quotes of local players like micromax even if they cant go below there prices...
expect 13k-14k... thats the sweet spot ... anything below this will be a killer sale for moto... anything higher they'll loose half the customers..

Yep bro... will dual sim add another feature.?? Like-SD slot..
20 k is more.. I will give up buying if it prices more than 16k..
Greedy

MMX can prize there phone well because there profits are in Rs. They import Chipsets from Mediatek and make phone here (I think).They have to pay less tax than international flagships.
Moto will not prize it at 13k-14k because of it's specs ( it has the best ppi display,Qualcom Snapdragon 400 & 1 gig of ram,water-resistant nano-coating on the inside and outside,Gorrila glass).
Phones at this prize range rarely has Qualcom and this good specs.
If Moto lowers it's profit margin for India (which it will not I think) then it is possible for the price range to be between 14k-20k for various models (8gig,16gig,Dual sim 8 & 16gig)
Conclusion:Moto is not a new brand and not to forget Moto is the inverter of Mobile phone and Owned by Google so it won't lower it's status with launch price to be this low.I would be more than happy if the prize is 13k-14k but I don't think it will happen.

valid reasoning my friend but lets not forget that the higher the price more likely that we'll prefer to pay a little more and go for nexus 4 or nexus 5... Nexus 4 is still a cheap alternative which is still a kick ass phone..

That's true people will buy Nexus 4 or Sony Xperia SP. In India, phones are not really Value for Money compared to other nation and the Credit for this goes to INR vs USD and Indian Government for heavy taxing even to local manufactures like MMX.If Govt. gives subsidies to MMX and other Indian makers , they will out-grow with best specs and price to the International Flagships.

i'd like to see these companies setup manufacturing in inda.. give these companies tax benifits .. and they in turn will drive our ecnomy and create jobs.. and we can enjoy cheap phones... win win win..

Well I was following news one day, they were showing Narendra Modi's speech,the point that caught my attention was "Mobiles". He said that making mobiles is not rocket science , even then 90% of the market is of foreign company.With help from Government , India can make phone and not only make but Export them too.
I think he is unaware but MMX is exporting it's phones to UAE,etc. I know how Indian Politicians are, so not confident but if NaMo becomes PM we may have many cheap phone

Your math is quite off Unless you added some more for some reason.
One-third of 50k is still 16.7k.

This is wrong. There is no 16gb with single chip. The 16gb comes with 2 chips already and it's the most expensive here in Brazil.
The versions are:
8gb 1chip < 8gb 2chip < 16gb 2chip

Wow thats great...
Thanks dude.. can you tell me the 16Gb variants price

6X price keeps dropping, any issues?

Best buy now has the 6X for $179. I was debating this phone vs Moto G5S Plus or G5S Plus. The G5 is a steady $229 for 3gb and 32gb. Seems the Honor vs Moto is a very close rival like Mustang vs Camaro. Is the Moto worth $50 more? What is it with the Honor 6X to be so cheap now? I'm on T-Mobile network if their are any issues with that. Just curious how you guys feel vs the Moto. When I get off work I'm headed to Best buy as both are in stock
It's due to the soon to be released Honor 7x
Simply time is passing by, new devices will come out soon so is time for the "old" ones (neither 1 year from the exit date of 6X) to get ready to be shot out, it would be a nice move to sold the major quantity of 6X that are still in stock before the showcasing of new devices... you don't think? Jokes aside, the device hasn't nothing wrong. Great performances for a mid-range phone, satisfying camera, it only lacks on third-party development side since that Huawei sadly still have closed-source the codes for Kirin processors and so there aren't many developers interested, or willing to work on unknown sources... but the phone itself works very well.
I'm using the honor 6x on T-Mobile with no issues at all. LTE is working perfectly fine.

This is it.
I went thru 2 of the Honor 6x phones. Bluetooth problems with microphone on apps like Threema, Skype, Wire, etc. Beats X and Jaybird X3 both hated my 6x. Took Beats X back too, got Jaybird, and there's an issue with Note 4. I hope this Moto phone has zero issues as I've been using a Moto E4 (40 bucks) as a back up and it's the only stable phone of the bunch! Finally got fed up and grabbed the G5S Plus today. So far so good. I may give the 7x a shot in the near future, depends on the performance of this new Moto. I upgraded to the 4/64. I did love the feel and the usability of EMUI and the 6x, but broken Bluetooth is a deal breaker for me.
in India we had 6X in 50% discount last week for few limited numbers. Amazon provides good deals so we can get in 20% discount + cashback etc etc.
This is to clear the stocks before 7X and upcoming phones.

5X price is still more than 10K INR while it was launched at 13K INR.
6X was 13K INR but on sale it goes as low as upto 6-7K.
one of my friend purchased Honor 8 smart in 6.7K (700 cashback) while the phone was launched at 17K I think.

im exited for new snapdragon 710! i wonder what is its cheapest phone price?

hello people! i want to know your opinion on what will be the price for budget or cheapest SD 710 phones. i think companies like Xiaomi can make SD 710 for lower price, what do you think will be the lowest price? for some reason i can't see a good specs for 300 dollars, 400 dollar bellow seems to be the standard cheap price for 710 but im still hoping it can be low as 300 dollars. what do you think is the prices for budgets?

I suggest you check the motorola one fusion. The motorola one fusion have the following specs:
SoC: Qualcomm Snapdragon 710
Memory: 4GB RAM
Internal Storage: 64GB / 128GB
Screen: IPS LCD 6.5' 1600px * 720px (270 DPI)
Main camera: 48MP + 8MP + 5MP + 2MP.
Front camera: 8MP
Software: Android 10
Cell Network: 4G LTE, 800MB Download / 150MB Upload
Bluetooth: 5.0
Battery: 5000mhA
The motorola one fusion price is $5000 MXN in Mexico (about $227 USD with the current exchange rate).
I think that it's the lowest-cost phone with Qualcomm Snapdragon 710.
Ups ... I've forgotten check the post date. It's 2 years old from post date.
The SD 710 is a little old but it remains a good SoC.

Is the Huawee Mate 30 Pro value for money compared to other flagships?

In my country it is a challenge to get new flagship phones shortly after launch. For that reason, I tend to resort to eBay.
At this stage I can get a 256GB Galaxy Note 10 with 8GB RAM for U$900 or the 256GB Note 10+ with 12GB RAM for U$1030. (shipped)
In comparison, the best price I can find on the Huawei is the 128GB Mate 30 Pro with 8GB RAM in black for U$1100. (shipped)
The Huawei Mate 30 Pro has better camera hardware and Face ID technology but otherwise the Note 10+ has more storage, more RAM, MicroSD slot, dual speakers, higher resolution display, S-Pen and Google Mobile Services.
I really would like a Mate 30 Pro but I honestly think that Huawei is just asking too much. The phone is great but it isn't the best in every aspect of the hardware and it's unfortunately unable to use Google services.
It is not reasonable to ask U$1100 for the Mate 30 Pro.
If it was priced at U$850 - 900, I would probably have made the purchase already but instead, I'm contemplating the Note 10 despite having my heart set on the Mate 30 Pro.
Do you agree?
Wait a bit more time to buy it. HW sell at much lower price in China and Malaysia
Sent from my YAL-L21 using Tapatalk
Seems China price is about 30% less than Europe($810USD). If you can get someone buy you one and send to US, you probably end up paying $920-950USD(shipped) for 128GB 4G version.
And don't treat this piece of electronics same as other cheap product you found in Walmart made in China.
price on aliexpress with the Broken screen insurance
Honestly, if it's going to be hard to get Google services on this phone, then it can't compete with other flagships. Would need a massive discount for it to be considered good value.

What is your favorite Android phone as of now?

Many options out there!
I have my second Xiaomi smartphone now. I've been with this brand for 7 years now. My father and brother also use Xiaomi phones. I am generally satisfied of how they work though I sometimes have connection problems (not sure whether it's me or the phone). Before Xiaomi I had Samsung back in 2012. I guess Samsung nowadays is getting better but I still don't really trust them after that experience
To be honest, for me Android-based phones are the best :highfive:
Well depends on the budget of course, I can name a $1,000 phone but I don't have the money.
I like the LG G7 ThinQ or a V40 they are a good bang for buck. I am tired of glass phones though they break too easy, so I would put it in a case. For the price this phone offer so much.
---------- Post added at 06:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:41 AM ----------
What'd be nice is another HTC M8 style phone but more modern hardware and design but still metal back and dual speakers but also all glass screen, put the speakers under the glass somehow make the chin appear smaller.
Android is my favorite...on the OnePlus 8 Pro for now! Cheers
I used to have Redmi 8, enjoyed it a lot. Now I decided to try a Honor 10i and I am just in love with it.
Mate 10 was awesome, I think that was Best 16:9 phone by far.
Now, I agree, Note 20 is so good.
Galaxy Note 20 is the best for me
Sure, if we have an unlimited budget I also will go for the Note 20
Myself I won't spend more than $200 on a phone and no post paid, not getting it from a carrier since I only use very few minutes and mostly just wifi. Like right now my plan is 250 minutes or text a month for free, so I haven't had to spend even $10 on my cell service in at least 3 months Hence why I just buy my phones used and not more than $200 budget, anything more is a waste for me.
But if I didn't have access to a PC with broadband cable internet 24 hours a day it might be different for me.
Also I would always be worrying about my phone if it were that expensive. You can buy a used car or motorcycle for the same price as a Samsung Note 20!

The Pixel 3 XL, since it's supported by GrapheneOS and should be supported for a few more years. I used to enjoy the Pixel 2, but it's no longer being upgraded by the GrapheneOS team, which sucks, because it's a very capable device.

Oneplus Nord price leaked?

Oneplus Nord price and design revealed? 261€ its a very good price! O hope it is true!

PS: sorry, website is in portuguese. Use Google translate
Nah it's about 500€.

In India, acc. to me base model of OnePlusNord will launch between ₹20k-25k
I don't see this device going for less than €499,
Pity really because they could give it for less
So it's not the same profil than before.... OnePlus is not a flagship killer (like OP5 with the last SOC 835 128/8Go for 529 €/$) now we have the same specs at the same price in 2020 with a low SoC, no 90hz screen, no stereo speaker, no IP68 cert... So always the same missing features, there any advantage to buy +500 $/€ this Nord phone instead a 7T at 499 €/$ or a Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro

No it's confirmed... 90hz was a non officiel information/leak specs, from some sources it's annonced only 60hz
So... Not "lol", i hope it's a mistake, because i want a 90Hz
From my point of view they failed to place the Nord as a successor to the X. They try to mark it eves as "more than a successor" but it is way to big to fulfill the role as a successor anyways for me. Also 500€ is not a "budget" phone, this is already a lot of money tbh. I had high hopes in this model but with this body size and price point this is already a nogo

Agreed, if this is 500 euros, it's dead in the waters.
If it was released in the U.S. at that price, it wouldn't be too bad.
But EU having so many options at budget pricing, this is a bad price.

Realme x50 came out at 349 with same chip so I can't see them justify a €500 price tag,
€400 would be fair but do think it will be hgher
is 399 euro or 499 euro (more ram and storage)
On Amazon there is an offer of €30 off the Nord in most countries like Spain and France of you have Amazon Prime so you can get it for €369 if you just sign up for a trial of Prime.
In UK the Offer is £379 minus £30 which is decent at £349
