Why Motorola Postponed the G4 Launch to Next Month, explains India Head Amit Boni
Amit Boni, in an interview with News18, explained why the company shifted the launch of the G4 to next month.

In line with rumours and leaks, Motorola introduced the next-gen Moto G in two editions - the Moto G4, which is a base model, and the G4 Pus (with a fingerprint sensor and a better megapixel count), but what took many aback was the company's decision to release the G4 Plus with immediate effect, while postponing the G4 launch to next month.

This was surprising more so because companies have usually been seen bringing the regular edition first - if not both.

And therefore to understand the company's move better, we asked Amit Boni, Motorola India head, to explain why the G4 India launch has been shifted to June.

Clearing the air, Amit said, "We have actually introduced both the products - the Moto G4 and the G4 Plus. The G4 supplies will come slightly later. So we didn’t want to lose any time because there is a lot of anticipation around the G4 as well as the G4 Plus. So we wanted to make sure that we introduce these new products as soon as possible. So as soon as we get the supplies for them in June, we will introduce that product as well."

The G4 may be here in a few weeks, but given that the G4 Plus comes with a fingerprint sensor and at competitive prices, I wonder how many of the prospective buyers would actually like to opt for the base model, which anyway is likely to cost only a little lower than the G4 Plus.

The price of the Moto G4 will be announced next month when it goes on sale. The G4 Plus, on the other hand, comes in two variants - 16 GB for Rs 13,499 and 32 GB for Rs 14,499.
