Lenovo launched the Moto G5 and Moto G5 Plus smartphones in India earlier this year, and has priced it starting at Rs. 11,999. When launched, Motorola announced that the Moto G5 was an Amazon India exclusive, while the Moto G5 Plus was a Flipkart exclusive only. However, Gadgets 360 has now learnt from sources that offline retailers have received stocks of the two phones as well, making them now available online as well as offline.
