Let The Game Starts With Moto X Play

Motorola, among its latest fleet of smartphones, launched its budget Moto G (Gen 3) in India while introducing the Moto X Style and Moto X Play at global events in July. The Lenovo-owned company is now teasing the launch of a new smartphone in India, and it is supposed to be the cheaper Moto X Play handset.
