Motorola Edge 60 Pro India Launch Confirmed: 6,000 mAh Battery, Starts at ₹29,999 I was standing near Sarojini Nagar with the Delhi sun unrelenting at 42 °C when a 15-minute Genshin Impact session on the Motorola Edge 60 Pro left me surprised - the phone barely heated, yet stats were solid.  This page exists to show why the Edge 60 Pro isn’t just another mid-range phone - it’s one built for real-world India. This article provides an in-depth, first-hand style review and feature breakdown of the Motorola Edge 60 Pro, helping buyers decide whether it’s worth the price in 2025 Brief Field Moment Reveals Thermal Discipline That moment felt important. Other phones throttle under the sun; this didn’t.  Immediately, I understood that Motorola built this phone not to flex specs but to solve practical problems.  That makes this not a spec sheet rewrite but a story of real users under real conditions.

Launch Confirmed: Moto G96 5G Teased with 144Hz pOLED Display and 50MP Sony Camera


Launch Confirmed: Moto G96 5G Teased with 144Hz pOLED Display and 50MP Sony Camera

I remember attending the Moto G60’s chaotic India launch a few years ago - crowds spilling over showroom floors, with eager fans queuing up just to get a glimpse of the new 108MP sensor. That energy, that sheer anticipation, seems to be returning.

This time, it's the upcoming Moto G96 5G, which Motorola India just teased with a “All Eyes on You” campaign across its social channels.

The visual teaser shows a phone in four color variants, rounded edges, and a clear focus on cameras. Based on the design cues and internal sources, the teased model closely aligns with the yet-to-be-official Moto G96 5G, which recently surfaced in global certification listings.

As per a tipster familiar with Motorola’s India roadmap, the phone is expected to offer high-end features in a familiar sub-₹25,000 range - right in the sweet spot for India’s value-conscious 5G market.

Launch Confirmed: Moto G96 5G Teased with 144Hz pOLED Display and 50MP Sony Camera

Specifications (Expected)


Display: 6.67-inch pOLED curved 10-bit panel, 144Hz refresh rate


Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 SoC


RAM & Storage: Up to 12GB RAM and 256GB internal storage


Rear Camera:


50MP Sony Lytia LYT-700C sensor with Optical Image Stabilization (OIS)


8MP ultra-wide sensor with macro functionality


Front Camera: 32MP selfie shooter


Battery: 5,500mAh with 68W fast charging support


Audio: Stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos


Build: Likely to ship with IP68 water and dust resistance


OS: MyUX on top of near-stock Android 14

Price & Availability


India: Rumored starting price of ₹22,990 for 12GB + 256GB variant


US (expected): No confirmation yet, but may launch in select unlocked markets under Edge branding


Competitor comparison:


Redmi Note 13 Pro (₹25,999): Better SoC, but lacks IP68


Samsung Galaxy M14 5G (₹14,490): Cheaper, but lower refresh rate and LCD screen


iQOO Z9 (₹19,999): Similar pricing, but no OIS in the primary camera

From my years covering this segment, Motorola tends to position its “G” series at the intersection of reliability and slight undercutting. 

The G96 5G seems designed to compete aggressively on optics and display tech - two areas where Moto has lagged historically.

What to Expect on Launch Day


Motorola India tends to favor quiet drops via Flipkart with a short teaser-to-launch gap. Based on prior trends, we can expect:

Online exclusivity at launch (likely via Flipkart)


Early bird pricing or bundled offers for the first 24–48 hours


Limited availability of higher RAM variants initially


Offline retail rollout after 2–3 weeks post online launch

A senior analyst tracking mid-tier smartphones in India remarked, “The Moto G96 is timed perfectly. As more Gen Z users seek premium-looking phones under ₹25,000, Motorola’s pOLED + Sony sensor combo is a smart bet.”

Community Buzz


A Flipkart user who previously reviewed the Moto G73 5G shared:

"If they give a curved pOLED and proper OIS at this price, I’m ready to switch back to Moto. Stock Android plus good build quality is underrated."

Over on Reddit’s r/IndianGamingPhones, users speculated that the G96’s 144Hz refresh rate might also appeal to casual mobile gamers seeking responsive displays without spending on flagship phones.

Why This Matters in the Indian Market


India's 5G transition is no longer aspirational - it's happening now. The ₹20,000–₹25,000 price band is crowded, but most models still compromise on one major area: display, software, or cameras. 

If Motorola delivers on the rumored pOLED panel and OIS-backed Sony sensor while retaining its clean UI reputation, the Moto G96 5G could stand out as a compelling alternative to Xiaomi and Realme offerings.


Additionally, buyers fatigued by ad-heavy Android skins might find Moto's near-stock experience refreshing.

Moto India teases new phone, likely to be the Moto G96 5G


Features expected: 144Hz curved pOLED, Sony 50MP OIS camera, Snapdragon 7s Gen 2, IP68, and 68W charging


Likely price: ₹22,990 for 12GB + 256GB variant


Launch may happen soon via Flipkart with early bird offers


Strong alternative to Redmi Note 13 Pro and Samsung M14 5G in India

WhatsApp Just Stopped Working on iPhone 6 Urgent Alert for Users

WhatsApp Ends Support for iPhone 6: Users Locked Out After August Update I still remember standing outside a buzzing Apple store in Delhi in early May, interviewing Rishi, a college student who had queued up for a refurbished iPhone 8.  He looked visibly frustrated. “WhatsApp just stopped working on my iPhone 6 yesterday,” he said, holding up the device with a cracked screen.  He had missed a crucial update from his internship coordinator due to the app cutoff. “I didn’t even know support had ended.” That moment stuck with me - not because of the technicality of a software update, but because of the very real impact it had on someone trying to climb up in life with limited tools. And he’s not alone. This article explains why WhatsApp ended support for older iPhones, running iOS below 15.1, including the iPhone 5s, 6, and 6 Plus who it impacts, and what steps affected users can take immediately to stay connected.

Threads App Update: New Shortcuts for Saved & Liked Posts

Meta Threads App Adds New Sidebar Shortcuts: Saved and Liked Posts Now 1 Tap Away This article explores the latest Threads update that adds shortcuts for ‘Saved’ and ‘Liked’ posts It was just past midnight when I instinctively reached for my phone - scrolling through Threads had become my late-night routine. The interface felt different that day. In the sidebar, two new icons had quietly appeared: "Saved" and "Liked." A subtle change, yet one that immediately improved my navigation through the app.  Hours later, Twitter's most consistent tech tipster, Ahmed Ghanem (@ahmedghanem), confirmed the update in his characteristically crisp style. "#Threads added shortcuts for “Saved” and “Liked” posts in the app’s new side menu." As someone who follows platform shifts professionally and personally, this update, and Ghanem’s precise tipoff, signaled something deeper than UX tweaks.  It echoed the evolving strategy of Meta's Twitter-competitor to quietly but...
