[rahul1117kumar]

According to Gadgets 360’s sources, offline retailers have received stocks of both the Moto G5 and the Moto G5 Plus. BGR India reached out to Motorola, and the company has confirmed that the Moto G5 and the Moto G5 Plus will be available offline. Motorola has also confirmed that the devices have already reached outlets across the country.

When the Moto G5 and the Moto G5 Plus were launched in India, there was a lot of hue and cry about the smartphones being exclusive to online platform. In fact, the Moto G5 Plus witnessed record sales on the first day of its launch with over 50 units sold per minute. This move comes at a time when Motorola just launched its budget smartphones, the Moto C and Moto C Plus which will be available in offline stores. The company appears to be heading to the offline segment to boost its sales.

It's waste of time to go-to the store. First of all they didn't have a sample piece. Secondly, the price is 1.2k higher than online.

Guys it's obvious that prices will be higher in offline market. Actually they have done well to keep it under 1000, else distribution costs easily add 1500-2000₹ per piece. That was the reason cos can give better specs online. There is a big distribution chain & at every stage someone has to earn some money.

Try bargaining, they might reduce few hundred.
