However, It is not clear as of now that which smartphones from the Moto Z series will be launched in India. Moto Z Series includes three different smartphones which are Moto Z, the Moto Z Force, or the Moto Z Play.
We have no confirmation so far that which out of three or if all three are going to make their way into the country.
To recall, Lenovo India had in June confirmed that the Moto Z along with the magnetic Snap-on back panels, the Moto Mods, would launch in India by October. The Moto Z Play, a more affordable variant of the Moto Z modular smartphone was announced at IFA 2016.
