Last month Google announced the Nexus 6, the company’s flagship Nexus smartphone made by Motorola. Soon after the announcement Motorola India revealed that the smartphone would roll in 28 countries, including India starting later this year. The 32GB variant of the smartphone has been listed on Flipkart as Coming Soon, but the pricing is not mentioned.
This hints that it might launch in India soon. Google launched the Nexus 5 smartphone in India on Google Play within weeks after it was announced. The Google Nexus 9 tablet surfaced on Google Play Store in India recently along with the price tag, but it is yet to go on sale in the country.
