Motorola has officially confirmed that the recently launched Edge 30 would be arriving in India next week. The Moto Edge 30 was unveiled in European markets last week. This is the second smartphone in the Edge series to launch in India in 2022, following the arrival of the Motorola Edge 30 Pro, which was the first smartphone to adopt the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chip in the country.
The Moto Edge 30 India launch is set to take place on May 12. Motorola confirmed the launch of the vanilla Edge 30 through its social media channels, while a microsite for the phone has already gone live on Flipkart. This also suggests that the Moto Edge 30 will be sold exclusively through Flipkart after its launch in India.

Since the Motorola Edge 30 was already revealed globally, the specifications of the device are already well known. The Moto Edge 30 price was set at EUR 450 (Roughly Rs 36,500) in Europe, although it could be cheaper in India. The Motorola Edge 30’s price in India is likely to fall in the sub-30K segment just like its predecessor.
