Moto g86 POWER: Motorola has officially launched the moto g86 POWER in India today, delivering what it calls the perfect all-rounder under Rs 20,000. The new device went on sale starting 12 PM via Flipkart, Motorola.in, and leading offline retail stores, at an effective starting price of Rs 16,999, including bank offers.
Positioned as a flagship killer in the budget segment, the moto g86 POWER packs premium features typically reserved for higher-priced devices — including the segment’s brightest 6.67-inch 1.5K pOLED display, a 50MP Sony LYTIA 600 camera with OIS, a massive 6720mAh battery, IP68/IP69 durability, and the MediaTek Dimensity 7400 chipset.
Stunning Display and Design
One of the biggest highlights of the moto g86 POWER is its industry-leading pOLED Super HD display. The 6.67-inch flat panel offers a peak brightness of 4500 nits, 120Hz refresh rate, 10-bit colour, and 100% DCI-P3 colour gamut for immersive viewing. Protected by Gorilla Glass 7i, the display is also equipped with Smart Water Touch 2.0 and SGS Eye Protection, making it user-friendly even under harsh conditions.
Aesthetically, the phone comes in a premium vegan leather finish, available in three Pantone-curated colours — Golden Cypress, Cosmic Sky, and Spellbound — all designed to offer both style and grip without smudges. Despite the large battery, the phone weighs just 198 grams, maintaining a balanced and comfortable in-hand feel.
