The device will be made exclusively on Flipkart and will launch in the midst of Flipkart’s Big Billion Days sale. The device is priced at $349 (approximately Rs 25,500) in the US and is expected to be priced between Rs 30,000 to Rs 35,000 with the taxes and the import duties. The company is yet to reveal the price of the phone.
It will be made available in the single Jet Black colour option, in the sole 6GB RAM and 128GB storage configuration. The company has already announced that it will not be launching its Pixel 5 and Pixel 4a 5G in India, due to the unavailability of 5G networks.
To recall, the company did not launch the Pixel 4 in India too, due to it coming with a Soli Radar feature, which was banned in India. The last Pixel phone launched in India was the Pixel 3a in May, last year.
