Moto G56 5G Expected Price and Availability
The Moto G56 5G is tipped to be priced at €250 (approx. USD 283 / ₹23,880) for the 8GB RAM + 256GB storage model, similar to its predecessor. While the global launch is expected soon alongside the Moto G86 5G, it remains uncertain whether Motorola will introduce the G56 5G in India, given that the Moto G55 never made it to the Indian market.

With a premium IP69-rated design, 120Hz display, upgraded MediaTek Dimensity 7060 processor, and a 5200mAh battery, the Moto G56 5G is shaping up to be a feature-packed mid-ranger. If Motorola brings this model to more regions, including India, it could prove to be a strong contender in the under-₹25,000 5G smartphone segment.
