New Delhi: Lenovo-owned Motorola on Monday launched its new smartphone – Moto X Force, the phone with the world's first shatterproof display pricing it at Rs 49,999 onwards.

The smartphone is the Indian version of the Droid Turbo 2, which was the launch in the US in October in 2015.

The Moto X Force has been priced at Rs 49,999 for the 32GB variant and Rs 53,999 for the 64GB variant.

The device, featuring shatterproof screen, features 5.4-inch display and is powered by a 2GHz octa-core processor along with 3GB of RAM.

It will be available from February 8 on Flipkart and Amazon as well as offline retail stores like Croma and Spice Retail.

"One of the constant complaints we heard from customers was screens shattering and the replacement sometimes costing as much as the phone itself. This is the problem that we wanted to solve," Motorola India General Manager Amit Boni said.

The handset also features a 21MP rear and 5MP front cameras and 3,760 mAh battery as well as external storage of up to 2 TB.
