    Smart sharp and supercharged Moto g67 powers up

    MUMBAI: Looks like Motorola just turned up the charge. The tech brand has unleashed the moto g67 Power, a sub- Rs 15,000 smartphone that’s practically buzzing with energy, and style. With a whopping 7000mAh battery, a 50MP Sony Lytia 600 camera, and a sleek Pantone-curated vegan leather design, this one’s got both stamina and swagger.

    Launching at an effective price of Rs 14,999, the moto g67 Power is geared for those who live life unplugged. The phone’s silicon carbon battery promises up to 58 hours of runtime on a single charge, making low-battery anxiety a thing of the past.

    But it’s not just about endurance. The handset flexes a Snapdragon 7s gen 2 chip, 8GB RAM (expandable to 24GB), and 128GB storage, ensuring a lag-free experience whether you’re gaming, streaming, or toggling between 27 tabs at once. Connectivity-wise, it’s no slouch either, offering support for 11 5G bands, VoNR, and Wi-Fi 6.

    Camera buffs get plenty to click about. The moto g67 Power boasts the segment’s best 50MP Sony LYTIA 600 sensor, 8MP ultrawide lens, and a 32MP selfie camera, all capable of 4K recording. Add Motorola’s AI photo tricks like auto night vision and AI-powered portraits, and your social feed might just start looking like a mini film festival.

    Durability is another headline act. With corning gorilla glass 7i, MIL-STD-810H military-grade testing, and IP64 water resistance, this phone could probably survive a clumsy tumble or two, and still look good doing it.

    Entertainment-wise, the 6.7-inch FHD+ 120Hz display dazzles with 1050 nits brightness, while dolby atmos dual speakers bring the bass to your binge sessions.

    Available in cilantro green, parachute beige, and blue curacao, the moto g67 Power goes on sale from 12 November on Flipkart, Motorola.in, and at leading retail stores.

    As Motorola India managing director T.M. Narasimhan put it, “The moto g67 Power delivers the best camera and battery experience under Rs 15,000, a powerful blend of performance, innovation, and style.”

    With its marathon battery, polished design, and AI smarts, Motorola’s latest might just be the pocket powerhouse to beat this season.

    Motorola turns up the volume with Bose-tuned Loop and bass-heavy buds

    MUMBAI: When it comes to sound, Motorola just dropped the bass, literally. The smartphone giant, now calling itself India’s leading AI phone brand, has launched two true wireless earbuds designed to take on every mood, beat and playlist: the moto buds Loop powered by Bose Audio, and the moto buds Bass with segment-best 50db active noise cancellation.

    Priced at Rs 7,999 (with a bank offer cutting Lop to Rs 6,999) and Rs 1,999 for Bass, the earbuds go on sale 1st September and 8 September respectively, across Flipkart, Motorola.in, and retail stores. Both arrive armed with features aimed squarely at India’s growing tribe of music junkies, gamers, and on-the-go professionals.

    The moto buds Loop stand out with an open-ear design tuned by Bose, 12mm ironless drivers, and spatial sound for 3D-like immersion. They deliver 8 hours on a single charge and 39 hours with the case, plus a quick 10-minute top-up for 3 hours of playback. Add IP54 water resistance, a memory alloy frame, and trekking green finish, and Loop is more style statement than accessory.

    For bass-heads, the moto buds Bass promise Super Bass tuning, Hi-Res LDAC audio, and 12.4mm composite dynamic drivers. With 50db ANC across a 4kHz range, users can toggle between Adaptive, Transparency, or Noise Cancelling modes at will. Battery life stretches to 7 hours (ANC off) plus 41 hours with the case, totalling a marathon 48 hours. Quick cadds 2 hours of playback in 10 minutes. At just 51g, with triple-mics on each bud and finishes like dark shadow, blue jewel, and posy green, these are built for marathon listening sessions without compromise.

    Connectivity gets a boost too both models feature Bluetooth 5.3, Google fast Pair, and Crystaltalk AI to cut through background chaos on calls. With smart connect and moto ai integration, users can switch devices or trigger commands (“Catch me up”) hands-free, making them lifestyle companions as much as audio gear.

    Motorola India MD T.M. Narasimhan summed it up: “With Loop and Bass, we’re blending technology, design and usability to create audio experiences that resonate with evolving lifestyles.” Translation? Whether you crave Bose-tuned clarity or chest-thumping bass, Motorola now has a bud for every beat.

  • Criteo and Flipkart dial up Motorola’s buzz with data-driven ads

    Criteo and Flipkart dial up Motorola’s buzz with data-driven ads

    MUMBAI: Call it a smart move Motorola’s brand buzz just got a signal boost. In a bid to turbocharge its budget smartphone presence, Motorola teamed up with Flipkart Ads and global commerce media giant Criteo to launch a data-fuelled campaign that’s made noise for all the right reasons. Over a 13-month stretch, this retail media offsite strategy didn’t just work, it rang in results loud and clear.

    Using Flipkart’s Product Performance Ads and Criteo’s Retail Media Offsite Solution, the campaign reached 110 million unique users, clocked over 1.1 billion ad impressions, and achieved a remarkable 34 percent engagement rate. But more than just vanity metrics, it translated into business results: an 18 percent rise in Share of Voice (SOV) for Motorola on Flipkart’s product pages.

    The goal? To engage high-intent audiences not just on Flipkart, but across the wider internet and then lead them back to Flipkart’s app and website. With Criteo’s precision-targeting and Flipkart’s first-party data at play, the dynamic display ads served to 86 percent of the relevant audience base delivered a full-funnel marketing impact.

    According to Motorola, marketing head, APAC Shivam Ranjan, “The collaboration has helped Motorola forge direct connections with more than 110 million high-intent users. The campaign’s performance validates our commitment to data-led storytelling and customer engagement.”

    Flipkart Ads vice president and general manager Vijay Iyer highlighted the importance of the campaign’s closed-loop strategy: “Our Product Performance Ads helped Motorola scale up with high-impact re-engagement tactics using real-time performance data and audience intelligence.”

    Meanwhile Criteo India country head Medhavi Singh called it a demonstration of “cutting through the digital clutter” with hyper-personalised engagement. She added, “The real-time insights and tight integration with retail platforms allowed us to tailor the messaging, improving visibility and conversions across every touchpoint.”

    The partnership underscores a wider shift in digital commerce where data, not discounts, drive discovery. With the retail and e-commerce space becoming more crowded than ever, this campaign is a case study in how to get seen, heard, and remembered.

    The success story signals a new era for Indian e-commerce marketing, one where personalised, offsite display ads could just be the main character in a brand’s growth narrative.

    Drawn to attention Flipkart sketches a buzz for Motorola Edge 60

    MUMBAI: When it comes to grabbing eyeballs, Flipkart and SW Network didn’t just think outside the box they drew outside the lines. In a bold and brilliantly visual activation, Flipkart collaborated with integrated advertising agency SW Network to bring the Motorola Edge 60’s stylus feature to life, literally. Shoppers at Nexus Select Citywalk in Saket, New Delhi, were treated to a live art performance, where artists wielded a giant stylus to doodle directly onto the mall courtyard, transforming the bustling shopping hub into a buzzing, open-air sketchpad.

    The larger-than-life installation drew crowds who watched in awe, snapped selfies, and shared the experience online turning an offline moment into a digital wave. By highlighting the stylus feature in such a hands-on and artistic way, the campaign cleverly bridged functionality with flair.

    SW Network Co-founder, Raghav Bagai commenting on the campaign said, “We believe creative ideas should solve real business needs. In this case, highlighting the stylus, quite literally, made the brand stand out and got people to sit up and take notice of an otherwise cluttered category. Mission accomplished.”

    SW Network, director of youthbeat Shubham Chawla said, “What looked like a simple doodle on the floor was actually the result of 12 hours of relentless effort and planning. But that’s the thing with good ideas, they often appear effortless, but making them real takes a whole lot of hard work behind the scenes.”

    The activation didn’t end at the mall. A newspaper jacket ad carried the campaign further, inviting readers to try the stylus themselves, extending the experience across media and minds.

    In a market where campaigns often blur into one another, this one scribbled its way into consumer consciousness showing that a bit of creativity (and a really big pen) can go a long way.
