5G is starting to roll out in India. Is this still a good time to purchase a 4G-only smartphone?

Gadgets 360 senior reviewer Sheldon Pinto and reviewer Pranav Hegde join Orbital host Akhil Arora to discuss just that — through the perspective of the Moto G72.

Launched earlier this week, the Moto G72 is a sub-Rs. 20,000 phone that offers a 120Hz HDR OLED display, a 108-megapixel rear camera, and a big 5000mAh battery. But there’s no 5G.

Pinto and Hegde offer their expert views, to help you decide whether you should buy a 4G phone in India today, or opt for a 5G alternative from Moto, Redmi, OnePlus, and beyond.
