It’s unclear how much the Robin will cost at launch but with the initial US pricing coming in at $399, (approximately Rs. 25,000), we’re expecting a very similar price. The Robinrecently launched on Amazon USand it’s also likely that Amazon will be one of the launch partners in India.
To recap the specifications, the Nextbit Robin aims to address the issue of limited storage, through a unique cloud-first approach.
