The device is expected to launch on August 16 in copper gold, blue and silver colour variants. And although, the cost of the smartphone is yet to be officially announced, a Scandinavian retailer had claimed it will cost €589 (approximately Rs 43,415). However, the price tag is expected to be lower in other countries.
