The Huawei Ascend G6 has been priced at Rs. 16,999 and is available via the online retailer Flipkart. (Note: It is available in Black color only.)

The phone’s specifications are not all impressive considering the price, and it will face stiff competition from the likes of the Moto G, and the Alcatel One Touch Idol X+, which offer a better experience in this budget.
