The phone comes in three separate variants with varying RAM and ROM capacities and are hence priced accordingly.
The first variant sports a 4GB RAM and 64GB built-in ROM while the second and third are common in terms of the RAM (6GB) but a tad different in primary storage (64GB and 128GB respectively).
It is the 4GB RAM variant only that is being said to be coming to India, though.
