Nextbit asserts that this colour variant is just available till stock lasts, and that the stock will not be replenished in the future. The price of the smartphone in India is Rs. 19,999.
The company has also announced that beta testers should've received the forthcoming August software update that should enable support for storing videos on smart storage. Nextbit has promised the update will also bring the latest security patches, and improved thermal tuning for keeping the Nexbit Robin smartphone cooler during multitasking. The company has also promised an Android N update sometime in the fourth quarter, and it is expected to bring along improvements to significantly boost battery life alongside all the new features.

It features a 5.2-inch full-HD (1080x1920 pixels) display, a Qualcomm hexa-core Snapdragon 808 processor coupled with 3GB of RAM, and 32GB of inbuilt storage which is non-expandable. The Nextbit Robin comes with 100GB of free cloud storage space.
Other features of the Nextbit Robin include a 13-megapixel rear camera, a 5-megapixel front-facing camera, a 2680mAh battery, a USB Type-C charging port, and runs on Android 6.0 Marshmallow.
