The editors liked
Low price
Nice build
Decent screen and power
The Moto E runs (basically) stock Android
So it'll be updated pretty quickly
Battery life that lasts all day
And then some more
A good size for the average hand
The new Motorola Moto E is proof that a cheap phone can be good
Too
You're getting reasonable performance
A sharp display and LTE connectivity for $150
Unlocked
Solid battery life
With close to two days
Comfortable design
Two SIMs
If that sort of thing works for you
Pretty stock version of Android
And one of the most up-to-date iterations at that
Unlocked budget phone
MicroSD storage will be useful for ex
Dual-SIM
Inexpensive smartphone
Light Android 4.4 overlay
Expandable memory
DualSIM
Great camera for the price
Good 4.3inch screen with responsive touch panel
The editors didn't like
No flash or front camera
Nonremovable battery
Terrible internal storage
There's no 4G here
But frankly
What did you expect?
Qualcomm's Snapdragon 200 is slow compared to what's in most other phones
And you notice it
The camera is pretty poor
Hardware
Like its predecessor
Camera quality disappoints. The processor also occasionally struggles to keep up with more hardware-intensive tasks
The new Motorola Moto E is proof that a cheap phone can be good, too; you're getting reasonable performance, a sharp display and LTE connectivity for $150, unlocked
Like its predecessor, camera quality disappoints. The processor also occasionally struggles to keep up with more hardware-intensive tasks, like gaming
The Moto E delivers in enough of the right areas to make it a fantastic option for a tight budget....

Abstract: With the $179 Android 4.4 Moto E, what you don't get is higher-end features like 4G or dual-band Wi-Fi, and some hardware features are meagre (4GB of storage) or have been left out entirely (no front-facing camera). What that does leave, though, is a lot ...

DualSIM, Great camera for the price, Good 4.3inch screen with responsive touch panel, Solid battery life
Poor earpiece speaker impacts call quality, No camera flash, Screen hard to read on an angle, Not 4G
For its price, there are few better Android smartphone available. Motorola is economical in its design decisions, but the end result doesn't feel hamstrung by cheap components and poor performance -- in fact it is quite the opposite. Tagged: Motorol...
Solid battery life, with close to two days; Comfortable design; Two SIMs, if that sort of thing works for you; Pretty stock version of Android, and one of the most up-to-date iterations at that; Unlocked budget phone; MicroSD storage will be useful for ex
The rear camera is not good. not by a long shot; No flash on the rear camera; No front-facing camera; 3G speeds aren't great; Performance can be a bit hit and miss;
Motorola's attempt to take on the budget market is an interesting product, culminating in a handset that you'd be happy to own provided you weren't dependent on the lacklustre camera and lack of 4G.Without these two aspects, the Moto E flies in, providing...

Abstract: Motorola continues to play in the budget/low cost space with the extremely affordable Motorola Moto E. But is it money well spent?Budget phones are, by their nature, an exercise in compromises.You're not paying top dollar for top-end performance. You're p...

Motorola market the Moto E as Made to Last, and Priced for All. These are broad claims, and they're met by the Moto E.At $179, it's very affordable. Considering that there's not much available for less than this, and what is available in that range is mos...
Motorola's Moto E is a smartphone shaved down to the basics, but all of the basics have been done properly. This isn't the fastest or flashiest smartphone around, but it certainly has a whole lot of mobile smarts for its $179 price...
I've used the word ‘simple' a lot in this review, and in every instance I mean it in a positive context. If I were to expand ‘simple' to a few more words, it would be ‘modest, but sufficient'. Apart from the mediocre rear camera, there is nothing about th...
Abstract: Motorola's recently reviewed X smartphone might be tackling the mid-range, but the entry level market has space for Moto to take over, and a new device from the company looks squarely aimed at people who don't want to spend too much.Announced overseas and...
No flash or front camera, Nonremovable battery, Terrible internal storage
It appears that Motorola has done it again. It's created a desirable smartphone with an impressively low price tag and a decent set of specs. There are a few more concessions to be had on the Moto E over the Moto G, with no front camera, no rear flash an...
