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

Excellent value for money. Comfortable design houses a decent display. Performance from the Snapdragon 200 SoC is better than expected. Stock Android leaves the bloat at home.
Fixedfocus camera is often unusable. Limited internal storage.
Over the years testing and reviewing smartphones, I haven’t used a device that retailed for under $130 at launch that was actually decent. Until I tried out the Moto E, that is. The Moto E isn’t a device suited to power users. It isn’t a device for peopl...

Motorola has rested its hat on delivering the most phone possible for the least money necessary. The company cut corners on the Moto X and focused on software, then cut even more corners with the Moto G and focused on price. With the Moto E, it's raced to...

ZOMG CHEAP! Water resistant and a damn near smashproof body. This phone is harder to kill than Steven Seagal. Great, solid handfeel. Variety of color options
Selfie hater: Lousy back side camera, and no front side camera at all. 4GB of storage is not enough to even store all my apps

Competing on price is a tough business. The race to the bottom end has seen firms like Huawei and ZTE flourish, though perhaps not in the US where Motorola at least has brand advantage. The $129 Moto E is ambitious in a similar way to the Moto G, underc...
Abstract: Motorola's latest handset, the Moto E, is in the hands of Marco Hanna. Can the cheapest handset in Motorola's lineup compare to more expensive smartphones like the Moto G, Moto X and Nexus 5?...

The Moto E almost seems like buying a phone from 2011 that is still in an unopened box. The DROID Bionic might just be the best comparison, but in terms of pure specs, it probably was a better phone since it sported a front-facing camera, had more interna...
More cannot be expected for 119 Euros. Bullseye for Lenovo (again).It seems to be so easy to sell numerous smartphones Just provide a highly capable device with decent build quality and a low price. Then again, this may not be so easy to do, as many smart...
Abstract: "At-a-glance review of Motorola's budget smartphone, the Moto E"The Moto G is a device that offers superb value for money, and has been quite a success for Motorola. With the KitKat-toting dual-SIM Moto E, the brand is now attempting to create similar rip...

Runs an almost untouched version of Android 4.4.2, The vivid screen is a pleasant surprise, Rounded design makes for comfy gripping, Incredibly affordable
Only 4GB of internal storage, Rear camera is mediocre at best, No flash or front-facing camera
There's no two ways about it -- the Moto E is exciting, if not in the way most mobile buffs would like. You really shouldn't underestimate the sort of world-shaking power that can come from making something that's both very good and very cheap. So what if...
One of the lowest prices for any smartphone, period, Sturdy construction, Good sharpness for a screen of its size, Front facing speaker, Expandable Storage
Low resolution screen won't please screen nuts, Low tier performance package doesn't back the 1 GB of RAM, microSD card required in order to install a lot of apps, Simply not made to be anything more than a communication device, Camera lacks flash, and is
7.0 The Moto E is priced at just $129, unlocked, making it one of the cheapest smartphones you can get your hands on. The closest competitor is another Motorola device itself, the Moto G, which is priced $50 higher, but gets you a better display, a faster...
