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
Solid, sturdy build and ergonomic design, Waterrepellant nanocoating and Gorilla Glass 3 protection, Sharp, highres screen, Supports 3G on both slots, Android KitKat, Smooth performance, Good battery life
No front camera for video calls, Fixedfocus primary camera, Paltry internal storage
It takes a lot to stand out in the budget segment – choices are many but most of them compromise on build quality, core specs and screen resolutions, and run older versions of Android. The Moto E scores on all of these aspects, especially build and screen...

The Moto E is cheap, comes with the latest Android KitKat software and has a screen and processor capable of tackling the essentials
Its camera and battery life don't impress and it isn't much less than the Moto G, which remains the best Android bargain around
The Motorola Moto E is unquestionably cheap and has a set of specs that makes it more than capable of handling your basic everyday tasks. Its price, however, isn't much lower than the Moto G, which has a better camera, more powerful processor, improved s...

Incredible performance, Colourful screen, Sturdy, smart design, Good battery life
Camera is a weak point, Moto G is almost as cheap
Right, it's time to be annoyingly contradictory.Do we love the Motorola Moto E? Yes, we do. It's a great performer for the price, with a colourful screen, fun design, and plenty of great features that make it easy to set up and use.Would we recommend it...

Value never before seen, Durable, waterresistant hardware, Outstanding reception with solid speaker performance in all audio modes, Good endurance
Slow, very inconsistent software, Bad camera, MicroSD requirement impacts affordability
Between the software stumbles, the storage shortage, and the camera, you might think the Moto E a pretty wimpy contender. Frankly, we're not confident that it'll age well; consistent updates aside, smartphones usually slow down over time, and performance...
Abstract: The Moto E from Motorola is one of those devices that shouldn't exist, not because it sucks. But rather to the fact that someone has finally made a worth while budget Android smartphone; and its not gimped. The Moto E retails for $129 without a contract a...
Abstract: Motorola stirred up the smartphone market last year with its Moto G handset, which launched at £135 and quickly became Motorola's best-selling phone ever. The Moto G has been a genuinely disruptive product — readers of handset reviews will be familiar wit...

battery life
CPU, GPU, Wi-Fi, and cellular performance is good enough for the price, but objectively mediocre, MicroSD support is an improvement over stock Android but inelegant compared to Windows Phone, Who knows what's going to happen to Motorola once the Lenovo sa
It’s not perfect, but it doesn’t have to be – mainly because the Moto E is most impressive for its rich value. Value, it’s something that’s prized to the folks who don’t want to shell out a ton of money to experience the advantages of a smartphone. Don...
Great build quality and display for the price. Clean, up-to-date version of Android. Memory card slot.
No LTE. Poor camera. Can be sluggish at times. Low internal storage
Motorola puts feature phones on notice with the affordable, unlocked Moto E, making a modern Android smartphone experience more accessible than ever....
