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

Comfortable design
Two SIMs
If that sort of thing works for you
Pretty stock version of Android

Dual-SIM
Inexpensive smartphone

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

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
Abstract: We're big fans of Motorola's strategy for cheap Android phones. Pair plain Google Android with the bare essential hardware necessary for a smartphone today and sell it for a competitive price. The new Moto E improves on the original, and here was compare ...
Stock Android, Great build quality, Expandable storage
Poor camera, low-spec CPU, Low internal storage
The Moto G completely redefined the concept of the budget smartphone , providing an experience that most people would have happily paid twice or maybe three times as much for. The Moto E is even cheaper, but in order to shave some cash off the RRP, Moto...

Abstract: At just £90 SIM-free, the Moto E is much more affordable than both the first and second generation Moto Gs, and the fact that it will also be getting a prompt upgrade to Android Lollipop once it's released makes it far better value than any other £90 smar...

Abstract: Kids don't tend to buy their own phones, or if they do they apply for a loan from the bank of Mum&Dad. So kids phones shouldn't cost a fortune, but they should be able to perform all the functions that they need. Here are a few to think about.For an out...
Good design and excellent build quality. Bright, good quality screen. Unmodified Android, plus futureproof for at least one major upgrade
Tiny internal storage. Occasionally feels a little slow. No 4G. Average rear camera and no frontfacer
Best in the sub-£100 class, the Moto E proves a smartphone can be both cheap and desirable. The E isn’t the thinnest and lightest; it doesn’t have the biggest screen, the most memory or the fastest processor. But it is incredibly affordable, has a good s...
Below average overall, but not bad for the money. We began this review by wondering what a phone designer would do if they had to make a good phone for under $130. It's hard to imagine a better response than the Moto E. It's a phone that, by necessity...
Abstract: As the best budget smartphones in the Windows and Android camps, we compare the Motorola Moto E and Nokia Lumia 530 spec for spec to see whether your money is better spent with Microsoft or Motorola. Read our Nokia Lumia 530 vs Motorola Moto E comparison ...
