Good display
Excellent battery life
MicroSD support
Raw Android 4.4 operating system
Great sound
It took a few years
But Motorola has finally left its “edgy” Batman-esque designs and needless Kevlar coating behind. It was needlessly macho
And more than a bit ugly. Like the Moto G and Moto X before it however
The Moto E is a handsome phone
If nothing more
With smooth lines and an uncluttered front face
With a colourful 4.3-inch screen (bigger than an iPhone’s). It’s reminiscent of Palm’
Un-skinned Android 4.4.2 Kitkat

The editors didn't like
No flash or front camera
Non
Removable battery
Terrible internal storage
Battery life
Camera
Horrible sound quality
Heavy body
No front camera
Charger not included(!)
Iffy camera
Not made for games
No 4G
Like its predecessor
Camera quality disappoints. The processor also occasionally struggles to keep up with more hardware-intensive tasks
Like gaming
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
Underwhelming camera
Lower powered than we'd like
Disappointing main camera
Screen's great but not HD
Tiny internal storage. Occasionally feels a little slow. No 4G. Average rear camera and no frontfacer
Poor camera
Low-spec CPU
Low internal storage
Camera is average
Only 8GB of storage
No front-facing camera
Terrible rear camera
Slow performance/loading at times
Limited internal storage
No 4G connectivity
Motorola’s had to keep the Moto E lean to keep the price down
And that means a few compromises
Though they’re not also surprises. For starters
There’s only 4GB of storage on board
Leaving a pretty measly amount of space for apps after the Android OS install - it’s not a huge problem since you can store apps on your SD card
But you may find yourself moving apps over in the settings more than
Screen is lacking compared to the Moto G
Performance can stutter
Limited storage
Low-end CPU
No 4G LTE
4GB of internal storage is not enough
Crappy rear cam
No front cam
Screen has poor viewing angles
Battery cover rattles
No NFC
Low memory storage
Camera is not great
Poor 5MP rearfacing camera and no frontfacing selfie snapper
Abstract: While everybody is all praise for Moto E for valid reasons, I prefer to look at things from a different lens. Not all buyers have similar needs and not one size fits all. Moto E is a wonderful offering by Motorola and I love the fact that they have launch...
Abstract: Moto G stormed so many markets and was out of stock within an hour in most of them. Then came the Moto X to these places where the Moto G was released first, and the result was the same. Motorola has made another phone, a much slower and smaller version o...
Extremely affordable, Best build quality and aesthetics on an entry-level device, Guaranteed Android OS updates, Surprisingly decent smartphone performance, Superb display quality, Good cell reception and call quality
Paltry internal storage, No auto focus in camera, Low video recording resolution
The Moto E is the best entry-level Android smartphone that fears no challenges in its competition and will finally put feature phones to its resting ground...

DualSIM, Small but brilliant display, microSD card support
Basic camera with no flash, Nonremovable battery, No frontfacing camer
Out of the many budget smartphones available today, the Motorola Moto E is easily one of the best. It may have had a few compromises here and there but with a price tag under RM400, we won't complain as the Moto E does all the essentials well and should ...

Precio, Buena construcción
Sin cámara delantera
La impresión tras el manejo de este teléfono ha sido más que grata. A pesar de un diseño muy sobrio y la falta de una cámara frontal, el Moto E demostró fluidez y un rendimiento que otros no pueden por ese precio. Las actualizaciones de este teléfono e...
