Review: Motorola Moto E
The Motorola Moto E is by no means perfect, but it is a smartphone any person could carry with pride. In exchange for top-of-the-line features, it offers solid performance at just about the lowest price possible without a contract.
The Moto E covers the basics in spades with a class-leading screen, above-average battery life, and good-enough call quality. I wish data performance were a bit speedier, but Motorola had to trim costs somewhere. The Android operating system works quite well even with the bargain-basement processor. It offers all the same tools as runs most of the same apps as the big boys, and does so in a comfortable, portable device that's a cinch to carry around and use. The biggest surprise is the camera. It takes great photos for a $130 phone. It's a shame, then, that video quality is so shabby.
Few smartphones offer the value contained in the Moto E. It may not be sexy, but it is surely the one of the best smartphones for the dollar.
