Prior to the Lenovo takeover, Motorola had a reputation for making flagship phones at very competitive prices. Since the acquisition was finalized, Moto's high-end phones have been a bit less attractive, but the cheaper phones are still good options. Howe...

The Moto E series hit the scene in mid-2014, quick on the heels of the Moto G's success in the mid-range market. While the G series has offered solid, though intermediate, hardware at less than half the cost of high-end flagships, the E series was priced...
Very competitive pricing, Solid build quality, Excellent fingerprint sensor adds value, Capable internals handle multitasking needs with only occasional hiccups...
Camera is unpredictable and generally produces noisy images, Display lacks detail, sometimes shows a bluish tint...
At the entry-level price-point, the name of the game is value – possibly more so than any other category. In a mobile landscape where flagships regularly push the $1000 mark, the disparity in price has never been greater. Fortunately, less money doesn't a...

The Moto E4 is not the most exciting handset in the world, but it does everything well. The hardware is inexpensive without being "cheap"; the screen is bright and colorful; battery life is solid; and data/voice performance was quite good. Some people wil...

The Moto E4 is not a smartphone that will rival the “big dogs” of the Android world, like the Galaxy S8 or LG G6, and it's not supposed too. The Moto E4 is meant to be a smartphone that can be a good option for those that don't want to (or have the money...

The Moto E4 was announced only 10 days ago, yet you can already buy one today from Verizon. This is the regular E4, though, so it's not the slightly more feature-packed Plus version. Still, at $69.99, it's a pretty good starting price for a prepaid phone...

Motorola continues to provide review units of their 2017 phones. I've already reviewed the Moto Z2 Play and will soon be reviewing the Moto Z2 Force. Today, it's the entry level Moto E4. It's a cheap $130 phone ( only $100 if you can put up with Amazon ad...
It's hard for me to recommend the Moto E4. At $100 with Amazon ads its an OK value as a backup phone or for light usage. I'd struggle to use this phone day-to-day, however. It feels like a cheap phone (admittedly because it is) and is under powered. If yo...
