Moto E reviewBy Greg
I've only played with the phone a bit (bought it as a gift for a family member), so this isn't a comprehensive review, but here's my verdict: the touch interface is responsive, the screen resolution is acceptable, Google Maps runs well, voice search/text is on par with the latest phones, and the phone feels solidly built. I have no input on battery life or durability at this point, but I have little doubt my family member will find this to be an impressive, if not completely adequate, first smartphone. (This is a three- or four-star phone overall, and there are much better phones out there, but I think this phone deserves a five-star rating for its value for the money.)

Motorola Moto E - A Detailed Review Regarding The Many Excellent Features Of This Phone.By Daisy S
This wonderful unlocked Moto E Phone I am delighted with as for the low price that I paid, it has far surpassed my expectations in a smartphone! Since I own a HUGE five inch Samsung Galaxy Grand, this phone I find just perfect for travel and it is so easy to hold due to the curved back. For you the reader, my goal here is to give you everyday and practical uses regarding this phone.
PROS:
+ Battery Life - Simply AMAZING - the absolute best battery life of any smartphone or tablet that I have owned! Since this phone does NOT come with lots of bloatware and useless apps, this helps the memory to run better and the battery last longer! In fact, I have gotten a day and a half of battery use (I turn off WiFi when I am off the internet or email etc). However, I run my brightness at 100%. So on an average day, I get at least a full day with about 20 percent left (sometimes more) and then I charge it overnight. *The very long battery life is what sold me on this phone. Too many times in the past with phones that have too many bells and whistles, the battery ran out so quickly. However, this phone lasts me all day until I go to bed when it goes back on it's charger!
+ Built in slip proof anti slip (bumper) cover - In a sense, the slip proof cover is built into the phone and it so attractive and anti slip on the front and on the back, that I did not need to purchase an additional cover to start using the phone. However, I have my eye on a book style cover for this phone already!
The back of this phone removes you you can change the color of the back part to a different color etc.
-
+ Screen Resolution - AMAZING! The colors are vivid and the fonts, icons are very clear. Even though this is a smaller phone at 4.3 inch screen, when I view pages on the internet, the text is clear and pictures very clear and colorful!
And the screen is so clear that I can read PDF books using Adobe Reader and see the pages without my glasses!
-
+ KitKat / Pure Android Experience - Since this has the pure Android with no overlays over it, and just the essential apps installed, this is a leaner phone that uses much less memory and battery than the ones that have those overlays and are not straight Android! This means that KitKat OS runs better and faster also I have found. I know as I own two Samsung tablets with KitKat that I love, but they have bloatware on them, this phone does not).
EXTERNAL SLOT FOR EXTERNAL MICRO SD CARD - So I added a 32GB SD card. Great news is that many apps from the Playstore (the newer updated ones for KitKit) can be moved over to the External SD Card so you can save space in the internal storage area. What I did was to go into Android Assistant App and go to Tools, Apps2SD and it had a list of Apps I could move to External SD Card. There were a few apps that were either older apps (pre KitKat) or not written for the KitKit that I was not able to move, yet I moved about ½ of my apps and am saving space on my internal storage! As more and more apps update to KitKat standards, then even more can be moved. When you search for a new App in the Playstore, see if it has the KitKat approval on it, then it can be moved to the External SD card.
**(Note I placed info on how to move Apps to External SD card in the comment section).
+ WiFi Connecting/Speed of WiFi - The strongest WiFi yet of any phone that I have owned, and I really am serious! This phone has Very, very fast connect and it keeps the connect. In fact in the back of my home (the furthest from my router), I still get 4.5 bars of WiFi signal on this phone! This I tested using my home router and on the go at many hotspots with WiFi. Other hotspots: No problems at all connecting and staying connected on these. And I found the speed still high at home with several devices connected at the same time to the router, and there is no loss in speed.
+ Internet & Webpage & Video Viewing - The Chrome browser does a great job, however, I use Maxthon Browser with great internet viewing results and it renders webpages quite fast for me.
+ Office Program with the phone - Found it to be OK, but I went to the Playstore and installed Docs to Go (which lets me edit, save, view in MS Office types and also view PDF files). There is also a MS Office App (free) in the Playstore.
+ Music Player - This phone comes with Google Player installed and I like it OK. It does play music that is stored on my external SD card nicely and saves new Playlists OK (and Google Player also plays music from the Cloud). However, let me suggest Rocket Music Player (free) from the Playstore. I like it because my music is on my external SD card and it plays it in playlists or from my folders etc. I have already created my playlists on it and the sound from this player is superb!
+ Home Videos - The stock video player is OK and plays MOST home videos, however, may I suggest QQ Player (Free App from Playstore and the ONLY one I recommend as it plays every home video I tried).
+ Bluetooth Speed and Performance - The Bluetooth paired quickly with several devices and copied files at a great rate of speed.
+ Peppy and fast - Found the response on this phone to be very peppy and fast, no lagging ever!
CONS:
- The new Adobe Flash is not supported, however, I found that archived flash (which I installed) gets some online videos to play. So I downloaded the older archived flash which gives me the ability to view many internet videos (I use Maxthon Browser and have had good results, however, I could not get Amazon videos to play).
- No flash on the 5MP Camera. This is a lower end camera, I suggest that you use your regular camera for the best picture taking situations. However, to test this camera, I took several outdoor shots as well as a few indoor shots (in bright lighting) and to my amazement, the pictures looked OK, and good enough to email and keep, yet I will be taking my regular digital camera for more serious camera shots.
-
- Somewhat Low internal storage (but not a problem). The good news is that if an App has KitKat standard and it is newer updated app, then it can be move onto the External SD Card. I was able to move more than half of my installed apps so I still have 1.5GB left on my internal space!
+ No NFC and NO OTG - This phone will not work with an OTG Adapter with flash drive and other USB devices. This is not a problem as I use Dropbox for sending pictures, etc. No NFC (Near Field Communication) - I do not use this so this is not a problem for me.
Bottom line: Would I buy this Moto E phone over again? Yes, I certainly would buy this phone again because it is easy to use, SUPERB battery life, as well as simple to operate. If you are looking for a easy to use and low cost Android smartphone that has really great battery life, let me suggest this phone to you. Also, since I am a techie person, I will be happy to answer any questions you may have through the comment section.

Moto E XT1021 (Global GSM, single sim)By C Schmitt
Overall, a fantastic phone for the money. A great entry level smartphone or backup phone for trips to the beach, camping, etc. where you'd not want to risk a more expensive device. The smaller size, rugged plastic housing, and Gorilla Glass screen make it ideal for someone that is looking for a functional smartphone that can take some rough handling.
While the phone has 4GB of storage, only 2.2GB are user-accessible for loading applications and data (the remaining 1.8GB is occupied by the operating system and it's reserved storage.) The beauty of this phone is that it offers an microSD card slot, so by purchasing and installing a 32GB card (under $20) you can expand the storage to more than what more expensive phones offer.
The sdcard can be used to store photos, music, and many larger applications can be moved to the sdcard to free up the internal storage.
Cons:
No NFC support.
No front facing camera.
No flash on rear camera.
Rear camera lens is fixed-focus.
Pros:
Excellent performance, even with Battery Saver enabled.
Screen is bright and crisp; auto-brightness functions well.
Large, bright white notification LED.
Exceptional all day (almost 2 days) battery life. Edit: First full charge cycle 100% to 15% lasted 1 day 16 hours, including 5 hours of screen on time.
SD card slot for expanding storage capacity.
Decent speaker volume and sound quality.
Bootloader is easily unlocked :)
