Motorola Moto E 4G (2nd Gen)

The Moto E 4G (2nd Gen) is a 4G-enabled version of the highly popular and successful Moto E (2nd Gen), packing the same high-quality experience in an affordable package while adding faster internet connectivity to the mix.

The phone is powered by a quad-core Snapdragon 410 processor with four processing cores clocked at 1.2GHz. The RAM is the same at 1GB as the Moto E (2nd Gen) and should be enough for general multitasking purposes and for keeping performance stable with a couple of apps running in the background. The display is a 4.5-inch IPS LCD unit with a resolution of 960x540 pixels, with Corning Gorilla Glass 3 on top for protection against scratches and regular wear and tear.

The Moto E 4G offers a 5-megapixel rear camera on the back for primary image and video capture. It's not as high-resolution as other devices in the same segment, but it should serve most users well for regular photography. The front camera is a VGA sensor for selfies and video calls, and the phone comes with 8GB of internal storage for apps and media and also offers expandable storage should a user need more space.

The device is fuelled by a 2,390mAh battery under the hood, which is large enough to provide all-day battery life on a phone with such hardware. Android 5.0 Lollipop runs the show on the software front for an advanced and flexible user experience. It comes with all the popular Google services pre-loaded, has an extremely populated app store, and is overall one of the best smartphone operating systems around.

Connectivity is taken care of by support for all the regular standards. There's 4G LTE for quick access to the internet, so that you can browse, download files and do everything you would do online at blazing fast speeds. The phone also supports Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, 3G, GPS, and a microUSB port. It comes in the usual white and black colours, and is overall an even better and improved variant of the already great Moto E (2nd Gen).
