A 5MP fixed-focus camera with no flash, no stabilization, no front-facing selfie-shooting counterpart, and no fancy features to speak of. Yes indeed, the Moto E camera is about as bare-bones as it gets. On Motorola’s specs page for the Moto E, where even the most minor features are called out in elaborate detail, the optics section is laughably spartan: Of course, such is life on the low end of the smartphone spectrum. We already have some guidance that’s helped set our ...

“Built to last, priced for all.” That’s the motto behind Motorola’s latest smartphone designed for developing markets, and we’re in NYC to bring you a first hands-on. As you can see in the video below, the family resemblance here is strong: the Moto E is physically very similar to the flagship-level Moto X and its more-affordable cousin, the Motorola Moto E hands-on & hardware tour (Video) appeared first on Pocketnow.
This morning has already brought us Motorola’s latest smartphone, the stupid-cheap Moto E, as well as a new LTE edition of the already crazy-affordable Moto G. Sure, we didn’t see any Moto 360 action, but considering what else we got it hardly seems worthwhile complaining. Hardware: covered. But as it turns out that’s only one component of Motorola’s news for us today, and we’re also learning about some new software ...

After many leaks over the previous few days, and even an Indian unveiling just hours ago, Motorola has finally unveiled the Moto E to the masses. Its budget smartphone, coming in at £89, has already seen its specs confirmed. We now have a #GoodbyeDumbPhone web site hosted by Motorola, telling us “Life before mobile apps should be a thing of the past, and ...

Despite the fact that we still don’t have an official press release from Motorola for their budget Moto E device, news is starting to trickle in by way of other sources. Indian retailer Flipkart, which has been working closely with Motorola’s India sector, has made available specifications and the price of the device, at least for the Indian market. The price listed by the retailer is 6999 rupees, which translates to roughly $117.14 USD. We will have to see about U.S. pricing when we ...

A little bit prematurely, Motorola has put out a promo video outing their Moto E budget device. Though we still do not know specs or price (we will be sure to bring that to you when the information becomes available to us), this is the Moto E — it’s official. In the video, Motorola notes a “sharp scratch-resistant display,” a “water-resistant splash guard,” a battery lasting all-day (we’re assuming 24 hours, similar to the Moto X), and the latest version of Android (4.4.2) with guaranteed updates in the future. The device also comes with Moto ...

Motorola’s London launch event is just a day away at this point, where the company’s confirmed plans to introduce us to its next smartphone. Almost assuredly, that device is going to be the Moto E we’ve been seeing so very much of lately. Yeah, we might also get some Moto 360 goodness, but if you’re looking for the sure bet, the Moto E’s the way to go. While there are quite a few ...

Though Motorola’s Moto G has already been regarded as quite cheap when compared to most flagship phones out there, Motorola is not quite finished with their cost-cutting party. They are expected to announce a cheaper alternative to the G, the Moto E, at an event in London on May 13, and we have finally started seeing leaks of the design of the device. The first source shows the alleged Moto E to the right of the Moto G — we see that ...

You know those weeks where you’re like, “hey – what if we didn’t have a weekly podcast eating up half a day in production time? Can you imagine the kind of boost our review coverage could get from that time?” Yeah, us either. Because this is the Pocketnow Weekly, and we’re not breaking our perfect streak a month before our hundredth episode. This is podcasting, Jack. Serious business. We’ve even got us an EXPLICIT tag to prove it. We ain’t playin’ around. In this week’s installment of the world’s most meandering tech ...

Next Tuesday Motorola’s got a London event where it’s promised to introduce its next smartphone. We’ve talked about a couple possible contenders for that spot, but one of the most likely candidates has got to be the Moto E. We’ve heard rumors about the phone being very slim and very affordable, and earlier this week looked at some ...

We’ve got one week to go until May 13, the date Motorola’s told us to expect news of its next smartphone – that much, it’s been kind enough to confirm. But even knowing that a new phone is on the menu, we’re still at a bit of a loss for understanding exactly what device Motorola’s coming forward with – and there are a handful of possible candidates in the running. One of the strongest contenders, though, has been the phone we’ve heard ...

Nimble hops between short subjects, or longform plumbing of deep depths? We don’t like to make you choose with our podcast, so we occasionally hop across formats between episodes. This here is one of the deeper variety. This week’s special guest is Myriam Joire (aka tnkgrl), Engadget alum and current product evangelist at Pebble. She brings her considerable expertise in optics and audio to a discussion ranging from the best high-end headphones ...

With evidence pointing to a new Motorola Android on the horizon, we’ve been actively speculating about what might be next for the company. Reports of several different models have been floating around, from a seemingly high-end model with a 5.2-inch 1080p screen, to an LTE version of the Moto G, or even a very thin ...
