Moto E and Moto G with 4G unveiled
Commenting on the launch of the new Moto E and Moto G with 4G, Rob Kerr, tech expert at Uswitch.com, says: “A decent handset with a price tag of under £90 is certainly going to be an attractive proposition for first-time smartphone buyers. The Moto E puts the latest KitKat version of Android into the hands of those on even the lowest budgets.
“However, the Moto E is no replacement for the very affordable, yet powerful, Moto G from last year – which simply has superior specs to the E.
“And the popularity of the 4.3-inch, 256ppi, dual-core, customisable, Moto E is likely to be overshadowed by a new Moto G version, announced today, with fast 4G network access, for quick web browsing and downloading.
“4G held back the first generation Moto G from being a top phone, but now all the boxes are ticked, and it costs £149 – just £14 higher than the previous iteration. With data now top priority for many mobile buyers, this is a smart move.
“The 4G Moto G will now be a challenger to the likes of the EE-branded Kestrel Android phone, with its £99 price tag, as it’s set to be available across multiple networks, and not just confined to EE.
“It’s clear Moto is getting its ducks in a row as it moves away from Google, to new owners Lenovo, which has bold ambitions to target the 70 per cent of the world’s population still using feature phones. Nothing wrong with aiming high!”
