Terrible phone.
Yes it's cheap, but it doesn't even handle basic tasks such as outlook email and web browsing without stuttering and lagging.
It's not underpowered: it's a reasonable CPU and 2GB isn't that bad. I think there's something critically wrong with its software memory tuning - even though it's 2GB, it was showing as generally only using 1.2GB, closing too many tasks that should really stay open, and forcing loads of re-loading of apps.
Heaven help you if you accidentally press the "google assistant" button, because that freezes everything for 30 seconds while it loads.
And forget any animated games, because background apps needing to reload make everything stutter *all the time*.
I returned mine after one week and got a more expensive phone (only slightly) that actually works.

This has got to be the worst mobile ever. It's design leaves it difficult to hold without turning on help window, it switches pages when you move it to other sites you don't want, it doesn't stop when you come out of a site so you can still hear the video, it's so sliw

Keith Tait, 19 Jan 2022I think its amazing
I had to update Android 10 and upgrade... moreWorst phone I ever bought is e7. I lose stuff easily. I have to re- insert the San Disk all the time. Phone freezes easily. So one cannot answer calls. After calls very difficult to end calls. All info older than 30 days are lost automatically. Very robust though. When it falls you pick it up without any problems.
I bought this phone from Enfield Ponders End branch of Tesco. They cannot help me repair it. I will go back to my old Samsung. The Moto e7 is barely 10 months old. It is no good. I won't advice anyone to go for a Motorola phone. Worst phone I ever bought. Benjamin.

Sorry to say, this cell phone 'Moto E7' has been the worst cell phone I have ever had since cell phones have emerged.
In fact, it has come instances where I just want to smash the phone to a wall due to its malfunctions.
The phone gets stuck if freezes and I have to wait long minutes to have it back to normal.
Can you imagine, in an emergency where you can't even answer a call because the damns thing is frozed? I have got rid of this cell cause I do not have another but as soon as I get another, I'll make this #$$#$@? phone dust.

After owning an E6 plus (accidently cooked so needed replacing before its time!), I was confident that an E7 would be a good replacement choice. But no, as already noted by Skywalker - no inertial sensor > no compass > no starfinder (and orienteering).
On to of which it is can be very sluggish and unresponsive.

I can't understand why sound quality of most android mobiles is not quoted by gsm arena,also manufacturers always ignore to provide Good and excllent sound quality,actullay mobile is required for communation,in spite providing more mega pixel camera they should give attention to excllent sound quality with stereo speakers

I do not know why some people hate this phoneI'm satisfied with this phone, it has a great camera for the priceIt has a strong processor. The only problem is that it lags behind Android ElevenBut it is an economical phone.

What? No magnetic/inertial sensor. Therefore no compass, No starfinder or tracker! May have to return this to the shop. Thought these features would be standard nowadays. They are in my previous phones (similar price points) outwith even asking.

well, see a lot of complains about the moto E7, but don't think it's that bad, have no problems with the 4g,and talking,of course the camera is not as a expensive smartphone, but using it right,then you can actually take some nice photos, and SD card function can also do, it's s cheap phone, but have seen worse....
maybe you should find out how the phone really works, and keep in mind that it's not a flagship... the FM radio works fine where I live... and seen to the price, it's not that bad at all. have a good day 👌

It's an awful phone. I have owned many "budget phones", like the G7 Play (which is a great phone), and this is easily the worst so far. Admittedly I bought it cause I heard "G" instead of "E", and I don't know what I was expecting from the price, but jeez this isn't even worth the cheap price.
1) I made the mistake of getting the 2gb RAM version and it's impossibly slow, I didn't even know phones could be this slow. I can't listen to Spotify most of the time because it takes like 10 minutes to load my albums and by then I'm probably listening to somehing else. Youtube freezes in the middle of videos not because it's buffering, the CPU just can't take videos above 480p.
2) Whenever I exercise and my hands are a bit sweaty this screen goes mad and starts clicking itself all over. I have to clean the screen every 3 seconds and it's incredibly annoying. It's not that the screen is soaked it's just a little bit of conductive sweat and this phone goes crazy. I hadn't had this happen since like 2015 and I'm not sure what type of screen specifically causes this but it's definitely the cheap type.
3) Maybe a small thing but it's got a button on the side that I thought was for the camera (which would maybe be a nice idea) but no, it's for the google assistant. I don't know who thought making a physical button for the assistant was a good idea when every phone just uses the onscreen home button for it but I keep clicking it on accident and getting interrupted in whatever I'm doing. It takes like 10 seconds for the thing to open though so I can't even close it quickly I have to be patient.
Why don't you just make the phone small if you want to be cheap?? I get that cheap phones have to exist but no one needs a slow slab of glass. I don't care if the screen goes (almost) all the way I can't even watch anything on it.
If there's anything good to say it's that the camera is pretty ok for the price and it is very cheap I guess... so if you're wanting cheap slab and you only want to download whatsapp on it this is the one! (Buy the G series it's a thousand times better at just a bit more money)

The moto e7 is the worst Motorola phone I've owned. After several moto g phones (most recently G8plus) the e7 is terrible.
Why? Touching the screen when web browsing is a lottery. I keep reading the article above and below because it's so inaccurate about where you touch the screen. And it's soooo slooow. It takes forever to navigate. And frequently it freezes when receiving calls, so I can't answer, because none of the buttons work, and the screen is black. And same thing hanging up at the end of a call. Sometimes it takes more than a minute for the phone to respond to anything at the end of a call.
I thought the G8plus was a fantastic phone, which I would have bought again if still available (and scored 9/10 or higher), but the moto e7......scores 3/10.
I'll still buy moto in the future, but I'll be a lot more sceptical.

George, 17 Jan 2021A very disappointing product. I was delighted with my old M... moreYou should have chosen the G9 play. Miles better than this one and yes, the true successor of your G7 Play as the name suggests!
This phone is lower end range so it´s best avoided only for calls and few chats on whatsapp. That salesman simply coned you.
I always say to people, sometimes it´s better to spend extra cash and buy something more suitable even if you don´t need rather than a just ok product.

Moto E7 Power I paid 8k in 2021 with a 270 ppi.
I have lots of reasons to complain if I compare the phones and ignore the price too.
It's like buying a Tata Safari and comparing it with a Ashton Martin.
