Had one for a week, then I returned it. Bezels are way too big, touchscreen sensitivity is bad (I had a lot of typing errors while typing fast, some keys weren't registred no matter how hard I pressed on the screen) and the speaker quality is very bad. But the battery life is very good and the phone feels good in the hand. I bought a Lumia 640 LTE at the same price after that and I'm a lot more happy with it. I only looked for the cheap 4G phones, so both were the 4G versions (on Moto, the 4G has a more powerful SD410 chipset).

Microsoft Store also sells it at that price. I was lucky to get both AT&T's Lumia 640 and Moto E 4G for $29.99 at Best Buy. Two nice phones for $60 total that can last a couple years for me. The Moto E did go back up to $49.99 for the AT&T but the Verizon one goes for $35 and is faster to unlock using the Network app. I gave the Verizon Moto Es to relatives but decided to go AT&T Moto E because the branding isn't as ugly and it only takes three days for an unlock approval from AT&T.

                      I recently got this little moto e as a general call / text device so my galaxy note doesn't get dirty or damaged at work.

                      I don't care about camera quality or lack of other features as I've disabled all that and kept it simple.

                            AnonD-499441, 17 May 2016I own this, and I own a Lumia 640 Windows phone. The Moto E... moreYup. Same here. I got both AT&T models for $30 each. Amazing what we can get for $30 these days. There is no question the Lumia 640 is superior to it especially with camera, signal strength, and call qiality. I keep it as my #1 or #2 option while my Moto E will be a 3rd or 4th stringer.

                            The few things why I got a Moto E 2nd gen is because it is Android. I prefer my Nova Launcher Prime, TubeMate, MX Player, Quick Pic, torrent apps like Flud, SwiftKey, and so on. I love the Textra app which replaces my default text app. It isn't a totally worthless phone because I do prefer Android over WP. And I live in a city where it rains alot, so splash resistance and the small compactness of it can be very useful for me.

                            Versus Lumia 640 or even the $100 ZTE Zmax 2, I think Moto E 4G doesn't compare. But it has its virtues too like a clean Android experience, comparable battery life to Lumia, front speaker, and splash resistance. I saw the Moto G4 Play and it seems it will replace this Moto E. But the size is too tall. I already have phones with that height already. I like the 4.5 inch the Moto E brings. Just wished it was slimmer.

                              I own this, and I own a Lumia 640 Windows phone. The Moto E is a toy compared to the Lumia. The Lumia (nokia) is an amazing phone for, $29 on sale. A camera as good as Apple's, and has an led flash (Moto no flash). Impeccable call quality - for those of you who still talk on a phone. FAST !!! 5" gorgeous screen.

                              But here's why you should consider a Windows phone. It is so much faster than an Android, but MAINLY the freedom to install the apps where you want them. For example, I have only 1gb ram, but I have over 300 apps on my Windows phone, and 280+ can be installed on the sd-card. With my Moto, I'm lucky to have 50 apps because 90 % are forced to be installed in RAM. And with my Lumia 640, I still have over 500mb ram left !

                              No flash on this Moto ? Just ridiculous. Oh, the camera SUCKS. The macro is pretty much non existent. The Lumia has an incredible macro and picture quality. Even if you don't want a windows phone, steer clear of this Moto if you want a good camera, or if you like a lot of apps.

                                  Bought this 4 my wife in oct 2015 for 80€ and in Finland that was a bargain. 4G for that price was really too tempting and it ended up replacing her outdated Samsung Gio. For a basic use I'd say it is brilliant and few weeks ago got updated to Marshmallow. Memory is a bit small as she takes quite a lot of photos but adding SD-card fixed that.

                                    Just upgraded my Motorola Moto E 2nd Gen. LTE XT1524 to Android 6.0 Marshmallow and it is performing way way better than lollipop. Battery performance improved, speed and performance improved. I want Android N upgrade for this device too... it can perform and handle the next upgrade very well. Really happy and satisfied with this upgrade.

                                        i got Marshmallow last month, it solved the issue of heating up or the handset freezing up time and again.
