The Moto E is the cheapest Android KitKat powered smartphone in the Indian market. The Moto E has a qHD 4.3 inch display (960x540 pixels at 256 ppi) and a curved back. It is powered by a dual-core 1.2GHz processor (Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 A7), 1GB RAM, Android KitKat 4.4 with guaranteed update to next Android version. The device has an Adreno 302 400 MHz single core graphics card. With a 1,980 mAh battery, the dual-SIM device has a 5MP rear camera.
The handset, which has been simultaneously launched in the UK, competes directly with handsets from homegrown players like Micromax, Xolo and Karbonn in India.
With the Moto E, Motorola lowers its price bar even further and the phone is expected to give stiff competition to the Indian brands that thrive in the budget Android smartphone segment. Recently HTC has also launched the Desire 210 in India at Rs 8,700.
