Customer Ratings & Reviews

So far, this is the best affordable unlocked smartphone I have ever purchased. This phone allows the owner to keep it secured by using a fingerprint to unlock it.

It's a good solid phone. It does all the basic things well. It's definitely not a powerhouse or a flagship. The camera is just ok, battery is ok screen is ok. I've got no complaints.

Design: This phone despite being a phone with a removable back has managed to pull a modern smartphone look. The black has a great soft feeling plastic which feels great in the hand. The front facing fingerprint reader is also a wonderful touch for a phone that is barely over $100. The water-resistant design is a nice touch, but don't go dunking it into water anytime soon. Display/Audio: Overall, the display is excellent. The screen is very colorful and bright. The screen can also get decently dark as well. The screen is only 1280 x 720, but it is hardly noticeable when watching videos. Speakers are decent. Sound is faithful except for the highest volume settings where the audio can become slightly distorted. They sound pretty good for a phone in this price range. OS/UI: It is great to have a phone out of the box with Nougat (Android version 7). Moto's phones have always had a great OS because they are near stock android. The near vanilla android experience in itself worth it. Camera: The camera is possibly one of the greater aspects of the phone. The phone in general gets the proper exposure in light situations. The phones are rarely grainy and focuses on objects quickly. As with every camera, the camera weakens slightly in the low light department. HOWEVER, the camera does outperform many smartphones even some mid ranges in this department. The phone also has great controls for manual mode if you want to get the best picture. The front facing camera is also great and performs as expected. Battery/Charging: For the most part, the battery life of the Moto E4 is just average but solid. In the age of larger battery capacities and quick-charge/fast charging, the Moto E4 is basically adequate. The phone can easily get you through a full day, most likely due to the fact due to good battery management, lower screen resolution, brightness controls, etc. The batteries are also swappable, so that might be a bonus for some. Storage/Memory: The base storage is a bit lacking at 16GB. However, it is really good to know that the storage is expandable up to 128GB which is more than enough. The nice thing about expansion is that you can use the external storage as internal memory. I think the ram is decent enough considering the price of the product. Processor/Performance: Perhaps the biggest weakness of the Moto E4 is the processor. However, I have seen worse processors being used around this price-point so that is something to consider as well. Now if you do light gaming, emails, basic web browsing searches, this phone performs excellently. Things like basic streaming such as videos and Netflix performed well. However, with heavier duty games, the games will show noticeable signs of stuttering and/or frame-rate issues. Other (Calls, Compatibility, Accessories, Firmware/Updates): Call quality was great. No issues or distortions. The wonderful thing about this phone is that it is UNLOCKED and works with GSM and CDMA so basically all the carriers. At the time of this review, there is only a decent amount of support for accessories. BE CAREFUL, the international version of this phone is different from the US version. Please lookout for this when choosing which accessories to buy. If you need some suggestions: I recommend for cases: Dretal or Otterbox and for screen protector: amFilm, Mr.Shield, or Supershield. The phone uses a standard micro-USB, so replacements are easy to find. Moto has been generally fast and reliable about updating their phones. The phone should get at least 2 years of android updates. Conclusion: This phone is not the greatest in the world. HOWEVER, it may be the greatest phone for what it does at this price-point. The phone is cheap without being cheap. In a way, this phone is truly king in the under $150 category. My suggestion is to choose based on your needs and willingness to pay. It is great to see a phone with great value at this price-point. And hey, at least it has a headphone jack.

This phone is amazing. Not only is the build quality very good, but the phone is very fast! The quad-core processor zips through menus and screens very quickly and without any noticeable lag. It is very responsive, turning on the screen as you pick it up to make sure it is ready to go before you even get your thumb in swiping position. Speaking of unlocking, the fingerprint sensor is lightning fast, and unlocks without error 100% of the time. Camera is decent, and screen is very nice and bright. Add all of that together with an unlocked device that can be used on any GSM carrier, and a sub $150 price tag? I'd like to see someone beat that combo. Definitely a recommended purchase. Also, the fine gold color looks much better in person than on the screen/website.

I’ve been eyeing this phone for a while now. I’ve done my research and learned a lot about it. At the end I’ve decided to go buy this phone and to tell you the truth I regret nothing. It’s exactly what I expected and more. It has so many features for just a phone that’s $130. I really enjoy my new phone and I really recommend this phone to anyone looking for a really good smartphone on a budget. By the way I’m using it on T-Mobile.

For anyone who had the Moto G4 Play, this is slight upgrade. It has a slightly faster processor and fingerprint reader. This comes with Nougat from factory. This phone was a breeze to bring over to Sprint. I was on Net10 and was able to port into Sprint within a few minutes. I like how the speaker is on the front of the phone. Seems like the phone will have decent battery life. If you can get the unlocked version of this phone for under $100, it is well worth it.

This phone has all the basics, plus cool extras, like a fingerprint sensor, reasonable amount of memory, and 2 cameras. Its also easy to use. The call quality, wifi, and audio volume are super loud and clear! Gone are the days when I used to struggle with poor call quality or low volume. This is an excellent buy, even if it's not on sale! Motorola is awesome!

I know this is very early to review about a smart phone which is launched in just one month. But after view the phone i loved it. i purchased it as a gift for my dads 70th Birth day. I like the phone look and feel i..e it is slim and sleek and light weight the quad core processor with 2gb ram is really sufficient for the day to day use. the camera is also good

Bought this phone for my teenage daughter. I refuse to pay hundreds of dollars for the latest and greatest. This phone is great because it is low priced but has all of the essentials covered including a decent camera. Even more important to my daughter...it looks like a current generation phone.

Value for money model to buye, great battery life and best for Sprint BYOD promotional offer :)

Love this product, unlocked and has Nougat. Battery life is good, lasts me 3 days before I need to recharge. Only problem I have is the fingerprint sensor, sometimes it won't recognize my finger but I just disable it.

Moto hits it out of the park in the value smartphone segment once again with the E4. Its size, speed, camera are equivalent to G3/4 phones from a year back for ~$75 less. Stock Android 7. Only issue is the camera; pictures are pretty grainy, especially when zoomed in. If you want a better camera, you will have to look for a higher $ phone.

Bought this for my sister since she is tough on phones. Was not dissapointed in its quality. Does not have the build, specs or camera of the g5 or z2, but is a fraction of the price. Would recommend for someone who needs a good phone, but not all the bells and whistles.

I was looking for a phone compatible with my Pageplus service so I purchased this one because of the great price for a new phone and because if it did not work I could return it to my local Bestbuy store and get my money back asap. The gold tone is beautiful and it does work with my carrier. The phone is easy to use, has a great camera, it's very light, and the size is perfect.

Motorola phone made by Lenovo, finish is good. It is fast and responsive. For little over one hundred dollars, it might the best valued smart phone around. Splash proof and comes with Android 7!.

Bought this as a temporary replacement phone and it's quite good for the price. It's plenty quick going from app to app, and the screen is decent. My only gripe is that it only comes with 16gb of storage, of which just about 8gb of that is taken up by the Android OS. You can expand it with separate SD card though.

I really like the Moto E4. The battery lasts a very long time (2 days at my usage levels), it's very smooth, the camera is pretty good, and it looks nice. The price is very reasonable for what it is. I'm sure that there are faster and fancier phones out there, but for standard smart phone usage, this works great for me.

Since the phone comes with Android 7 (Nougat) you will no longer run out of storage space for apps... If you add a memory card Android 7 can treat the memory card like original system storage so you no longer have to regularly move apps & files to the card.

Cheap and good cellphone. If you are looking a smartphone for the basic things, this is a good choice.

Definitely a nice phone. Price is fairly ok.Made a nice gift.
