    I guess you get what you pay for but this phone just really wasn’t that great for me. I thought being an unlocked phone it wouldn’t come with Unnecessary apps in operating system

    BestBuy service is excellent. Fast shipping, great support. Regretfully, The MotoE4 is not a good phone. Is great looking and light. But is slow, shuts apps by itself, videos lag and quality of call is not very good. Very disappointing.

      Hi VCR450. Thanks for bringing this up to our attention. We like to help. Can we try to put the phone in Safe Mode? Safe mode starts the device without any third party apps running. To boot into Safe mode, press the physical power key, touch and hold Power off, touch OK when Reboot to Safe mode appears. Let us know if the issue remains even when in Safe Mode by sending us your feedback to [email protected]. Please include your issue as well so we have the reference. -Jhei MotorolaMobility

    There is loss of internet while operating on this phone. Speakers are not loud enough to hear the sound. Overall phone rating is average and can be used for a short period of time.

      Hi nitpan. Thanks for giving us your feedback. We like to help. Run a diagnostic on Device Help App > Fix > Hardware Test. If some of the tests fail, we could also put the phone in Safe Mode. Safe mode starts the device without any third party apps running. To boot into Safe mode, press the physical power key, touch and hold Power off, touch OK when Reboot to Safe mode appears. Let us know the result by sending us your issue and how it goes to [email protected]. -Jhei MotorolaMobility

    Excellent Value With All The Features I Need

    It's amazing what you can get for $130 these days. I will preface this by saying that I'm an IT Pro in my early 50's. I understand the technology. I've used iPhone's and most recently the Moto G 3rd Gen and Moto G4 Play. I'm a big fan the Motorola line. I'm very happy with my purchase of the Moto E4. This performs as well as the Moto G4 Play and has the awesome fingerprint reader I needed. I can't say enough about the fingerprint reader. It's fast and accurate. The battery life seems better than the G4 Play, and it charges much quicker. I'm not a gamer or video chatter. I use very few apps and only occasionally watch video on a phone. The MLB At Bat Live Video looks good on this phone. I will never need a $800+ flagship phone for performance or status. I just want a phone that can handle email, texts, a few phone calls, GPS and a few other apps. This phone does the trick. No need to spend hundreds when you can get all the basics in a nice package for so much less. Shipped with Android Nougat 7.1.1. I hold hope that Motorola will update this model in the future. Thanks Motorola for continuing to produce outstanding devices at a great price.

    I wouldn't buy or give this phone to my worst enemy. If I did buy my worst enemy a phone, I would get them a string and two cups because it would work better than the Moto E4.

    I have had this phone for several months now and Im buying another one for my wife now. You simply cant ask more for the price, good camera, great battery life, fast processor for regular use. Lacks customization, but I guess most people wont mind that.

      Hi Pablo,

      Thanks for your feedback! We appreciate you have one of our phones. The phone is a stock Android phone which makes it very easy to use and can be customized with your desired apps and other stuff.

    I purchased this phone a few weeks ago, and yes at a time when Moto was almost launching the E5. This is a great purchase and people would be surprised to know that E4 sports a newer version of Nougat wen compared to the costlier G5 Plus (sounds counter intuitive). but the bottom line is, at it's price point this device gives you more than you ask for.

    Network settings are impossible

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Have to keep turning phone on and off to stay on Network, it constantly says I am away from my home Network and I have to change to cdma mode and vice versa. No wifi calling, device memory settings are not modifiable. Too difficult to set up group text messaging. Calls do not come through. This is the second unlocked Moto device I will return. The first one was the g series and I had similar problems. I am better off with an old Galaxy S5 loner. Seriously, the specs are better. All this on Verizon network. Last phone was an unlocked s7 that does fine. Battery life is the only thing I like. The charge is slow though, especially with any cheer that did not come out of the box.

      Hi Elove, thanks for your report. This device should work with Verizon. It would be best to contact your carrier to check if all of their carrier services will work with this phone. You can check this link to see all of this phone's compatible carriers: https://www.motorola.com/us/carrier-compatibility - Mike MotorolaMobility

    Bought this through Best Buy,under $ 60.00.Could not keep my other phone charged and the battery was built in...This new phone has battery that can be removed if necessary...Nice clear screen,nothing about this phone that makes it run sluggish..A full charger will last 24 hours depending on your use

    Horrible P.OS.

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I bought this phone to replace my LG Tribute (which is also a horrible phone that I bought at Best Buy). This phone does not recognize when the headphones are plugged in, which has driven me crazy. This phone is also really buggy and will randomly close/open apps, and will lose network service where there should be service, I live in the city and have always had service throughout. I bought this prepaid Virgin Mobile as I've been a virgin mobile customers for almost 10 years and it seems like the phones get worse and worse with each model. The LG Tribute was also a virgin mobile phone. I'm returning this phone and may not ever get another phone or any electronic device from Best Buy again. I'm so tired of this bull.
