    Very good phone that beats phones < $150.

    This phone works surprisingly well for being on $40. I had tried a new Moto G (2015) and wasn't too impressed for the $180 price tag. This phone performs very similar. Build quality will suffer slightly but actually this phone is still very well built for being $40. Build quality is on par with some other $100 phones. Very impressed!

    Marshmallow!

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

    So Android Marshmallow is not officially supported on this device, but it is officially supported by Cyanogenmod and very easy to flash on this phone. This is a fantastic phone if you're willing to tinker with it. The only things that aren't great are the camera and the smaller battery. If you can live without amazing battery life and don't rely on your phone as your main camera, this is quite a decent phone for the price.

    I like this phone as a spare - I wouldn't use it as my main phone because it's a bit thick and the screen isn't as crisp as I would like. The phone is responsive however and I haven't really come across too many apps or games that won't work with it. (It will not work with Pokemon Go).

    Great for everything except being a PHONE!

    Iv'e been with Boost for years, and I've had other phones on their plan that worked quite well (despite the spotty coverage areas). Three weeks ago I purchased this new Moto E at my local Best Buy. I enjoyed the new features and the faster (for Boost) internet speeds. Most of my communication is by text and email, but after a few days and several phone calls, I noticed that numerous people were telling me that I was "breaking up" and "going in and out". They also described the sound as garbled and muffled. Sometimes they couldn't hear me at all and simply hung up. Note: I do not have a cover on this phone. It was never dropped or gotten wet. I'm not holding my hand over the mic. There seems to be no rhyme or reason for the lousy transmission and lack of clarity. It doesn't matter where I am, who I'm talking to, what distance I am from the recipient caller or what the atmospheric condition is. As far as the sound quality that I'm getting from others, I find it to be somewhat cheap and "boxy". I've had $30 Net 10 flip phones in the past that blew this thing away in terms of call clarity. I'm not claiming that all new Boost Moto E's are problematic, but my personal experience with this particular item has been extremely disappointing. Hopefully Best Buy will allow an exchange for a different model. After all, what if you had to make a 9-1-1 call and the operator couldn't hear you? Not worth the risk, in my book. This phone is either going back to Best Buy or into the trash.

    This thing is raising the bar for budget phones. The Motorola Moto E is proof that a cheap phone can be good, too. You're getting reasonable performance, a sharp display and 4G LTE connectivity! HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE! The Moto E has enough of the right mix to make it a fantastic option for a tight budget! THANK YOU BEST BUY!

    Great Phone at Amazingly Low Price

    Purchased this phone at extremely low price and activated it at Ringplus without any problem (you may not be able to do it now). Cell signal is extremely well and much better than the LG phones I have. It supports much frequency bands than LG's phone. I highly recommend it.

    Major fail with speaker

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

    The phone was good for about 2-3 days. The features were good and it worked fine. The access panel for the SD card was hard to get to. The speaker on the phone failed after the 2nd or 3rd day. Could not hear the phone ring and unable to hear any activity on the phone. Tried to trouble shoot and found out this was a known issue. This could have been a good phone and I am surprised that Motorola would not do more to address this issue. Had to return the phone.

    not a good phone

    After having this phone for about a month, i feel that im qualified to leave a review... this is easily one of the worst phones ive used... ive worked at verizon and att as well as managing my own kiosk so ive used a variety of phones... to start... its slow...unbearably slow at times to which ill get the message that the app isnt responding only for it to load afterwards... this is with very few apps running on the phone. the camera is just not good and has no flash... im also treated to daily restarts, sometimes multiple restarts within the day while the phone is just SITTING there, not even in use! I could go on more, but i would never recommend this phone to anyone and plan to get something else immediately

    I bought this not intending to use it much and was surprised at the quality of it. It's not the fastest or the prettiest, but it's a lot more responsive and functional than I expected. A very good deal for the price.
