Motorola Moto E3 announced; to come with 5-inch HD display

Lenovo, the company that now owns Motorola Mobility for all intends and purposes finally took the wraps off the ultra-affordable Moto E third-generation, or simply Moto E3 on Thursday.

On the specifications front, the Moto E flaunts a 5-inch 720p IPS panel stepping up from 4.5-inches and sports “built-in smudge-resistant screen protector” which we thing is basically a marketing lingo for not including a Gorilla Glass layer.

The fact that Motorola has just announced the launch of this device in the near future, has given as a very little information on what hardware we can exactly expect from this phone.

Long live the Moto E! Motorola has put a 16-megapixel camera into this model, with a fast f/2.0 aperture, laser auto-focus and dual-LED flash.

The Moto E3 is powered by a quad-core processor now and the main camera has been bumped up to 8 megapixels. The brand has also been able to gather much critical acclaim by launching certain devices that a really good on looks. With the accidental announcement of Moto G 3rd generation, the speculation of Moto E3 started to get a hype until recently, when Motorola family unleashed their new product boarding on India’s largest online shopping portal. Motorola does not say how much built-in storage the Moto E3 will have, but it is fair to assume that it will be 16GB at most.

What do you think of the Moto E3 and the Moto G4 Play? Interestingly enough both phones will also play nicely across all of the major USA carriers, meaning that you can use it with AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, or Sprint. The Moto E3 has been announced at a price of 99 Pounds Sterling that equates to around Rs 8,400 approximately. The device will also have a 2,800 mAh battery, 8MP rear camera and 5MP front camera, and will come with Android 6.0 Marshmallow.

The Moto E3 will be available in the United Kingdom from Amazon, Tesco, Argos and O2 in early September with a price tag of £100 ($133).
