Specification of Motorola E3 Smartphone with Android 6.0 Marshmallow + features and price

Motorola, which is now owned by Lenovo,
has announced the entry-level Mote E3
smartphone. It brings much-needed hardware
upgrades compared to its predecessor.
Running on Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow, one
of the key highlights of the smartphone is
the 5-inch HD display, quad-core processor,
smudge-resistant screen protector and
slightly larger capacity battery.



Moto E3 Price

The Moto E3 is priced at $131 in the US (£99
in the UK), which roughly translates to Rs
8,900. At this price point the smartphone will
compete with the likes of the Samsung
Galaxy On5 Pro, Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus, Intex
Aqua View and Panasonic Eluga A2.
Interestingly, the Moto G4 Play which was
recently launched in India is priced at Rs
8,999. Moto E-series has always been the
entry-level smartphone priced around Rs
5,999, with Moto G series priced slightly
upwards of Rs 10,000. It will be interesting
to see how aggressive Motorola can get with
the pricing when it launches the Moto E3 in
India.


Moto E3 Specifications

The smartphone flaunts a slightly larger 5-
inch IPS HD (720p) display, compared to 4.5-
inch one on the Moto E (2015). It follows the
same trend as the Moto G4 and Moto G4
Plus, which comes with a 5.5-inch display
compared to 5-inch one on the predecessor,
the Moto G (2015). Under the hood, the Moto
E3 is powered by a quad-core processor.
However, there is no word on whether it is a
Qualcomm or MediaTek chipset. Also, while
details about the amount of RAM and
onboard storage are missing, the smartphone
does include a microSD card slot for further
expansion.



Moto E3 features

Motorola has also worked on the camera
chops giving the new Moto E3 the much-
needed upgrade. It now sports an 8-
megapixel rear camera compared to 5-
megapixel on the previous generation, and a
5-megapixel front-facing camera for selfies
and video calling. Armed with a 2,800mAh
battery, connectivity options on the
smartphone include Wi-Fi 802.11n, Bluetooth
4.0 LE, GPS and dual-SIM 4G LTE. The Moto
E3 also features a splash-proof body to
protect it from accidental spills. This is one
feature that had been there on the earlier
Moto G and Moto E smartphones, but was
missing from the latest Moto G4 and Moto
G4 Plus.



Moto E3 availability

The smartphone is set to go on sale in the
US sometime in September, TheVerge reports.
However, there is no word on when it will be
available in India.
