Moto E4 and the E4 Plus officially launched

Moto has freshly unveiled the Moto E4 and the E4 Plus with budget hardware on board. The Moto E4 Plus is the bigger variant, naturally, and comes with a massive 5,000mAh battery under the hood. 

In line with the predecessors, the standard Moto E4 is the company’s entry level smartphone, and packs the latest Android 7.1.1 operating system by default. The company is yet to offer information on future updates, although we’re not holding our breath.

One of the exciting features of the two devices is that they feature a front facing LED flash, thus ensuring that you never have to take a dimly lit selfie again. Both phones have an oleophobic coating on the display along with Corning’s Gorilla Glass 3 for added durability. The two smartphones come with fingerprint scanners as well.

The omission of the USB Type-C port is a bit surprising though. On the plus side, this means that customers with older micro USB cables won’t face compatibility issues with the device.

The company is yet to offer information on the Indian launch, but we expect the phone to reach retailer shelves fairly soon. Pricing details haven’t been shared either.

On the rear it has an 8MP sensor with f/2.2 aperture and a 5MP front facing camera. It runs on Android 7.1.1 Nougat and has a 2800 mAh battery to juice it up. The dual SIM 4G smartphone measures 144.7 x 72.3 x 9.3mm and weighs 151 grams.
