Motorola Moto E4 (4th Gen) Unlocked Cell Phone (5", 16GB Storage 2GB RAM) Black

Pros: Can use memory cards Replaceable battery Fingerprint reader Bright, colorful screen Android 7.1

Cons: Screen is only 720p

Overall Review: I decided to grab a budget phone this time around, it replaced a 4 year old Sony Xperia Z Ultra that just died on me and I have to say, it's pretty amazing this thing only costs $130 and this model doesn't have the ads in the lock screen either. I thought the fingerprint reader was just another gimmick but I have to say it really does work quite well. Even in landscape mode it reads my print perfectly. Movies/videos look and sound great, bluetooth works fine with Torque Pro (OBDII monitoring app for auto), wifi works great, currently using it with T-mobile and LTE works fine as well. Pretty great phone all around.

Pros: cost moto is close to pure Google decent screen size carrier compatible decent internal storage expansion camera is better than expected performance is better than expected fingerprint reader works well

Cons: lightweight 720p resolution

Overall Review: I like this phone. I have owned many Android phones, and although this is not as nice as a Pixel or Galaxy S7 edge, it definitely is an amazing value at $130.

Pros: US model works in all countries. Fair price ($129.99 USD = 35% exchange rate), Battery (2800 mAh) is removable. Hardware is up-to-date. Display is very nice. Almost pure Android… NO BLOATWARE! On-line support is great.

Cons: No NFC but I don't use iy on my iPhone so nothing lost.

Overall Review: I bought the phone to try out Android as I'm getting tired of the exorbitant pricing of the iPhones. I also had to have the iPhone replaced due to a bloating battery. Glad I had Apple Care.

Pros: - Very low price. - 2 GiB of memory. - Pretty decent processor (Snapdragon). - Snappy, responsive UI. - Compact size.

Cons: - LTE radio doesn't work on all bands used in the USA. - Camera quality is average.

Overall Review: This is certainly not a high-end phone. It's not excellent at anything, but it's good enough at everything. For the price, it's a really good value. It's better than the Moto G (Second Generation) was it when it came and that was $40 more at launch.

Pros: It seems like it will do everything a ten year old kid needs it to do and the price is right for the parent who doesn't think kids should have high end smartphones.

Cons: The one I received wasn't locked into Verizon anymore, but it's branded as such and still carries the Verizon version of Android. What that means in use is that there seem to be issues with inputting the APNs for T-Mobile. It won't allow the APN to be saved after entering, but it seems to be getting LTE fine from the network for data and voice. Also, I've had issues with getting Google Family Link to work properly. I can get it set up fine with my daughter's account, but at least once after a restart the phone rejected the account and reset all functions to "allowed." If this continues I will have to return the phone since my having control of the phone is a non negotiable subject until my daughter gets older.

Overall Review: If you're a Verizon user, then have at it! It's a great phone for the price and you won't have the issues I'm having in a different network. If you're buying for a kid and want total compatibility with your network and Google Family Link, maybe look for a true unlocked phone as this isn't really the same thing.

Pros: It's a great little phone for a reasonable price, purchased it for my daughter who was VERY excited about it and happy with it's performance.

Cons: Phone arrived locked to Verizon only. Even followed the directions on the box provided by seller in an attempt to use a SIM from another provider and which failed to unlock the phone to that provider.

Pros: Good price, size, & screen. Love the speach-to-text capabilities. Can play Candy Crush.

Cons: Long start-up time for Android. Shipping took longer than expected but within the time estimated. UPS was used to ship from reseller to the UPS distribution center in NJ who transferred to the USPS for final delivery. The package sat in NJ, somewhere between UPS and USPS, for 3 days before I received it. Had the package been delivered by UPS, I would have received it within 2 days of ordering. I will be more careful to understand the delivery method and upgrade shipping to UPS delivery.

Overall Review: I bought this phone for my wife's 90 yo mother to replace her tiny basic Tracfone phone. She uses her phone mainly for calls, text messages, and contacts. The Moto E4 can easily satisfy those needs plus she can play her beloved Candy Crush. Porting her number from Tracfone to T-Mobile was easy with the help of the local T-Mobile staff. Configuring the phone was quick and simple. Teaching her how to use the phone was quite simple. She caught on fast. She struggled at first with typing text messages with the digital keyboard so I showed her the speach-to text option which she now uses all the time

Pros: Small and lightweight compared to other phones available. Flashlight. Fingerprint sensor works well.

Cons: Camera app is hard to use and pretty limited. Reception is spotty, especially compared to my Droid Maxx. No wireless charging. My biggest complaint is that it does not sense when I am driving and have a decent handsfree interface. It may pop up on the screen asking me if I want to answer a call (and then I have to actually tap the screen. No reading me texts either. I don't know if this is a Google Assistant glitch or not, but I cannot find out how to make it talk to me and listen for responses like my old Droid Maxx.

Overall Review: It is definitely a step down from my Droid Maxx. I guess I should have expected that since it is a cheap Motorola model.
