Moto E4 with basic equipment

With both smartphones, Lenovo emphasizes the quality in terms of value for money. The Moto E4 features a 5-inch display with HD resolution. The case is made of metal according to Lenovo. A MediaTek MT6737 is available for computing power, which has four cortex A53 cores with a maximum of 1.3 GHz clock. The ARM Mali T720 MP2 GPU clocks up to 600 MHz.

The 2.800 mAh measuring battery is interchangeable and is charged with 5 watts. Thanks to two nano-SIM slots, the operation of two SIM cards is also possible. The main camera offers a resolution of eight megapixels with an aperture of f / 2.0, autofocus and videos with up to 720p at 30 FPS. For Selfies, there is a 5-megapixel camera with forward-facing LED flash.
