Motorola Moto E7 release date, price, specs and more
Taking the torch from the E-series phones that Motorola launched at the start of the year, the newly-announced Moto E7 offers up a promising set of features for less than £100.
The Moto E6s has served as one of the best budget offerings this year, particularly in the under-£150 price bracket. Motorola, confusingly, had already announced the Moto E7 Plus just last month but the new E7 shaves off some mAh from its battery capacity and makes a few other compromises to, rather impressively, push its price below a threshold of £100.
How much does the Moto E7 cost?
When we say “less than £100” the Moto E7 costs £99.99 in the UK, and while that’s only just below three figures, it doesn’t detract from the fact that there seems to be a lot of smartphone here for the price.
For reference, the beefier Moto E7 Plus costs £129.99.

What features does the Moto E7 offer?
While the Moto E7 may look very similar to its namesake in the existing Plus model, there are a few notable differences that help bring the price down.
Motorola is keen to push that the E7 will offer up to 36 hours of use per charge (roughly a day and a half) and boasts a quad-pixel 48Mp camera that totes superior low light performance to its predecessor.
Here’s the full spec sheet for the Moto E7:
…and here’s a rundown of the Moto E7 Plus’ hardware setup:
It’s worth noting that such affordability means features like NFC have been left out of the Moto E7 equation but the newer standard E7 does at least benefit from a more modern USB-C connection, compared to the Plus’ dated microUSB port.
