Moto E3 Power goes on sale in Hong Kong

 

Motorola has officially started selling a new version of its budget smartphone, E3 in Hong Kong. Moto E3 is an upgrade over E3 with the focus entirely on offering better battery life.

Motorola E3 Power has a design very similar to the one found on E3, aesthetically they are indistinguishable. Moto E3 itself borrowed its design cues from the fourth generation Moto G, so it’s kind of nice. Like E3, Moto E3 Power features a 5-inch display with a resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels. Under the hood, there is a 1GHz quad-core MediaTek processor coupled with 2GB RAM and 16GB internal storage.

As far as the camera is concerned, Moto E3 packs an eight-megapixel primary camera with auto-focus and LED flash. The smartphone also gets a 5MP front camera which should appeal to those looking at a selfie camera.

While Moto E3 is all about its budget specifications, the smartphone gets a big bump in the battery department. Moto E3 Power is backed by a 3,500mAh battery as opposed to 2,390mAh one found in the Moto E3.

According to Playfuldroid, Moto E3 Power is currently available for sale in Hong Kong and supports dual SIM and runs Android 6.0 Marshmallow out of the box. Considering Motorola’s track record with Android updates, there is a high possibility of this one getting Android 7.0 Nougat update very soon.

Moto E3 Power supports 4G LTE and is available only in Black colour variant. It is unclear whether Motorola plans to bring the device other markets like India.
