The new Moto G Fast and Moto E are affordable Android smartphones for the US and Canada
This morning, Motorola is taking the wraps off two new devices in the popular Moto G and Moto E families. The Moto G Fast and new Moto E are decently-specced yet affordable Android smartphones for the U.S. market, which is something we don’t see a lot. As the name implies, the Moto G Fast is a mid-range phone with speed in mind, while the Moto E is a continuation of the company’s high-quality low-end offerings.
Moto G Fast
The Moto G Fast is a phone that Motorola prematurely posted a video for last week, and it’s essentially a rebranded Moto G8 for the United States. It features a 6.4-inch HD+ display with a single hole-punch cutout in the top-left corner. The device is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 665 SoC, 3GB of RAM, and 32GB of internal storage (expandable via microSD).
Motorola put a lot of emphasis on the cameras on the Moto G Fast. The main camera is 16MP while the secondary cameras are an 8MP wide-angle and a 2MP macro camera. The wide-angle lens has a FOV of 118-degrees, while the macro lens has a minimum 2cm focus distance. To wrap things up, the Moto G Fast has a 4,000mAh battery, supports 10W charging, has a USB Type-C port, and has a 3.5mm headphone jack.

Moto E 2020
The Moto E has long been Motorola’s lowest-end offering, yet it continues to get more impressive features. This time around, the new Moto E has dual cameras. The display is 6.2-inches at HD+ resolution with a centered notch cutout. It’s powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 632 SoC, 2GB of RAM, and has 32GB of internal storage (expandable via microSD).
Like the Moto G Fast, Motorola is touting the cameras with the new Moto E. The main camera is 13MP and it’s joined by a 2MP depth sensor. The depth sensor allows you to play with portrait modes and blurred backgrounds, something that’s not available on a lot of devices in this price range. Rounding things out, the Moto E has a 3,550mAh battery, supports 5W charging, has a micro-USB port, and a 3.5mm headphone jack.
