From a previous leak, we had found out that the second-gen Motorola Moto E LTE will be hitting Verizon, and that has finally happened. The carrier’s prepaid section is now selling the handset at $99 which is the same price at which Sprint is offering the phone through its own prepaid channels.
It should be noted that this is a no-contract deal, and that’s what makes it attractive. Verizon has revealed that it will be offering flexible plans with the second-gen Motorola Moto E, to help buyers in choosing the right amount of LTE data to suit their needs.
This Android 5.0 Lollipop-running Motorola smartphone sports a larger display than its predecessor, and grants improvements in other departments as well. Firstly, there’s a quad core Snapdragon 410 processor onboard, apart from a front camera that was missing on its precursor.
