So apparently Moto E series has survived for now. Lenovo has updated its Moto E series on the lines of Moto G, as was evident when it showcased the new Moto E3 in the United Kingdom. The third generation Moto E ditches 4.5-inch display of last year to embrace a bigger 5-inch 720p IPS panel. The Moto E3 claims to have a splash-proof construction and “built-in smudge-resistant screen protector”. It is not clear how different this is from the Gorilla Glass protection. Apart from this, it also integrates a new quad-core (unspecified) central processing unit along with 1GB of RAM.

Lenovo has also upgraded the primary camera to an 8-megapxiel resolution with LED flash and a 5-megapixel front facing selfie camera. It comes with 8 Gigs of on-board storage along with a microSD card slot for expansion. The phone is reportedly backed by a 2800 mAh battery which is improved over the previous generation Moto E. It runs on Andriod Marshmallow.
