Yeah I have already edited half, the specs I posted are from the Asda take to the till thing, the battery capacity, memory and screen size were wrong on it lol, noticed differences on Motorola and Voda webpage. No wonder its not selling Asda lol

Whenever see this phone in a deal I like to come on and commend it as a great little device for the money, but personally a bit laggy as a main phone.
It is great as a bedtime device though, I find the screen doesn't hurt ones eyes unlike other devices and it has a very good battery, front facing speaker, etc.
A lot of phone for £30.

Got one from Vodafone. With even just a few apps the lag often enders it almost unusable and incredibly frustrating to use.
Yes people refer to the price, but it almost makes it a pointless purchase regardless.

Wife has one and it is absolutely fine with several apps loaded. What exactly are you expecting? It's a budget phone, and a very good one, find a better phone for £30 - £40 quid and post it on here.

If you are willing to put in a little work and flash Cyanogenmod on it, then its fine. You'll also benefit from regular updates.
Since putting Cyanogenmod on mine I only seem to get a few seconds lag when starting Chrome. Then again, my tablet and last phone did the same thing when starting Chrome.

Anyone found one in their local store yet? Really thinking of rplacing my 1st Gen Moto E - the 4GB storage is a reall problem now its updated to Android 5.1

Try the app Twilight... It changes the screen colour for bedtime use to reduce eye strain and stop blue light which can wake you up.

Checked this in Asda Wolstanton today, which had the correct specs for the 2nd gen listed on the card. It was £40, not £30. Also scanned at the desk to confirm the price.
A phrase containing the words Wild & Goose is making a slow but determined march towards my keyboard.

Defo says 4G, SEL @ £30 perhaps need to get staff to check at till scanning price ? (which dependent on store management updating store reductions manually on a computer, not unknown for managers in retail to delay a reductions file for obvious reasons of sales manipulation of store profit reporting)
The orange highlighted SEL I believe is discontinued stock.

I already said for the price I wasn't expecting anything.
Was just my two pence on how I'd got on with the device personally.

Are these posts made up to generate traffic?! I've tried 6 Asdas in my area in the last 24 hours from Supermarket to Superstore in size, and all say they don't stock Moto E any more and haven't for some time!!

out of stock in Cambridge as well if anyone was considering it
I did say the highlighter on the shelf edge label was a discontinued sign. Sorry if people cant get one, it is old stock and discontinued now so stock will be patchy.
