Moto E is powered by a 1.2GHz dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 processor along with Adreno 302 GPU alongside 1GB of RAM. The Moto E is a dual-SIM phone that supports Micro-SIM cards and an 'intelligent calling feature.' It runs on Android 4.4 KitKat.

In addition, Motorola at its London event of the Moto E revealed the 4G LTE-capable version of the Moto G.

Notably, the Moto G 4G features a microSD card slot, with support for cards up to 32GB. This essentially removes the biggest qualm users had with purchasing the device - a wise decision that Google may want to emulate with the next Nexus smartphone, whenever it's launched.
