Those hoping to lay their hands on the Motorola Moto E are in for a treat as Flipkart has suddenly begun selling it at Rs 1000 less than its original cost. Available now for just Rs 5999, the device became famous last year for becoming one of the first affordable phones to run the Android 4.4 KitKat OS.

Its release in the country sparked off a tizzy among Indian manufacturers whose market share in the affordable smartphones category was suddenly disturbed by Motorola. The Moto E has given tremendous success to the company here in India, and it’s soon to be blessed with a successor as well.

Moreover, this handset will also be issued the Android 5.0 Lollipop update in the weeks to come. Back when we had reviewed it, we had found the lack of autofocus in its rear camera and the absence of a front snapper to be its only big drawbacks. Otherwise, this Motorola phone packs quite a punch with its impressive specifications.
