 It's on enthusiast hardware where we first see the innovations that trickle down to the mainstream stuff a couple of years later So there's usually a whole lot more for me to say about a piece of high-end gear than a value one But once in a while It's helpful to come back down to earth and find out just how much the value customer gives up compared to the enthusiast customer, so Welcome to a bit of a new style video for me I'm calling it a micro review about the Motorola Moto E 2015 4G variant Corsair H80i GT and H100i GTX all-in-one liquid coolers improve both the appearance and cooling of your PC Click my face or this spot or this spot how many annotations can he make Nick do to learn more? Since this is a micro video. There's no time to waste so let's get right into it This little guy is an entry-level smartphone whose killer feature is right in the name 4G connectivity But it gets some other upgrades as well compared to the 2014 model the processor has been boosted to a snapdragon 410 RAM holds steady at 1 gigabyte storage gets bumped from 4 to 8 gigs with the same micro SD expansion the battery capacity jumps 20% to 2390 milliamp hours and the screen jumps from a 540 by 960 pixel 4.3 inch display to an okay the resolution stayed the same and it only got bumped to four and a half Inches, but size ain't the only important thing here folks the new display is an IPS panel It's not the best I've seen and whites have a yellow or even slightly orange cast and blues are oversaturated But it's a heck of a lot better than TN so yay Joining that at the front of the phone is a 640 by 480 selfie cam a speaker that pulls triple duty as the headset speaker an Unexceptional loudspeaker and a great little storage nook for pocket lint and other random crap And that's about it the buttons are on screen at the back is the camera for 5 megapixel stills and 720p 30 FPS video that Stunningly doesn't include an LED flash I mean seriously how much more would that have cost then around the edges of the removable rubbery feeling ring are the micro USB charging port Satisfying feeling volume and lock buttons and a headphone jack Then you can pull that baby off if you want to get a different color one or access the micro SD and sim slots 3g version users will actually find two slim sauce and slim slim slots in here So let's talk about using this thing the screen is noticeably non retina It's pretty slow Android 5.0 lollipop in spite of its non bloated basically vanilla Implementation other than some little stuff like the handy Notification glance feature that I love on the droid turbo cannot save it compared to older hardware something like an iPhone 4 or 4s Non-power users might not be bothered but on occasion I found myself putting the phone aside to do something else while I wait for something which is never a good sign Which isn't to say that the whole experience is terrible the phone feels really Solid and the ergonomics are mostly good with more grip on the back being my only real request 2.4 only Gigahertz Wi-Fi is a bit of a drag but the good news is that my Bell LTE connection is Significantly faster than my landline which the 2.4 gigahertz connection could saturate anyway, and I have lots of data So there's that battery life was a really strong point I was expecting going from a 4000 milliamp hour phone the droid turbo to a 2000 ish milliamp hour battery would bother me But the lower power hardware in here allows it to easily Make it through my most demanding days with plenty of battery to spare Which leads to the micro conclusion of this micro video the camera is not as bad as I expected in decent light but the lack of a flash means that poor lighting conditions will come often and While at $20 more than the original moto-e it doesn't feel quite like a direct replacement Given how much has improved you're getting a great value for your extra 20 bucks with the most notable bits being for me the IPS display The improved battery life and of course LTE connectivity The only decision then to make is whether to spend a little bit more for the significantly better moto-g Speaking of significantly better wouldn't it be better to have an anime site created by anime fans for anime fans? Yes, I'm talking about country country roll that sounds delicious, but I'm actually talking about crunchy roll Which is also also delicious they offer the most current episodes of new shows straight from Japan like ace of the diamond and Karoko's Basketball 3 with a large collection of the most popular anime series like one piece and sword art online With full episodes of like all that stuff and all of the content on their site is professionally subtitled So all you got to do is head over to crunchyroll.com slash Linus, and you can sign up for a 30 Day free trial of crunchy roll premium our link gives you the whole month of free anime Completely ad free and if you enjoy the many benefits of premium like 1080p streaming getting new episodes of shows straight from Japan within An hour of their premiere and being able to stream anywhere anytime from a variety of devices like your phone tablet or game console You can continue your premium membership to crunchy roll for only 6.95 a month so head over to crunchy roll.com slash Linus and check it out So I think that's pretty much it.
