The main attraction of Moto E3 is the addition of a water-resistant body. If you look at budget Android smartphones, you will not be able to find any device which is water-resistant and hence the move by Motorola is welcomed by tech enthusiasts.

While the rear camera features an 8-megapixel sensor with LED flash, the front-facing snapper is equipped with a 5-megapixel sensor. Moreover, there are reports that the Lenovo-owned company will release Moto E3 is both single and dual SIM variants loaded with Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow.
