It would do pretty well as a standalone media player, but next time the Moto e4 goes on sale, that definitely edges out the Asus 2E for playing music or video, with 2GB/16GB, fast charging, and Android 7.1. The problem with the e4 is that the dirt-cheap version only works on Verizon Prepay, and there’s no feasible way to unlock it for use with anything else.
