Motorola latest budget device, the Moto E22i has launched

Motorola, a sub-brand of Lenovo, has announced the launch of a new budget device that comes with Dolby Atmos technology, which is a first for the Motorola E range with the Moto E22i.

The Moto E22i has been described by the company as delivering a whole new level of premium entertainment at an incredibly accessible price point through the inclusion of Dolby Atmos–enabled stereo speakers.

Speaking at the launch of the Moto E22i, Kurt Bonnici, Head of Motorola for Australia and New Zealand has stated:

“Motorola is more committed than ever to pushing boundaries, from industry-leading cameras to next level audio capabilities. The new moto e22i gives users an exciting mobile experience that’s feature rich without breaking the bank. At Motorola we continue to set industry benchmarks thanks to our consumer-led approach to innovation. The moto e series is a great example of this, originally launched as an entry-level, no-frills phone, the franchise has gone from strength to strength. We will continue to make the most exciting and useful features accessible to more consumers, delivering great value without compromise.”
