Conclusion
All three smartphones – the Redmi 2, Moto E second gen and Lenovo A6000 – carry the same price tag, so it all boils down to what they have to offer. To begin with, the Lenovo A6000 brings a large screen experience with its 5-inch display, but the Redmi 2 offers the sharpest and best display among all three. However, the A6000 is highly portable at 128 grams, compared to other two.
All three support similar connectivity options (Moto E lacks USB OTG) and similar storage space with expandable storage space up to 32GB. In terms of battery, Moto E still lags with a 5MP rear and VGA front-facing cameras. In terms of performance, Lenovo and Xiaomi have employed Snapdragon 410, while Motorola goes with Snapdragon 200.
However, the Moto E steals the show when it comes to the OS, as it runs stock Android – the latest iteration 5.0 Lollipop.  Moreover, it is offered by a more seasoned OEM. The Moto E 4G variant is yet to launch in India, which could give the others a head start.
On paper, Redmi 2 comes across as the winner. Though the Moto E doesn’t shine when it comes to the specs, it comes from a more seasoned OEM and we can expect a decent performance.
