Moto E is a good phone, thats the one i am looking at on contract, seems to have a good battery life

its got a really good battery life - I bought one a couple of months ago, granted I only use it for browsing etc for less than an hour a day, but I don't need to charge it for 3 or 4 days at a time.

I was looking at then on Tesco Mobile although i only need a sim, but its the same price for a s#SIMO than phone contract, so may as well get a secondary phone.

but i states

Please note: this handset comes with a USB cable but not an AC adapter.

so will only charge through PC unless i purchase an AC charger

It will charge from any USB port.

The Moto G is the same, no adapter in the box.

you can buy a wall plug converter though, they cost about £1 on ebay, thats what I did - like this one on amazon -

If it's a USB adapter/charger it will work. That's the reason they have omitted the, from the box, the reasoning is that most people already have a spare or spares from previous phones.

It will mostly sit in a draw anyway. ordered one as for some strange reason with Tesco mobile you get a SIMO for £7.50 on 12 month contract with 250 mins, 5000 texts Monthly 500MB inclusive data allowance, bit you can get the Motorola Moto E with same allowance on a 24 mth contract for the same price and i can get a sim swap to Nano once phone arrives, so i can use the contract in my 5c, so Moto E will sit as a spare
