I bought a Moto E, and am running the stock firmware (Android 4.4.3).

I can't use Google Cardboard because the device doesn't have the sensors to detect movement or the magnetic 'tap'.

I can't use GoShow (which seems to be the most popular app for watching 3D video) because it crashes.

Today I finally had a reason to buy a Chromecast, until I saw no Moto devices are on the list of supported devices.

:(

You bought a smartphone of 130 $, so you have a low-end phone.

Want a smartphone, buy whatever you want. Want a decent one, spend more then 299 $ ( current situation / most cases ).

I come accross enough discussions, where someone bought the cheapest smartphone and always wants the latest features. Just didn't think it would be here also...

[1] says that support for other devices is coming soon. Given that Motorola is at the moment still Google, runs nearly vanilla Android, and is usually quick to get new features, I wouldn't be surprised if at least the Moto G and X get this soon as well.

The Moto E is really a low-end device, with a relatively weak CPU, so I wouldn't expect too much at all. Of course, having a Chromecast is still great for apps that support Chromecast.

Yes. Low-end CPU I can handle, as it's still turing-complete :)

It hadn't occurred to me that I would soon want to use apps that require a compass and gyroscope :(

I just downloaded it for Moto X, haven't tried it yet though
