Even though the Idol is sexy it only has 512mb RAM and the Moto E has 1gb RAM

If you're thinking about using this Phone for just what you said you are, I would say borderline yes.
But if you're thinking about using anything else, then No.

All phones are unlockable whether they can be rooted or not.
Something like that phone, especially being dual sim, should already be unlocked.

I don't think it is where I am instead of the duel slim we get SD card slot, Duel slim models don't have a SD Slot, By unlockable I mean myself for free

I wouldn't know, I don't know much about phone's
I've got a Samsung Galaxy S2, it's and old phone now, but it's amazing I can't fault it!
I think in second hand shops it's only like 100, so in America, 80 Dollars or so...
