Motorola - Moto E5 Play with 16GB Memory Cell Phone (Unlocked) - Black

I bought this item on 3/25/19: Motorola - Moto E5 Play with 16GB Memory Cell Phone (Unlocked) - Black. Although the specs on this phone arent the highest possible, I am super satisfied with it since I dont do much on cell phones anyway. I just call, text, and surf the web. I have used the 3rd generation (g3) and 4th generation (e4) as well, and know motorola is an awesome brand! the sound quality and lack of bloatware are great features of their products! at $130, its a superb value for the money. it has everything i need and nothing i dont. correct me if im wrong. but this is the cheapest smartphone there is that has acceotable specs. i was thinking of an asus zenfone for 120 dollars. but it has only 1 gb ram and the customer rating was only 3.5. so id have regretted purchasing that phone. btw i dont care that it doesnt have a fingerprint reader since no one else will use this phone. i dont need to worry about it getting lost or stolen since its always on me. overall this motorola moto e5 play is awesome!!!

this entry level unlocked smart phone is a great value. loyal moto phone owner of several models: G4 play, G5+, X4, G6. PLUSES- decent 720hd screen display. moto actions- (Facedown= DND mode, pickup= mute ringing, 3 finger press=screenshot). minimal bloatware. front LED camera flash. MINUSES- low 16gb memory. mediocre camera performance (8mp, 5mp quality). no fingerprint sensor like in other 'prepaid MVNO' models. out of date security version. stuck on Android 8.0, no further updates. OVERALL this E5 play is a great 1st smart phone for kids and mature adults. Good backup phone for GSM service carriers.

Can't expect too much at this price, but this is a good, simple phone. Got this as a temp phone while my other phone was being repaired. Everything worked fine, clean Android OS was great. The camera was pretty meh and the build feels cheap, but again, what can you expect at the price point? If you can afford to upgrade to a Moto G6 or Moto G6 play (Moto Forge if you're on Cricket), it's probably worth the extra cash. But if you just want the cheapest possible smartphone that is still usable, this phone works.

An older model without all the bells and whistles. Decent battery life with excellent capability for battery change. Needs a memory upgrade. Maybe a little slower processing speed but I am pretty slow myself so it's ok

Bought this phone for my mother after her LG died. It's a phone. She liked her LG much better. We went with this phone which was $50 more than the bottom line model of LG they had at the time as mom thought the camera had better colour than the LG. But once she actually started using it outside it wasn't better, at least not better than her pervious bottoms line LG. She also doesn't like the overall interface on this Moto compared to her old LG.

I needed a quick and cheap replacement for another phone that went bad. Got this as it was in stock at the local best buy. Phone has exceeded my expectations. Didn't come preloaded with a bunch of aps or programs taking up memory. I mainly use it for texting, email, social aps, and navigation. Plenty fast and no issues. Battery life is very good and I was suprised that it lasts a full 2 days before I have to charge again. This is with only an hour or two a day of use (checking email, browsing web, streaming music). Comes with a fast charger which will get the battery mostly charged up in only an hour or two. As another reviewer mentioned, the description is wrong. This DOES NOT have a fingerprint scanner. I was expecting it to, and disappointed that the description was incorrect, but I would have bought it anyway.

Awesome replacement phone, unlocked with a bit more than basic features

The Moto E5 play smart phone takes great pictures, the sound quality when playing music is great and loud enough that you don't have to plug into a headset or external speakers.
