Loved it! Bought it for my mom in white. Used it. Loved it so much, got a black one for my dad. White looked amazing. Apps were performing very well. No space issues like I have in my iPhone. Then came the black. Looked even awesomer! (If that is even a word). Doesn't get stuck. Can use in india with any gsm sim. Just perfect. I envy how reliable it is. I love my iPhone but I still can't stop thinking about g4 play. I recommended it to one of my friends. Never thought android phones can be this Sophisticated.

Switched from Samsung Galaxy phone to this model because of the price difference. It was hard to leave Samsung, but you get WAY more for your money and an excellent phone, too. My only ding on this phone is it is supposed to have Gorilla glass but within the first two weeks the glass got scratched somehow and I have no idea how. The battery lasts a long time, hours and hours. The camera is good. Also, I love that this phone is unlocked and, therefore, I have the ability to ditch my cell phone carrier whenever I want to look for a better price and can just use this phone with another carrier.

1. It's carrier unlocked! Works with any major US carrier (Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, Sprint) with 4G speeds (and slower speeds as well). Will probably work with any carrier that allows you to BYOD (bring your own device). And will probably work on networks around the world with the correct SIM card and plan, but may not work on all frequency bands in some non-US locations. 2. Good battery life, probably very good. I use this as my 2nd phone but other reviewers give it good marks as well. 3. No non-Google bloatware (unless you buy the version with lockscreen ads - this one here is NOT that!) 4. Sounds good and works very well. Latest version of Android on this phone is Marshmallow (6.0.x). Having worked with the very latest version (Nougat) on another phone, and then downgrading it to Marshmallow, I recommend sticking with Marshmallow for the time being. 5. Easy to get cases and screen protectors for this, and quite inexpensively. 6. 16GB memory is a bit lean, but I recommend installing a 32GB or 64GB Class-10 name-brand Micro SD card (yes it takes one!) and allowing the phone to "adopt" it. Read more about this online. 7. Easily removable / interchangeable battery. 8. According to reviewers, camera is decent at best; that said, it's certainly not "bad." I have installed "Camera MX" from Appic Labs - available in the Play Store. To me it's an improvement over the default camera app. 9. While it's not the fastest phone, performance-wise, it performs well, especially for the price. Note: This phone takes a Micro SIM - many modern phones take a Nano SIM, which means you will need to change SIM cards if coming from an iPhone 5, 6, 7 (for example) or getting a SIM adapter (be careful using these, but they can be made to work well, and once installed and working, you are fine).

We purchased the Motog 4 play basically because we were looking for a smart phone at a reasonable price. This phone received many good reviews, so we went for it. We have had it two days and it is definitely a learning curve. Basically I think we are able to do everything that we want to for the moment, with the exception of sending and receiving picture messages. I know the apn settings, but the phone would not allow me to access this area so that I could enter them. I cannot find out how to do this either on the user guide or just googling my question. Otherwise, the phone is very nice. Attractive, responsive. Sharp, crisp words/images; lots of app choices. The camera works well and the images are beautiful, very clear, great color. Battery life is very good. I wish you could turn the sound up a little higher though. We have it up all the way and text message notification sound is still hard to hear. When we get the picture messaging issue fixed, I would definitely give this phone 5 stars

I was looking for a mid-range android phone and found this Moto g 4 play. I would have purchased the larger version, Moto g4 plus, but I like the smaller- sized g 4 play. This phone has everything I need : good camera, easy to operate, unlocked for use in other countries, a removable battery, latest android version and large capacity SD card. For me, it's perfect
