First Refurbished Cell Phone

I purchase "budget" cell phones. As years go by, budget phones are improved to the extent that "you get what you pay for" loses its meaning. This particular budget phone caught my eye. Basically, because of the large battery. I have had Moto phones before so I was familiar with them. However, I have always purchased new, unlocked phones. I wanted to buy the unlocked Moto g7 Play. The g7 has better specs, but I wanted a large battery. The difference in price was negligible. But, looking at Best Buy online, I saw an unlocked, refurbished Moto g7 Play for a significant drop in price from new. I decided to bite the bullet and see what kind of product was delivered. I am happy to state that refurbished doesn't mean old, used, beat-up or defective. I received a phone that was indistinguishable from a "new" model on display at local retailer. So, the advantage was I was able to physically get my hands on a g7 play, and feel it and see how I liked it, and then order a refurbished g7 Play from Best Buy at almost 1/2 the price of new - with free shipping. Also, as an aside, the camera takes wonderful pictures. And, the battery is terrific. So, I heartily recommend Best Buy for providing a wonderful product at a fantastic price. And, I have purchased many phones over the years from many different sources.

The Excellent battery life paired with a decent screen size and the low price makes this a great back up or maybe a first time phone for a beginner in the mobile phone realm.
Overall a solid, quick device that is extremely well priced. You could spend 3X's the amount for a phone that will die when this one is still at 70-80%!!!
I gave it four stars because their is stiff competition in this price bracket. USB type C should be standard. And the snapdragon is a little outdated.

Overall a decent phone, and the refurbs on BestBuy have always been good. This model, however, tends to have trouble with sending text messages once in a while. Research shows it is an incompatibility with the TMobile network.

This phone is awful, don't waste your money on it. It slips out of your hands, and off of every surface. Because if falls all the time the screen should be stronger, but it's not and it cracks super easily. It corrupts save data on your SD cards, and the wifi is extremely unreliable.
AVOID THIS AT ALL COSTS!

The phone suffers from performance issues and heats up often from minimum use. The battery is supposed to last longer than my old phone but it doesn't. It's refurbished and you can definitely tell it's not new.

The phone I got had no cosmetic wear & tear. Call quality is clear on incoming and outgoing calls. Funny enough, mine came with Samsung adaptive fast charger and it charges fast like 80% in 30 minutes, wow! From 100% , I'm getting around 36 hours (5 hours screen time) battery life with 20% left. Quad core performance + 3 GB RAM is sufficient for my needs. It handles old 3D games but struggles on the likes of PUBG, etc.
Multitaskingg is smooth between apps. Picture quality from 13 MP camera is decent (see image). The only letdown is the shiny plastic back the attract fingerprint.
