    Exactly what I needed, delivered ahead of the promised date, and working beautifully 6 weeks later. Even though it's smaller, typing on this touch screen is much more accurate than on my 7" tablet. Upgraded to the latest Android version with no problem. Takes great photos, too.

    Bought for my Mom not a heavy phone user so worked perfect for her. The price is perfect.The camera is the best takes great great photos but had to add memory to create space for them. No issue at all with it so far. Great phone for calls and regular stuff

    It is my first smartphone. I found it some what slow in loading pages even with 4glte. Otherwise it is fine phone for browsing the internet, reading emails, some audio and video on YouTube and Facebook. I have installed several applications on it which are working fine.

    I'm not a phone geek and price is more important to me then having the "best" phone. My wife's iphone 5 feels smoother and quicker in operations compared to this phone but I was tired of paying big dollars to have apple control my media. This phone does everything I need it to do for a very reasonable price. I bought one for my 13 year old and she is happy with it and no longer talks constantly how she wants the latest iphone!

    Bought refurbished for a family member. Phone is in perfect condition. A very nice, basic version of Android 6 installed without problem and the battery lasts all day. I actually preferred this Motorola G over my Nexus 5. The Moto G (3rd gen) is a great basic phone.

    This is my first smart phone. I bought 4 for the family. Think of it, 4 for the price of 1 iPhone!. Works great with my T-mo service. What's not to like? Motorola makes great products. And thanks Best Buy for your service.

    This phone is very difficult to use - does not follow standard operation procedures. The camera takes reasonably good pictures; however, there was not a button to push to take the picture. One has to try various areas on the screen before it takes.

    This cellphone has 8gb of space but Android system is already using 3.89Gb so if you have a lot of apps this is not a good cellphone, because you cannot move some specific apps to your SD card, I like Motorola but this cellphone disappoint me a lot.

    I was concerned about this being reconditioned. However, after several months of use it is exceeding all my expectations with continuous daily use. Great price and value.

    Needed a new phone and a new carrier. Best Buy advised me on options and directed me to the Motorola Moto G (3rd). Glad I got it plus it is water resistant.

    Had some reservation about buying a refurbished phone, but took the chance because of success I had with my last two Motorola phones. I really do not think this phone was even checked/refurbished, just boxed up again and sold. Mic did not work right out of the box. Took back for a refund.
