What a phenomenal deal on a phone that's not tied to a specific carrier. The specs for the price point are amazing compared to paying $600 for a top-of-the-line Samsung or Apple.

Great little phone This phone is fast. It does all that I hoped for a much more. Beautiful clear, clean screen. The colors are clean clear and accurate. I did quite a bit of research before buying. I looked at many different brands and screen sizes. When I compared them all and adjusted for my needs and preferences, I kept coming back to this little underappreciated gem. Like a lot of folks I started out thinking that the more I paid the more I got. In the end I was wrong. For anyone that's looking for a little phone that's sharp fast and does most of what's the more expensive ones do this is a great choice.

i choose the apps, not the phone maker. fast, easy to use, camera is very good. though no wake button, the prompt shows up 100% of the time when moving phone, or use power button. like any other phone, need some learning and tinkering to maximize use. love it.

This was one of the best phone purchases I've ever made. I was tired of paying hundreds of dollars to my service providers for my devices. This device looks and performs GREAT. Buttery-smooth, no-frills Google experience in a quality built device (doesn't feel like cheap plastic) with a gorgeous screen. The only downside is it does not have a high-quality camera. These pictures won't look amazing compared to an iPhone, but considering you are paying a quarter of the price I have been very please and happy with my Moto G. Best of all, no contract with a service provider!

So far I haven't had trouble with this phone. At least nothing major. It has a good battery, brightness/screen, speaker. However, I didn't give this phone a 5 star for a few reasons. I can't find any cases or screen protectors for it, you can't have a different home wall paper and lock screen wallpaper, if you want a screen protector you will have to cut most of them to make sure the mic is uncovered. I ended up going days and almost bringing the phone back because I didn't realize that no one could hear me on phone calls because a thin piece of plastic was covering the on screen mic. They should of located that somewhere else.

Had been unwilling to replace a Samsung Galaxy s3 simply because it didn't seem like spending $400-$500 was worth it as I'm really not a mobile enthusiast.
Fortunately, I dropped my old phone and broke the glass. Decided to replace it with a $200 on the Moto G. It is similar my old phone in terms of use but the quality of the components has improved so much over the last four years that even I, an admitted non-mobile enthusiast can tell a huge difference.
If you are even thinking about replacing your phone, just do it. The price is so low and the quality so high, why not?

I needed a new phone and did not want to spend an arm and a leg. I found this phone at Best Buy for $199 and had them price match by $20 to get it for $179.99. It has an octa-core processor which is what my last Samsung S7 had. Two nice features of the phone is that it has removable memory and a removable battery. I originally thought I would have to pay over $500 since I did not have any warranty or insurance on my last phone. One of the best buyd that I have made in a long time still running great it's been 3 months since I bought the phone. Only downfall is that I am not able to surf the web while I'm on the phone, I am a Verizon Customer if that makes a difference.

All features in this phone. Competes with iPhone 7 and Google Pixel and even less than even half of their price. I would highly recommend this phone.

I have been watching for a 6" screen phone for a while now. I wanted to hold one in my hand before buying one on-line. When I finally found this one at BB , I liked the feel and size and especially the price, so I bought it on the spot. It doesn't have every feature I wanted, but for the price it's pretty well loaded, decent hardware features, Marshmallow allows you to extend system memory into the SD card so no more messing with apps and storage. It got me up to 4G with a large screen at a reasonable price. I do recommend handling it before buying - my wife thinks it's too big, and she uses a 5.5" screen.

Truly an amazing unlocked phone for anyone looking for one. Beautiful 5.5 inch screen, best battery life I've ever experienced on a phone, very powerful, smooth and fast! Android Nougat is the best so far.
Ive been using a borrowed iPhone 6 for 3 months and I will never,ever, EVER know why people choose them...They are so limited and overall lousy in soo manyyy ways, there is no comparison to the new generations of Android. I "super-highly" recommend this phone!!!

Cant beat the price of this phone with a dual sim for all service usage including international! Battery life is great. Great camera. Great power. Go to you service provider to get the Sim card. Mine gave it to me for free, howe've it may take them some time to figure out hoevtof put it in because it's dual sim. Tape the piece you need for international use to the interior of your phone or you may lose it when you need it. Don't like that the volume buttons are on the same side as the power button as I'm constantly hitting the power button accidentally. It's not easy to answer it the way the swiping is set up. Don't like that I can't download the yellow text message from the play store that I had on my Note 4 because it's much better. Miss some of the features I had with my Note though. Otherwise, awesome phone. Husband loves it.

I first would like to say that I don't buy expensive phones period. I want 4LTE, a great camera, fast processor, long battery life, and an HD screen. This phone has everything I require. I have no idea about how well it plays games.

Pretty great phone with 4G lte and a nice camera. Bought it for my mom and she loves it. A definite upgrade from the iPhone 4. It's just as big as my Note 7 in size and depth. And its unlocked! I put it on Verizon Prepaid.

Phone is great. Unlocked for all systems. Works better then my Note 5 that broke. Easy to use, reliable. Highly recommend for a primary phone or a secondary phone. Good price for features and cheaper than most phones.
