    I picked up the Moto G Play 2023 for $99 to have as a spare, and to play around with Android. Being used to my iPhone 15 Pro, I find the G Play to be ridiculously slow and clunky. This phone takes several minutes to boot up, and nearly as long to load webpages. Two apps I use regularly on my iPhone would only load through a web browser. These apps are Ring and Flightradar24. I plan to keep the G Play as a backup only. I am sure Android will work well on more expensive phones.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    The features are good, wifi connections work over all it works pretty well other then the speaker cuts out a little when talking on the phone. If you buy a memory card to add space it works perfect as a normal phone.

      Thank you for reaching out and sharing your feedback, AlexS. We're glad to hear that the phone is serving its purpose as an emergency device and that you find it to be a good value for the price. We understand that you've noticed some slowness, and we apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. Slow is sometimes caused by too many running apps in the background, use your recent apps button to close apps you're not using. It is also a good practice to restart the device periodically (every 2-3 days) to clear out buffers and memory that may lead to intermittent issues. If the concern persists, kindly go to this link: https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/mcp/landing_troubleshooter/g_id/5059>; Next > Display/Touchscreen > Phone is slow/unstable and try the recommended steps there. Let us know if this helps by sending us an email at supportforums@motorola.com. -Mitch MotorolaMobility
