    Bought it for my dad, it was so bad he went back to his beat down old one. Then my wife tried it. Got tired of hearing her complain every day about how slow it is, so I bought her something else. It now lives in the drawer as a spare.

    Great price and fast delivery, but the phone is terrible. I tested the internet, photo/app transfer and features and it failed big time. The instructions and prompts leave you hanging. My 9 version Samsung Galaxy is still better. Boxed this Moto up and sent it back after 3 days of getting no where.

      Thank you for bringing this to our attention, DonnieJ. We're sorry to know that you're experiencing slowness with your phone. 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://en-us.support.motorola.com/app/mcp/troubleshooter_page/g_id/7731 and try the recommended steps there. Should there be any further inquiries, please do not hesitate to email [email protected]. We'll be glad to help. -Belle MotorolaMobility

    This phone is the worst! It is very SLOW, even with just a few apps installed. I dropped it once, 3 days after I purchased it and it shattered, you can even see the internal components. It's complete garbage.

    device is sooo slow takes 30 seconds to open and begin functioning most of the time, and sometimes the screen goes to a dark mode, maybe a power saving feature but I didn't tell it to do that part.
