Decent Everyday use camera
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The phone works well. It is not a high end phone but does what you need. One bad thing is you can't move apps to the Micros SD Card. So can fill up the limited 32 GB internal storage with a bunch of apps. Will support a large Micro SD for pictures and music. The camera is ok.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought for grandson.

Posted .Thank you for sharing your feedback, KimberlyF. We’re glad to hear your device has served you well over the past year. We're sorry to know that you're experiencing slowness on 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://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. For battery performance, there are several factors that could be leading to quick discharge, these include, signal strength, charging habits & device settings.

If you're like me, with Boost Infinite or stuck waiting for a new sim card so you don't have service while you're replacement sim card arrives. . . THIS IS THE PHONE FOR YOU! Seriously. Works smooth, the screen is crisp and clear. The battery is a game changer. I can go with that phone (without music playing) from 40% my whole day of using Google maps, connecting to various wifi's, phone calls, texts and games. Great phone.

Ok phone. Potential issues upgrading to Pixel 6a
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall the phone is a good general phone. Only negative found was when transferring over Google account/info to a Pixel 6a. For some reason it kept throwing errors back and forth between the 2 phones. Not sure why this occurred since both phones had latest Android version.

Not even worth it as a cheap temporary replacement
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this phone to provide an interim solution to my son's unusable phone til we got home from vacation. While the phone's performance was better than I exp;ected- he prefers the function of the Moto G Play to that of his Samsung A14- we encountered a problem I did not foresee. As a former Motorola phone user, I was always impressed with the durability of the screens on them. This phone, however, had a fragile screen which broke the second day it was used. And subsequently, it broke severely numerous times over the 10 days we were gone.to I will not likely buy another Motorola phone, as my last personal one had a defective battery, which overheated, quit charging, and began to discharge rapidly while I was on a plane, coming home from another trip. Had I not noticed the batteries rapid discharge, I could have been stranded. I would not reccomend this phone; I would steer clear of it.
