    I bought the Moto G Play (2024) a couple of weeks ago, and I’m genuinely impressed. For such a cheap Android phone, it handles all the basics really well and offers amazing value for the price. **Performance**: It runs on Android 13, and everything feels smooth and reliable. Apps load quickly, and it handles browsing, streaming, and social media with no issues at all. What’s nice is that even though it’s a budget phone, it gives you the same basic Android experience as Motorola’s flagship models—clean, straightforward, and without unnecessary bloatware. **Display**: The 6.5-inch screen is bright and colorful. While it’s not full HD, it’s still great for watching videos and scrolling through photos. For the price, it’s more than enough for everyday use. **Battery Life**: This is easily one of the best features. The battery lasts a full two days, even with regular use. I don’t have to think about charging it constantly, which is a lifesaver for someone always on the go. **Camera**: The 50MP camera takes really nice photos in good lighting. The macro lens is a fun addition, though I don’t use it much. The selfie camera works well for video calls and casual photos, and overall, the camera performance is solid for the price. **Build**: The phone feels sturdy despite being made of plastic, and I appreciate the water-repellent design for extra durability. It doesn’t feel cheap in your hand, which is great for something in this price range. **The Downside**: One thing that really disappointed me was that the phone doesn’t come with a USB wall charger anymore. I know this is becoming standard for a lot of brands, but it’s frustrating to buy a phone and not have everything you need to charge it out of the box. For a budget phone especially, this feels like an unnecessary corner to cut. **Overall**: If you’re looking for a very decent, cheap Android phone that can handle the basics, the Moto G Play (2024) is a great option. It’s affordable but still delivers the same smooth Android experience as Motorola’s more expensive models. The long battery life and clean software are highlights, but I wish they’d included a wall charger. Even with that drawback, it’s a fantastic phone for the price!

    I am pleasantly surprised by how well this phone works. I needed an unlocked phone that I can use internationally as as I traveled. It has worked great, processing is just as fast as my iphone 13 pro max. can't really tell the difference. Has plenty of storage at 64GBs. No complaints. Love the phone and recommend it.

    For the price $140 it is a great 2nd phone It has all the features you would find in pricier units *mid range* the only problem I had was I damaged the screen and had it replaced. the replacement screen was garbage ... no reflection on the Moto G For a sub $500 phone it is hard to beat. pics were crisp and tunes were load ...
