    Great phone, but experience problems with Verizon

    No complaints with the phone - it looks good, it feels great, its sleek, its fast, its perfect. Absolute steal for the price. No lag, nothing unexpected, works absolutely smooth. Only major problem I faced was horrible network issues with my verizon number. After multiple talks with Verizon, realized its a bad problem within the area (I live in NYC), and am deciding to make a switch. Just one suggestion: Test with your verizon sim card before buying, because I had multiple issues with it as a carrier.

    A lot of great features: fingerprint sensor, split screen, shake to enable flashlight/camera (Moto feature), and others. No bloatware. It's a budget phone, so you're not going to get the best camera and display.

    I specifically, was looking for a Motorola after having a great experience with moto z and I was hoping this would match my experience too.. The screen shot feature doesn't work and space is limited.

    Bought this for my 13 year old son. Great phone for the price. I see no reason to spend tons of money on a phone for a child when a less expensive phone has just about the same features and capabilities. The gorilla glass makes this a durable option for kids and adults alike, the battery life is decent, and the memory seems sufficient for all the apps and games my son downloads- especially with the additional memory card slot. Overall, very happy with my purchase and so is my son!

    After 3 iPhones, I came to the decision it was time to eliminate the ridiculous monthly charges. Using an Android phone has taken me through a learning curve; however, I'm happy with the phone and my savings.

    The Moto G series has combined great Android software with decent-enough hardware. Considering this smartphone is priced at under $300, a 1080p display is pretty impressive. Comes with a front ad back camera. Audio is decent, the mids and highs are crystal clear, while the lows are nice and boomy. I have wanted the white color but not available in store. Mobile has plastic in the back probably for better signal receptance. Handy to have around with the generic charger.

    After leaving pure Android phones to use Galaxy s5, and the S7, I had had enough with bloatware and decided to return to pure vanilla Android phones. Pixels would have been my choice but their batteries are a turn off so I bought this phone after a lot of research. Zero bloatware and excellent battery life. Lasts more than 24hrs with several hours screen on time. It's also supposed to receive the Oreo update. Money well spent. I hope Moto continues to make these phones.

    If you are looking for a cheap unlocked phone that has the majority of the features you require from a smart phone this is a great option. If you are the type of person that doesn't need a fancy gimmick to get you to buy a phone and you are needing an unlocked phone to replace or augment a existing phone look no further. FYI Motorolla G5plus and G6 are same chip in phone, but newer phone that replaces this model has a better screen, more ram and camera.
