    My wife is a moderate average user coming off a Note 4. This phone is fast and provides a clean android experience without the Samsung bloatware/touchwiz. She says she like the Moto G Plus 5 more than she ever did the Note 4 and that was well over twice the price. She doesn't game/watch endless videos or heavily multitask and this fits her needs at a much lower price.

    Bought the phone to help another. Her G4 crapped out, and so I gave her my LG Stylo 2 Plus. As a replacement, this Moto so far is alright. When I took the phone off airplane mode, it took awhile to find the LTE signal. Just had to reset it. Camera is....ahhh, okay. Good enough. All n all, it's worth the buy! Go out and cop you a good unlocked cell!!!

    Do you really need to spend 700 bucks on a phone? I don't think so. The Moto G5+ works / looks fine to me. Took a day or so to set up my email & stuff. I used the Verizon 'content transfer' app to get things moved over from my Droid Mini to the G5+. If you have a HP printer get the 'HP Print Service Plugin' app. Print from your phone! Try that with your iPhone. :)

    All i can say i love this phone has its own perks to it, like shake the phone to turn on flash light i think thats pretty cool. Camera is great, phone calls are clear even on speaker and also has fingerprint technology. Colors on screen are nice and clear and the battery is amazing. Last me all day with heavy usage. All in all good phone for the $ cant go wrong.

    My LG G4S crapped out on me with 6 months left on my lease so I had to get something cheap. I thought with such a low price I wasn't going get much but this phone is much faster than my LG was and it has the best battery of any phone I have ever owned. Only cons are the screen scratches​ very easily and the camera isn't great but I can live with that

    I had upgrade my phone so I would be able to receive videos from security cameras Etc. I've always been a Motorola phone fan and this phone certainly hasn't disappointed me in the least. The cost of purchasing the phone unlocked as opposed to purchasing a phone through the phone carrier is night and day. From now on it's nothing but unlocked phones for me.

    The battery is great, the camera is quick, there's more than enough space for someone who does only text, emails, and family pictures. I have only had the phone for a short while, but it works great and does what I need it to do. It goes to show there are other good phones to purchase without breaking the bank on an iPhone or Galaxy.

    This is without a doubt the best phone under $300 bucks.The finger print is the best in the business, bloatware is almost non existent, the screen is awesome and so is the keyboard. I have no negative things to say about this phone.....oh did I mention that it will work with any carrier, charges quick, battery is great and has FM radio! Get one!

    The Moto G Plus has a very good feel. I am a novice and need my children to teach me the phone, it had more capabilities than I need and I must learn to turn the tracking locator off and learn to delete emails. I had the Moto e and loved it and hope to learn my G Plus as well. I am a brand shopper and will stay with what I know however, where to you go for service with Motorola, humm never found that number.
