    Great value camera. It is not cluttered with apps, has a good camera and a sensitive bright screen. I would recommend this phone to anyone looking for a good phone for a reasonable price.

    Has a pretty fast processor, good amount of RAM and good amount of regular memory. Camera doesn't have the best low-light capability, otherwise it's pretty good. No problems so far.

    I've been very happy with the Moto G5plus. The turbocharging feature in particular is wonderful. I can't notice a difference in speed between this phone and a much more expensive one.

    Great screen, camera and coverage. Works in very remote places! First Smart Phone for my son and perfect for the price. Works with Verizon PrePaid, so it is very affordable but looks pricey!

    I'm really impressed with the phone so far. It is very well built and the largely metal casing is gorgeous. This budget phone is surprisingly feature-rich, except a NFC chip for Android Pay. The rear camera takes sharp pictures in daylight and good pictures in low light, even comes with a dual flash. The screen is bright and very responsive to the touch. The home button has a capable fingerprint sensor and supports gesture commands. I have it connected it to a T-Mobile MVNO and it has been working perfectly (phone is also compatible with Verizon/Sprint, I believe). I'm very happy with it. It is a great, capable phone at a budget price.

    If you are looking for a nice phone and don't want to spend too much money this is a perfect choice, the camera and the screen are great and it comes with turbo charger, saves a lot of time.

    We purchased this for 78-year-old mom. She loves it! Easy for her to use, as she had smartphone experience, bot not a lot to get confused by. Fast and seems well made and reliable.

    The price was right, but not very durable or user friendly. If you're used to the Samsungs, this phone is sub-par.

    I thought coming from an IPhone to this would be difficult but this phone is so easy to use. The only criticism would be to have the phone have a different ringtone for some of my apps.

    I used to have the previous series from Motorola (MOTO G 4) and as I was really satisfied I decided to stay with Motorola. Overall the phone is an excellent choice based on the price.

    I got bought this 32gb phone for my daughter as the old one did not have enough memory to even send text, imagine that. The sound amplification is good, not extremely loud but good for listening to music and phone conversation. Phone calls work and gaming looks neat. There was a problem getting it connected to wifi to use the internet as the connection lost contact. But i was happy my daughter knew how to go into advanced setting and it was good to go. She likes it and so i'm happy with it. Plus we were able to get life360 app to work on it whereas the older phone with 8gb did not have available memory for it, thank you.
