    Smooth Transition

    I was a little concerned about the learning curve of jumping from a 3-year-old basic Android phone to the Moto G Plus. But the transition has been almost painless! My only complaint is with Android in general. It seems the new OS does not allow my phone to send/receive MMS text messages when the phone is on WiFi calling. I actually have to disconnect from WiFi to do that. Weird & rather inconvenient! Otherwise, I am very happy with my new phone.

    One of the best phones with accessories on the market. Snap on speakers are great as is the camera attachment.

    Don't get flattery by the spec. The camera quality will be ok and sometimes the call gets dropped. Screen quality is good and speaker sound is ok

    I got this phone after having a Moto Pure. I wish the Pure hadn't been discontinued because it was nicer than this one, though it did cost more. I miss that you can't wave your hand over it to get the time and notifications like the other Motos (it is the small things in life). I still think this phone is a good value. Slight side note: I love buying my phones through Best Buy because of the protection plans they offer for new phones. Best Buy's customer service is great.

    This is my third Moto G phone - they're not "top of the line", but they're pretty good phones for the price.

    Basic features are ok but movie clips can't be enlarged, messages not easily viewable and can't be forwarded easily. Samsung is a better phone.

    Given the price point, I had low expectations with this phone. I use this for work and generally am very hard on my phones. I'm extremely happy with this purchase. The screen looks better than my HTC One and my Samsung Note, it processes quicker, and best of all, I don't appear to have been stuck with any manufacturer-specific bloatware. So far, best battery life of any phone I've owned. Great camera, and it doesn't overheat (like my HTC ONE) to the boiling point.
