Customers are saying

Customers appreciate the Moto G Plus (5th Gen) for its affordability, especially during the holiday season. They are also impressed with the camera quality and the excellent battery life. The phone's storage capacity and unlocked status are also well-received. However, some customers have expressed concerns about the lack of NFC, which limits the use of Android Pay, and the speaker volume, which they find inadequate.

    This phone is great for how low the price was. I've been using iPhones for years, and the transition to this phone was painless. It's fast, and seems to keep pace with flagship phones and less than half the price. I would highly recommend.

    The Moto G5 plus is an excellent mid range performer. I replaced a 2015 Moto X pure with this phone. Performance wise it exceeds the Moto X and I love the fingerprint reader with the navigation controls. Going back with a left swipe gesture is a feature I loved on the 2009 palm pre and now it's available on Android!

    A worthy replacement for a Windows phone

    This is a good replacement for my Windows phone. Got 4G RAM which is worth the extra $50. A friend who has the same phone with 2g RAM has noticed some lag but is a more intensive user than I. It's good to be back on an Android phone app wise. The screen resolution is great unless you're into VR or a gamer. Battery life is good. 2-3 days unless there's a lot of app usage. Love that the finger print scanner is on the front. Haven't used the camera very much yet. Unless you're on an unlimited data plan and stream or use the cloud, add an SD card for extra storage for pics and music. Had this phone for >a month and have used half of 64G of phone storage. Sound quality is very good. I recommend this phone to anyone who doesn't want to spend more on a phone than they would pay for a laptop.

    Honestly, the best thing about this phone is the epic battery life! It’s pretty much just a faster version of my old phone but the cameras and marathon battery performance make this one of the best I’ve owned!

    I'm very happy with the phone. It is much better than my previous one, and I did not want to spend the big bucks required for the latest greatest ones. My only disappointment is with the app for calling. I cannot see any way to set categories for my contacts (helps when you cannot remember a name, but you know it was a business contact, etc.)
