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.

    Camera and graphics are not as robust as my old LG but battery life seems a lot better...thus far. I really like the FM App. Loading the SIM card was a little tricky. MOTO app is also pretty slick.

    The G5 plus is such an awesome phone. I love the gestures and the fingerprint scanner. The battery life is super long and lasts all day. Definitely a great budget phone.

    Bought for my wife. I have G5S Plus. Phone is easy to set up and has enough storage to eliminate all the app update hassles. We both use on Tracfone. Also some good features we like.

    Honestly, I can't think of a reason to buy a Samsung S8 over this phone, it does everything great and the price is RIGHT and it works on every carrier! I'm paying attention to Motorola now!

    For the average user, this phone will do just as well as phones that cost almost three times the price. Great battery life, fingerprint sensor, near-stock Android and solid build quality.

    The operating system is easy to use and it did not come with all the junk apps that you get when you buy a phone connected to a specific carrier. Charges fast and has good battery life.

    Love this phone! It is fast, works well, has a great camera & screen. Only issue I've had with it is the fingerprint scanner does not work reliably when the phone is plugged in & charging.

    I upgraded from the iPhone 4S and am really enjoying the Moto G5 Plus. The price was great, and all the features, gestures, and extra power have really made it much easier to use.

    The G5 Plus is a whole lot of phone for not a whole lot of money. The array of features and capabilities are plentiful, especially when you consider the price. It might not have all the bells and whistles of the latest and greatest, but it sure comes pretty darn close. Some have stated that the voice sounds a bit tinny, but I haven't had that experience with mine. I find the reception and voice quality to be exceptionally good. The size is perfect for my small to medium hands and the buttons are easy to access without any significant effort. There is no doubt this phone gives you the most bang for the buck. I highly recommend it without any reservation.

    Replaced a 4 year old Motorola with this one. Old one was a super phone. So far this one is good, but sometimes it has screen flicking issues when connecting to apps. Lightweight. Good camera too.

    I can't see spending $700+ for a premium cell phone. This phone meets all my requirements. The only weakness compared to my wife's Galaxy S8, is a much weaker camera.

    This phone has great build quality and it's running clean Android with no bloatware. The phone is fast and the camera is decent. This is a great phone for someone that doesn't need a flagship phone.

    Excellent value for the money. Very good battery life, exceptional screen, and the finger print sensor is a bonus. This phone does not feel like a budget phone but instead a flag ship.

    It is very fast, has a very good display, and a minimum of bloatware installed. The case is rather slippery to hold onto, so I highly recommend purchasing a protective case for it.
