    I've had this phone for about a month now and just love it. I previously had a Samsung Galaxy II. Battery life is good... I easily get a full day on a single overnight charge and in those instances where I forgot to charge it overnight it charges quickly. I like the new Android system... much more intuitive. I had bought the larger G4 but found it bigger than what I wanted but my wife was looking for a new phone so I gave her the G4 and I bought the slightly smaller G4 Play. I have a hard time finding anything that I don't like about this phone.

    Very affordable phone while not lacking on processor speed and features. Phone can be used on all carriers in the United States.

    This unlocked Moto G4 Play replaced my locked Moto X which lasted almost 4 years before breaking and becoming unusable. So far I am happy. There is no learning curve going from the X to the G4. It seems faster and call quality is the same while picture quality is better. It doesn't feel as durable and that is why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5..

    I had a Moto x I really liked but the charge port got fouled up. I wanted to stay with Motorola but carrier didn't have any motorola phones and I didn't want to pay $$$$ for the new phones they currently support.. this is a nice fast phone for a great price. No complaints at all. It has sd port which my old Motorola didn't have and the battery is replaceable Which is rare on newer phones that I was looking at. I haven't hit all of the features but a definite upgrade from prev phone without a contract.. very cool!!!

    This phone worked out great for an out of town/country guest - we bought it to be able to contact them easier and cheaper while they were here plus they were able to take the phone home and still use it - great value

      Hi Wheelie,

      Thanks for your feedback! The phone is unlocked and is compatible with major carriers in the US. The phone can be used in and outside the country but can't guarantee that all carrier features will work. Glad to know that it works great, good job!

    I am absolutely glad I purchased this phone. I researched before-hand and it paid off. Wanted the best phone for under $200 and I got it. I had an S3 and had to constantly clear the cache to play games. I have yet to do it with this one. I paid extra and got the unlocked version and will certainly buy again if something happens to it.

    I read all the reviews before purchasing. I was looking for an unlocked phone to use on Ting. This fit the bill and does all that I need it to do. The screen is a nice size. The battery has lasted me two days which is much better than the one I was replacing. I got an additional one for my husband to replace his flip phone. He likes it too.

    This is the first smart phone I have owned. I had waited a long time to purchase a smart phone for two reasons: I did not want to pay an outrageous price and I wanted a phone that I could easily carry in my front pocket. This phone does everything I need it to do. I can normally get 2 or 3 days usage without having to recharge it. (I turn it off when I'm asleep.) After 3 days of normal use I still have about 50% battery left. (I try to limit the types of apps that quickly drain the battery.) I think this phone is an excellent choice for anyone that needs a phone for a reasonable price.

    Moto g4 play is a $150 andriod device for someone who doesn't need a flagship and want to save money.it has a everything who need for everyday use. Don't expect anything powerful like the flagship devices .This a not a powerful phone but will just get the work done. Great choice if you are looking for a back up phone.

    I got this phone as a gift for my girlfriend, she's not really into having the latest smartphone but the one she had was horrible and she needed an Upgrade, so I did some research, read some reviews and it sounded pretty good.. right off the bat she loved it just what she needed way faster than her old phone and around the same size not a huge screen like the newer smartphones, it's it's been almost over a month since he's had the phone no problem so far and don't expect any!

    Solid phone with good battery life lasts all day. Does not have all the bells and whistles and the screen is ok not the best. Colors are faded when compared to flagship phones or one plus3. Still I recommend this phone for average user.

    Moto g4 play is best low cost phone with stock Android (without any unwanted preinstalled apps). It supports most of carriers internationally. Its 4G LTE phone. Camera is good for taking non moving object pictures. Screen is not gorilla glass so screen guard is must to avoid scratches. The aluminum band casing is amazingly sturdy which protects phone from fall very well. It has got expandable memory slot as well. I brought one more.
