    There's a catch

    The phone is great and we got it for a very good price but just be forewarned that you are leasing this phone for one-year. If at the end of the year you want to keep it, you have to pay an extra $75 OR you return it to Verizon. This means you'll need another phone. The phone itself we had no issues but we want other buyers to be aware of this because we weren't when we bought it. Since most people upgrade every year-every two years we thought we would try it for the year then decide. Who knows, we might find another cheap and new phone.

    Good phone for Verizon prepaid

    First thing's first - this is for Verizon prepaid only. It can't be used on GSM providers, at least, not 100%. Some intrepid people have tried, I guess. This is a nice device, and the price is good. Sure, there are "edgier" and more fancy phones out there. This thing does 99% of what it needs to do, and does it fairly well. It will last at least a day on a charge, and is a decent machine. No, it will probably not play the latest, greatest, fanciest games all that well. That's not what it's meant to do. It's meant to be a good phone first. It should play games that aren't super high end pretty well. For really intense games, it will probably choke up. I don't game on the phone, though, so I don't care. For puzzle games, etc., I'm sure it's fine. The screen is good (even in sunlight), and is of decent size. Actually miss slightly smaller ones, but this one is mostly usable with one hand. It runs pretty smooth with 2GB RAM. Web browsing is decent, and it flips between a few apps pretty well. Time will tell, but the battery does seem to be good, as reviews say. Takes a long time to charge up, though, so it will need to be an overnight kind of thing which I'd bet most people do anyway. With medium use, it looks like it will easily last a day. If it ever gets Android 7.x, there are even more battery optimizing features built-in, so that would be really nice. Not holding my breath, but the word is that it should get 7.x in the near future. Overall, I'm pretty happy with this device. It is a nice upgrade from last phone. It is smooth running, long running, surprisingly lighter than I thought, and I'll get used to the slightly larger size. Makes reading a little easier anyway. Pros: - It's a good mid-range phone. - It runs smooth, and doesn't seem to get hot - The camera is OK. It should do well enough for random pictures. - It runs Android 6.x - and *should* get 7.x, but we'll see. - Long battery life. Much nicer than many other phones out there, especially in this price range - Price - you simply can't beat it for what you get - SD card slot. Easy to add a card for storing pictures etc. - Removable battery. What a nice thing to see. Not sure if replacements are out, or ever will be, but it's nice to see the choice - Moto notifications. Very used to these. Very convenient. - Very little "bloat" or junk. Nearly "stock" Android with no weird extra "skins" or other things that get in your way. The very few "Verizon" apps can be ignored or disabled if you want. - It's a Moto, even if Lenovo bought them out. That means it has a good radio chip in it. That means it probably has better reception than a lot of other brands, and that still matters in some places. Cons: - It's not the "best" phone in existence, it's a "mid-range" device. It's still better than a lot of others. - It doesn't have a 1080p or higher screen resolution, but the pixels are so small that the human eye can't see them anyway. - It doesn't have some features, such as NFC, or a fingerprint reader. Oh well. - It doesn't make you breakfast, but it could probably help you order food online. -...biggest con... it has a Snapdragon 410. This is already at least a yr. old chipset. It's not the latest. It's not the fastest. It is what it is. This one isn't great, but it's also not horrible by any means. It's efficient, and it handles "regular" things decently. It's an OK compromise for good battery life and usable performance. Overall - you can't beat this thing for the price. If you want to use it with another carrier, get the "unlocked" one. If you have Verizon (prepaid) and don't expect to need it on another provider, this is a great value, and it doesn't disappoint.

    Seems very good. Just wish I realized prepaid won't work on a regular plan unless it's been activated for a short time on a prepaid plan.

    This Moto G Play by Motorola is a great, inexpensive alternative to Samsung. It's certainly gives Samsung a run for the money.

    I like the phone and for the most part, the apps installed. However, they no longer use Assist which was a favorite for many people who used it while driving. It would read text messages and allow you to respond hands free. They now have Moto which is supposed to do the same thing. My phone has Moto but without any of the tools to make it work and I am unable to reinstall it. If you like Assist, you are out of luck.

    One of the nicest prepaid Android phones on the market. The screen size is perfect, not too big or too small. My wife loves it.
