I will start off by saying I have no interest in $1000+ cell phones – to me they are disposable devices that get replaced every few years. That said, this is the perfect phone for my purposes. The coverage (carrier dependent), audio, display quality and speed are perfect for my needs. I use the this as – wait for it – a phone – as well for texting and taking some pictures, mapping directions, etc.
This is my 4th or 5th Motorola phone, and I have always been happy with the value proposition. Even through my former carrier the Motorola phones have always had much less bloatware than, say Samsung (ugh) which loads up their phones with all kinds of nonsense. When you buy it unlocked it comes with even less bloatware, and you can delete or disable most of it.
It is much faster than my old phone, which one would expect, with 8MB of RAM, and 128MB of internal storage. There are several things I like about this phone, a couple being that it still has a headphone jack, and also it will take a micro SD card for additional storage. Both of these features are found on very few phones these days. There are 2 features that are unique to Motorola on the phones I have had, including this one, that are REALLY convenient. You can open the camera app just by twisting your wrist, and you can turn on the flashlight by a chopping motion – no screen to wake up or app to start up – brilliant really.
Also, the battery life (5000ma) is phenomenal. I can use it all day, leave it overnight, and it will still have plenty of charge the next day. I really only charge it every other day. I will note that I turn off as many background processes as I can, don’t watch movies on the phone (really?), and in general use it as a tool, not a brain-sucking toy (editorial comment :-). If you want a well functioning device and don’t want to spend huge dollars this phone may be right for you.

We have high end Android phones but one family tends to lose or break phones pretty frequently, so I’m not going to get that one a $900 phone. We got this one as a replacement device after the most recent incident (phone dropped in a lake). And it is remarkably fast and high quality. Moto has a nice, clean Android OS. Setup was very easy with all apps etc. quickly loaded from Play and photos etc. reloaded from the cloud. The phone performs great with only barely perceptible performance, screen, sound differences from my top end phone and a longer battery life. A really great phone at this price point.

Overall, the phone is a good value. Realistically, I think it is 3.5 stars and since I have to go with a whole star rating scale, I am giving it a “4”.
It seems to be a good budget phone. I had to upgrade due to an ancient version of Android on my old phone and very limited memory. The days of having an option to move apps to an SD card are long gone and 32GB of memory just doesn’t work when OS takes up almost 15GB.
Let’s move on to the things that matter:
– The Good
– Battery seems to last for a long time with an average usage pattern (easily 2-3 days). Yes, the phone is being used primarily as a communication device (voice calls, SMS and email messaging). Occasional video playback around 30% of the time.
– It is responsive and very fast on WiFi and 5G (big red) network.
– The “Different”
– It is big and bulky. I have upgraded from 5.2″ to 6.6″ screen. The screen is significantly larger, but the phone itself is thicker, too. One hand operation is no longer an option and definitely not practical.
– The display is brighter but for some reason seems blurry. I cannot find a comfortable balance between screen sharpness and brightness. I tried different display settings but I am still searching for the perfect (or even acceptable) balance.
– The camera
– Image quality is good for occasional use. I am not a professional content creator and find it good enough.
The phone was on sale and my impulse buying urge took the better of me. Am I disappointed? No, not really. I read the specs and for the most part I knew what I was getting into. However, if anyone is considering Moto G, take a look at Moto G Power. It seems to have a better display (at least on paper) and maybe a better overall product/value for a few more dollars (at the time of this review).
