Motorola Moto Z Play - User Reviews

  • Stucked at 6.0.1 how will I update to oreo? It cant detect oreo update via OTA

  • Can we install google camera in this

  • Great phone, it has served me well over 3 years. Eventually broke this month but all in all it was a good phone with a solid battery life. I will say the camera was ok and the mods were a gimmick but it lasted which is what matters.

  • My Moto Z Play (was, when I used it from 2017 and sold it on 2018), upgraded to Android Oreo, all worked fine only Google Music had problem at that time. It couldn’t detect any music files.

  • me and my wife using these phones for almost 3 years. still incredible battery life, 2 days. dropped dozens of times. Best phone I've ever had. just there isnt a proper replacement on the market with this kind of battery life. I got 4 days of use on it when i first got it. 25% a day. it was unreal.

  • Hi have been using this phone for more than 2.5 year. its still solid. battery still give a screen on time of 4.5 hour and more.. fell more than 100 time and not a single scratch on it still... finest mobile.

  • After 1.5 years of using moto zplay, fell for several times (7 to be exact) it suffered a crack and almost virtually broken glass on the front camera. It's battery swelled so much that the screen becomes convexly arched. Its battery stayed only for maximum 5 hours on standby and almost 2hrs or less when used.

  • I using this phone from 1.7 years still running smoothly no battery issues.fall more than 15 times no display damage.amazing mobile.i plan to buy same mobile same body material used by motto

  • Same here, have had mine for about 2 years now and it's the third Motorola I got. My previous ones I broke myself but this time Motorola did it for me. Probably switching a samsung a50 even tho I'm not sure if that holds up longer than 2 years.

  • Correction.... Moto App launcher Is updated and looks great, Moto gestures are improved and looks great. Google now launcher is removed.

  • Hey friends i am using this mobile for last 1 year, it's amazing but no native video call overall great phone.

  • Ok here is my opinion about Oreo update. Google Now Launcher is upgraded and looks and work great. Overall performance is getting better. Battery life is same. No problem with photos music etc. Upgrading is highly recommended :)

  • at least 2 times a day, depend on my activity on the phone.

  • Im struggling with battery life mostly goes of when it get to 50%

  • I came from a Galaxy Note 3, a Premium Smartphone, because of the Android updates and the battery of Moto Z Play. At first, I thought I would feel downgrade at Performance, since Note has a 800 line Snapdragon and Moto has a 600 line one, but it was the total reverse. The Moto Z Play not only has better performance, but also a perfect Camera, a nice Screen and a HUGE battery. I spend all day at school, and with Note, I used to go back home with 20%, now with Moto Z Play I never find myself below 70%. I really recommend this Smartphone, perfect to people that, like me, need battery All day to use Smartband, GPS and Bluethoot Headphones.

  • How often do you charge your phone

  • my moto Z play got battery issue recently, after using it for 2 years. the battery immediately drained when it's reach 50% usage and my phone can suddenly shut down without prior notice. well maybe the battery not reliable enough for more than 2 years, which is mean approximately 512 cycles of charging. same issue happen on my mother Moto M. I am not recommend motorola if you will use it for long time.

  • Using Z Play since April 2018, Awesome bettery life,no heat, perfect camera, updated to Oreo..😘 Highly recommended..

  • Currently enjoying! No problems encountered so far

  • Pretty sure that this phone doesn't have aptX, it is not listed in the aptX official website, and I can't get my headphones to connect using it.

  • Hi, No, there won't be any updates for the Z Play. I bought a Z Force myself last month. Its getting updates neither. But don't worry, these phones will function 100%!! Wish you lots of pleasure with your Z Play, enjoy it. Top Phone!!! 👍

  • I currently purchased this phone and it's awesome! Any security updates for this Moto Z Play? Their last security patch is August 1, 2018. Thanks.

  • how can i downgrade my phone from oreo to nougat? tia

  • Hey,i had the impression my kid peed on my moto z play, den the battery kind of got crazy.when put on charge, signals charging den after a while pops up de red question sign .And if turned on, showes battery chargin at full even when it isnt connected.videos and musics wont play neither does the speaker respond .this is like getting me crazy.tried restarting n resetting phone but to no avail

  • Try hard resetting your phone and clearing cache

  • I have moto z play running on marshmallow. I am facing a problem with its camera . The camera captures images after the flash so the flash light effect does not captured in night. Can anyone also facing this problem or I am the only one.

  • Here is how to update only (without formatting): After you update I will tell you how to format and clean cache

  • Hello...I'd like to know how to upgrade to marshmallow or nougat...how to clear cache effectively..pls advise...thanks

  • Update: Found a chance to re-format my phone and clear cache And i can confirm that clearing cache makes difference, Moto gestures works now fine, Battery is a little better but still not like Nougat. Animations stutter often unlike Nougat. But I liked the new Sound effects app and the new notification styles for music. No issues for me on detecting music in storage.

  • does it have projector

  • I have moto z play running on marshmallow 6.0.1 and I am not interesting in updating it coz I don' t feel any problem with it. Also getting awesome battery backup even on heavy usage. If anybody wants to downgrade their os from nougat or oreo to marshmallow then they can flash marshmallow rom on their smartphone.

  • I did factory reset and the problem of notification not coming got solved. Thanks

  • My Moto Z Play was fine in Oreo, no problem on notification, but problem on google Music. it couldn't detect any mp3 files on my phone and also microSD. For solution I think, downgrade software to Android Nougat 7.1 again.

  • After oreo update notifications are not coming, please if anyone has some solutions

  • Bad, The camera twist gesture takes ages to open, Battery backup is okay, but Nougat 7.1 was phenomenal (once I made 5 days with 1 charge) The animations are faster but some stuttering happens. Overall I regeret it. But there is one thing I didn't do after the update; I formatted the phone but didn't clear cache. I am thinking of reformatting the phone and clear cache

  • I had tried it. Overall is good but the problem was only Google Music won't recognise any my music files.

  • So anyone update it on Oreo ? Any new feedback are welcome.

  • From Indonesia. Yes, I know Pocophone F1. It is available in Indonesia region, many people in Facebook also buy and use this Pocophone F1. Yes, price is crazy. I haven't try it in a display Xiaomi center or retailer shops.

  • I'm thinking about buying poco F1 but its not available in my local market. Where are you from and did you put hands on it yet ? All YouTubers are getting crazy about it too and recommend it strongly.

  • I have Soundboost 1 and it works perfectly fine. By the way both do NOT withdraw any power from the phone to work.

  • Speaker Nicely loud, lacks some Bass but loud. For headphones: Dangerously loud, I don't recommend listening with headphones in noisy places.

  • I just bought the jbl soundboost 2 and it was truly awesome! But I noticed that the volume on my phone becomes slower. At 100% it doesnt sound like before, it's slow. Do you have any experiences about this too?

  • It is OK. I am good. I think maybe people prefer to choose another brand instead of BlackBerry Android. In Indonesia, the Aurora is cheap now. BlackBerry Android is not bad, I had tested. Yes, no many devices they released and some overpriced, but they BlackBerry Android still exist. While in people choose Windows Phone, I better suggest Android or iOS.

  • I'm laughing on blackberry not on you. Sorry if it hurts you.

  • What is the funny? I don't have budget, I have debts, should pay debts, high cost living, small salary and many thinking and stress. By the way BlackBerry Aurora is good, not bad.

  • Lol why blackberry !! And where are you from?

  • Just updated my moto z play droid edition to oreo and have not experienced any problems. In fact some problems that I had before have been resolved. In many ways it appears to be more efficient and battery life seems improved as well. Here is what I did to ensure no problems (after backing up phone and all essential programs): 1. Erased system cache 2. Reset to Factory 3. Restart phone and initiate as new phone 4. Update software to Oreo and then test phone to make sure all is working 5. Reset to Factory again 6. This time copy all data backed up from previous phone Good luck!

  • I use BlackBerry Aurora right now. :-)

  • It's a great phone and running strong on Nougat. I keep ignoring Oreo update when ever it pops up. What's your current phone ?

  • No, I didn't use it anymore. I sold it because need money. I once installed PowerAmp, it was trial, but very good in recognize music files. No new update before I sold it.

  • Are you still using moto z play ? If yes then did you receive any update or patch or security update after Oreo update ? If you install other music player then they recognize mp3 files ?

  • This phone is just awesome, battery backup SuperB, Performance SuperB, Camera and Video Awesome ... 9/10 is my rating ...

  • My Moto Z Play is okay, in sound quality, but the lack in Android Oreo 8.0 was, the Google Music can't recognize file music mp3 that stored in inside folder or outside folder.

  • I think that can't be done in Moto Z Pay running Nougat. When my Moto Z Play is in Oreo also I didn't see that menu.

  • Any one would you please share for sound quality in noisy place... Is it louder or just okay?

  • I am on single sim, and no sd card.

  • How to turn on Dark mode in Nougat ?

  • i want to know what is the battery backup of moto z play dual sim?

  • for me the z force for it has higher specs, that's all. you can watch reviews on yt also how it kills shamesung and iphone phones

  • which is more Worth to Buy....? Moto Z play Or Moto Z force...? And What is The Rason...?

  • I am on Nougat 7.1 and did some extreme tweaks for battery, With light usage I have been 4 days without charging and still 23 % .

  • I'm a heavy user for I'm playing lots of online games. On 8.0, I can charge twice a day on heavy usage. Turning ON the 4G/3G data, 50% screen brightness and while playing my favorite games like: Extreme landings, darness rises and shadowblood. Just recently i was on vaca and i left my phone at home on August 2 evening with 100% battery life with battery saver on. and when i came back on August 6 at 21:00 with lots of miss calls and txt messages. i noticed that the batt life was at 38%. that was pretty awesome! therefore batt life on 8.0 is just very fine. enjoy!

  • Thanks for your feed back. In my view if Oreo update is not working 100% on Moto Z play then its not worth it. I should stay on Nougat until any patch came to fix it.

  • I think maybe you need to stay on Android Nougat. My Moto Z Play was on Android Oreo 8.0. Performance was good, no lag, but there was one thing minus. It was the music player (Google Music) couldn't recognize on any mp3 fiels on my Moto Z Play, even the files outsie folder or inside Music folder or in microSD, every time I opened Google Music, no any files.

  • After using 1 year and 8 month almost i am really satisfied with this device . Condition are your network in your area must be strong . Don't use this device in heavy sun light specially for photography n video recording it's heat quickly. In indoor condition photos r not good enough . After Oreo update i don't think more difference in battery performance . It is as good as before updating . Overall I think this device is useful for calling , for watching youtube or movies 3 hours per day, for social media ful day,for listening music use another headphones. Thank you

  • battery performance at All Z play is Best device in the World

  • How is your user experience with Oreo now specially battery performance.

  • yes you can. but do a factory reset after updating it. Im using moto z play on oreo now.

  • But the phone was released in august 2016 lol

  • Should i update my moto Z play to Android 8.0 or not ?

  • No issues with XT1635-02 variant, not sure about others. If you get it, factory reset and don't install any silly apps just what is needed. I use mostly F-Droid apps and some Google apps, VLC, Netflix, etc work fine. If the phone was well cared for, it should still be like new with battery life beating new high end phones no problem.

  • XT1635-02 variant upgraded to 8.0 with no issues. Most people who complain probably have some incompatible app that is causing issues. I have two of them (my partner the other one) and both work identical with super awesome battery life and decent performance (SD625 is not the fastest but one of the most efficient). Camera module is decent.

  • Where are you from? So do you advise me Not to update? I am still on 7.1 Nougat.

  • Any known wide spread issues? I'm buying a used Moto Z Play. The first one. I had a Samsung Note 4 before and that had an issue with the emmc (local storage) and phone would restart randomly, turn off, etc. This has a class action on it. Then I had a LG G5. GPS will die on this model, on every unit. The screen is also prone to ghosting after you look at grey images. Anything I should know about the first Moto Z Play? Is there a testing tool like Samsungs *#0*# (dial on dialpad and tool launches)? Thanks!

  • Not happy, Did a 30 min download and almost an hour to install. Had great battery life previously 2-3 days, now lucky if i get 10 hours. not sure what they changed but it wasn't good.

  • i have bought z play and z force. battery are great for both phones. z force last for a day 5 sot, while z play last for 2 days 10 sot. camera for z force have excellent quality stabilized pictures and the display is very crisp, quick and snappy ui too. the battery and speaker mod are great bonus

  • Obtained this phone yesterday (they are still being sold in Ukraine), too bad there's no menu option to install Oreo right away - had to install a dozen of security patches and first upgrade from 6.0 to 7 and 7.1.1. But finally, the phone has 8.0 Oreo and it's very smooth. No battery drain observed so far - I suppose because I didn't install any apps before update. No battery recalibration has been done, too.

  • Got Oreo update yesterday took almost a full hour and apps run faster no changes in battery life no lags or overheating . Looks awesome been using this phone since January 2016 totally satisfied, except for the charging slot I solved it with wireless charge won't upgrade to z3 gonna use it until the AMOLED screen burns completely. Dropped it several times (with screen protector) and no screen crack. I can call this phone the best Moto since the legendary Moto G

  • Hey guys, My Moto z Play is on Android 7.1 and it is already awesome in this version Today I go prompted to update to 8.0 but I am not sure If should do it! Since My phone already works great and battery lasts 4 days (with help of some extreme permissions and background apps tweaks) You know the phrase: "if it is not broken don't fix it" ! So.…. Will I regret it if i did?

  • Probably you're getting 6 hours with continues browsing. It's fine, but with normal use I'm having 36 hours.

  • I bought z force first, I didn't satisfied with that because of battery life. Then I sold it and bought z play. It's awesome with battery, no complaints with performance but with camera only. New moto devices doesn't have good camera.

  • I received update from system update.

  • I didn't notice, working fine.

  • I've got it long time ago, everything working fine. I'm from Pakistan

  • Still waiting for Oreo update.

  • I didn't observe much for battery backup. By seeing in summary, battery life was fine, I have no complaint for battery.

  • Oreo update just today. notice the navigation button less responsive after update.

  • how u updated to oreo?

  • If u want good battery life go for moto z play, no lags are there normally though. Performance wise go for z force, though battery wont be good.

  • After updating to Oreo, data saver isn't working properly whether it is ON or OFF all apps get access to Internet. Anyone else having same problem?

  • I was using Droid Turbo 1, after vibration fault I decided to change. It was my favorite mobile due to it's performance specially battery was awesome. After that I tried Moto X Style, it was useless mobile. Worst battery timing, using LCD after LED is very hard. Then I switched to Moto Z Force, good mobile, great performance but again battery wasn't so good like turbo 1. Then finally today I switched to Moto Z Play, I can't say anything about performance right now but one thing I know is that, it's battery is awesome I'm loving it after Droid turbo finally I found a good mobile 😉 Motorola lover and Lenovo hater 😂

  • Hey how about battery performance, I am not getting more then 6hrs battery backup

  • Which should I go for Moto Z Play Dual SIM or Moto Z Force???

  • Will anyone buy Moto Power discarding all weather friend Moto Z Play ?

  • The internal memory is 32 GB, so the free memory is around 23 GB. As I know Moto Z Play is come with 32 GB memory, not 16 GB. You can't move apps to microSD.

  • Internal memory 16GB very less as almost 10gb for system and 5gb for apps. Can move apps to SD card?

  • Several days using Moto Z Play in Android Oreo. Overall is fine and good, display of menu is very good. But there is one thing I don't like from it, it is Google Music app. I downloaded mp3 file using my phone and store it in Ringtone folder, the Google Music didn't show the file. I moved the mp3 file then to inside folder Music, also not found in Google Music. Moved again to outside folder but still in internal memory, not found too in Google Music.

  • The guys that are losing battery got to remember your going to lose battery because some apps that are on your phone arent compatible with oreo. When we bought the phone it was running marshmallow. Do a factory reset and you will see same battery life as before.

  • So far I experienced Android Oreo on my Moto Z Play, no problem at all. Battery life is okay.

  • I am finding improvement in battery back up in the past few days which was draining fast after Oreo update. I am a moderate user and before oreo, my backup was up to 3 days. Backup was reduced to one and half days after this update which has now come back to almost normal level with the usage as before. I do not know whether this improvement is due to stabilising of oreo or Moto team has worked on it. Would like to know if anyone else is experiencing improvement in battery backup now.

  • Don't go to Oreo. It drastically decreas battery Life.

  • I update my Moto Z Play today to Android Oreo. Experience it till now so far I am very satisfy with the display, no more white background again. All backgrounds are set like wallpaper chosen, I also like the display of the lockscreen. It is not only show time adn date but also show battery life in blue circle.

  • Today I got the update to Android 8.0 on my moto z play XT1635-02, I'm from Argentina.

  • Malaysian unit finally received Oreo with April security patch today.

  • Thank you for the reply. So far I use Moto Z Play in Android Nougat 7.1.1 no problems. Overall work fine. Ever experienced, not sometimes, the phone little hang several seconds when in accessing apps (not all apps I guess). Indonesia region still no new update. I am still waiting.

  • OMG! im from the Philippines and I just got a notification now on oreo update. OK I wont update to oreo. thanks for the comments.

  • After Oreo update, my mobile battery percentage is gradually decreasing with using it.dont update Oreo

  • Battery performance of Moto Z Play is badly affected after 8.0 update since it is draining out fast. Battery was the strongest feature of this phone which MOTO's R & D needs to rectify as early as possible. A disappointed MOTO Z Play user.

  • Got my phone from Amazon a couple weeks ago, still waiting for Oreo. Nougat has so many problems, almost destroyed my phone. Hope new update comes asap :(

  • Guys, we have to understand and accept that after every OS release somethings are added and additional processes takes up some more processing and power. So battery life cannot be guaranteed or the same.

  • Oreo upgrade available on India. If you are in India and your Moto Z Play is India region, you will get new update notification. If you don't receive notification, just go to Settings and choose About then System Update. Other regions are still waiting Android Oreo coming.

  • If you bought it new, the phone came with the manual book and you also could find information via Google. It is Moto Mod support, so you could plug in using the a suitable Moto Style cover, sound JBL, Powerbank Incipio, etc.

  • Hello friend please How can I do my update on my Moto Z Play

  • Please the back of the phone what's does it use for am trying to search for what is use for but unfortunately I can't find anything. I need some help please.

  • Yes, even my phone battery and overall performance is digrated after upgrade to Oreo. Really bad experience after 2 years of use with this update

  • Today I updated my device naught to Oreo . Dont know why but little bit my battery drain fast compare to naught . It is surprise for me why there is no improve . Setting colour must be change white to black or dark colour .

  • I have one question to all moto z play users is that after the the oreo update does any one notice that the naviation bars button are changing their place from slight left to right after each lock screen on and off because I am facing the problem it is pretty wierd.

  • ok bro, and i figure out my problem ,yes the problem is with my instagram app not the os and now i am so happy

  • Obviously you have a problem with your apps or your hardware, But not with os Oreo,

  • I used this device 16.months now from 2 days I have some issues my device battery drain fast 80% to 12 % within 2 hours without use is it battery problem or any app problem

  • 16 month used .From 2 days I face some issues in my device battery drain fast . And charging period is also increase . I don't know what is exact problem . Plz tell me how I will solve this . Is my device battery have to change or any other issues is their .

  • Camera focus is bad ND facing couple of bugs after updating to orea over all battery backup is fantastic

  • How is the camera and battery performance after oreo update? Is it still worth buying now?

  • Proud to be fan no. 300 for the phone 🙂

  • is any one playing modern combat 5 on android

  • Philippines has no oreo yet. I'll update once i have upgraded. thank you

  • yes it really happening with me .are you have any solution for me ,please sugest and after update my volume button are not working.

  • please share your oreo experience here. thanks

  • please do. im also excited for oreo. thanks

  • seriously? this is motorola. this isnt samsung or iphone.

  • G6 Plus is not released in the US so nevermind it and the G6. 5.7" with a SD450 and 3000mah. And no moto mods.

  • 5.9" screen with a 3000mah vs 5.5" with a 3500mah plus moto modz is where I'm looking at and the price of course.

  • dont upgrade to oreo it is very buggy. and after update my volume is not working ,and I also factor reset but problem is not solved.camera problem,battrey is drain rapidly. on 400mb ram left free. stay on nogut.

  • Purchased 3 with the speaker and camera and projector all three malfunctioned 1yr 1 month Motorola refused to cover these are bad phone .two drop having cases on them 10 inches screen blacked out other would not charge screen glitched .never have I seen such poor phones and such poor customer servive

  • India

  • Got the sweet Oreo but not having data to download it...I post my review after Oreo tommorow...!

  • Which country?

  • Got Oreo .. its so sweet

  • After Oreo update,best User interface.direct notification reply, better battery performance,From LTE to LTE+ ,dialpad colour change,Moto the great........

  • Depends on you. If you think RAM 3 GB is not enough for your daily use, I would say Motorola G6 Plus will be your choice. Just wait till it released officially.

  • Nice. In Indonesia region, Oreo update has not available yet.

  • Today I got Oreo update for Moto z play.Best phone I used till date.

  • G6 will have newer and better moto gestures, if you value those.

  • Eye rolls. Moto better provide at least a new security patch after the g6 is announced. It had been receiving monthly patches up until last December, where things came once every two months now.

  • i suggest wait for the G6.

  • I'm asking either to wait for the g6 plus or just buy a Z Play now.

  • Sounds good!

  • This phone or Z Force or G6 Plus?

  • It's completely different Big improvement, amazing

  • Has anyone downloaded the new moto camera app on z play? Is so, any improvements?

  • I've been using this phone for almost 2 yrs now and I'm so satisfied and happy with it. I'm a heavy user and bat life last for more than a day. Camera is very good, the color reproduction, aperture etc. the front cam also is impressive. This is truly value for money. I think this is my last phone. lol

  • Using Moto Z Play for the past 16 months. With moderate use, battery lasts up to three days. Camera is good, I am using snap app from Google Play which is giving me very good photographs and videos switching to night mode in poor light. Camera is vastly improved with the latest update a few days back. I am not planning to buy a new mobile in 2018 as this one is giving me excellent service. Waiting for Oreo 8 update which we may get this month only.

  • It is very good device . I used almost 16 months . Very good battery life. Camera is so so. But performance is good for watching video and download you tube video. But 2018 u have to go another one like mi 7 or moto x4

  • I think it's just ok. The battery on my z play is well used so lucky if I get 4 hours of screen on time. I personally thing that the worst part of this phone is the hardware. What I mean by this is the besil and also the thickness of it! And also the camera hump is WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY TOO BIG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And the besil looks so so old!

  • Did you get the sim tary removing tool with the box . Use it

  • yaa..it's worth, especially after the final price

  • My sim card slot wouldn't open

  • In my opinion yes, I am still using it. So far it is good, no problem at all. Battery life is also very good.

  • is this phone still worth in 2018.. planning to buy it tho

  • 22 March 2018 I received new update, Android 7.1.1 security patch February 2018. It was around 27 MB only. I think after this update, the next will be Oreo update.

  • I purchased Moto Z Play it works perfectly but some days it not work well. Firstly, I can't turn on front flash and headphone slot complaint

  • Turns out it was a mistake. Chinese version did receive it, but I only received Feb security patch here in Malaysia. Sorry.

  • Have you received Oreo update?

  • Sim crd might not b insrted prprly...reinsert n restart it.

  • Oreo update has been rolled out in Chinese model, and here in Malaysia.

  • No new update so far, the last update I accepted is Nougat 7.1.1 with security patched December 2017. So far, 2 months more I use Moto Z Play, this phone works very well and battery performance is very good, charging speed is very good, fast, finished charged in less than 110 minutes. App drawer display looks simple, with white background, list of apps is displayed from top to bottom. But, there is a lack of this phone (cons), the file manager can't to unzip a zip file. I had tried unzip game file .zip, it done without result. So I use WinZip apps, it works good. Hmm, the permission thing also complicated I thing, for example I unzip a zip file using WinZip, put the unzip file to microSD storage folder, it always tells user by showing pop up to grant permission for SD card directory. But, every time I select of path or folder (inside folder), select the place to be placed for unzipped file, it always failed. Complicated permission things on Android, since Marshmallows. It is very different with Sony Xperia Z2 based on Android Lollipop 5.0 that can do that without need grant permission things.

  • So far no problem. I have been using this phone for almost 3 months. No problem at all.

  • I frequently use GPS for bike, it is accurately enough in my my Moto Z Play. Usually I use Waze for navigation, it works best for me.

  • How to turn off factory mode in Moto z play? Sim cards are not working in my Moto

  • The location is good, anyways, is very rare not to showing your location ... i mean, do you want precission of x

  • check for minor crack under a good light. It happens that sometimes inner LCD cracks easily with little force.

  • Been using Z Play since December 2016 and still loving it. The Incipio mod is a great addition and my phone fell off several times with no screen damage. It feels kinda big for small hands beware. Waiting for Oreo.

  • Hello, can anyone tell me how is the gps performance, reliability and accurracy? Since it only has A-GPS but no GLONASS or BDS, its important to me that this phone can locate me precisely.

  • Has anyone ever had their phone go to full black screen

  • Don't understand. If you mean RAM, my Moto Z Play usually has around 600 MB free of RAM.

  • whats ram hz?

  • My Moto Z Play has the latest update of software, it is Android 7.1.1 security patched December 2017.

  • moto z play is a good phone kinda slow sometimes but amazing camera although i do dislike the glass back the big camera and usb spot on the back of the phone making it kinda ugly but other then that 100% worth the money i bought my moto z play used and its still good i traded 195 bucks + my asus zefone 3 for it do y'all think it wasa good trade. and i have nothing againt the asus but it was a little slow and my sim with freedom did not work with it so ya good trade i find

  • I think Moto Z Play will be a good upgrade for X Play. Much better chipset (higher clocked CPU, newer GPU, smaller thus more efficient process node), better camera (larger pixel size, 4K video recording), better battery life thanks to the chipset, newer Android version among other things. Not forgetting the Moto Mods expandability.

  • I used Moto x play for well over 1 year..it was a true beast with stock Android and battery..after seeing z play the specs are also good so I upgraded to z play...and I realized that I'm not missing anything from x play that was all present in z play...and at last the BATTERY is a BEST........ Using it over 10 months now....... Slightly better than x play....!

  • After Moto Z Play, you can see Moto Z2 Play. It is good too, more pricey. I also satisfy with Moto Z Play

  • Hello... I currently have the Moto X Play (had it for exactly 25 months, best phone I EVER had) and I'm not a phone geek so can someone help me understand why Motorola or Lenovo is now making phones not nearly as good (from my point of view anyway)? I was looking for a new phone since my Moto X Play is starting to slow down enough that it annoys me and it serves as my computer as well, I do everything on it... I'm looking at other Moto phones like the Z Play and and G5 and others and the specs just aren't as good. Whyy?? I love this phone, the battery is the best at around 3630 mAh, great camera and generally a very simple pleasant phone. After 2 years, I can still go most of the day without charging it! I can't find anything else like that with Motorola... Why downgrade? Am I missing something??

  • I had updated my Moto Z Play to Android 7.1.1 security patch Sept 2017. My Moto Z Play hotspot tethering can connect other device.

  • Moto Z Play. Juat be careful of the scratch-prone glass back. Use the provided back cover to protect it.

  • Motorola is owned by Lenovo, so it's the same.

  • Moto z play

  • I mean good gaming performance

  • I want to change my galaxy s5 to a new phone but which one is better. Moto z play or moto g5s plus. I need a phone which has a good battery life, good build quality, good camera quality, good camera performance, and a dual sim.

  • Lenevo moto z play and motorola moto z play are the same ??? or are 2 different phones ??? because i can't find anywhere. thank you

  • only phone better than this is the Moto Z force, it has same big battery plus a camera with optical image stabilization. saddens not available outside US.

  • Is that the bug, I had downloaded the software but haven't install it yet.

  • New update available on my Moto Z Play, it is Android 7.1.1. The highlight are: ENHANCEMENTS This update introduces changes including the following: Android™ 7.1.1 Nougat: many enhancements including new multitasking features, more efficient notification controls and improved data saver and battery features. Video calling: Duo is a one-to-one video calling app for everyone - designed to be simple, reliable and fun so you never miss a moment.

Launch actions on your favourite apps by simply pressing and holding the app icon. (It requires app compatibility). Moto Mods™ support: updates the Moto Mods platform to the version 2.0.

  • Definitely Moto z Play. I rate this product's 10/10. There is no competition between Z Play & A5, Moto Z Play also have a finest battery in Android World. Sorry for my bad english.

  • Moto Z Play

  • I have update to 7.1.1 but now mobile hotspot not working.. . Connecting to my laptop but limited net showing,plz any body give me solution,

  • I updated 7.1.1 but now my mobile hotspot Does not work, conecting my laptop but showing limited net.. Plz Any body give me solutions

  • Thanks for the help. As you said pure android experience and larger screen makes moto z favourite.

  • Nice, my device is still Android 7.0, it still very good for my daily use.

  • Both have good specs. Samsung A5 2017 is more expensive than Moto Z Play. For me, Moto Z Play would be better, cheaper and pure Android apps.

  • I think you will appreciate Z Play's slightly larger screen more for those two main purposes. And the battery is expandable through Moto Mod, you can browse the net and play games to your heart content.

  • Can anyone tell me which is the better phone between samsung a5 2017 and moto z play in overall performance? I'm unable to decide with these 2 phones.

  • Can anyone answer which is better between moto z play and samsung a5 2017?Also which phone would be better for average gaming and browsing purposes?

  • Great news. Not available in India so far but hopefully in a month's time.

  • Finally this device getting updated to Oreo via Soak test

  • I update my Moto Z Play to Android 7.0 security patch 1 March 2017, so far no problem at all. And I also don't face camera app error again.

  • SuperSu is very much compatible with Moto Z Play installed by many users without facing any problem. After reading your comment I am pretty sure that you are trolling. This is the best ever phone which is giving me excellent service for more than one year. So, troll somewhere else.

  • Sorry I misunderstood I thought u talking about network signal, not battery

  • This is a such a crappy phone that I can't tell The phone has got rooting problems it cannot install SuperSU and can only use magisk If you forcefully install SuperSU it might get bricked Then if you downgrade this phone into previous version then also gets brick Simple twrp won't work,you have to use a modded twrp. Before buying I thought it would be easy for this phone to enable root access as it runs stock android I won't recommend this phone if anyone has an intention of rooting it in future

  • Does it support wireless charging??

  • Try to remove sim card, then restart without sim, then insert the Sim , finally restart. That's it. I hope this will help

  • Maybe your charger adaptor is broken? Or try replace the battery

  • When Android Oreo 8.0 will arrive to Moto Z play.... Any clue

  • After one year fabulas performance with this battery beast i found Moto z play charger issue. While charging device battery signal apear empty. I dont know why this happening i try reset phone but problem persist. Battery does not charge with rapidly with charger. Anyone has solution for this problem please help me.

  • Moto z play best phone and no any problems

  • Black

  • I update my Moto Z Play to Android Nougat 7.0 security patched 1 Feruary 2017. So far no problems I found and also I don't face camera error please restart. Let's see if there is bug again later after several months use.

  • Great phone only thing I was not expecting is the headphones are low quality and charger is great but different (you can't use any other charger other then company provided) implying you need to carry your charger always if traveling ...on positive note battery is oosam it performs far more better then I expected it's vooping more then 30 hours flat even though I downloaded 32 apps up update my new phone system update and logging in new using savaan all the time camera continuously. Cons... 1. Charger is must in case u are using phone for more then 24hrs (i mean a type c charger ) regular charger won't work. But battery back 24 hrs for sure even under heavy usage 2. FM like any other high end phone 3. U need a cover back glass scratches are abundant even though front glass is great. 4. U need a cover the back panal it tends to slip away. Pros 1. Best in class and higher class battery back up. 2. Best in class speed and performance 3. Great sensors almost everything covered 4. Type C Charger add Type-C to USB so now you can add mouse Keyboard and Pendrive to your phone (Tried Hard Disc but it did not support it powered the hard disc but did not show in file manager)

  • When my Moto Z Play running Android 6.0.1 build number MPNS24.104-44-10, I've have once experienced can't operate camera apps, it was said, "error, please restart camera". So, I did restart my phone, and the phone camera works normally again. Today, I do update my phone again to build number MPNS24.104-44-16, this is the third time I do update. It is still based on Android 6.0.1. Next the Android Nougat, I haven't download. Hope no problem with camera restart again.

  • Used it for 3 days now, bought it white color option. So far this Moto Z Play is very good, i like, battery life is impressive, no lag. internet, calling, streaming, camera fast, work fine. The charging is very fast, Turbo charger comes in the box. This Moto Z Play dones't has LED notification, so the LCD will show time, notification every time your hand wave near the above of the phone. When the phone is being charged, no light, no sound, and no sound after 100%. Overall, it is the best Android smartphone that I ever used.

  • Go for z2 play still has good battery better camera and aluminium body. So... It would be better.

  • I say z2 play as battery still great also better camera and aslo aluminium body. So... I think get z2 play

  • Just bought this phone 2 weeks ago and I really must say it has excellent battery life and very fast and smooth user interface (the nearly pure android is really beautiful), the loud speaker is very clear and loud enough, the screen is amazing in the sun, very fast fingerprint. and really nice hand gestures by motorola. my only weak point is the camera images are some times very soft and smooth

  • no, my phone is pink ;)

  • Nope. Great battery life on nougat too.

  • I would list 3 things in favor of the Moto Moto = clean, smooth Android, and it might get Oreo. Z = expandability via Moto Mods Play = the version with superb battery life Additionally, there's the AMOLED screen too, if you prefer that over LCD. Cheers!

  • Is your phone white or black?

  • honor 6x vs moto z play

  • It's very easy each one of them have good advantage & U choose If u looking for better battery go for MOTO Z PLAY. If u looking for better camera go for MOTO Z 2 play.

  • Guys, I need your advice now. If I were to buy and choose among the two, Moto Z Play or the newer Moto Z2 Play? Thanks in advance.

  • The Moto Z Play.

  • Do you mean Moto Z Play or HTC U11? In any case, please search the XDA Developers' forum where the people over there rate wifi reception of various devices.

  • there are issue battery draining on nougat?

  • How about Wi-Fi signal?

  • Today I got new update patch 118-22-2-8 any positive changes if any body get it plz tell me . When Oreo update for moto z play waiting yaar . I m using this device since January 2017 great experience no lag issue best for battery life i really impressed

  • Does anyone received November security patch

  • Moto Z Play's battery nails it for me. But I suggest you to take a look at HTC U11 as well. It has earned generally favorable reviews around the tech world. Impressive device.

  • Moto Z Play or Moto Z2 Play?

  • Moto Z Play or S7 Edge?

  • How about the WiFi signal of this phone? Is it strong or what? Thanks to all who will answer.

  • I have owned this phone since July of this year and I must say, I am very impressed with this phone. I love it and have had no issues with it so far outside of the occasional glitch, but that happens with any OS. The battery life is phenomenal and with the battery mod, it has made charging my phone not a worry at all. I would recommend this phone to anyone looking for a budget smart phone with a decent screen and EXCELLENT battery life.

  • When you google samsung s3 crack screen you find a lot thats normal, but z play crack it isnt. Pls read manual to how use amartphone

  • Moto Z Play is an excellent phone with top class battery, high average camera and gaming experience. During daylight Z PLAY camera competes with any I phone and top Samsung phones but low light performance is equally good. I have tried various third party apps available in play store. I found Snap camera app night mode best for Z play as photos taken even in street light appeared as if taken during daytime with no noise. Night time videos with same app beat Samsung 7 Edge hands down. Open camera app photos taken during daylight takes care of lack of OIS. One has to try both apps to see the remarkable difference it makes in both still photos and video performances. Don't condemn Motorola with your experience which appear to be trolling to me. Some trollers are writing fake views about draining of battery after 7.1.1 and other security update. In fact, after the first mentioned update battery backup has increased considerably which has been reported by many bloggers. After 8 or Oreo update expected in a month or two, battery performance will further increase.

  • Moto Z Play,,,,,Disppointed,,,,camera does not work,,in for repair twice,,,can't fix ,,,,out of service two months,,,customer service is terrible,,,should have bought an I-Phone...do not recommend Motorola,, once a leader now ,,,,not even close,,,,junk !

  • Me to.. I have the same problem.. And it shot down by him self to not even to touching the phone...

  • How about the camera? Is it better than your older g4?

  • Need an adapter that conver micro usb to type c

  • so true! having this moto z play for quite a while now and i am so loving it. not even an iphone x or bezelesa phones interests me. z plays battery life and androids cuStomizable homescreen shortcuts, are just too amazing and practical to everyday. for me front fingerprint sensor also suits me, loving the mods too+++:D

  • I was using samsung flagship Galaxy s6 edge for a year and I was too frustrated due to its pathetic battery life(had to charge 3 times a day). Then I moved to Moto Z play and I am amazed by the performance of a $400 phone. The battery life is really good and gives a full day without charging for a heavy user like me. After 1 years of usage the phone is still very responsive and never hangs. I can't think to use any other phone not even Iphone.

  • Hi, yes it tends to get heatup but try keeping the device on a hard surface rather than keeping on bed or sofa... This will make ur device lot less heated as compared...

  • Hi, dual app mode can b done by switching the device in the guest mode...

  • Hi, already received update of October 10days before.

  • I happened reverse to me. After the October Update, my battery life improve around 5 to 10 percent and at the end of the day i have left around 55 to 60 percent battery left, previously at the end of the day i mostly got 48 percent left at the end of the day. So improvement in my case.

  • Yesterday I install Latest patch i.e. 118-22-2-3 . I have little issue with battery little bit drain fast compare before instlallation . Is any body like this or other issues please tell me . I installed latest security patch .

  • Anybody has received October security patch on your mobile. And after that any problems did you noticed

  • Can anyone confirm me whether Moto Z Play supports Dual Apps Profile or not?

  • Without dropping it? How?

  • I just bought one 3 weeks ago and I'm very happy with it. I love Motorola mid range devices, I previously had the Motorola XPlay is still works with a cracked screen I'm planning to unlock it and repair it. These phones are pure Android so it has the perfect Android experience. Crisp screen, easy to use, with a normal Chip not as powerful but good enough for me. It looks very clean and elegant and up to date is working fine without lags or anything. Battery life is ridiculous and the Mods are fun. Camera is sub par on this phone, that's a down side, and also is a thick heavy phone, I guess they have to hide that powerful battery some place.

  • Dude don't post rubbish like this. I brought moto z play black on last nov 2016 (1 yr) from flipkart ,now upgraded to 7.1.1. Dude first of all you never had this device u r just trolling. This is ma 1 yr experience with ma moto z play .. BEST SMARTPHONE IN ITS PRICE RANGE. Battery performance is outstanding, no lags, no hangs . No screen cracks , have couple of dents in the corners of the aluminum frame. CPU performance is also best in class . I played asphalt 8, asphalt xtreme, real racing 3 etc no lags . Coming to camera performance only downside is the low light performance and no 4k video stabilization (only full hd video stabilization) but that's ok still best in class and the selfie cam with flash is superb

  • Yeah bro!.. Completely funny.....!

  • You bought three Z Play at a time ?? Screens of two cracked automatically within a week without dropping them ??? Buddy, think of some better ways of trolling which should at least look genuine...

  • bought three Z Play from Verizon. I was at work out of town, usually where there is no signal. Within a week, one screen cracked and the second screen cracked 2 days after that. I called to let them know (Verizon) and they said cant do anything for you unless they are returned within 14 days. I dont know which is worse, couphing up the 1800 bill to verizon or having two broken phones i could have lied about, got insurance on em and turned them in. i guess thatsb i get for being honest.

  • truly agreed....a beast for battery and performance #using for 9 months till now.....!

  • I personally dont like samsung mid range phones, becasue they are of low quality and missing some sensors. For me, Moto Z play is a Perfect package and i dont see any shortcoming in this set, even though i am using it for long time now. It is updating regularly after every 2 months. and getting better and better in each update. I can say just go for Moto Z play, you will feel you are having a flagship grade phone

  • Oh my God.!I'm in love with this beast since 5 months of use..,I played asphalt 8 for over 6 hours and the screen on time was 8 hours....!and still 12 percentage remaining with casual Facebook,checking email, YouTube Etc....,! #A TRUE BATTERY BEAST...!NOTHING CAN BEAT

  • moto z good slim mobile good battry perfect desgin

  • Hey Heating is very normal when we charge with fast charger. Don't worry about it.

  • Awesome mobile

  • Yes iam in Egypt

  • Does anyone received or updated to September security patch...?

  • Yes iam sorry It's my mistake. My comment for Anonymous, 20 Oct 2017

  • You should read my comment properly. Post your comment to Anonymous 20 Oct.

  • J7 pro is not even a mobile to compare with this beast...Samsung always sucks......()laggy Sammy against pure stock Android with fluid performance....long live Moto!....not Lenovo....🖕

  • It's perfect battery backup after 7.1 . May u have problem with your device!!!

  • After 7.1.1 update, battery backup has actually increased. I am a moderate user and was getting two days battery backup earlier but after this update it has increased by 16 hrs.

  • Pathetic battery life after nougat 7.1.1

  • There's no time table.yet But I think before end of year

  • that is amazing phone MOTO Z PALY-- but when i put in Trubo Charger then will come overheating - i ask to someone that is normail for fast cahrging--now i am waitin g new update Andriod oreo 8.0-- this update is will totally changed your phone-- any one have idea when will update 8.0 on Moto z play

  • Can u compare this phone with j7 pro

  • its good phone but no radio and voice recorder that's disappointed me lots....

  • Thank you Friend.. :)

  • yes. it will forever sadden me. :(

  • If u want a true battery beast and snappy performance and promise of update to Oreo go for z play... Using for 9 months

  • Hi friends, I am planning to buy a phone in the budget 15000 - 22000 INR. Kindly help in finalizing the choice between Moto GS+ 64 GB, 4 GB RAM (costing 16000 INR) and Moto Z play: 32 GB, 3GB RAM (costing 22000) in india. Thank you, Joe

  • no radio is the deal breaker

  • i just love this phone, i have one problem tho...i want to ship this phone to Kenya what are the easiest procedures for me?

  • Best ever phone...truly... After 7.1.1 more ultra beast.... performance 10/10, battery 10/10... Using since 3month with 3g always on policy :)...but it's not disappoint me... currently using more than 130 apps but no lagging no hanging...it's really amazing phone...highly recommended...m using American DROID version...backside camera flap with DROID logo. truly beast ultra performance phone

  • From 24 hours of using (wifi, games, phone scanning at time-to-time checking AND, Say-to-day SYSTEM UPDATING UNPLUGGED) it still leaves me 40% of battery. A true beast!

  • Agree with your comment that battery back up has increased after update to 7.1.1 and which will increase further after next update 8.0 Oreo. Z Play is still the best mobile.

  • Using this beast for almost 9 months system up to date Android 7.1.1 smooth and flagship level experience battery is a true beast for this mobile many people say battery drains after nougat update but that's not true it keeps on increasing almost 10 hours screen on time since I bought this mobile at first......true honest opinion by z play user highly recommended......!

  • No it doesn't.

  • Does it contain a LED notification light?

  • Just get Nova Launcher. Great UI

  • 13 hours estimated left (35% remaining) on battery after 24 hours use, of which 4.75 hours was screen on time. Amazing battery on this phone! Android 7.1.1

  • It always happens to me. :(

  • I don't have any problem with with fb messenger when take pics

  • Hi, I just bought my Z play last night, the problem is, when I tried to capture image via FB messenger, camera started to get error and asked me to restart the camera. After restarting the phone itself, camera worked again. But when i tried again to capture to send image tru FB msgr, camera got error again. Please somebody help me to fix this issue. thank you

  • After connecting the phone via usb pull down the notification on the phone , select usb option , select media transfer option , then u can open the phone icon in ur pc and it will show phone and sd card memory (if equipped)

  • How's the battery life after nougat 7.1.1

  • Week 2 Review - Coming from a LG-G4 Positives: - Fantastic Battery Life - 8 core processor runs app that previous phone struggled with - Front facing Flash - Aluminum Frame makes it very sturdy - Good feel in hand, better so than the LG - The moto actions are a nice touch, especially the flashlight - Fast Charge - Great looking phone IMO Negatives: - Moto User Interface is not near as nice as LGs. LGs was much more intuative, Motos takes more steps to perform simple tasks, such as media volume adjustment, alarm adjustment, settings adjustments, etc. - I lost some screen resolution on the change. - Also downgraded from 8 to 5 mp camera on the from facing - No integrated or factory gallery...have to use Googles (not a fan) - Similar widgets take up more screen space on Moto than did on LG (possible result of less resolution?) - Main complaint is the UI though, just not as friendly as other manufacturers that I have had. Overall: - Increase in hardware is worth the sacrifice in software (for me) - Looking forward to the motomods, especially the battery - Would buy again

  • monsterous battery life! as all phones should be. partner with jbl speaker mod, listening to music and watching videos is a lot more enjoyable with quality sound without juicing down the phone battery. act as phone stand is a big plus too. perfect buy!!

  • I have this phone 2 weeks already. The problem which I experience is that I can not connect the phone to my laptop. I connect it with USB cable, laptop recognize it, the icon of the phone comes, but I can not open it. Do I need some special drivers installed on the laptop ? I will appreciate any help on this issue .

  • I have not faced any of the eight problems listed by you during my ten months usage. Why don't you return it being a defective piece or just trolling ? This is one of the best buy which beats many recent releases and am totally satisfied with its performance in all departments.

  • Out of the box, I liked the Moto Z Play. The size is larger than the Moto G3 I upgraded from, which was a plus for me as I use my phone for a lot of different things. I also loved the rapid charge and the longer battery life, which was the chief (and probably only) complaint I had with the Moto G3. I was constantly charging my previous phone. Depending on usage, it will stay charged a full 24-48 hours. It also takes beautiful pictures, even with the rear-facing camera...which is a bonus. But that's where my praises for this phone end. 1. The rapid charger already seems to be failing. With minimal charger usage (I just purchased the phone about a month ago), it sometimes falls right out of the phone. Though it can be inserted backward or forward facing (unlike the old standard chargers), it only works in one direction now. 2. On the topic of the charger, while the rapid charge is great, finding a spare or a car charger has been challenging. 3. Constant software updates. I get the software update notice 15+ times per day, despite doing it because I was sick of the message. The only difference was the horrid new boot animation, which I loathe. And it plays through it twice every time I start the phone. 4. Dropped calls. I know it is not my provider, as my husband has the same service and never drops calls. I never dropped calls with my Moto X or Moto G3. Sometimes it shows "no cellular service" when my husband has service in the same exact places. My previous Moto phones never did that. 5. Sometimes I have to power off the phone and power it back on if I leave a wi-fi network and am on a cellular network to get the phone to "see" the cellular network. Talk about frustrating and time consuming, not to mention I have to endure that horrid boot animation again, and the software update notice again. 6. The micro SD does not come in the phone, and is quite flimsy. The tiny tray where it is inserted is a nightmare to get open. If you've never dealt with a micro SD card before, especially a flimsy one, you could end up easily breaking the phone or snapping the card. 7. Battery saver mode, which I do occasionally use even with the long-lasting battery the Moto Z Play offers, is not a simple switch on action from the drop-down menu at the top of the screen. You actually have to go into settings to turn it on unless the phone prompts you itself with the option...and it often does not. 8. Speaking of settings, turning the Moto Z Play all the way down puts it into Do Not Disturb mode automatically. I hate this. With my previous Moto, I kept the phone on silent at night, but it still vibrated. So, I either have the option of listening to notifications from my apps all night long, or potentially missing an important call. Overall, it's a pretty phone that takes very nice pictures and has the best battery life of any phone I've ever had, but it has a world of issues. Would I buy it again? No.

  • Updating to Oreo will help. But ur problem not with update, u have to clear cache or soft reset.

  • Thanks a lot dude I updated to 7.1.1

  • After all the updates my phone's battery was insane ,I updated to latest 7.1.1

  • Is Oreo update solve my problem?

  • Sure .. u will get 7.1.1 after 7

  • It's some wat avg .. i don't use Loyd speakers much ..I use skull candy headset most for media

  • Flip down the screen wen u r not using the device at night in bed . Bcoz if not the glance screen will work all the time and doze mode will not work effectively

  • Switch on selfie cam . Set ON the flash on the top middle of the screen n click the cam then the selfie flash will light up

  • Almost 9 months i used this device . It fully satisfied me. I don't use very heavily . But my calling 1 hour watching video n pictures 2 hours, and surfing n chatting 1 hour ., Per day I download any video or films around 500 to 700 mb and my device battery remains 50% at night . Camera quality in day light good but in door poor not so effective. Slightly slippery phone i recommend must use back cover . Thank you. It's my honest opinion. This device i will use at list 2 n half year.

  • This phone is wonderful, excellent battery, no heating. Your phone may be has something wrong. You just do clear cache If not do soft reset

  • how selfie flash works? anyone tell me plz

  • I bought this mobile recently. After open and switch on the mobile, it asked to update software 5 time's (marshmallow to 7.0 and 7.1.1). After update of software battery will decrease gradually ( at night 11pm battery percentage was 💯, and after wokup 7 am it decreased to 71%). While charging mobile also heating like hell. Battery draining and heating is my problems with mobile.. please give me solution for these problems. Thank you

  • The phone does not have its own gallery, has to install a third party gallery. Also, the phone gets heated while charging.There are many other minor issues.

  • I switched to Moto Z play from HTC one around 2 months ago. The pros: Marvelous battery with screen on time exceeding 7 hrs.. Performance is superb with the stock Android interface. Super amolid display is nice. Moto mods are a plus although I didn't use yet. Turbocharge is really handy when u are in short of time. However there are some things that I didn't like In my opinion Moto Z play cons include: - Vibration very weak as compared to HTC one (HTC vibration was so strong that I would set my alarm only on vibration and still wake even if z phone is at z end of z room, while in Moto Z play vibration is so weak that u barely feel it event when it's on your pocket). - Call log lacks lots of functionality of HTC one which is much better. - Adaptive screen brightness is awful. Causes abrupt change in brightness with slight change in illumination which is really annoying. The camera is decent.

  • Last thing, how about the sound quality? loudness of alarms, loudspeakers, etc. tia :)

  • I purchased moto z play yesterday at first it's asking nougat 7. 0 and if i after installing that the nougat 7. 1. 1 available or not

  • So your Moto Z Play died just from humidity. Extremely sorry to hear about this freak death, pl accept my condolences. Buddy, you are free to troll but use your mind before writing such illogical stuff.

  • Please tell me yaar galaxy note 4 and moto z play which one is better .i want to buy good camera and good battery and smooth.please suggest me.

  • I purchased one of these phone thinking it looked good and it died after six months of regular use. I tried to get it repaired under warranty and it came back with a "liquid damage" excuse for no repair. This phone is in no way water proof or water resistant in routine everyday use ... I assume the liquid damage was everyday humidity. Sorry, but I'll never buy Motorola again and I can't recommend this phone to anyone.

  • Moto Z Play will receive Android 8.0 Oreo Update very soon. This will have added features of increasing speed, longer battery life, smart text selection, customizable notification, split screen, password support and latest Google Play protection for security. No need to purchase latest models, this will compete with the best.

  • Superb in this price range.. can record 4k ,. Selfie flash etc

  • how about the quality of the camera? :)

  • got one from amazon for ₹20000 ($312). looks like a great deal. looking forward to delivery within a couple of days. excited.

  • I recently purchased Moto Z play from Home shopping Network online store for 36,499/- Rs. Also there is another deal in SHop Hive where you can get the Mobile phone with free JBL Sound Boost Mod free, Total price 38,999/- Rs. In some sites its available with a free Low level Lenovo phone, and price was aound 40K Rs. Its up to you. For me, this phone is a must buy, it works like any flagship phone, with Motorola Quality and software optimization. You can't see any difference of performance in this Phone and some other flagship phone. So dont go for Chinese brand phones and go straight to Motorola for full satisfactory performance. PS. Its my third day of using my Motorola Z Play and still battery remain almost 15%, for moderate use. That impress me the most. For day to day use, this is the best phone. Period.

  • I bought this phone in Jan 17 from Amazon. I have not faced any problem with the phone so far. With moderate use I charge the phone on alternate days.

  • Am using this device for the last 10 months.. no lag, no restarts,. Good performance , and best battery life ever . 2 weeks ago updated to android 7.1.1

  • I have this same concern. :) anyone who can answer? thanks

  • It's the US version. It's also known as Moto Z Droid in the US.

  • u can degrade yr phone from gallery thats the gr8 idea i think

  • This is really great phone for everyone who wants stock Android experience, with no bloatware, great battery life and more than enough performance to deal with everyday browsing, mails, social network and mobile gaming. All do great and battery life easily lasts me up to 3 days, I usually charge it after 2 days when I am at about 50% battery.

  • secondary camera 8mp is batter option.

  • can you please guide me..where its outlet in Lahore?

  • This is available in official warranty in Pakistan. You can buy it with confidence from any good retailer. So you will have no confusion after buying in official warranty. Moreover there is a promo going on in Pakistan, in which you'll also get a brand new Lenovo phone worth 10k if you buy this phone. It costs around 45k in official warranty.

  • Any noticeable changes to the main camera after latest update? What about image quality?? Thanks in advance

  • Agreed, I am noticing that battery performance has improved remarkably after updating to 7.1.1. Anyone else with the same experience?

  • Battery life is awesome, last 2 days for me. No trouble using latest os 7.1.1.

  • Buy this if you are moto fan, if not there are many other options that are more future proof and have better battery or cameras.

  • Battery drain too is faster in normal use. I say for those who newly bought this, stay on marshmallow

  • After the latest update, stutters even in normal scrolling and window switching can be observed bfrequently . I must say I hate it so far

  • you are correct.. after the update,,,the battery is much better compare to 7.0...

  • After 7.1.1 update, battery is functioning smoothly as before ie 2 days or more with moderate usage.

  • *After update 7.1.1... battery draining very fast, compare to 7.0* Anybody have solution for this problem...

  • If I will buy this mobile in August 2017, how many year I can use plz tell me friends...

  • So here is the thing i am from Pakistan and i want to buy z play now the problem is that there are many versions here one on phone is that on which DROID is written on the back of the cam (on the back side ) and one phone on which there is a logo of MOTO i really don't understand what is the difference actually somebody told me something about it's international version and USA version and blah blah please i need your suggestions and if there is some place where i can get the orignal one in lahore pakistan suggest me too Thanks

  • fully work with Nougat. Solve problem related with BT Headphones. two days battery INCREDIBLE

  • awesome phone. best shots ever. I don?t use mi Nikon anymore

  • Disappointed with my new Motom Z Play. twice been to citylight repair center but still busted the front flash still not working well. Please help

  • I also get 7.1.1 update but after this update volte option gone ,then done clear catch partition,volte return.Thank God.

  • does 7.1.1 update have any issue?

  • I received 7.1.1 update

  • I also get update nougat 7.1.1.

  • Ya I got the update

  • Official update released(retin)... Nougat 7.1.1 with July seq.patch

  • Photo app taking to much time to load all the pics in the device from yesterday, am using samsung evo 64gb sd card . Is there any solution? Rest of the media files n apps r kk

  • Of course software should play a major part in choosing the better device. I just addressed the hardware part because I don't have hands-on experience with Alcatel's software. Cheers for the tips ;)

  • does moto Z play lags as most lenovo phones? anyone here who experience lagging using moto z play? TIA

  • Just because you think the Alcatel have better spec doesn't mean it's better. The software experience on Moto is much better because its clean stock Android, in some case it is faster than some flagship phones. Also it doesn't overheat.

  • You can use Nova Launcher, it have a feature to show numbers or a dot next to the app icon.

  • According to "Moto & Lenovo Kundsupport SWE" Moto Z Play have support for Glonass.

  • Does anybody know how to set up notification of the SMS messenger app to show that you got message? Because my screen messenger log doesn't show you any sign or number to indicate that you have messages. Only You see notification on the left top of phone. But not on the Apps logo.

  • I don't know, sorry. Somebody else may answer that for you. Or you can bring it to Idol 4S' comment thread. You are welcome :)

  • Thanks!! and the last question, do you know if idol 4s has any problem related to software?

  • That's quite tricky Moto Z Play provides roughly two days of battery life and Moto Mods expansion. Alcatel Idol 4S is better in many other aspects: CPU, GPU, WiFi AC, selfie camera, FM radio among others. Its screen's resolution is overkill though. I would pick the Z Play, mainly because I don't need QHD screen paired with a less efficient SD652 (28 nm process node) and average 3000 mAh battery.

  • Yes, it's very easy to scratch. It's not gorilla glass for sure.

  • What do you recomend, the motorola z play for 250EU or alcatel idol 4s the european version for 210EU and why. thanks!

  • Question: is the back panel easy to scratch? Or is there a layer GG on top of it?

  • Better battery which is lasts 2 days.

  • What makes moto z play better ?

  • Moto Z Play by far!

  • Somebody please help, which one is the best : Moto Z Play , Asus Zenfone 3 Zoom , Nubia M2 ?

  • Does this phone also use up all the on board space for running apps, I smashed the crap outs my other Moto cause every time you reset it operating apps pushed out the aps I wanted to keep

  • No it is not

  • Just double checking whether the battery is removable or non-removable. Certain sites show it is removable. Advise me.

  • Anybody know how to flash chinese rom to global rom on this moto z play ?

  • Thx bro, I just got it yesterday shipped from chinese , but it comes with chinese rom and doesn't have play store or google support. Do you know how to flash to global rom ? What should I do ?

  • Best Phone!

  • I think go with moto z play is good choice i use this device last 6 month i m Also use my mobile for watching lots of video youtube n Pictures also for lot of calling battery back up is so well camera not so good But not bad also . Outdoor photography is good .

  • The nougat update allows the phones usb to operate at usb 3.0 speeds..... also the perfomance increased even though the antutu score went lower than 60k. It no longer takes two minutes to shut down, only like 5 seconds after the update.

  • Get yourself a generator. I mean seriously.

  • I had z play now I m using z2 play I had bad experience with z play 1 st issue if u loose sim ejector tools it's very difficult to find another proper ejector.i terms of build quality its bad it's just fell down from 1 and half feet back panel broke down.now for still pic it was good but for video it's not.performance was good front camera ok battery really good.the Moto mod cover which is provided by Moto it's bad it's make scratches on the back panel.now let's talk abt z 2 play.everything in 1 word perfect and good.many people complained Abt battery.let me tell you my review regarding battery.5 hrs on screen and almost 17 hours with 4 g net still battery left 40 percent I think it's not bad charger fast enough .So don't worry Abt battery.yes price difference only 3000 RS in my country but spending 3000 extra get metal body 1 GB extra ram double internal storage front flash dual tone 2.2 GHz processor.go with z2 play u will feel gainer.

  • I'm sure there is no big difference in performance between the two. Obviously the Z Play with bigger battery will be better suited to your requirements. On the other hand, if you feel like you need to have 4 GB of RAM, and you don't mind spending extra money for the battery Mod, then get the Z2 Play, plus a battery Mod to compensate its smaller battery.

  • Should I buy this z play or the z2 play ? Is the there a big different in performance? I watch a lot of videos on youtube , play games and facebook, I want a last long Battery life. Anh suggestions please ?

  • Same opinion now I m waiting iphone 8 or samsung mid range phone

  • OnePlus 5 has been launched but camera, sunlight display and battery are all disappointing. Happy to continue with my Moto Z Play which has it all and am totally satisfied with its performance for the last six months.

  • That's the specs for the flagship version, Moto Z.

  • How come in Flipkart they are selling the mobile with different spec.... Say processor with SD820, Battery 2600mah and Ram 4gb.

  • Why no update of 7.1.1. Lemoto do this intentionally for the new phone sale boost. Crappy

  • I was useing z play from last 2 months and was geting too much battry backup but now i am useing z2 play I am satisfied with perfomance but the battry i sam totaty sad about the battry bacup i dont get one day use like z play

  • ive been use this phone for 4 months the best part for me 1.battery is last longer than any flagship phone , you also may use gsm arena battery endurance benchmark test for reference, it really helpful, i play vainglory and 5 other games since morning 8.00am to after office hour 9pm and still have much battery backup 2.the SoC is best efficient middle range and could handle most HD games without lag nowadays 3.really2 fast charging, i ussually play vainglory while charging and only need an hour and half or so from 15% to almost full 100% 4. not heating issues 5.the body is so thin, really like handle a flagship and expensive phone cons 1.no button and only finger print 2. 5.5 inch and the form factor a bit to large for me, having difficulty to put in jeans pocket 3. no notification light 4. near stock android app, no app for music and pic viewer and videos, so i use third party app for this, because google stock app music, viewer and videos is not user friendly

  • Europe version doesn't seem to have all those LTE bands, if you refer to official specs here : B20 and 28 especially are missing.

  • motorola knows best. very practical beautifully designed and quality built phones. i so grateful! keepit up.

  • Brother, use pitambri or brasso powder to clean the glass. I had the same problem with moto g4 plus and I have solved it now.

  • Can anyone having S8, s7, or any other high end phone compare the camera quality in real world with this phone and post the results here?

  • I was Searching for a phone with the best camera on the gsmarena compare tool. And gyess what!!!! In good light, moto z play beats S8+, LG G6, S7 edge, Iphone 7+, hands down. Only one plus 3t is just below because of the noise factor. Just compare yourself, the green mesh on donkey is only visible in moto z play pic. In low light it beats every other phone and just below s8+. It beats every other phone hands down. In real world I don't know. Can anybody put some light on it. I was planning to buy s7 edge, but now i want to buy moto z play or play2 just launched yesterday. Waiting for its reviews.

  • Both will get the update, currently its "soak test"; only some of us will get 7.1.1 update for now...

  • Please check if your data saver is on, you have to tap to get whats app messages loaded. Switch off this app to get the messages loaded automatically.

  • Hi, Clear the cache data in storage/memory options and Clear the cache partition by going into recovery mode.

  • If data off & once u switch it on it takes time to connect. I think it's normal depends on the strength of network.

  • No. Check in news column in GSM arena. We will receive 7.1.1 update soon

  • Thanks I am facing following problem in my mobile: whenever I turn on internet, message in WhatsApp is not receiving automatically. I need to open WhatsApp and wait for 15- 20 sec to receive messages. Where in my another HTC Mobile I used to get messages immediately when I turn on internet. How to solve this

  • Hi guys. I am suraj Phone is very good and it really deserves all good compliments. But there is one problem guys i just want to know how to do video call bye moto z play, because i didn't find any direct option to make a video call.

  • don´t get fooled by the IP52 water nano repelent certification. Mine got wet yesterday and is not working properly. :(

  • Hell yeah! It has VoLTE support for Reliance Jio

  • My God I'm in love with this phone. 30% battery after 7 hours screen time and 4 of those are gaming. This last with out a doubt 2 days of heavy use !! Never seen this in a phone. This phone really deserve the most complete phone ever award, if there was one XD

  • Moto X play is getting 7.1.1 , not Moto Z play. I think you came to wrong forum.

  • Did u update....? If yes when ?

  • Did u receive the update 7.1.1 ?

  • Anyways the good news is nougat 7.1.1 is rolling out for our device.

  • Agreed 100% with this comment. I changed my asus zenfone 3, and the difference is abismal! Love the fact that it still has dedicated micro sd slot and 2 SIM! It´s a rarity these days. Just wish the modules were cheaper. These are quite expensive overall.

  • Really worth phone in 25K excellent battery back up very mild heating crystal clear audio out put speaker volume is excellent in day light camera is very good struggles little bit in night software update is good

  • Great phone. Battery life is amazing. Everything works just fine, good camera, nice screen and no heating issue at all.

  • Does it have VoLTE?

  • I got this phone for 2700NOK and thats very cheap here in norway for what you get. It has everything i need and a good battery, had no problem after the 7.0 update and with montly security updates pushed out this is a really good and supported phone. I use this instead of my iphone 7.

  • Just install 3rd party app like ringtone maker from Google store.

  • The best phone overall in this price tag. I have been using this phone for a few weeks. It's really an awesome phone. Very smooth and best for overall usage. The best parts are:- 1. Battery backup (easily lasts beyond a day with just a single charge) 2. Display ( AMOLED with proper colours) 3. No heating issues. ( This phone has no overheating issues. I play games and surf the internet , but this phone does not heat up at all, the maximum it might just be warm, but never hot) 4. The phone is super fast and has no lags. The processor is good enough. Also the phone is Splashproof with nanocoating. So you can use this in the rain. 5. Sound quality is awesome ( both speaker and headphone output) 6. This phone has three separate slots. Two slots for SIM cards, one for MICRO SD. So you can use two sim cards and one memory card simultaneously. 7. The camera is good at this range ( not as good as samsung cameras but it's okay type) The front camera comes with a flash, good in low light. 8. Turbo fast charging. 9. The phone comes with it's own turbo charger, usb type f data cable, earphones and a stylish sim ejector tool. Suggestions from my side :- 1. I would suggest you to buy a skullcandy earphone. I am using S2DUL from skullcandy. Very good output and bass. 2. Get a spigen back cover, or any protective cover which protects from all sides and has camera lips. So guys get this phone if you have the budget. Never get fooled by brands who offer you QUANTITY only. QUALITY Matters. So at this range, MOTO Z PLAY is the best phone.

  • Agree with your honest analysis. Using this phone for five months and fully satisfied with its performance. Did not experience any problems after updating to 7.0 with no drop in battery performance or wayward behavior which some trollers keep mentioning. Besides excellent battery, the camera is good but I am using snap camera app from google play store. It is worth trying as it is giving excellent results even in poor light conditions and also for OIS.

  • Dear Moto users - can anyone help me to set my ringtones other than factory installed one?

  • You both are lucky enough. After my new version update to 7, my battery is draining more. Now am charging every 18 hours....

  • This phone is just AMAZING. I've been user of Android premium phones and by far this is the best I've had. The battery can run for 2 days with an average use (messaging, FB etc). If you check your social networks, text, navigate in web, use streaming aplications or use GPS, the batery can last one day whithout problem. The processor is way better than Moto Z and it compensates the fact that Moto Z play just come with 3Gb RAM. Good camera (not too good in low light, but still...), good design. Little bit heavy and "fat" if you compare it with an iPhone 7 plus or Moto Z, buy actually I kind of like it. It's fast, easy to use... I think it's the best Phone in Z series by far. The Touch ID device is fast and works better than the iPhone 6s one (I have an iPhone 6s to comapre)... and cheaper than a lot of top android phones.

  • take alook at Blu vision 2

  • moto z play or huawei p9??? which one is better?

  • You are welcome. Z Play's GPU should run most games at moderate settings just fine, with no heating issues. Worst case will be just minor warm.

  • i wanna buy moto z play .. it is performance wise , camera, battery life , others good or bad?

  • This is a GREAT phone and one which has flown under the radar!! Of all the Z phones I think its the best. You get 3500mAh battery, USB-C & 3.5mm headphone jack. Run time is phenomenal even with playing games, like candy crush. Quick Twist for camera and flick for flashlight, ohhhh &&& the Mods; projector, speaker, camera. This phone deserves more awards.

  • thanks alot....and this is also good for gaming no heating up issues?

  • Maybe u can do factory reset

  • For me Moto z play

  • It is very good for that purpose as it got big 3500 mAh battery. And if that is still not enough, we can slap a Power Mod onto it and add some 2000 mAh more instantly. A5 (2017) got only 3000 mAh battery and smaller display size at 5.2". Movie-watching experience should be less good, imo.

  • motorola z play or honor 8?

  • Hi guys I wanted to ask whether this phone is good for playing movies for long hours? and how it compares to A5 2017? Thanks.

  • I support z play Android 7 I did hard reset after update. It's perfect

  • Here I am the second person to support the latest version that is 7. My Moto Z play works perfectly fine after updating to 7.0. The simple reason is I did hard reset after upgrading to 7.0. Do a hard reset before complaining about any android updates.

  • Yes its true

  • You are the first person to support the latest version that is 7. Being two days old my phone is, am thinking much whether to move on with new version. Even moto forums people have raised the issue they are facing with 7.

  • Yup....my moto too,rear camera glass verry bad

  • The phone works great on Android 7. The reason why people experience problems after an upgrade is because of conflicting settings from the previous version with the new system. A golden software rule is to always do a hard reset (reset to manufacturer defaults) after an upgrade. This means a full wipe and then using the new system with a clean slate. All upgrade problems will then vanish completely.

  • yes very true! I regretted I upgraded to 7.0!

  • Can u send me link to buy this.... Thanks in advance

  • Am hearing that after updating to Android 7, phone is acting crazy? Is that true.... People please record your experience which will help me to update to latest one or leave with older version I.e. 6

  • Never buy this phone. Front and rear camera is worst. No USB cable in the box. Cheapest earphones. Moto mod doesn't withstand even 40°C and bends. Magnetic power reduce at this temperature. Motorola mod itself doesn't stick to the back of the phone. And my phone is not older than 25 days.

  • Does it affect the camera capturing quality?

  • You can get protection glass from ebay. I have applied it before it get ruined.

  • I had my Moto z play for less than a week and the rear camera began to have scratches! i'm surprised that a high mid range phone come with no protection on the rear camera lens (i have my Samsung note 3 neo for 3 years whiteout a single scratch).. I searched a lot through the internet and found that i'm not the only one to have this issue, the lenovo forum has a lot of topics about rear camera scratch and there's no single reply from the moderators of the forum! i read earlier in the comments that this might be a plastic coating for water splash and what is getting scratched is not the camera itself but the plastic coating, i'm not sure about this but i tried to put a screen protector on the back camera but the quality is very bad and the auto focus always fails. I don't want to take pictures with scratches! Does anyone have a solution for this problem? or should i return the phone and ask for refund?

  • Wait for z play which might come with latest SD 660 chipset.

  • Yes, it's worth trying. Make sure properly back up all your data, because factory reset deletes all phone data, but OS will stay Nougat. Afterwards, update all apps and restore data. Hope it works well.

  • no sir! shall i do what you recommend?

  • Have you tried backing up your data then do a factory reset, followed by updating all apps??

  • I'm using my moto z play for more than 5 months now. last month, i was so "eggcited" for the 7.0 release. But now, my regret reaches to the heavens above; z play now lags, and there also issues like screen doesnt sleep after transferring files onto the computer. i think ill root this and go back to 6.0 where i found it very heavenly!

  • I second that. Moreover they are gonna reduce the size of the battery. IMO, when Z2 Play does launch, Z Play owners need not apply. Further, prospective buyers could later purchase the Z Play at discounted price.

  • Why Motorola is not using sd 660 chipset instead of sd 626 for 2nd gen z play I don't think people will be interested in upgrading to a minor updated chipset. Motorola don't be a fool.

  • Hope u r working for moto Words seems to be very kind towards moto Pls help me....

  • This is better option than a MOTO X FORCE (moto droid turbo 2)? Wich would you choose and why? i cant really decide by myself!!! xD

  • I don't recommend Moto X Force due to overheating SD810. Moto Z Force is much better with SD820 but I'm not sure whether that's available outside the US. Anyway, I think you can not go wrong with Moto Z Play, unless there is any feature you absolutely need to have but Z Play lacks

  • I wouldn't recommend it. It won't be much of an upgrade. It will just be a change. They are taking away the big battery to make the phone slimmer. The big battery is the best feature of the phone.

  • Yes it does.

  • Blindly buy moto g5 plus trust me don't go for any other if budget are affordable then only go for moto don't buy bullshit like vivo oppo

  • yes, this is good fone everything is excellent but camera performance may little bit dispointed u

  • yes some peoples are using without any screen protectors but this thing is not good, so plz find out best fit screen protector and use urs moto z play

  • yes.., if u go deeply then u feel this prob, bcoz of one single speaker in front and this only happened when u playing song on full volume. u can go service center too and ask about this...

  • it means this fone camera not satisfied you...??

  • Yes.., It's excellent fone No Doubt Battery Performance is Great/Brilliant/awesome No word to explain. yeah but Camera... is also great i don't tell not good but when we shot in indoor lighting condition or low lighting condition it's feels little blurry but outdoor performance really great...

  • This is better than moto x force?? please i cannot dicede wich to buy!!!

  • Moto Z play having super amoled display really fantastic u really enjoy watching hd vedios & movies also high end games really good to play regarding battery back up it's a champion camera in day light really excellent both front & back cameras when u take photos in low light pictures are little bit blur but not bad over all worth purchasable

  • I bought it, But it doesn't have lock finger print option

  • Perhaps read the review.

  • I planned to buy moto z play.what about its camera and battery performance?

  • Check your Moto Z play if you own one, there may be nothing wrong with it. You need to see a doctor immediately for planting this weird story.

  • it has a moto voice.

  • My next phone is probably going to be the Moto "Z2" Play, if the camera is good.

  • Hi Can anybody help me My Healthy Moto z play of six months suddenly behaving weirdly It's not getting stared. Giving a small vibration feedback, if we are pressing power button. If I connect it to charger supplied by motorola/if I connect it to power bank, there is no response. From power bank it's not taking power input also. Do any one faced problem like this??? Can you help me out.

  • i am using without,no seen any problem yet ,will be sour if get it some scratch. don't wanna use any screensavers,because looks stupid,screen saver on middle of screen,its not covers them all surface.

  • does moto z play has moto voice the same with moto x pure and moto x2 guys? and the regular z? if it doesn't have I will stick to my moto x2. without any moto voice I feel like a down grade from my current phones.

  • Can u give ur no so i can talk to u n explain my prob ..so that i can go to customer care

  • yes, its normal..

  • Is there is any kind of vibration on screen when we olay songs ...plz guyz help me

  • Does Moto Z play really need tempered glass screen protector? Since the phone has 2.5D curved glass, no screen protector fits properly. Is anyone using the phone without screen protector?

  • Also look at the new Lenovo P2. This is the phone I'd love to get next. Crazy battery life, simplistic yet nice design. and AMOLED screen

  • my work mate has this phone and says this phone is the best android phone he has ever had, same goes for the battery life. Android is better than windows in his opinion also. He has used both.

  • can u please, anybody tell me which is best handset in Rs.20,000 range :- Moto Z play * Moto G5 + * Vivo V5 s * Xioami redmi note 4 * Oppo f1s because I m windows user so I have no idea about android device ?????

  • 80~90 minutes for 0 to 100 with the suplied charger

  • Moto z play no phone can touch it's battery performace N chipset really give competition to much higher specs phones.n it's future proof because of mods.

  • Overall z play is better its 6k cheap in india get update regularly Oppo is just good for selfie no update in Future Cjoice is yours

  • Dash Charge is the same VOOC charging from Oppo, it's the best fast charging setup, and it does not creates heat on the phone.

  • Hello guys was looking forward to buy new phone under 30000rs in my country as a buyer I have two choices moto z play or oppo f3 plus could you please suggest which is worth as oppo has better specs so decision is between and old trusted brand vs new brand kindly let me know your opinions thank you

  • I really enjoy this device from 3 n half month . Battery performance is best . Fast charging is also good . Camera performance in outdoor is good but indoors is ok . I m satisfied . I used this phone for watching movies for calling rarely used for gaming . Weakly photo session . Naught 7.0 good.

  • Yes it's a fantastic phone I have ever used never seen a phone with a battery performance like this. Go ahead you'll never ever regret for buying this.

  • Guys, i planed to buy Moto Z Play . is this phone working good ...? what about display quality... its equal to samsung AMOLED..? and pls tell me the mobile perfomance. i wont use too much apps. and tell me battery backup..?

  • Mine sot is 4hrs 28 mins and battery remaining 56%

  • No battery drain issues after the update. Try clearing cache partition using recovery mode.

  • True that my friend

  • Trolls with fake comments are back again canvassing for Samsung. Using Moto Z Play for more than four months. Did not experience drop in battery performance in any of three updates so far which remains two days with moderate usage. Dropped mobile three times on hard surface with no damage. Using transparent back cover from Amazon. Excellent performance with no lags. Trolls please excuse, this is the best phone ever.

  • Definitely the phone is up-to-date with the features and performance especially with the latest Nougat update available now on Moto Z Play. However after using this phone for 6 months I would strictly not recommend it for users who expect a little bit of ruggedness in their phone. Apparently the display of this phone cannot handle much pressure and cracks easily thus forcing you to spend another 9 grands in the first year itself. Hence my advise to people who are looking for a good rugged phone this is an absolute no-no, maybe any Samsung model will far surpass it in this department. And for people who already own a Moto Z Play, suggest you take extra care and first thing you should do is get a hard case for it. And most of all very upsetting service from Motorola.

  • No galaxy No music icon

  • Do u face battery draining issue after this update.... But I did this update performance fine but battery draining very very fast.,. Getting SOT around 3.5hrs.... Earlier it was more than 7hrs

  • Dear dont worry.. U do one thing.. Fon switch off first then press volume button nd pover button same time nd reboot ur fon insha allah.. Solved ur problem my fon also likedat software updating time.. I do likedat now working don't worry do like ds

  • Just got a new update which features improved stability n notification sound improvement.

  • Does moto z play have more radiation ? if yes can i reduce it using antiradiation chip ?

  • ~ 120 minutes i believe

  • any phone with quick charge, turbo, dash charge. will produce enormous amount of heat. If our phones are cooled in a different way, manufacturers can implement charging in minutes. but there's the heat problem. you'll notice any quick charge implementation for any manufacturer, it charges fast the first 2/3 of the cycle. then slow down. to cool the unit itself while charging. its perfectly normal, but if you are worried, just turn off the turbo charge feature.

  • In my personal opinion. the moto z play is the overall better phone. the moto z is too thin and the battery capacity for the display is not good enough. And the consistency on performance is at par with the more expensive moto z. The battery lasts 1.5x than my iphone 7 plus. which says a lot! i can easily get 2 days on moderate use. and a full day on heavy use with data on. You cannot go wrong with the z play! and if ever you decide to upgrade. moto mods are still compatible! win win

  • Any news on nougat 7.1.1 for Moto z play?

  • You cant get a screen protector that covers complete sides. Not only this model, any mobile that have 2.5 d glass will noy get complete glass.

  • What is the total battery charging time ? With supplied stock charger

  • product is fine but some of the defects is battery is have to improve more b cze i ts looking very nice and nice advanced feautures and all are is fined and well to say am using this from last two months but there is no kind of problems in this product so please have to improve battery life in this product after that every company will be down in front of moto

  • the best and honest review ive read so far.

  • The best phone overall in this price tag. I have been using this phone for a few weeks. It's really an awesome phone. The best parts are:- 1. Battery backup (easily lasts beyond a day with just a single charge) 2. Display ( AMOLED with proper colours) 3. No heating issues. ( This phone has no overheating issues. I play games and surf the internet , but this phone does not heat up at all, the maximum it might just be warm, but never hot) 4. The phone is super fast and has no lags. The processor is good enough. 5. Sound quality is awesome ( both speaker and headphone output) 6. This phone has three separate slots. Two slots for SIM cards, one for MICRO SD. So you can use two sim cards and one memory card simultaneously. 7. The camera is good at this range ( not as good as samsung cameras but it's okay type) The front camera comes with a flash, good in low light. 8. Turbo fast charging. So guys get this phone if you have the budget. Never get fooled by brands who offer you QUANTITY only. QUALITY Matters. So at this range, MOTO Z PLAY is the best phone.

  • I absolutely love this phone. I've got it for 5 months already and I can't think of any phone that would fit my needs better. Awesome battery life, it's so cool not to carry a power bank with me all the time! The only weak point of this phone is it's camera, but as I don't take many pictures, it's not a problem for me at all. It's enough for the few pictures I take and for snapchat.

  • value for money

  • which one is the best between Z play and moto Z

  • Dude s7 edge costs 40000₹.. moto z play only costs 25000₹.. stop posting rubbish..

  • Best phone experience in my life

  • Never buy this phone. The camera is worst when compared to s6 edge+, S7 edge, even honor 6. Auto focus is completely bad. For the price of MZP , S7 edge is best in class.

  • Moto X play it´s a great phone... The batery is amazing... I just received Nougat in Mexico and still great. If you buy it, also buy a back cristal protector, and try to protect the cristal of the rear camera... just... do it.

  • Samsung C7 is the same size but with a 5.7 " screen. Lenovo reduce the bezels of this phone or increase screen size! And add double speakers.

  • Can anyone please let me know good tempered glass protection for Moto Z Play which covers 100% of screen (on both sides) and also available in India? The problem is most of the tempered glass does not cover right and left sides. If anyone has got, please reply.

  • According to constructor specs, LTE band 28 is *not* supported in Europe.

  • If it has minimum 8mp secondary camera that will be more likely to buy

  • nougat won't allow to download apps from playstore on data roaming. you must be on data roaming.

  • Crct bro...U HV posted the exact thing which I suppose to post

  • Fully agree with your comment. It is an excellent mobile with two days battery backup, good camera and no scratches on camera lens. I am using transparent back cover which gives it an elegant look. I am glad that I didnt purchase one plus 3t.

  • The Motorola India website says, Z Play has Water repellent nano-coating. The back side glass and camera also has this Water repellent nano-coating. This coating/plastic layer might be getting scratches and not the back glass and camera glass. You can officially get answers from support link, Some people have told that they have removed this plastic layer on back glass after getting scratches. It is better to post a question in link I have given here and confirm this. FYI, I have been using this excellent phone since last 3 months, no scratches....

  • Everything is read and written OK for a budget smartphone, only thing that tickles painfully is that rear camera lens getting scratches......for this some wrote they are not facing any such problem....some one has written the camera lens has a protective plastic layer and its getting scratched ...one need to remove that layer.......so still a consusion whats the actual thing.......can any one genuinely comment something for this confusion??????????

  • No rear camera lens song get starches easily its pure glass, but rear glass is Corning Gorilla glass 3 starches getting easily, i puted screen protecter at back by modification tooks me 1 hour to cut those screen guard at camera hole and those 16 pins

  • Hi..im using moto z play..After Nougat update i cant download or update any apps from play store..how can this be fixed or its happening with everyone.. Standing on the era of 4G this phone dialler does not support direct video calling like samsung phones..this is very much irritating & disappointing..otherwise its a nice phone

  • Enjoy this phone, don't think it is cheaply made. No camera lens scratches

  • Does Moto Z Play support Dual Apps Profile/Instance? kindly confirm me. thanks..

  • @Man Trolling man, using this product for three months using camera extensively but not a single scratch so far.

  • The Moto Z play's camera lense is pron to scratch and i had plenty of scratches on the len in just few days. Thankfully i returned this cheap product under 10 days replacement/refund policy on fkipkart. And the fkipkart assistance was praiseworthy, i would say why these companies don't look into such little problem? They could've easily given a sapphire or gorilla glass protection on the camera lense but didn't. It's not worth paying 25k for such cheap quality product, although the performance of the phone was doubtlessly excellent.

  • I have problem because i can not find any bumper / moto mod friendly case... Any suggestions which i can buy on e-bay or aliexpress since i live in Europe?

  • microphone below on the front bothers me. looks ugly

  • Try droid z force

  • Yeah so true right bro

  • mi is nothing except battery/...bad camera no fast charging wont get latest os update,,its a crap

  • it is usual ....every mobile will get heat when fast charging

  • correct bro...its an awesome mobile which i have been using since last december

  • @susheel Who paid you to write this crap ? Moto z play is the best phone ever, using it for last three months with no problem. Don't carried away with this false propaganda by hired agents.

  • Those who cannot afford costly phone.. they can only say xiaomi ph are good.. Very bad camera.. no fast charging.. still is good. in which era are u living..

  • I updated to nougat 7 .no issues till now.. i AM USING FROM PAST 5 MONTHS.. dont listen to false reviewer. the ph is good.. working great

  • It's normal .. phone has turbocharging. So heats up while charging

  • anybody has the heating problem while charging with Moto z Play? Its battery temperature is shown 43°c which is higher than normal temperature of 35 to 36°c Can anybody help me whether it is a problem or not?

  • Thanks Sushil

  • i just recieved nougat update few hours ago... and the update is good... the low volume notification sound in marshmallow is now gone by the nougat update...

  • whats the model number of your phone? is it dual sim unlockd?

  • I just got this phone delivered on mar 7, been porting stuff over contact and apps and other contents before moving my sim over for primary phone use. I did not know about the nougat update but was able to update to moto version of android nougat just yesterday evening Mar 8th. Love the phone so far cannot wait to use it after i got everything set up.

  • Dear Dont Buy Moto Z play in Flipkart (India ) I purchased this phone through Flipkart on 3 Jan 2017 , My phone got notification for updating software for 7.0, I refused to do that initially on 5th march 2017 , automatically the software and app was updating the while wifi was connected , after the software was installed my phone display got blanked I have checked with the vendor who is doing warranty service (Digital communication T Nagar in Chennai , where you find worst review in google , This is the only service center in chennai )after so many hours of waiting they addressed my queries but they have informed that my internal display cracked but there is no external damage , I am surprised with their respond , I have asked them how come it possible when I purchased very recently it has completed only two months where the phone didnt got any physical damage or misused , They answered me back as it might manufacture defect or If mobile phone which kept in pocket by pressure also it may, This answer made me very pathetic. They told it is out of Warrant and it will cost 12000 INR , which is half cost of my phone. I feel very badly. My phone didnt got any physical damage or mishandled but it has happened within internal how come I am not getting in warranty service. I dont like to getting into unnecessary situation where i am not at responsible to this problem and I believe once the notification came to update the software after that only the display got blanked, I request them over the mail and phone , no response from them Basically I asked the representative to write the comment on job sheet where he mentioned as manufacture defect , he refused to do that , If you buy this phone , Dont keep it in Your pocket bcoz they want us to keep phone in head and roam. Poor customer service both moto and flipkart , No one will give you proper response , You need to wait like anything .

  • i have dual sim version openline xt1635-02 here in philippines still no updatde.

  • still waiting for nougat update for my moto z play here in saudi arabia

  • from what country? im using dual sim unlock version still no update.

  • After updating to nougat 7.0 I was facing network instability problem as well as battery performance problem,so i replaced my phone on Flipkart. Don't update until every problem is solved by Lenovo. I would say don't update to nougat.

  • Moto z play is the best

  • @worthless update This is totally wrong and misleading comment. In fact I am getting extra battery life after upgrading to 7.0 nougat.

  • Try hard reset, highly recommended

  • Just factory rest/format your phone after the update and all your bugs will be gone.

  • Red mi note 3 is the best phone ever

  • If you don't do a hard reset after every major update, obviously there will be issues. I have upgraded to 7.0 and battery performance has improved a bit.

  • After updating to nougat I'm facing a little problem in battery performance, it's not as good as it was with Marshmallow. My phone is st under 10 days replacement warranty so I've decided to replace it. Don't update to 7.0

  • I'm facing a little battery draining issue after the 7.0 update as compare to MM.

  • After two month of use i must say it is good midrange device . Best part is battery life and unique design . Camera very good in good lighting but so so in poor light. Overall I m satisfied with this phone at list i used this phone 2 years .one advice for others use back cover.for improve camera performance in poor light condition give me suggestions

  • Operating System Android™ 6.0.1, Marshmallow Will receive an upgrade‡‡ to Android 7.0 Nougat

  • S7, no doubt, is the best.

  • Phone over heating while charging.....u have that problem...?

  • Yes u can use two sim cards plus m. card

  • which mobile phone is good motorola z,moto z play,htc 10,samsung s7.

  • which mobile phone is good motorola z,moto z play,htc 10,samsung s7.

  • which mobile phone is good motorola z,moto z play,htc 10,samsung s7.

  • Ya dude. It's has dual sim slot and a sd card slot..

  • Is it worth updating to Nougat? Is there any positive enhancement after upgrading to Nougat? Please make it clear I'm quite confused. Thanks! :-)

  • Try to reset Moto gesture...

  • Can anyone help me..?? I purchase new moto z ply..its really awesome phone... But i hav a doubt..can i use 2 sims and sd card at one time..?? Reply pls

  • Initially when I take my hand near the phone, it used to glow and was easy to locate the phone, but it has stopped now, can anybody help me with this. :/

  • It is a normal glass and get scratched but if the shell provided in the box is used it will be protected

  • OIS issue is perfectly solved by uploading open camera from google play store. Getting excellent photographs and videos even in poor light.

  • No it has all sensors and i am gps daily user it works good

  • I'm getting a lot of mixed answers about whether Moto Z Play has a normal glass back or a Gorilla glass one. If its the latter, I might just go for it, but no point otherwise. My usage is rough, and most likely the phone wont last for more than a month without dropping and hence the back panel getting scratched or breaking. Can it be confirmed 100%? Thanks.

  • Doesn't have OIS!! Wow

  • Few users have complained of scratches on back glass in official Moto Z play lenovo forum. But some users have found out that there is a thin plastic layer on top of back glass which is getting scratches and not the back glass. You just need to remove this thin layer of plastic on back glass. It seems even the back glass has Gorilla protection.

  • this is the best phone i have never seen in this range .and its camera is very very good.(before using camera pls learn some thing about it and learn how to take photos) ,dont keep rubish reviews

  • Yes! Moto Z play is not a premium handset at all… But there is glass-metal sandwich design in Moto Z play which is perfect for me. But, no Gorilla glass for back! Surprisingly get scratch with moto style mod! Device performance is ok with latest android version… And me too using "XB50AP" with Xperia M(1st gen). I thought just like you there is no one to match the quality sound, Sony use to provide for years... But now I can say Moto Z play is way better with XB50AP headset—really powerful output, obviously you need to install a third-party app (e.g. PowerAmp, N7 etc.). If you are looking for battery life & media then go for Moto Z play.

  • Hello everyone, am planning to buy a new all-round mobile with an affordable price range of 30k. I found very few to be in that list like 1+3t, honor 8, moto z. I hav little disappointment over all these, like no sd card option in 3t, glass finish which is prone to scratches and cracks h8, non premium look in mz,. Don't get me wrong I accept no device is perfect but for me these are cons. So finally I have decided to go with 1+3t sacrificing the sd option,as it kills all the high branded flagships. I still hav little worried about the audio quality via headset will satisfy me or not. Am currently using Xperia m4 aqua and xb 50 ap headset combo. As all know Sony sound quality is unmatched, but I wanna make sure the quality not poor. Bcoz am a song lover. Plz spend ur time to clarify me. Thanks in advance.

  • I can verify that it works (the GPS) flawlessly. Have used with Google Maps and Waze - both worked great locally and out of town

  • Does gps works good in this phone. I heard it doesnt have have a gps sensors.

  • what about gps performance?

  • The speaker/earpiece problem is solved finally. What I did was, I ran the Speaker and Hardware tests given in Device Help app. I also ran some songs at maximum volume and speaker started working fine. Another thing I did was just blow the air and suck the air near earpiece/speaker. There was no noise/buzzing sound during call after this. If anyone is facing speaker issue, they can try these tricks :)

  • This is my personal opinion and experince by using this phone about 3 weeks,,This is the most balanced phone ive got so far, middle processor and enough ram to do all my needs for gaming, very nice amoled display and nice wide range onf 5.5inch display. With super thin 7mm dimension, middle end camera but i didny use the camera to often but overal its good and the most important 'almost' excelent battery life , i got 7-8 hours screen on time its really balanced and well phone for its price range, i got privilege and enjoying this stuff right now, i can enjoy the phone whole day with one charge in the morning at 7am and still can be used to over 22pm and still have about 15-20% left, really well balanced phone, i like it, sony should learn this from motorola

  • Plz anyone tell me about the camera performance in front and back ??

  • Very Bad Experince.... :( Phone seems fine in first place. Somehow the sim slot was not ejecting ....guess wt i went to service center Nagpur !! The engineer over there damaged the display in opening the phone or sim slot ....No replacement till date( 30 days passed ). Wt so ever Moto does when there is no proper service. why to waste 25k better go for samsung and one plus 3 T

  • sorry about,its alll goood,just need practice!

  • sorry you are write,all good.

  • thank you, i find this.

  • First thing that you will going to do is to practice how to take picture, before complaining. I do have that phone and yet the phone is excellent and in low light? is its good also. the problem is not on the phone is you the one who used the phone.

  • Camera s not gud NLY in low light... Otherwise getting awesome pics ... Awesome phone ..dnt post fake reviews simply

  • anyway its horrible phone,i dont know i spend 360 pounds for sh,.....t ,cant take any photos,all blurry pictures,only battery is excelennt. rubbish phone. DONT BY !!!

  • It isn't a software issue. But it does appear across few Moto phones. I use a G4 plus. So just check if the same issue can be solved in your Moto Z Play. I'll give you the link. Check it out. It is in Hindi. It seems very stupid, but it worked for many users. It is down to a hardware connection issue. This is the first time I found this issue from a Moto Z Play user. So please give an update if it worked for you. Good Luck!

  • I am not trolling. It is a genuine problem faced by me. But still I am going to keep this phone because overall it is an excellent phone by Motorola. Hope some software update fixes this problem.

  • Vishnu, No such problem faced by me after update to nougat. In fact, overall performance has improved. Battery backup increased by 30%. Sound quality improved. Hope u r not trolling like anonymous.

  • I purchased Moto Z play one month back. Earlier I used to use Samsung phones. I was a big Samsung fan. Although Samsung phones are great, they are bit overpriced and also updates are not regular. So I decided to buy Moto phone this time. Z play is a good phone, good build quality, great battery backup, no other phone can match this kind of battery performance. The camera is bit average for this price range. Overall a good phone. After the upgrade to Nougat, I am facing Buzzing Sound or noise in earpiece/speaker while calling or when phone is ringing. Has any one experienced this problem? This does not seem to be a software problem. If anyone has faced this problem or solved this problem, please reply in this forum. For a 25k phone, this basic problem should not be there.

  • fake

  • Mr Anonymous, This is a fake message. So, Flip cart sent you a totally defective with multiple problems which was about to explode Lol. If it is a genuine case, can u post ur name, model no and phone numbers of agencies approached by u for repairs for verification ?

  • I purchased a Moto Z Play on the day it was released in India and i got the handset from the flipkart on 24 Oct 2016. Within 18 days, on 4th Nov 2016 my screen went black while charging, and Motorola service desk claimed it as physically damaged and replaced the display unit after 60 days charging me 10,500/-. Still the handset is not working. It was claimed as PCB issue and was asked to open another ticket which may take some more weeks. Even with the new display unit which was replaced, the fingerprint sensor was not working and touch screen is not fixed properly and i can view a visible gap between the display unit and the touch screen. I had my handset only for 18 days and at service center for almost 105 days. Motorola: What kind of handset is MOTO Z PLAY? luckily i noticed the issue with the handset and immediately removed it from the charge else we could have witnessed one more dangerous incident with this handset model. Also the kind of service we get here from this brand is ridiculous and pretty slow? sometimes no response? May be they cant provide service to the new launched models, if so, should clearly mention in the warranty terms saying service will be provided after an year or so. I spent almost 15-30 mins every day talking with multiple service agents explaining the issue? Flipkart: i got worst response from the flipkart, i was just routed to the Motorola page with out any further discussion saying they cant help? Hope my comments would help someone who is looking for this model

  • Is thr any lags in UI??

  • Excellent phone, no heating and sound issues, using for last two months. Trolls pl stop making these observations. Very good camera. battery after 7.0 update lasts almost 3 days, earlier it was two days. overall performance better than one plus 3 t. highly recommended.

  • use google camera app

  • Nothingg...no heating issues found till now and also it has loud notification sound...

  • I agree with u bro..he has just posted a fake review for a superb mobile...:-)

  • There is no heating issues except when charging mobile(It is usual becz of fast charging)

  • No problem in notification sound right from the beginning. In fact sound and battery are assets of moto z play. Camera performance in poor light is the only grey area but i got this sorted out loading open camera app from play store. OIS problem was overcome and got very good photographs and HDR videos in low light conditions. Performance of battery back up increased by 25 to 30% after updation to nougat.

  • Install Moto app again then open Moto App->Display. There is a switch available at the top. Reset it.

  • No heating issues ...

  • It's not very low....Normal nly

  • hello everyone,is someone know how to turn off screen gesture? it's annoying screen waking up all the time with clock,how to turn off? i tried uninstall moto app and its still not helps,please someone ! ,but feels like the best phone,if compare just camera with lg g4 ,its like the best,ITS NOT,moto z play its much better and battery life its awesome !

  • how about the low volume notification sound>? is it fix by the latest update?

  • Any improvement noticed after this update on camera performance in low light ?

  • after nougat 7.0 battery life has increased in my moto z play.

  • i have read in the forum of motorola/ lenovo that there is a bug in notification volume which is very low..will it fix in the latest update?

  • i have notice that the notification volume of moto z play is very low...

  • Heating issue is there, only during Charging..... No heating issue while using phone.. Phone is really good. Superb.

  • is there any heating problem to dis mobible....????

  • Select storage for Camera output to phone internal storage instead of SD card. This has solved the problem for some users.

  • Moto Z Play for me

  • Moto z play

  • So I have completed almost 24hrs after upgrading to Nougat...must say I can see huge difference in battery backup along with performance..go for it, upgrade is too good

  • Moto Z Play or Galaxy A5 (2017)

  • so , is there has any solution for this problem ?

  • I haven't observed any major difference regarding battery performance. I mean it is as earlier, I get almost same battery life after Nougat upgrade.

  • How about battery performance after upgrading to nougat update

  • Sad, that it is not compatible for google daydream vr...not good lenovo

  • Got Nougat update for Z Play in India. Update size about 1.2 GB. Took around 1 hour for update. Not much change in UI, except notifications.

  • I love this phone. It brought my faith back to Android. And this phone does not get hot even when playing heavy visual games. This is my "toy." Perfect companion to my BlackBerry Passport SE which does the heavy work of emailing, texting, and calling. My Moto Z Play has an amazing battery. The reviews are true about the battery endurance. Ang Google Play Music does an excellent audio output with a (Sony) premium in-ear headset. Kudos to Lenovo. Btw, I now have Nougat on my Z Play this morning. Thanks Lenovo for the blazing fast update. Before I forget, the camera hump looks authoritative as a legit camera phone. But it actually is (in good lighting condition).

  • Updated to android nougat works superb

  • 1.2 gb appx.

  • What is the update size? Thanks.

  • I'll update after successful installation ...how much sweet it is!!! and I hope its bug-free!

  • Probably, "reteu" is RETail unit for EUrope, which will get updated by March'17 ...I'm not sure And its "retin", RETail unit for INdia.

  • how's the phone after update

  • Me too got it, downloading

  • Naught update received.Well done Motorola.

  • Device with reteu software, nothing yet sadly and also have this camera issue where at random can take 4-7 seconds to take a picture, it's very annoying.

  • Me too . ..Just received an updated to Android N... Started downloading

  • Goodnews!!! Got Nougat update just now! New update version is "NPN25.137-15-2" ...is anyone aware of that? pls. reply... Kolkata IN

  • hey my also front camera lack for 4 sec.............

  • Front camera is working fine for me, not taking 4 secs delay as mentioned by you.

  • Bro m also facing the same issue may be its a software issue or bug

  • The camera is descent under 25k price range

  • very high price

  • How much battry is drained in idle time in 6 to 8 hours when internet is on?

  • Camera is not good

  • Camera is not good

  • might be it's a good phone but its camera disappointed me....so I returned on just next day ...I.m not trolling.,,,i just shared my experience with this phone...

  • This one or the new oppo r9s 4gb ram?

  • Received monthly security patch for december, yesterday update size being 35 MB

  • After 4 days screen went black and want turn on.

  • Dnt forget sensor theft by Samsung

  • thank you friend

  • He was looking for a cheaper options,hence G 4 siblings suggested. If money is not a problem,then Moto Z is best option with Z play being next in line.

  • why to prefer g4 series over moto z play?

  • Is there anyone's phone has any error during using front camera ??, when you click picture front cam , because my phone can take upto 4 sec to click first picture even timer is off

  • It doesn't has a FM. Also you can't use any other software as the issue is with missing hardware.

  • Price is much difference between them nearly 8k-9k.

  • is moto z play having fm radio? if not then how to use it is any app available on play store to run fm radio plz tell me the procedure (ans me iff you have this handset plz rply fast)

  • J7 prime ?? Less battery, exynos processor, 13mp cam with no 4 k video recording, lcd display, worst build quality wen compared with moto z play

  • After researching on this site, I made the decision to buy this phone. It is by far the best phone I've had. Battery life is great, 4 days between charges, and I'm using it the same as my last phone which required charging each day and sometimes more. The CPU, chipset, and memory make it lightning fast to process any data / work I give it. The camera works great and photo quality is the best. I use it at my work around machines to take photos of parts, and sometimes the lighting is not good, but the photos still come out great. Also, note most of my usage is inside a large manufacturing facility, where reception is not so good, yet this phone always works and somehow it manages to get a strong signal so I don't miss any calls, and can always logon to the internet. I use Solid Explorer to transfer very large files, videos, at the same time, via our home network, and data transfer speed is very fast. I highly recommend this phone.

  • wait for moto g5

  • Keep Moto G 4 siblings as first choice. Next can be Xiaomi Redmi note4,note3, mi Note 2, Mi 5 siblings.

  • It's is costlier phone so better buy Samsung J7 prime

  • A very good phone don't forget to buy a rubber bback cover......The phone is very slippery

  • Whats the price of this thing, if its cheap ill get it than my choices if not im stuck with xiaomi redmi 3 pro, G4 plus or Meixu m3s. Help??

  • Thanks for your review.. It's very useful.

  • Dude u didn't have moto z play , am sure u r just a troller , bcoz no other phone in this price range has good build quality, battery , performance, camera clarity including 4k video recorder, oled full hd display , dual sim n sd card slot , front cam flash , fingerprint sensor and moto mod features

  • After several years of being a Samsung phone owner, I decided it was no longer a good fit for me. Mainly b/c I was tired of having a phone that I had to charge every night and had to worry about dying on me b4 the day was over if I did 'too much' on it during the day. I saw the Moto Z Play commercials and read the reviews and was so impressed with what I heard/read that I decided to take the plunge. When I was picking up the very last one, I commented to the Rep that it was a lot bigger than I was used to. Her response was that not only would I get used to it very quickly, but I would be so happy with this phone that I would NEVER go back. And guess what? She was right!!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE this phone. What do I love most? Well, let me count the ways.... #1. The battery lasts and lasts and lasts. Yes, there are some features that can drain it faster than norm (like the location button) BUT if I make sure these things aren't running, my phone has gone as long as 4 days b4 needing to be recharged. For the FIRST time the other day, I heard the 'foreign' sound of the warning that my phone was about to die and that was only b/c I had left the 'location' button on! LOVE LOVE LOVE the longevity of the battery. #2. I LOVE how my msgs can been seen from the home screen with the touch of my finger (and not just a 'preview' of some of the msg, but ALL of it). #3. I LOVE how I can 'color code' my contacts! For a person who loves to be organized, this is a perfect solution for me. #4. LOVE the option to add the speaker and the lens for the camera. Not sure why some complain about the camera as it is because mine works great! While I haven't taken advantage of these options, I do plan to get the additional speaker in the near future. Will update this review accordingly afterwards! #5. Beautiful graphics and clear pics! Everything I see is crisp,clear and well defined! I don't know why ppl have complained about the camera either as I find it works just as well as Samsung's cameras. I guess they may have had an issue or a defect but so far I haven't seen any of those problems occur for me. #6. This phone is SOLID. While I do have it in a 'protective' wallet, I have dropped it several times and it is still in PERFECT condition. Not one scratch or ding. This is a phone that is built to LAST! The ONLY negative that I have experienced is when I put it on speakerphone, it is a bit weak in terms of my being able to hear someone on the other end. I am hoping that the added speaker will help eliminate that problem and also make listening to music a much more pleasant experience as well! Overall, I absolutely love this phone compared to the Samsung and the Rep was right b/c I just don't see myself going back to a Samsung now.

  • is there any issue regarding heating or low sound quality??

  • Every cheap quality earphone ...not inbuilt sound system(equaliser)can be customised.. very bad camera and video quality..... I'm very much disappointed to this moto z play ...

  • Anybody can got the nougat update here in India... Coz I don't get any notification yet plz inform... Thanks in advance.

  • How do I delete a single call entry on this phone

  • it has 2.5d glass, but I wouldn't call it curved.

  • no

  • Hi : Can any one tell me if 4G works on second sim on this phone.

  • Does Moto Z Play have any LED notification??

  • Even i am using a Htc phone everything is perfect except battery life which is excruciating. My choice was moto z play over oneplus 3t for battery life and quick updates. look what lenovo is doing, no nougat update yet for moto z play, where as nougat already in op3t. Now i will wait for 2017. moto g5 plus, moto z series, oneplus 5 all are coming. my suggestion will be stick to a brand or particular preference. See the review of the model and buy, otherwise brands like lenovo,samsung launch phones throughout the year.

  • Awesome mobile u get all expectations which you have daily needs battery backup is osome i don't think another mobiles of today's generation gives like battery back up look & operating i am loving with it core gaming video play back is also very good clean rom no boltware I give 4.5 out of 5 *

  • Does it supports virtual reality

  • Does it has seperate 3.5mm ear phone jack and which type of otg does it supports?

  • Does it have curved glass on front

  • Hey guys,can you just help me out. I got the Moto z play a week ago...and it's the best at its class... The notification lights turned out to be white after a week. I don't know how to revert it back to fluorescent blue. U guys have know how to change the display notification colors.

  • Liking the phone to the core :) very happy using it whole day without worrying about battery .. well i wanted to know when the android software uograde be available for it .

  • Shatter proof glass is in moto z droid which is not available in India 😐

  • Mine is made in india . Battery Lasts for two days, with turbocharging , superb camera with 4k n slowmotion videos recording, 3g ram mated to snapdragon 625 processor, full hd oled display , fingerprint sensor, shatterproof glass, fast n smooth wen playing games like asphalt 8 .. and am using it for 3 months. Worth every penny i spend on this device,

  • You are welcome. And you are spot on, such is the state of the mobile market nowadays. Happy shopping then, though. ;)

  • Thank you for your genuine and valuable friendly suggestion. Even i was thinking so, but in the present smartphone time, there is a release of new smartphone every week. I don't have problem waiting another 5 or 6 months,but even after waiting there will be some new mobile with better or equal specs to our requirement at lower price going to release in few days. Feb have moto g5 plus, galaxy s8 n some other launches. If I wait till Feb, there will be some other phone launching in March or April for which I need to wait for 2 more months and this continues 😥😥😥. Im afraid the wait continues. That's what I'm worried about waiting.

  • T could be my next phone. But there is no miracast.

  • Mine is "Made in India"!!! BTW yes it's Lenovo now, with superb daily drive...

  • How About Head phone performance ???

  • If you say like that, OP3T is also ruled out. Hmmm... But hey, I haven't cross checked this but it seems Moto Z Play is made in India. That should be one more reason to give it a try.

  • Okay. If you wish to stick to HTC though, I suggest HTC 10 to you, but wait until its successor is launched so that you can get discounted HTC 10. Its camera can trade blows with Samsung S7's camera. Anyway, if I were you, I would not hurry but wait for those early 2017 devices to come. ;)

  • Moto z play is a chinees phone not a motorola its a lenovo phone bcoz all hardware is lenovo only tag motorola so pls careful..china product 26k its very expences

  • does this phone have own HD port?

  • No, it uses nanosim.

  • moto z play have micro sim slot?

  • Yes, you are right, M8 eye performs decently well even today in gaming, music(front facing boom sound speaker). I am a bit unsatisfied with the weak battery life and unsure about camera when compare with new devices. I miss the fingerprint scanner in every device now. If I move to any device now battery life will be improved. But I am unsure about the improvement in camera, I did not get any chance to compare RN3, Le2, Zenfone 3,Moto Z Play, OP3T in real world so that I can decide moving to these phones would be an improvement in camera.

  • Yes , it supports OTG.

  • There is a app to make the finger print sensor to work as a home button and options to decide how the finger print sensor to work. Try that.

  • Charger is dead silent. Had my Moto Z Play since October, especially love loooong battery life and super fast fingerprint sensor.

  • Hi, first of all, why do you want to change? Which part of your M8 Eye is no longer satisfactory? My guess it is the battery losing charge, but otherwise your device should still be fine and able to meet your daily requirements (gaming, music, camera) I would also suggest to wait a month or two for early 2017 devices to launch with latest technologies. You then can decide whether to pick one of those, or pick a 2016 device with decreased price.

  • Does moto z play supports otg

  • Hi, which is better in performance SD 801 vs 650/652 or 625? My usage would also include gaming (asphalt 8,MC5 etc). I am from India, I own htc one m8 eye and planning to change. Going for redmi note 3/Le2/moto z play/zenfone 3 will be downgrade? Which of these cameras would be an upgrade to htc one m8 eye? Suggest me any phone for my usage which is gaming, camera, music.

  • ..... one another thing is in feb, flagship mobiles will be launched with sd 835 result is better performance & better battery life @approx same price tag so my opinion is will wait 1 or 2 months than decide to which one buy......... no need to hurry. thnx

  • This comparison has been asked numerous times, Z Play vs OP3 or OP3T. Frankly, I feel if we focus on what we WANT from a device and not what we actually NEED, confusion is what we get. Why? Because not a single device has every thing we WANT ;) You choose Moto Z Play if you need any of these: 1. First and foremost, microSD slot. 2. Insanely good battery life. 3. Going modular & stand out. 4. Near vanilla Android. OP3T if you need: 1. Powerhouse CPU and GPU. 2. More RAM. 3. OIS. Those guidelines are not comprehensive and you may add more to them. Just set your priorities right ;)

  • It has dedicated microSD slot and glass back. Con? That should be the fingerprint sensor that does not act as a home button as well. As a result, on-screen buttons eat up some screen space most of the time.

  • Is there any oozing sound from turbo charger while charging moto z play.please help

  • Go with moto z play bcoz the music is not good in one lus 3t,,not better than redmi note 3

  • Which country u r

  • Guys I wanna buy mbl in 30k ..... I love Moto z play bt on other hand 1+3 was killing all the mobiles in the market and now really confused what I want to buy but really I hate china mbls

  • Yes! and its come with dual-SIM with SD card slot... I mean not hybrid!

  • May i know the SAR value of Moto Z play mobile...i.e. type *#07#.. you will know the value

  • well i had the both phones and i stuck with the moto z play its a phenomenal phone with excellent battery life ,you wont know youre using a mid range chipset

  • black is better

  • I have black and it looks very sophisticated, however if you want something catchy go with white

  • I have to renew my cell phone plan, the company gives me free Moto Z play or the Huawei p9 (32gb 3gb ram), which of these 2 recommend I have to choose today, please help me

  • I have to renew my cell phone plan, the company gives me free Moto Z play or the Huawei p9 (32gb 3gb ram), which of these 2 recommend I have to choose today, please help me

  • weather moto z play hav hybrid sim slot or dedicated?? Is it a metal back or plastic back?? Plz say.. And if there is any other cons in it plz say?

  • no aatif .... my interest is only buy a good fon

  • co's proper service center not available in my country

  • When we will get nougat update ,any specific date ??

  • Guys which one is better looking- white or black?

  • does moto z play support wireless display, miracast feature?

  • OP3T has the best performance z play- low power consumption honor - perfect 2 lens camera A9 ---meh peace of sh.... worst option from all you mentioned depands on what you need and prefer

  • hiii same problem i am confused this phones......

  • If same price, then why not go for 6 GB RAM powered with Snapdragon 821 instead of 3GB and snapdragon 625 ?

  • A9 pro

  • That's because the phone does a turbo charging. It's normal and only last until it reaches 80% battery full. Relax and enjoy the ride :)

  • There is no blinker or any led indicators on Moto. All Moto phones have a feature called Active display. Moment you move your phone, screen will display all the notifications ( without unlocking) No need to have led notification or blinkers ( though it has led underneath, but inactive in most of phones)

  • Why would you like to service one plus phones ? There are repairers who do it, then why would you like to do it ? Or is it that you are offering others your service of repairs of one+? No phone is perfect/ best. It all depends on user,how best he / she knows to use it.

  • When will moto z play receive nougat update

  • All the faltus who r in this page am asking you a question I.e after the nougat update in Moto G4 plus the ram management is going high ........ So in the Moto z play also it consists of 2.8 GB this phone is also have the same problem r else it will be a good lag less mbl .....Even page admin can also reply but if no one reply this question then they r just etc

  • Which one should I buy Moto Z Play or SAMSUNG Galaxy A7 2016 Edition ? and Why?

  • Hai i am purchase moto z play last week in tamilnadu..android 7 not update my phone so pls help me ..how update come my phone in tamilnadu....

  • !!! Did anyone get the new update? its MPN24.104-56; probably security/maintenance update...

  • Cons: only 1 things is that *NEW Phone is heating up quite fast while charging. Getting afraid that it will explode after 6 months. Otherwise all features and phone specifications are good. Please justify this. I don't have time to replace this but don't know that replacing with newer one will resolve this issue. Please think of a viable solution asap !!!

  • If your main concern is battery life, Moto Z Play is one of the best. I used the phone heavy for more than 12 hours (calls, text, browsing, YouTube dreaming, Google map, Waze, Shooting games, Emails, IG, Spotify, downloading,installing and uninstalling apps) straight yesterday. By 11pm I had 7% left (started with 92% at 9am) and I still manage to download 3 big games from Google Play. I left it at that and only charge it this morning because the Turbo charge gives me enough juice in less than an hour. Hope this helps!

I think this 3gb was not sufficient for Moto z play if the nougat update was done can u guys suggest me is Moto z play is better for 3 GB or not nd I hate the China's products please don't suggest all those shit to me

  • When the battery is full but charger is still in the charger socket it's continue his charging or its stop charging... But in my mobile the charging symbol is still there when the battery is full it's charging...

  • It worked perfectly. Moto Z play and 3 Moto g4 plays. Ported and up and running in about an hour after talking to customer service. It also took almost an hour to get through. 😉

  • anyone pls suggest me a phone under 28k with dedicated microsd slot.

  • Verizon wirlesss is $17 per month but giving you a $17 per month credit for 24 months. So phone is basically free if you stay with Verizon for 24 months.

  • Any offer for moto z play or discount plz tell me

  • Thanks :)

  • Sourabh Bhai....Better go and buy Asus Zenfone 3 ZE552KL or HTC desire 10 pro.......I hav Moto Z play...But not worth!!

  • Need to check out that....But I had a good experience of GPS on this phone...

  • No Radio receiver chip set. Radio only when WiFi or Internet connection. That's not very good for those who need/like to hear FM radio without internet.

  • Yes, it has.

  • does this phone have corning gorilla glass 4?

  • Accurate even only with a-gps? No glonass or others gps

  • Yes GPS is perfect

  • Is it has finger print sensor???

  • Over a month with this phone i can say la the best phone Everest owned . Súper fast no lagg at all very good campera and recording vídeos its superb..People hoy surprieswd when i say ojitos and vídeos are frontera this phone..Battery la amazona after two data of normal use still have like 30%..I really recomendaciones this phone

  • How is the gps? Is it accurate? Gps is one of my priority

  • Hey.. The camera on motorola z play won't impress you as the nexus 6p. 6p has a much better camera with OIS. Depending on your budget I would also suggest you the oneplus3t. Oneplus3t will definitely cost you more, but it's totally worth it as it has sd821 with a 16mpx camera both rear and front with OIS and dash charger. If camera is your utmost priority then stick with nexus 6p, but again 6p has some issues, Nexus 6P owners are experiencing early shutdowns and there is still no fix..You can check out the news in gsmarena itself it's dated on 20 dec I guess. I would also suggest you s7 or s7 edge in regards to the camera..

  • Hey guys!! I'm thinking to update to this phone or Nexus 6p maybe. I'd like to buy one with a very good camera in all conditions. Which is better?? Nexus or Motorola?

  • I think there is no provision for grouping contacts in moto z play

  • No no dude..... Myself had checked I am not lying I am having all 3 phones in my family

  • Higher resolution does not necessarily mean better camera. But one thing I'm sure is, Z Play has the more efficient chipset & bigger battery, which should mean significantly better battery life.

  • If camera is your priority,then buy a good camera. Why do you want to change PHONE for that? Iphone 6 still performs good.

  • urghh, no wifi AC!

  • don't worry.. its natural by fast charging options

  • Moto G4 for 1 year and then getting a replacement or the Moto Z Play for 2 years before a replacement? I also have heard some issues with the Moto Z Play in regards to issues with 5GHz wifi connection being weak, any thoughts on this? Also how do the cameras compare as this is important.

  • HTC desire 10 pro has better camera than Moto z play and OP 3T. Choice is yours....

  • It is normal this happens due to fast charging charger. Hence don't worry!

  • When I'm charging Moto Z Play I am felling very warm both side of my phone. Is it normal?

  • My father is using moto g 4 plus And it's camera is good in all lightening conditions Moto z play camera is better than g4 plus

  • So i should go for moto z play or or stick with my iPhone 6 .camera is priority. There is much difference in cameras of both devices or marginal Thanks in advance

  • thanks a lot brother for the information.

  • Thanks for the info..

  • Dual nano sim and sd card slot r made together in the sim/sd card tray on the top of the device

  • Z play also has laser auto focus dude

  • So at the end of 2016 Only moto G4 plus, G4, moto z play and the moto z are the only device which were decent from Lenovo/ moto The moto M is a crap.....it is more of a LENOVOish device rather than a Motorola phone

  • Not at all man.....even moto G4 plus has better camera than that of z play because of that laser auto focusing system

  • Indian version Is z play dual sim along with sd card support? If so where is the slot for sd card.. also how is the amoled display on z play?

  • Moto z play camera is better than iphone 6 . Please reply.

  • Thanks for your reply. Im using ipone 6 16 GB.moto z camera Is better than iphone 6 or not please reply

  • Flipkart delivery boy check IMIE number Check display if there is any cracks Check charging of mobile at least one minute Check 30 second for mobile charge sustained or not. Original box not necessary.and accessories may not required but you must ready with this items . Please check in internet with Flipkart exchange policy

  • Better to avoid Mediatek processor of Moto M Buy today because today is last day of Flipkart offer.

  • moto z play price 2500 better battery fast charging decent camera (will be better than moto m) moto m metal body medaitek chipset (which will be downgrade) dolby atmos speakers

  • Average buddy

  • Its well seems in lg g4 .. and in ur list more better z play and honor

  • If you are into heavy gaming and do stuff that requires more processing power, go for Oneplus3. It has a good battery that will last you almost a day if you are mid level user. It doesnt have a microSD slot, but 64 GB of space (arnd 55 gb available) should be enough. Moto Z PLay will give you lot better battery, almost same gaming experience and better update cycle of Android. Since OP3 is discontinued, One plus might abandond software updates for it after it gives it Nougat (no promise when). you can save 5k by buying MotoZ PLay or invest 3K more and buy OP3T.

  • awesome discount... I too ordered ot from Flipkart. exchanged my 2 year ols Xperia z2 for 7800 and got the SBI debit card discount of 1500. Total discount of 9300 and final price of 15749.

  • Both are good dear Moto m only has hybrid sim slot but price base its better than to Moto Z play and Moto Z play has unique features of Moto mods so it's only depends on your needs and product price

  • Xiaomi Redme 4 prime has no super amoled display,no NFC

  • I am using this phone from last 3 weeks everything is good about this phone except camera which lacks performance compared to other phones at this price range.

  • * Superb build quality glass+metal, looks very premium protected with c/gorilla glass 4 on both sides even better than op 3. 6"crystal clear screen I rate it at par with op 3 in this aspect. awsm battery 5000 mAH, loud sound. m/card upto 256 gb, 4 gb ram is more than enough, fast charging speed is almost equivalent to op 3's dash charging, no hang or lag. * pretty average front and rear cameras, op 3 has a better camera quality. sometimes, while charging it heats up a lot and sometimes doesn't. op3 never heats up. little heavy comparision with op3 is light weight. I read this phone doesn't have a gyroscope sensor although op3 has all the sensors that a flagship should have. *Personally, op3 spec is good & it has everything that you should expect from a flagship phone but worst in after service/software updation/parts availability. So it depends on your choice now!

  • I switched to Moto z play from iPhone 5s And seriously m very happy with this phone. Very good display,beast battery,mod support all n all it's a really really good phone. M super impressed.

  • Hello all, I'm in the process of changing my mvno. I now have 5 lines with Cricket (At&t) and use a OP3. I have recently moved and now need Verizon's network. I am planning on moving 4 lines to Total Wireless (TW) and dropping the last. So I'm preparing for the conversion, and will be needing new phones. I like the ZTE Axon 7 but what I really want is the "Moto Z Driod Play" ( ) on TW. So I've been reading for what seems like days and need some help or clarification. I chatted with a rep on moto's site and asked him that very question. Can I activate a Moto Z Driod Play on a mvno like "Streight Talk" or "Total Wireless"? He said yes, just use the BYOP option and it'd be no problem. I then found this link ( ), which seems to contradict what the rep told me. Although the Moto X Pure and Moto G's seem like they'd work fine. I have called TW customer service and they said it would not be a problem so long as i wasn't under contract to Verizon. They told me to get the IMEI and that they could check it. Problem is to do that I'd have to buy the phone. It seems that they do not even list the IMEI's in ebay auctions any more. I found a link where I could check ( ) though I do not have an IMEI. I didn't think phones could really be locked any more but it sure seems that way. Maybe the Axon 7 would be a better idea? I was hoping that someone that really knows and understands the process could give me some pointers. I would really appreciate it Thanks for your time, Tom

  • Great Review. How is it compared to Samsung A9 Pro Gold?

  • Is this for Moto Z Play?

  • Moto Mods , Expandable storage up to 2TB , Low power consumption , Stock Android , Low heating

  • Moto z play

  • x play!!!

  • better go for moto M

  • Go for x style

  • Op3t

  • any suggestion lenovo k6 power or moto x play ?

  • very disappointed design, i have never seen protruding camera lens in Motorola mobiles before. i like motorola phone designed only by motorola California.

  • GSMARENA review this phone please

  • Any buddy suggest me that after 100% of charging it's disconnect or its still charging while charger is connected

  • Yes jio is working

  • Extremely Disappointed ! Less than a month into using the Stylised Moto z play, the display conks off. Without any rhyme or reason. I could attend calls but without knowing who is calling. With all difficulty I find sparingly few service centres in a big metro like Mumbai. Take a half day leave to go to the service centre. And I get to know that due to some technical problem in the phone it will take 15 days to get my phone back. All my data had to be wiped off .... My Tempered glass will be a waste of money now.... without a phone for one full day I beg, borrow a spare phone of a friend. Been around 15 days now, I am told more 7 days. I call up Chennai office several times. Each time I am told , I will be given a call in a day.. No surprises - no call. And to my dismay I cannot be returned a new phone - replacement is only within 10 days. Voila ! 25k phone breaks down within a month with no remorse from company people !.. a real Z play in my life- quite literally !

  • Hell yeah!

  • I think so Yes.... Have read sumwer

  • Working

  • Jio sim is working in this phone?

  • Any news for 7.0 update????? hi heard moto G4/G4+ is getting???when will z play get it???

  • Im using this phone for 3 days now. Seriously impressed! I have owned more than 15 phones in the past. Trust me the Z Play really shines for it's price. It awesome value for money and it does not stop there. It's fast, stylish, faultless in every way! Also I confirm the network signal is amazing, also you hear people much louder and clearer and they hear you better and clearer because it has 3 mics instead of 2. Amazing phone.

  • thanks dear.....

  • i think u don't now about basic difference btwn z play & rn3p

  • Can you tell me what makes moto z better than op3T??

  • Hello Dolly, U can go for Moto Z Play, It's confirmed on amazon website that it has Gorilla Glass-4 Screen

  • Xiaomi RN3P tho

  • Have you tried it? Please post some source or evidence.

  • all my dear sir, i want to buy my first smartphone after getting my first salary in Jan, 2017. i make up my mind to buy z-play, but big problem is display not covered by the corning gorilla glass 4 so how to save display/screen? plz suggest. thnx n regards

  • If you have a budget for 25K - then stop looking around for anything else and get z-play. this one far better then op 3T (spec on papers; after 3-4 month performance will downgrade in all segment) & other device range 25-30k.

  • one side of op3 is gr8 but ........ this one is the other side of op3/coin ...... thank u for open my eyes

  • 1+3T spec is good, but worst in after service/software updation/parts availability. no one care when problems create in phone then we feel helpless- v don't buy the costlier phone when facing the problem, thrown it n buy new one or will wait 1+4 ......this is one plus company history ...... plz check site, forum ...... no dear no........ don't waste ur hard earned money....... they sell their phone @high configuration n thereafter no care to resolve the serious issues ......more than 70% users are frustrated from one plus n its products. conclusion: strongly avoid, u will invest there one's who care u. thnx

  • ..... n wt about 1+3T thnx

  • Z-play stock android, made in India, is really awesome *display-full hd/super amoled gr8 vewing *speaker-front speaker brilliant sound *battery- super best *fingerprint-this finger print is fastest than ever *build quality-awesome with style mods *camera- day light best/low light average/no OIS *charge-it's takes 1.52 hrs from 1% to 100% *video- 4k ultra @ 30 fps & slow motion also recording *dual sim n sd Card can attach same time *software-sd 625 fast n accurate, runs heavy games & heavy multitasking w/o hanging/ lagging. 3 gb ram n do all the job completely good (what 6 gb ram phone do) *32 gb/ expandable 2Tb(256 gb) *software is very good *it does not heats up @gaming, photography n multitasking but heats up @ charging *earphone is low quality but decent in sound *no video calling available through Volte *wi-fi ac & dlna not available. conclusion: The best and highly recommend to all

  • Dark shadow u really clear my all doubt thanx . Everyone should give opinion in that way . Very clear and very satisfying. Thanx again . I m also buying moto z play

  • Dark shadow u really clear my all doubt thanx . Everyone should give opinion in that way . Very clear and very satisfying. Thanx again . I m also buying moto z play

  • .. confused btwn z-play n 1+3T...... now surly will purchase z-play ...... thnx dear

  • nice thought ........ thnx

  • also services of one plus are not reliable. although i dont believe that any company gives reliable services but still there is this mental satisfaction that even if something happens it can be repaired. So that satisfaction is completely lacking in one plus.

  • u have to prioritize what do you want - one plus 3 - sheer performance, best on paper specs, when you"ll take it out of your pocket, people will say "oh one plus 3" (or 3t). No stutters no lags. But to be true nothing exciting as well. Just another phone with best possible specs at a very good price. Plus fastest charging capabilities. moto Z play - Very average specifications, when you take out of pocket, people see it, they wont recognize it, they ask "looks cool which phone?" on paper it might look very average but in real world its fast and smooth. Surely u'll have to wait a few seconds more while the game is loading (as compared to one plus) but gameplay will be as smooth as u can get. Then if you want to flaunt you can get those mods sooner or later which just make this device seriously different than all others in the market. (But mods are seriously expensive as well). Not the fastest charging device but surely the battery life is one of the best in market. So practically this device also makes sense. In the end it will all come to you. You buy one plus 3 people might say wow (and haters will also be there who will say nothin special) you buy moto z play, people wont say anything but when you'll explain what it is definitely they will say wow. (haters can only say - mid range processor at such a high price but you know its not slow) so depends on you, what you want. best specs on paper or practicality.? snapdragon 835 wont come at this price tag. Personally I believe that, this processor also wont retain the flagship tag for long as there will be a new successor so rather than just looking at figures just make sure practically what will make sense to you?

  • Plz suggest with thanx in advance: 1. will buy z-play or op 3T 2. or wait till mobile with chipset sd 835 will be launched. co's sd 835 have power of technology to improve the design, performance & battery system of a mobile. r u agree?

  • I am using this fone last 15 days it's just awesome. No single issue I found in this fone. Super fone. Awesome battery awesome screen awesome performance it's not value for money it's more than value of money

  • Hi, I'm in saudi. Here this phone is not available. If I bought from india, will it work with the network here?

  • Both front & back camera is good, so please don't complaint or spend some extra bucks and get a DSLR camera!!

  • i used this phone 18 days all are good just average camera . no heat and lag in dtd performance -kevo mobile

  • I agree

  • dear sid, my opinion is u will buy low budget good fon as sd 835 introduced & mobile with sd 835 chipset will be launched upto Ist qtr of 2017 & these mobiles are superior with comparison to present available devices. so i think u will wait 3-4 months & then buy. if u hv sufficient budget then go for moto z play its a nice fon.

  • Thanx in advance . I m not a hardcore gamer i use any my smartphone for calling 1 hour ,net surfing 2 or 3 hour ,social media like whats app n fb rarely max 2 hours in a day , that's why moto z play is sufficient for my purpose and I want brand name also service centre . So instead of op3t i prefer moto z play is my next smartphone . After samsung note 2 use from 3 yrs . If u agree or disagree with my opinion plz reply me .

  • You should buy it and kinda costly .

  • Moto mods free or buy?????

  • Nay, Moto Z Play for me, if I have to choose between the two. As fellow commenter before me pointed out, Z Play scores many wins over OP3T too, so it is NOT a no-brainer pick. Each has its own advantages and everyone should choose according to his own priorities. Btw, there is still ZTE Axon 7 that bests OP3T in both specs and bang-for-buck factors. It may not be available in your area though.

  • You need to download the Motorola Radio app for that.

  • Moto mods, FM radio, Motorola Assist, long battery life, better design, SD card support, and cheaper price make this a win over the 1+3T for me. Yeah the 3T has the raw spec sheet, but unless you're a hardcore gamer, it's power you don't need.

  • for raw performance and better camera go for 1+3t. and for better battery and pure stock android go for z play.its ur choice.

  • 25k for Snapdragon 625 and 30k for Snapdragon 821. Z play got nothing except battery backups where op3t gets you everything for extra 5k.

  • OP3T is way better than z play in every aspect, go for it don't pay 25k for Snapdragon 625.. Xpt battery backup z play got nothing as compare to op3t.

  • One plus 3t is a beast you should go for op3t with your eyes 👀 closed.

  • Love my new Moto Z Play - the battery life is incredible. I used it hard for 24 hours with occasional GPS, a bright display, lots of video and some still and video camera use and basically constant use, and it still had battery when I eventually plugged it in. Not sure I'll get any mods. Why does the feature tale show FM Radio? I don't see any way to access one, if it exists. Am I missing something?

  • Paying 25k for this phone is worth

  • Ya bro it has separate sd card slot and has turbocharging.. full charge in 109min.and nano dual sim slot

  • Moto Z is a good phone right now in the market

  • can u tell me plz z-play is better than 1+3T? co's i will purchase a mobile between two.

  • Yes

  • hy every one! is this phone have 1--separate sd card slot? 2--fast battery charging option?? tnx in advance!

  • Ya bro.. that the only time the device heats up.. I played asphalt 8 on ma Moto z play.. no heat .. no lag..

  • MicroSD slot, Moto Mods, front facing speaker.

  • hello psp, u r right, now my confusion is z play- no DLNA, no wlan ac, processor also week comparison to sd 821 than what are plus point with z-play? (except battery n 5k))

  • Bro the heating of the phone is due to the fast charging...which doesnt mean the phone will get heated up by doing something else!

  • Yup...the camera at night looks very fair...low light performance at this phone is not up to the mark..the lack of ois make the phone a bit down in market sale..but the gaming performance and battery after very high usage is phenomenal!!!just love it...and u too enjoy the stock android...planning upgrade fr nougat!!

  • Go 4 moto z play, really a beautiful phone and a battery beast as well :-)

  • Go for moto z play, gr8 battery backup, gr8 processor, beautiful design and a very reliable brand, save those extra 5k bucks...

  • SAR Head 0,396W Body 1,4 W

  • I m confuse between op3t and moto z play . I loves moto z play but only few thousand adding we got 821 snaprdrg processor with very good camera 16back plus 16 front . Only problem is if have hardware issue then where is op3t service center any solution plz clear my confusion

  • Any idea when this phone will get nougat update?

  • Phone is super good. Only con is camera

  • There's no radio..

  • if you want service, software upgrades timely, stock android experience, sd card, best music then go with moto. If camera, games is more important n you will pay more thousands then go for 1+3T. suppose u will face any hardware issue wt will u do? there is no service center of 1+3T. my opinion is moto z play is better than 1+3T.

  • No device is showing in cast screen I have to download the screen stream app which is a bit slower side on my smart TV Anybody facing the same problem

  • Hi, I am looking to buy this phone via Flipkart with exchange and I am getting a good deal on my old phone which has started heating up. But I am confused if I should wait for a newer phone till christmas/new year. or buy a G4plus to get me thru a year and then buy a flagship?

  • good mobile,camera is average,good battery backup

  • Moto should make this phone available in Ghanaian market for us to buy in the market place. I want to buy Moto z play but can't find it in Ghanaian market. Motorola to help us get this phone to buy

  • it has gorilla glass in front..

  • This phone is fantastic. go ahead & buy it. good look & premium feel in hand. battery life is very good. lasts almost 2 days in general usage. camera good.

  • Yes it has a gorilla glass

  • Does this phone protected with gorilla glass? nothing mentioned anywhere. Practical users, please reply. What kind of protection at front and back glasses and over camera?

  • thanks for your support #bubs am gonna buy moto

  • I hav order this phone ..will share the experiences soon...

  • Can we connect external typing keypad to this mobile while the projector mod is on and use Excel word etc. if yes how can we use it via Bluetooth WiFi dongle ?

  • Best phone

  • its bad ass, its not the best in the market but its definitely up there..

  • This phone is currently free through Verizon

  • My frd have u purchased this phone and when, I'm planning to purchase this phone should u buys it how is the camera in night any one who has it plz post ur true comments

  • moto Z play is better, it has the SD card slot. one plus 3 doesn't. no competition.

  • Does anyone know if this phone can shoot RAW images with third party apps? Please someone who actually has the phone answer with their experience on using it to capture RAW photos. Also don't tell me about the hasselblad mod, I already know that takes RAW images. I'm asking about that phone itself with 3rd party RAW shooting apps like manual camera or open camera.

  • Z Play is cheaper that the regular Z, thus some corners has to be cut, with OIS is one of them. The camera mod's strength lies on its Xenon flash and 10x optical zoom.

  • I would go for Moto Z Play because of its superior battery life, microSD slot, near-vanilla Android, and unique Moto Mods feature, while the rest of specs is good enough. Your needs and priorities may vary.

  • Why is there no OIS on this? Even the camera MOD doesn't have OIS and the mod has a lower resolution which also eludes me. The phone totally cought my attention though, I just can't understand why the Moto Z has OIS and this iteration doesn't nor the camera mod.

  • Please go for Moto if you want good support, Software upgrades and pure android experience(No bloatware). If camera and video recording with OIS is your primary task, Please go for OnePlus 3T.

  • If you want good quality music in earphone then go for moto z play.

  • guys am totaly confused abt moto z play nad one plus 3t plz tell me which was farr better

  • Moto is back it is wonderful phone

  • when u upload sample capture from moto z play

  • when u upload sample capture from moto z play

  • I've had the the Moto Z Play for a few days now and I love it! It is as loaded with "features and fun" as my Samsung Notes' that I have had in the past. I feel that it is a "Flagship" phone at half the price. There is nothing so far that is not high quality. For $449 it is a bargain. I had decided that it was ridiculous to pay close to $1000 for a PHONE ! So I searched hard for an option and the Z Play is it. Even if I find something not quite to my liking I wont mind as it is an awesome piece of equipment with even more features than I need at a much more reasonable price.

  • Yes buddy. It Worth's it's every penny. I am happy with it.

  • Worth or worthless is subject to how well you know to use the gadget. If you know how to use, even Moto E3 Power is a worthy choice. If you don't know how to use, even flagships ( any brand of your choice) are a worthless choice.

  • Moto z play

  • Anyone who has this. Is it worth the price?

  • Heats up only when charging as it's has turbocharging.. 109 min for full charge..

  • Go for Moto z play.. has better processor sd 625, 16 mp rear cam with 4 k video recording. 3510 mah battery.. android 6.. ready for Android 7 ... the only plus point of oppo f1 plus is the selfie cam which is 16 mp..

  • moto z play n 1+3T both r amazing

  • Guys plz suggest me which one is better - oppo f1 plus or moto z play. with review plz

  • Who said gaming performance is poor in moto z play...its doing fine with high end games and no lagging at all...battery performance after a high end use is incredible....just go for moto z play!😊

  • while. charging

  • phone is heating yes or no plise reply to me

  • Do you do a lot of gaming? If so, go for the OnePlus 3, as games are buttery smooth. If you don't do much gaming, but need your phone to last you a day of heavy use and then some, go for the Moto Z Play.

  • Hi Guys, I just want to know that which phone better between moto z play or one plus 3

  • it has gorilla glass protection or not..????

  • thanks dear

  • chip set 625, wi-fi 802.11ac not available also glass protection & radio n.a. guys please suggest me it is worth buying. performance wise it is good one or wait 1+3T?

  • No option for Radio

  • Where's the review!?

  • I have a OnePlus 3 and I really like it. It's insanely smooth and it's everything I need. But if you're trying to save money, I'd go with the z play because according to all reviews I've seen, the performance is really good still and super smooth. The battery life is much better as well.

  • guys plz suggest which device is better between z-play & 1+3T? 1+3T cons: no sd card, service center not available, price 32K ; z-play cons: poor chipset 625, Wi-Fi 802.11ac not available, price 25K.

  • yes

  • is that battery that good, really looking forward to get this, but seeing below 4000mah, have some doubts, i am lte all the day with data on with a secondary sim, not much into gaming, alot of voice calls,,music and surfing. with this usage pattern will it last a complete day?

  • Moto z play

  • 802.11ac not available, what effect on mobile?

  • We purchased it from Flipkart on the day mobile was available. And the display unit turned black in 15 days and service centre declared that it was broken and the seller declined saying its not under warranty. Display unit is so delicate that it broke just by carrying in pockets and the whole unit would cost 12K for replacement which is not even available in market.

  • "Moto Z Play doesnot have an inbuilt FM radio. One need to download external Motorola FM radio app for this if it founds compatible with phone" Please let us explain you more detail how to install FM radio that works without an Internet connection. Thank you.

  • Do you FM radio on the motto Z play can to working on spikerfonu? I wonder, because we my old Moto G, FM radio could not on the speaker-only slusalice. Bye!

  • I love this phone.. I just got this phone last saturday.. Awesome performance mostly if you use tsf laucher. Hehehehe my problem is the battery stays that long even if i want to charger it i can't because the battery still high.. Excited to get the speaker and projector

  • yes it does, takes less than 2h to fully charge

  • Not hard to type at all

  • Yes

  • Moto z play support fast charging option ot not?...

  • Z play

  • Moto Z Play. Battery life is insanely long. CPU & GPU are more powerful.

  • hi guys, plz suggest me wch mobile to buy moto g 4th generation or moto z play... i am in confussion... plz suggest me....

  • hi guys, plz suggest me wch mobile to buy moto g 4th generation or moto z play... i am in confussion... plz suggest me....

  • is there any problem non wifi ac in moto z play?

  • Is the display sensitive enough and is it easy to type or scroll on the phone? I have hua wei y pro and even if I adjust the sensitivity it is still hard to type.

  • Guys stop telling stupid things. It is compatible with WiFi @ 5 GHz and it has a great camera and a huge autonomy The specifications announced here are not always accurate

  • so so camera, fragile body, and good luck with software update

  • I was looking at the non Play. The play is NOT ac: 802.11 a/b/g/n 2.4 GHz + 5 GHz

  • Disappointing it isn't 802.11ac.

  • amazing battery

  • They are all excellent options and it ultimately is down to one's priorities to pick one over the others. If you must have microSD slot and near-vanilla Android, Moto Z Play is the way to go. Power users shall delight in OP3T and Mi Note 2 with their SD820(821) and big RAM, although Z Play is fluid enough for daily tasks.

  • plz review
