Have finally bought a new phone as my aging Sony Xperia XA1 Ultra is getting on a bit now and major feature i love with this G9 Play is that it's not packed with a load of useless built in apps that'll never use (unlike my old Xperia was) Get in Motorola i'm so impressed.

    Picked one of these up a few days ago from Argos for £99. Got to say it was an absolute steal! Phone handles great and feels well built. The 4gb ram is a nice bonus on a budget device as a lot of others in the same price bracket are rocking 2 or 3gb.

    Hi Chris. I have just bought this phone in forest green . I've had a Moto g 3rd gen for 4 years which a great phone . I was originally drawn to the Moto g8 but this came out with improved colour temperature and contrast ratio making screen quality very good despite only 720p . And the speaker / headphone quality also very good . Then add on NFC + 48 megapixel camera + night vision . What a fantastic phone ! Absolutely love it ! Thanks for your video reviews . 🙂.

    I have an iPhone SE but have recently been looking at budget phones to replace it as the battery is quite bad with my 8 hours and 48 minutes average. I feel like I'm constantly charging it even though I keep it on low power mode. I mainly just wanted a low budget phone that can support a game like CoD Mobile as last week I spent 36 hours and eight minutes on the app. Thank you so much for your great review! it really helped with my decision making.

    Macro mode depending on your job can be VERY USEFUL.
    Electronics engineers may need to take close up pictures of tiny areas, such as quality issues on solder joints, for instance, 0402 or even 0201 SMD components on circuit boards.
    It's a welcome bonus...if it works well of course!
    I agree though pretty useless for most people.

    Just bought this for my mum, she's had my old Moto G2 and Moto G3's in the past, but decided to get her a phone from new this time.. this actually cost less than what I paid for the Moto G3 and looks so much better. The electric blue colour is ace, great screen, for the money it's a quality phone. Motorola rarely miss the mark with their G series phones. Mum was complaining the battery wasn't lasting on her old phone, with this whopper inside it should last a whole day even with the amount she gasses on it! :-)

    I have it for about a week, but when someone passes me video through WhatsApp it comes awfully pixelated. When I shoot a video with the phone, there's no problem at all. I've tried everything possible to change the video's quality and there is no result. Any ideas why this is happening and how to fix it?

    So basically Motorola brought a truck load of components released the G8 models, but for some reason had loads of parts left. Hence the G9 is largely a repeat of the same components. If you don't need NFC or 5G then there very little point getting a G9 over a G8 (with Android 10)
