“The handset is equipped well enough to stand its ground against most of its competitors mainly because of its price advantage. We weren't exactly happy with the camera capabilities and the overall performance. And by performance we don't mean benchmarks, but the general feel when navigating through menus and using the device for everyday tasks. Besides, the key selling point of Motorola phones is the snappy, clean Android. We didn't see much of the snappy part in this model, unfortunately.”

“The Motorola Moto G9 Play is a successful, affordable smartphone, which has good performance and a lot of staying power, but not such a good camera.”

“The new entry-level champ in Moto's roster is excellent value for money and has all the essential elements of a noteworthy affordable phone: it has excellent battery life, big display, good camera, and most importantly, killer price.”

“The Moto G9 Play offers excellent value for money. It packs reliable performance that's comparable to more expensive budget phones but outdoes them too with incredible battery life – all at a humble price. The G9 Play's biggest flaw is its camera, which produces low contrast, grainy images. The display is bright but it's not the punchiest. It will disappoint if you're used to a more sophisticated screen too. All said, if you need a simple phone for social media and casual gaming, or are buying the first phone for your child, you can't go wrong with Moto G9 Play.”
