one of the best

Best phone for reception and battery life hands down. If you need good signal and the absolute best battery life of any smartphone, this is it. Display is sharp, camera is good for most people and i cant really think of any negatives except size maybe. Its very large, but you get 5.5" screen. the processor is plenty fast. I have yet o see it slow down. Fingerprint reader is accurate and fast. Get it!

Definitely best Android phone I used!!

Hands down best phone I've ever had since my Note 5. I had a huge review I typed up and my dumbass just hit the back button. The z play, I've yet had to reboot it or have it freeze or lag and I've had it for the last month. I really don't rate or give feedback but for this phone I will give it my opinion. It got me off the 6s+ surprisingly. Yes I said it! A mid-range phone sold me!! Love the size, the options, the processor, camera is good but I do that think it's as good as my iPhone was. Only complaint I have and it's not even a huge deal is that the front flash (which I haven't seen a phone have it regardless) doesn't work with Snapchat. Def gotta recommend it. I was gonna go go with the iPhone 7 but I just didn't see it had a huge difference from the 6 it 6s so I decided to stick with Android. Loved the Note 5 hands down best Android phone I've had but I just always switched back and forth from those 2 phones cause I just wasn't content with the note but like I said. Best Android phone I ever used and it got me off my Apple and I don't see myself missing it at all!! I was a Sprint rep for 10 years and had every phone ever for free. When I left I went to Verizon and I had to get a new phone. Loved the price more than anything. $11 a month. Yes the bill is high but it's better than $35 a month and really with phones, money's not an option cause you're gonna have the phone for a while. Check it out. EJ out!

Longest lasting battery EVER
Deprecated: Function utf8_encode() is deprecated in /home/pscoop/web-prod/phones/user_reviews.php on line 1562
I've had this phone for a week and I've only had to charge it three times. First charge lasted 48 hours. I was shocked. I've had dozens of phones and none have even come close to this battery life. And I'm a heavy user, including hotspot, movies, etc. The specs are decent and everything works that I need it to. The fingerprint sensor also locks the phone. For $400 it is my opinion that this is the best value out there. A very decent phone. I had the Pixel XL and returned it as I didn't want to support an $800 phone, and it had a lot of things that I didn't need. This phone was upgraded to Android 7.0 a few days before I got it. Buttery smooth.
Update: A coupla months later, still going strong. Just tried out the Samsung S8+ and returned it after 2 days. Moto much more user friendly. Still does everything I want it to. Found out that the z play 2 will have a smaller battery, so will keep this for awhile. Best phone I ever had.
