  • Today I'm going to be taking a look at the Motorola G Play 2024, possibly the first time ever when a G Play device is worth a look.

    I got this phone 11-29-24. & It upgraded to Android 14 the next morning. The sound is terrific and when I'm in my bedroom which is basically a drop zone for signals, this one continues with business.
    In my opinion that no one asked for
    It runs with the big dogs and can hold its own too.

    Why would it not be worth a look? Do you only review phones for those with tons of money? ie. rich people? This (and the last 3 models I've owned) have been fantastic for me, and at an absolutely UNBEATABLE PRICE. For the price, you get A LOT MORE THAN YOU DESERVE. This phone is fantastic, I have the 2019, the 2021, and the 2022. I only got the 2022 because I dropped the 2021... Or I would've waited another year. $100-$150 per 2 years is phenomenal... Best budget phone in existence. Stop talking trash about budget phones. It's just plain ignorant.

    • @techshowyt
      @techshowyt  15 дней назад

      To be honest, I'm basing this review more on the experience of others I know who have owned these phones, not myself, so in that sense I agree there are probably some things I don't know about them. That being said, everyone I know who has owned a Moto G Play device prior to the 2024 model have been extremely disappointed with the usability, reliability, and durability of these phones. Usually they end up paying a little more to get something like a Google Pixel A series device (especially preowned or refurbished) and that seems to work much better, and those cost only slightly more than a Moto G.

    This phone out performs my samsung a15 for a little less money. This moto has way less issues than my Samsung a15 has so I'm glad I got the moto to replace it

    I ALWAYS HEAR SO MANY PEOPLE CRITICISMS ON MOTOROLA PHONES. WHAT I LOVE ABOUT SOME OF MOTOROLA PHONES THEY ACTUALLY HAVE "STEREO SPEAKERS SOUND" I DON'T THINK IF ANYONE PAYS UP TO $1,000 PLUS FOR AN IPHONE OR A SAMSUNG GALAXY YOU WILL GET STEREO SOUND IN ANY OF THEM. IF I'M INCORRECT SOMEONE KINDLY CORRECT ME. I'M GOING TO BE A MOTOROLA MAN UNTIL I DIE!

    I got this phone a few months ago and use it as a second phone for work/business. It works great and for the price it's super affordable. I got mine through simple mobile on a prepaid plan.

    Seems like a good phone, also the camera really isn’t that bad to me. My phone broke, so this seems like the perfect replacement.

    I’m pretty sure the Dolby Atmos stuff is related to supporting surround-sound / Spatial Audio in media that is designed for it.

    • @techshowyt
      @techshowyt  8 дней назад

      I thought maybe that was the case too. But I tried several streaming/music services that have Dolby Atmos content, and it all sounded the same to me, I still preferred the sound out of my other devices.
      I know It's kind of nitpicky but It doesn't seem like a great feature if it doesn't benefit the average user.

  • @charlessaints
    @charlessaints 24 дня назад +2

    watching on my 2024 g play and you got it 100%. I'm not a heavy camera user and the atmos dolby is only a volume booster, but i't awesome for the price. plus it updated to android 14 (i don't think it'll get any more).
    it's just that flash that i find really funny 😂. i recommend it for someone that just wants it for basic stuff. and the virtual ram is better off not being used. in the long run, virtual memory will ruin the internal memory and there is really no difference in performance, especially if you're doing basic stuff. just make sure you close apps you aren't using to get the most out of the available ram.
    great review 👍

      I agree, this phone is a great comeback for Motorola and I'm excited to see if they continue to drastically improve the G Play line.

    I have just recently bought this Phone and have not tried the apps. That is why i am using youtube to learn about it. The first thing I noticed with this one is that it wastes battery charge by being activated too easily with almost any touch or motion.
