I bought this phone as a cost effective option for my 11 year old granddaughter (who lives with me) last summer. I am very pleased with the phone performance and reception in our area ( which isn't typically great). We save on the monthly plan as I instructed to use wifi whenever possible to save data for when needed. I have since bought the same exact phone for my two grandsons as well. The sound is loud and clear, battery life is good, and the camera is also pretty good! I would definitely recommend if you like android operating system and want to save on monthly expenses, especially for kids. I was able to put parental controls and limits on the phone since it is Google based and they're under my account.

I've used iPhones since 2011. Updating phones every year. IPhone 13 was my last expensive phone. I wasted so much money on phones and phone companies. This phone is perfect. I don't use streaming services, and working from home all my shopping and entertainment is on my computer and Television. Track phone works well and I can change numbers or phone without crazy extra cost.

It's not bad for a backup phone. I'm not sure I would use it as a primary phone. Major pros are the price, runs Android, easy to activate, fully functional and runs the basics of Android, runs on Verizon's Network. Cons. Slow recharging speed even using a 35 watt PD fast charger, screen lags and is a little unresponsive on touch, takes about 2 and 1/2 hours initially to download all of the Android updates (luckily you only have to do it once). I needed a cheap backup emergency phone that I would use in case my primary phone konks out. This fits the bill perfectly. It comes with one year year TracFone service albeit with a small amount of data, talk time and number of texts. However, since it's for me, it's a backup phone. The one-year plan is a plus, especially at this price. I recommend it. Update 1-21-2026 Now that I've had and used the phone for a while, I thought I would update my review. I stand by the four stars. It is a good backup phone and for light to moderate use, it's an okay phone to use. The fingerprint reader is integrated to the on off button . The cable that comes with the phone has a USBC connector on one end and a USBA connector on the other end. The phone doesn't come with a charger, so if your charger at home is a USB C connector, the cable that comes with the phone won't work with your charger. You'll need to order another USBC to USBC cable. Also, the phone only has 64 gig of storage. It does have the capability of expanding storage via MicroSD card. You can pick up a cheap 128 GB SD card Amazon brand. The phone also comes with a SIM tool which what you'll need because the SD card resides with your Sim card. If you use the SD card for your photos, go into the camera app settings and change where the photos will be kept in your DCIM folder. In your photos app settings under backup scroll down and select backup device folders. Make sure the pictures, folder and dcim folder are backed up from the SD card not the phone. I was able to reduce the lag time on phone startup by deleting most of the bloatware apps that come with the phone. I'd suggest deleting all the apps that you're not going to use after you activate the phone. That includes a ton of games of the Candy Crush variety. Youtube and ticktock work fine. So it's okay for playing videos. The phone will walk you through activation but in my case it took about 10 minutes before the process started. I didn't initiate it. Activation was simple and easy, but you'll need to sign into the TracFone account app which activation will walk you through. Charging time is still slow even though Motorola says it's turbocharging. My phone arrived 63% charged and it took 2 and 1/2 hours for it to charge to 100%.. I was using a 35 w PD fast charger to charge the phone. So if you extrapolate how long it took to charge the phone about 40%. It will take about 4 and 1/2 to 5 hours to fully charge a depleted phone. The phone comes with Android 14 as stated and the security updates it took about an hour to install. It stayed on Android 14. No upgrade to Android 15. If you use a third party password manager that is not the Google password manager, you'll need to make changes to the Chrome browser and autofill settings. To do this Turn you'll need to enable two optional Chrome flags. In Google search Chrome browser changes for autofill Android 14 Chrome flag settings. The search list three flag settings in Chrome to enabled, but it turns out only two were in the version of Chrome that ships with the phone . Enable those two flags and restart Chrome. There's a button on the bottom of the flag enable screen that restarts Chrome .Follow the instructions listed in The Google search steps to Enable Third-Party Autofill on Android 14. If you're using Google password manager, you don't need to do this. Because the phone only has four MB of RAM. Some apps run on this phone. Doordash is one of them. That's it. As I said it's a nice little phone for backup or light to medium use.

⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent phone for the price "I bought this Motorola Moto G Play 2024 with Tracfone's one-year plan and I am very satisfied. The battery lasts all day, the screen looks great and the phone works fast for calls, messages, social networks and videos. Activation was simple and the service included for a year is a great advantage. For less than $50, I think it's an excellent purchase. I recommend it for those looking for a cheap and reliable phone.”

The phone itself is fine. The service provider, Tracfone, is a complete joke. My phone worked fine for a month, and the price was great so I bought a second one. Then after a few weeks, the first phone can't connect to the network anymore. I can't even enable wifi calling. I called Tracfone's support line and the automated system tells me my number doesn't exist in their system. It is literally IMPOSSIBLE to speak to a human there. Then a few weeks later, the other phone has the same issue- unable to connect to network (even in the middle of a large U.S. city, where my co-worker's phone (also verizon network) has no problems whatsoever. "Tracfone" is a scam to bleed poor people dry because the company knows there's nothing we can do about it. I returned both phones, this company is a complete joke.
