Title: I Can’t Recommend This Phone *CHANGING TO: It Does Everything I Need
Review: I’ve used Motorola for my last four phones. I ordered this Moto G Play (2021) to replace a Moto G4 Play which gave excellent service. The reason for changing was AT&T *updating* their service. After the update I was unable to make or receive voice calls. Data and messages worked fine, no voice calls. AT&T notified my carrier (Airvoicewireless who uses the AT&T system) that new SIM cards would be required for the upgraded service. Airvoicewireless sent me a new SIM but my phone still refused to connect for voice calls. I finally found information that AT&T was blacklisting older phones so I’d also have to buy a new phone. *sigh*The phone arrived promptly and I configured the new phone with the new SIM and was finally back to having a working phone – sota’. At home where I had ‘4 bars’ of signal I now have ONE. In areas I frequent which had low but usable signal strength on my G4 I now get no signal and a notification of [no carrier] if I attempt to make a call or send a text. The phone is (Renewed) so I’m not sure if this is a problem with just this particular handset and that’s why it was returned or with the Moto G Play (2021) sets in general.I haven’t returned the phone yet but intend to. I’m still trying to get information if other Moto G Play (2021) handsets have the same problem. If so, I’ll go with a different model.EDIT: I downloaded an app for this phone to show signal strength. I also put the app on my previous phone. I carried them together for a while and found the reception to be so similar as to be negligible differences. Sometime new was slightly better than old and sometimes it was reversed. It depended on which channel each phone was pinging at the moment and this changes from minute-to-minute. I found my old phone doesn’t recieve with the same number of bars as before. I probably was biased against this phone because of being forced to upgrade. I’m also changing my star rating in light of having used it for a while. For a basic, inexpensive phone it does a great job.

Review: These products are very damaged, one of them came with scratches and the other was useless and was very damaged on the outside, the battery exploded and never worked. I need a refund because it’s not fair. This was a gift and I had to go through a lot of trouble.

Title: Decently fast, excellent battery life, terrible camera
Review: Like many other people, I was forced to get a newer phone (I hesitate to use the word “upgrade”) because AT&T switched from 3G voice to 4G over LTE voice. This left a significant percentage of phones even a couple of years old not working on their voice service.This is my 4th Motorola phone. I had a Moto G(3), a Moto G6 play, a Moto G7 power, and this Moto G 2021.I first want to mention the battery life. I get 2.5-3 days when actively using the phone, and over 5 days with very light use (checking texts and emails). The phone is also decently fast. It’s snappy for web browsing, plays videos great, and is plenty fast for light gaming. (I don’t play 3D games on my phone. If I want to do that I’ll use a computer or console or dedicated handheld.)The screen is also good. It’s got enough resolution for the size of the phone, and the color and contrast is fine.The front camera however, is quite bad. It rarely gets the focus or exposure correct. I’ve tried using it to take pictures of electronics to zoom into small text, and it’s often out of focus. I tried using it to scan a document with the CamScanner app, and it got the exposure so wrong that the page was mostly white. For taking snapshots in bright sunlight it might be OK, but that’s about the easiest thing you can ask a digital camera to do.So my rating would be 3.5 stars. I considered 3 stars, because the camera is bad enough to knock off 2 stars. But the excellent battery life, bang-for-buck performance, and overall design are worthy of 4 stars. And Amazon doesn’t currently allow half stars so I can split the difference.

Review: Great phone out of the box, easy to setup and processor is fast. Needed a good upgrade from my cracked phone and loving the bigger screen. Wish it came with a case, but can’t complain. Good value for my money, screen quality is excellent and a great battery life.

Review: Decent phones for the price, but both of the phones I got are starting to exhibit bad cases of battery bulge. Probably not safe to use now.

Review: Le téléphone à une bonne mémoire et une durée de batterie efficace.Le seul problème ? Vous devrez faire l’achat d’autres fils pour la recharge. Motorola n’accepte plus les fils de recharge plus ancienne.
