Moto Z2 Play hits Verizon Wireless

Motorola's Moto Z2 Play was unveiled earlier this month, offering a few noticeable changes when compared to its predecessor. However, being thinner and more powerful also comes with a price - the battery is smaller. Now, this mid-range handset is available on Verizon Wireless, and it should soon hit Motorola.com as well.

The 3 GB RAM/32 GB storage variant currently available for purchase from Verizon has a price tag of $408 USD, but can be acquired for 24 monthly payments of $17 USD each as well. Although Motorola is expected to unleash a 4 GB/64 GB model too, there is no information about its arrival to Verizon Wireless yet.

The new Moto Z2 Play is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 626 processor, also featuring a 5.5-inch full HD display, NFC, USB Type-C, as well as a 3.5 mm headphone jack. The 3,000 mAh battery promises to deliver up to 30 hours of regular use, while the Moto Z Play's 3,500 mAh power pack offered more than 50 hours.
