80% Motorola Moto G7 Play review: Affordable Android
Source: Pocket Lint Archive.org version
The Moto G7 Play sits at the bottom of the pile in Motorola's G-series range and is therefore everything you'd expect a phone this cheap to be: a no-frills phone that gets the basics done.

The Moto G7 Play is a decent Android phone for the price, but Motorola offers stronger options for just a bit more money.

The Moto G7 Play isn’t a flagship killer, but at £150, it wouldn’t be. Instead, the G7 Play is a solid smartphone that despite not having high-end internals can provide a smooth, lag-free mobile experience – even when playing the likes of PUBG Mobile, and that’s impressive. The build quality is great despite the use of plastic, with fine detailing across the handset giving the G7 Play a more premium look and the lightweight nature of the phone is certainly a plus.

The Moto G7 Play has modest specs and low price and quite expectedly it has some issues, mostly concerning app loading times. But the Play was well-designed, the chipset is a good choice, and the camera is skillful enough for the class.

The Moto G7 Play offers amazing value for money and could be a great crash phone or choice for parents with accident-prone kids in need of a smartphone. It features a robust design, reasonable battery life and near untouched version of Android 9. The only downside is that for a mere £40 more you can pick up the Moto G7 Power, which has a nicer design, is more powerful and features a giant battery that'll easily smash through two days use.

Pocketable, affordable, zippy in day-to-day use - the Moto G7 Play may be a budget phone - and it isn’t built for gaming, despite its name - but it bears all the hallmarks of a four-star device. It delivers great battery life, gives you access to tons of apps, and it offers value for money that can argue away most of its shortcomings.

Overall, Moto is not doing anything extraordinary, but it does not need to: the new Moto phones are an evolution in terms of design with thinner bezels and more stylish looks, they are faster with the Snapdragon 6xx series of chips, and they work reliably, with a clean and likeable interface.

It punches above its weight in terms of performance, has a competent camera and looks a lot more expensive than it actually is, even if the plastic build gives the game away once you get it into your hand.

The G7 Play is a value buy with enough specs and space to get anyone off the ground with basic smartphone functionality and it's one of the cheapest devices running Android 9 Pie.

The Motorola Moto G7 Play certainly looks cheaper than the rest of the Moto G7 family, but it is sub £150, putting it firmly in budget smartphone territory.

Qualcomm Adreno 506: Integrated graphics card in the Snapdragon 625 SoC and based on the new 500-series architecture with support for Vulkan, OpenGL ES 3.1 + AE (3.2) and UBWC.

Only some 3D games with very low demands are playable with these cards.

» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.

SD 632: Mid-range octa-core SoC with eight Kryo 260 cpu cores at up to 1.8 GHz, an Adreno 509 GPU, a LPDDR4-2666 memory controller and a X12 LTE (Cat 13/12, 300 / 150 MBit) modem. Manufactured in the modern 14nm process.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.

5.70":

It is a very small display format for smartphones. You should by no means be mis-sighted and you will generally see very little on the screen and only have a small resolution available. In return, the device should be very small and handy.

Motorola: Founded in 1928, the US-based company mainly focuses on communication technology such as smartphones. The original company Motorola Inc was split up in 2011. Motorola Mobility got the smartphone division and was taken over by Google in 2012 and Lenovo in 2014.

The company is known for its cell phones and other electronic devices such as smartwatches, tablets and accessories. Motorola was one of the first companies to produce cell phones, and in recent years has also innovated in the areas of 5G technology and modular smartphones (Moto Mods). Motorola is also active in public safety and professional communications, providing solutions for government agencies, businesses and other organizations. The company has operations in North America, Europe, Asia and Latin America and employs more than 10,000 people worldwide. 

72.33%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
