The Moto X Play is clearly an experiment for Motorola – and I'm not sure if it's succeeded in the areas the company was targeting when they were originally looking at the drawing board.It straddles a strange middle ground between Motorola's successful bud...
It's these small touches that elevate the Moto X Play above the rest of the competition and make it a much better buy than other £200-300 phones, such as the Samsung Galaxy A5, Sony Xperia M4 Aqua, EE Harrier and HTC Desire 820. It's also great value on c...

Abstract: The Moto X Play was a surprise announcement in this year's Motorola line-up, a brand-new handset sandwiched between the top-end Moto X Style and third generation of the popular budget buy Moto G. However, the Moto X Play is more than just a mid-range opti...

Almost half the price of some comparable devices, the Moto X Play sets new standards for the mid-market smartphone space. Yes, there are better looking handsets doing the rounds, but with a stunning screen, largely impressive camera and hugely positive ba...

Battery life, Moto Maker options, price, pretty much bloatware free
Not hugely exciting, camera low light performance weak, no fingerprint scanner
The Moto X Play is a headset that appears to have one primary focus: long-lasting battery life. If you want an endurance champion, then the Moto X Play could well be the handset for you. There are other positives too. The design can be personalised...
The Moto X Play (2015) is a solid performer, with a massive battery and an improved camera, both of which perform adequately in the real world. The Moto X Play just needs to be a little better in low light, then it would have got a Gold Award. "" framebor...
