But then consider that Moto X Play has a whopping 3630mAh battery compared to phones like the iPhone 6 (1810mAh), iPhone 6s (1715mAh), iPhone SE (1624mAh). My daughter struggles to get through a day with her iPhone 6. I don't mind a FEW extra millimetres thickness if it means that I get a battery that will last me TWO days at least.

Nice, I got one with a couple of codes and Quidco from Motorola recently for £199 ish, this is a good alternative.

Good phone for the money, just a little chunky for me, but has marshmallow etc

is the 32gb version US only?

Good price although new Moto's are due soon so it will likely fall further before long.

​Just the Motorola brand. Going to be Lenovo Moto instead.

Ahh

comes with a free Lebara SIM, with 10.99 in it.

Looks to be an excellent phone! I am however put off by its thickness of 10.9 mm. Motorola never disappoints people who love chunky phones :smile:

Missus has this and really likes it. V good battery.

I ordered the 32Gb version earlier this week. Using the codes SPRING16 and UKWELCOME10 it came to £249. I ordered it on Wednesday, it was shipped yesterday (Friday), and is due for delivery by the 28th April. The advantage with ordering from the Motorola site is that you can have it made with the colour co-ordination you choose.

Hmm this or the nexus 5x from ebuyer for £209.99? Any advice?

Very well performing phone, bought this for £200 back in September (through Bespokes Offers and TCB) and it is a fantastic performer even to this day. I have over 100 apps on it and it has not slowed down one bit. Would recommend putting an SD card in it though. Overall, no complaints! Dropped it many times, heavy media usage and battery still lasts over a day.

Thanks. Might go for nexus5x

Good find. Heat

On my moto x play the marshmallow upgrade made animations stick but the next update fixed that. It is definitely chunky with a case on but feels nice in the hand.

​Note that the 5x does not have a memory slot.

The Mrs has the moto with 128gb card that is formatted as internal memory, per marshmallow.

Works very well.

I've got a black one of these for sale if anyone is interested?

Are you using the same phone as me? I've had countless problems with mine being slow. I empty the cache daily and even got an SD card to free up internal space. Still has periods of sluggishness. This is the first android phone I've had that, from new, hiccups regularly.

I would swap to a Nexus again but compared to this, it doesn't come close for practicality. It's just a shame something is dodgy with mine.

Snap! Had been looking around for the lowest way to buy one as a gift, customized, but not pay £300! ;-)

>>>>>
This! Had the 5x last year and also have the moto x play.. the moto x play hands down and as you
can get the 32gb for 16gb cost while moto have the spring sale on, it will last until the next
round of phones come out in 2017, which will make all the current 2016 ones stupid cheap!

Have had 9 days on all the time, no wifi, no farcebook or numpty apps, with the Moto X Play
the 5x barely lasted a day..

The rear moto maker case is what gives the phone that thicker look, not the battery and tbh
once you hold and use the moto x play in one hand, compared to the 5x it makes no difference
to the thickness of the handset.. it stays in one hand, the 5x sort of slips/slides about a bit ;-)

Moto X play camera is great, the microsd access fast, the screen is sublime and best of all
if you do not care about the warranty [that much!] you can install the Dual Sim firmware on
it, which with Marshmallow 6.0.1 is silky smooth and very useful for business/pleasure use! :smile:

>>>>>
Have you tried a complete factory reset on it yet Taz and / or installed the March MM 6.0.1 rom on it from
scratch?

I have had some slowness issues with my phone at times but not frequently. There is a problem with mine though since I updated to Marshmallow where my home button or any media controls (media controls on headphones) refuse to work.

I would say they never disappoint people who value battery life over a few millimetres of slimness.

Try cleaning out the Cache Partition, you might have some old files left there from the last Firmware. The instructions are on the link below, just follow the Lollipop steps. I clean my Cache partition out about once a month to keep it clean. You won't hurt any of your apps or settings by doing it.
Cache partition - Motorola site

Didn't work :disappointed: However, the guest account doesnt have that issue of the home button so I think it is my user account.

codes still working direct from Motorola giving same price but choice of personalising your phone to order.

why no drop in price? It was 199 at black friday already..

Are these locked to tesco mobile or can I add my three sim in and be fine?

which code?

The spec says they are sim free so it works with any network as long as you have a nano sim

SPRING16 and UKWELCOME10

Only thing is if you buy via Motorola site the 16gb version says "Delayed shipping. Estimated delivery 5 May 2016"

thank you :smiley:

I was thinking of getting this deal....but The Moto X Play doesn't have a gyroscope, which means it can't take Photospheres using the camera.

Maybe not a deal breaker for everyone, but a feature i like to use.

I have same issues with nexus 5x I believe my unit is faulty, I experience lags quite often, videos taken with camera stutter quite a bit.

Oh, hi

Amazing phone, bought it a few months ago and very happy with it. Runs everything I throw at it without a problem. Great screen and really long battery life. If you're looking for a nice simple case for it, try this one. It fits perfect and looks great.

dropped you a pm

​If you download the 6.0.1 update, it should hopefully resolve you issues. I was happy with my phone till the initial Marshmallow update, then the phone became incredibly slowly, took over 5 minutes to startup and took over 2 hours to factory reset which did nothing to fix the issues. A Google search revealed many reports of performance issues which were probably software related as the hardware is fairly capable, so I decided to wait instead of ditching it.. Thankfully, since the 6.0.1 update, the phone is fast, fluid, responsive and boots in seconds.

Was just about to order this but OOS now.

It's also available directly from Motorola for £209 with codes (original price £249).

Discount codes... SPRING16 AND UKWELCOME10.
