Brexit, we clearly have small minds with limited memory as people on the whole who are easily manipulated.... well 52% of us.

I think Moto G users are quite specific. They just want functional phone good value phone with no show of value! and even without discount Moto Gs are good value for money and discount does not excite Moto G users anymore. That is my very crude guess :smiley:

Argos is extremely inaccurate in their description...

Guess its cos most of them have bought this phone previously from motorola for £79 & £89 (unlocked)

Terrific phone, great price

For those who aren't aware, this is the smaller, lower spec G4:

Snapdragon 410, 16GB Storage, 1GB RAM, 5" 720p, 8MP Camera

got this phone, but slow for web browsing and 4 hrs to recharge :disappointed:. So got the Lenovo zuk z2

mum already has voda payg but needs a new phone. could she apply the top up to her existing sim?

Thanks

Any reason why this is not getting hotter. Seems a good price compared to elsewhere (£115 Amazon) and unlock code seems to be less than 2 quid.

OK, time machine voting again then :laughing:

seems to be

seems to be some confusion over the amount of RAM in this thing. some are saying 1GB and others 2GB. Can anyone confirm what this voda offering has in it? Moto site suggests 2gb as do several reviews that are definitely for the play and not just the G4.

Voda chat say 2gb if they can be believed

I bought one of these from motorolla for the wife and it has 1GB.

It's 1GB for the UK, 2GB for the rest of the world.

Read the Motorola UK site, not the US site. Also, all reviews of the G4 Play are from US or Indian sources. Motorola did not provide review units to UK tech sites as they were expecting criticism of the lower RAM amount.

Bizzare how they think the UK only needs 1GB, I would love to know the reasoning behind it.

any way of avoiding the £10 top up?

I was wondering about that, as for example Argos website states that their units are 2GB of RAM...

Argos is extremely inaccurate in their description...

i've had this phone for the last 4 days and really like it. any questions ill try to answer

Brexit, we clearly have small minds with limited memory as people on the whole who are easily manipulated.... well 52% of us.

do you need ram to make calls ???
isn't that wot phones are for
i have this phone and for £79.01 very good value
never seen £100s in a mobile phone

so true :neutral_face:

... a small price for "getting our sovereignty back" (whatever that even means...) :confused:

Not sure why this is getting voted hot as even budget phones should come with 1.5gb or 2gb ram these days (in all country's). Running the later versions of Android with 1gb is not going to be a pleasant experience.

It's a shame really, as the international version would make a decent entry level.

I do get the 1gb hate but I think as a PHONE 1gb is fine.

I would happily recommend a phone like this over a dumb phone for people who would just call and text and maybe an email app or web browsing or whatsapp. the android UI is very easy to use and the screen real estate means a much more pleasant experience.

as a SMART phone it does fall short with 1gb. I'd imagine

my mum happily has an Alcatel running android 5.1 with a simplified launcher for calls and texts which only has 1gb. she's much more confident with it than she ever was with her older style phones. perhaps she's missing out on the full potential of the phone but you too gives her what she needs.

no. you can turn lock off or you can use smart lock. meaning when at home, for example, it won't lock or when it's still on your body it won't lock (if you wanted)

no. you don't need to use a password. if you did you could use smart lock

2gb ram or 1gb..gsm.arena specs says 2gb ram

Any ideas where to get it unlocked from?

On sale in argos 99quid and just checked it has 2gb Ram the version from vodaphone had the 1gb ram

moto e from Tesco @ £69 a better deal?

my battery last suppringsly for a long time. couple of days. but an unfair test! all new phones will do well surely.
I've had mine for a couple of months and still going strong. takes a while to recharge if I had to be critical

I got one of these on delivered Tuesday - it keeps going in and out of stock so if you want one you just need to keep checking back.

Then I saw the Moto G5 for £139.99 on O2, so decided to send this back for a refund. and get that instead.
Jeez, vodafone's call centre is hard to deal with! Took 3 phone calls, over an hour, kept being put on hold and transferred round. It was about the twelfth person I spoke to, a very nice Indian lady, who sorted it out for me......

Nice ! Ordered thanks!
