The editors didn't like
Back panel prone to fingerprints
Design again I'm still not feeling the flat back with the huge camera hump. It's an unnecessary design concession for modular accessories that aren't very useful yet
Processor lacks punch for high end gaming
Large top and bottom bezels
RAW files have issues in the corners that will be fixed by Hasselblad soon
Entire back of the phone is very glossy and is prone to fingerprints
Large
And not very pocketable with a peripheral attached
The Z Play is the thickest and heaviest phone in the Moto Z series and its fingerprint sensor
Annoyingly
Can be mistaken for a home button
Underwhelming rear camera
Fingerprint scanner is wonky
3.5mm headphones requires using the included dongle (can't charge while listening via wired headphones unless you find a Y cable)
Limited performance
Chunky design
Verizon exclusive version loaded with bloatware
Camera software interface could use some work
Poor placement of fingerprint sensor
Power button
Outperformed by other phones in its price range
No headphone jack. This phone is like a photo frame for your fingerprints. The fingerprint reader makes no sense

Attractive slim design; fine overall performance; great screen; unique Moto Mods options
No hotspot button on quick menu

Abstract: We like the Moto Z and it's bigger, bulkier cousin the Moto Z Force . They're speedy, elegant phones with a good approach to modular add-ons—as opposed to the LG G5 , whose “take the whole phone apart” approach to modules doesn't sit well with us.Those ot...

Yes, if you want to dabble in MotoMods, or get a powerful-enough Android phone with two-day battery life. This is a cheap way of achieving both of those goals without sacrificing or spending too much money.CompetitionLG G5The LG G5 is the other modular sm...
Moto Z Play is all about playing longer and doing it all with ease. Its extended battery life and embedded headphone jack give us what we want (and expect) from a smartphone.Yes, it's thicker than the incredibly slim Moto Z and the 1080p display isn't goi...

Really great battery life, stock Android experience, Mods hold heaps of potential
Questionable button and square-feeling design choices
It's big, fast, and lasts a full day without even breaking a sweat, which makes the Moto Z Play one of the best options for people wanting a phone with seemingly never-ending battery life. The Incipio Mod attachment takes battery to the next next level to...
