Moto Z3 Play hands-on: A tougher sell this time around

[@carllewis3612]

No headphone jack..sucks

[@henriquemagalhaes3062]

If you want top notch specs, with notch design feel free to look oneplus 6, Huawei etc... If you want something different and unique the z3 is your phone. Looks amazing and for the first time in recent years Motorola just nailed the design

[@kotliarnicolas4090]

Lenovorola, you´ve spoiled the whole thing

[@PavanKumar-ft5hi]

Can we make visible the one screen navigation buttons?

[@we0302me]

好期待台 彎和時賣？ 賣多少？ 系統規格

[@utkarshjha6703]

When it will release in India ?? 🙏🙏

[@hotwheelcollector16]

Is the Bluetooth good

[@eltonlucien4280]

Z2 force or z3 Play?

[@kevinroe6844]

There;s no built in wireless? Needs a mod? Do you mean to act as a hotspot?

[@Ozzy_08x]

Android 8.1 Moto phone? Is the USB still broken?

[@shreyasshetty992]

Google lens is included in moto x4 as well

[@dragon2knight]

Nice overview, John. Despite the too high price, it looks good especially if you have a high investment in Moto Mods.

[@ariefkadazan]

I'm afraid motorola will screw like htc or like their parent company : Lenovo.. They seem have hard time to fulfill their promise to give update regularly. Their price seems drop fast, for example, here in Indonesia moto Z price is $273 and moto Z play is $276. Even the play version has more stable price. They should not remove the headphone jack on midrange phones with high price tag like z play series.

[@peterford9369]

Hey John,, Oh i wish Moto with their really nice screen phones would bring back the front facing stereo speakers. It's got plenty of bezel for them. For that price why do I have to spend and carry around a mod if i want the watch a movie or video. So disappointed that they would put so much into a beautiful screen and crappy mono speaker. Making you have to spend another 100 bucks and always have a snap on mod. Thanks John.

[@eerie4169]

When is droid turbo 3 is comn.?

[@faiqsaeed3423]

Talha Imtiaz never Motorola is focusing on G,EandZ series

[@amitpadaliya6916]

Droid series has been cancelled

[@facilityfileshare6169]

Sayangnya ga masuk Indonesia Padahal baguss pengen beli bisa dimana?

[@prabhatmunda3078]

Can i get the wallpaper link

[@I_Am_Mr_Bond]

wallpaper link plz

[@peterdebel7379]

Please Make Them smaller in '19

[@paranormal_6lacktivity5.0]

The z3 force is going to be coming hopefully.

[@tonebonebgky2]

Competitive nAtuRe I'm waiting, my $350 z2 force has been fantastic.

[@jayjohnx]

With that 500$ pricetag, I wished it also had front firing dual stereo speakers, but sadly no...

[@johnsharhynes]

Last year, all KZbin reviewers talked about how the z2 play doesn't stack up to the one plus 5/5t.....it outsold the one plus phones by a landslide. It's tiring to hear a narrative constantly painted that's so far from reality. If One Plus is the standard, keep the saaaaame energy with all midrange phones demanding they give you the FLAGSHIP-TOP-OF-THE-LINE processor instead of a "midrange" processor. This is crazy.

[@shanez1215]

J Rhymes 500 is pretty high for mid range. With how good processors have been and the efficiency of the 600 series, it's a little overblown. Needs a 660 for the price.

[@l031786]

Totally agree eith you. Motorola give more premium built and cool features, which one plus 6 clone of iphone doesnt provide you. Reviewers are idiots, they just cimpare specs and not the quality. For me Motorola still makes the best android smartphone in the market. In the sea of chinese apple clones, Motorola stand high with its uniqueness and quality

[@noobnoob663]

l031786 uniqueness? Who even cares about moto mods ? Lol

[@johnsharhynes]

Noob Noob your comment is funny as I read it from my z3 play attached to the turbo power mod around people who's upset their phone battery is about to die.

[@noobnoob663]

J Rhymes lol then instead of buying these mods invest the total sum in buying something like the pixel

[@nickkalu4920]

Motorola are fools for removing the headphone jack. this phone will definitely not sell for that reason especially with that high price tag

[@Turbo35]

The first phone with Google lens support? 🤔 I've had Google lens on my OnePlus 5T for like 2 weeks at least.

[@joshuamize4658]

Looks like they ditched the infinity display

[@bf1057]

Still trying to figure out what makes this phone worth $500.... $400 would be a much easier sell. This won’t move.

[@jamestownsend6657]

Bryan Ford..... just wait until the holidays, the price will come down.

[@KartikKumar-zw8up]

moto mods compatability makes it expensive

[@tonebonebgky2]

kartik kumar not if you're already invested.

[@keyboard-commentator]

no headphones jack? no thanks

[@ivodiaduch4819]

Looks a little laggy, for that price, is convenient buy the One Plus 6.

[@tigergeo]

Ivo Max laggy? My Z2 Play is smoother than a Galaxy S8 Plus. The Z3 with a superior processor should have no problem keeping up.

[@anthonylawson518]

I have the z2 play...no lag...way better than the Samsung flagship it replaced...

[@sodica81]

George Boricean lagsumg is pure shit

[@biswajitmohanty6690]

Is there 3.5mm headphones jack or not?

[@kailashv9]

Moto is the only brand without notch....

[@sp7778]

Wallpaper please

[@asorio]

this phone has one wide angle lens front camera... The bokeh effect is done through software.

[@silvergrahampalme7340]

No headphone jack less memory than the moto G6 plus (considering its a more expensive phone) at least they could use a snapdragon 660 for this price point, Bye bye moto

[@mobilegamer908]

What have you done Motorola what have you done😯😯😯

[@skeetgielen1308]

Still got my Moto z2 force

[@Old_School69]

How did you not address the fact that you can't even use 1 plus if you are on Verizon or Sprint in the US? This is absurd. Even the Essential phone works with Verizon. It is just stupid that 1plus tries to be the hip, cool new phone, yet it won't work on the largest And the third largest carriers in America. They will never be the technology leader if they won't work on the phones with the best network

[@krunalshah1632]

Lenevo has already destroyed moto with the g series...now its time for z series.!!

[@joyjeetpaul2218]

krunal Shah And they lied about their Z5 as well.

[@commentguy7]

krunal Shah haha true that

[@krunalshah1632]

Hose2wAcKiEr but if you see clearly....all in all lenevo has degraded the brand name of 'moto'. Before lenevo moto used to give regular software updates and fast updates. Now hardly any. They have nothing to boast for. And brands like xiaomi oppo are getting ahead.

[@joyjeetpaul2218]

krunal Shah U just nailed it.... That's the reality. Hope u heard about Lenovo P2 ! Just after the launch I tried to buy that, but then my friends n colleagues told me not to buy #Lenovo phones coz of the issues u just explained. Even I had gone through many reviews done by these channels about Lenovo n their phones..they uttered the same words about OS n Security Updates... Thank god I had followed the trail.

[@krunalshah1632]

Joyjeet Paul lenevo p2 was one of the best phones of tht time, no doubt. My father has it, great value for money phone. But yes, it hasnt received any considerable updates since he bought it. And that sucks..!!

[@tomz6594]

As is this phone should be about 25% cheaper. At this price point there should be a standout feature like good front facing speakers.

[@bequanma]

If it has Snapdragon 835 for $500 then fine, but snapdragon 636 at this price point is just ridiculous. Or it should include all moto mods to make that price reasonable.

[@WAncouvOR]

Sweet Karamel well I would actually prefer it. Because since I don't do alot of mobile gaming, I'm old school. Because apparently playing games on PC's and consoles are just to old. But since I don't do alot of mobile gaming, it would actually be very efficient. Just look at the 1st Gen. Monster battery life.

[@pritam532]

im waiting for z3 force .

[@andrewsolis2988]

I think I will keep my Moto Z2 Force simply due to the aluminum body! I HATE the "premium" glass... let's face it, it is cheap, which is why everyone is switching to it. My Samsung S7 rear glass cracked and I will not buy another glass phone

[@TheRussianLondoner]

I've got Moto X4 for 260$ (new, unlocked, in February 2018) and in comparison it doesn't justify DOUBLE the price, but looks cool though, but it can't compete with OnePlus 6 and Samsung S8 for the same kinda money in the middle of 2018. Z3 Play should have been 300-400$ but with at least 64GB built in memory...

[@frooty4929]

$500 will be the doom of z3 play. those who r thinking to buy just don't, the price will go down for sure by a huge margin in a few months.

[@tonebonebgky2]

DEADSHOT I'm hoping so invested in mods hoping to get another z force in the $300 range (love my z2 force).

[@nikos-giorgos]

DEADSHOT Same thing with the z2play. Was 450€.I just waited and got it for 219€ with the soundboost 2 speaker!

[@mirandaallaboutgranny901]

Waiting untill march so the price will be down

[@THANOS_-]

Motorola Is Back

[@TheJ1s]

already has dust around the camera, the Moto phones with its mods don't make me want to pick one up, I don't like to spend nearly hundred dollars or more for the phone to do some extra stuff. My next phone will most likely be a Samsung for its built in features.

[@wynonnawynonna]

No head phone jack.... WTF

[@fisharefriends598]

I’ve the moto z... After having moto g moto g2 and moto x style(pure)... I think moto have lost there edge now. The peak was the moto x style (pure), even though it was older then the z ...it was actually more powerful and had better screen and camera... It needs to get back to the moto x /pure to be a contender

[@stanleymckinney9613]

I just bought this phone today from Verizon. I have 64GB of storage.

[@captainanxious5822]

Looks really nice but that price is just too high for me

[@Djoki1]

For those 500$ just get the OnePlus 6

[@ricardorodriguesrr18]

Boi Degenerate you OnePlus phones ? do they slow down over time ?

[@StayConsistant]

Unless you have Verizon.

[@shanaenaebae6934]

Exactly💁🏻‍♂️

[@hotwheelcollector16]

Does it work with Verizon

[@jagadishbhatta9562]

Rick Rodz No,why would one plus slow down.

[@frooty4929]

i like the fps position though

[@js-gc2hk]

Hold UP GUYS do you see that Moto gamepad mod why does it look different??? It never had a shine coat like that!!?? I own 1 and it doesn't look that clean. They gave this reviewer better stuffed then what they give us for the price....

[@lovemeorlovememore.6983]

2:39 that dust thou..

[@mickeygarcia2331_]

They should've added stereo speakers

[@zenpa-cto1682]

6inch vs 3000mah = ridiculous

[@PierreWilliams35]

Love dem mods man!!! The Play always has a lesser chip. This is nothing new. The Z Force model is the higher end device.

[@luifernandi]

I will just wait for the price to go down :)

[@MildorZalost0]

For 500 bucks I can get now a galaxy S8... And I bet I could get it even for 400 during Black Friday...

[@cemalklnc8806]

the most different phone in the world

[@cemalklnc8806]

Different is better

[@satejnair9373]

Unless they give free mods it's a no go...

[@elijahb221]

Satej Nair u get a free battery mod when u purchase the phone :)

[@IwenPulgar]

elijahb221 that was the joke

[@needimanh]

elijahb221 only in the US

[@itsyaboia-dub1120]

Will likely be picking up the force edition of this phone if the Asus rog phone is way over priced.

[@tonebonebgky2]

V8Flexin the z2 force is amazing and I only paid $350 wow amazing little device.

[@itsyaboia-dub1120]

TONY B the TECH TIGER Yeah I bought my wife the z2 force which is why I'm interested in the z3 force for myself.

[@Tech1Tv]

Moto G6 Plus is better for $350. I'm just saying

[@MiguelRodriguez-fm1il]

This makes me sad. If modular phones came out six years ago motorola would probably be the phone king of the market

[@BakeBMDeezy]

I want to get this phone, but I don't care for glass back phones.

[@rajnishshah9633]

$500 WTF...... 636

[@vaibhavkothari9086]

I don't know how rich you people are , telling a $500 phone a mid-ranger !!!

[@excelerater]

needs more power,bigger batterys and QI

[@Oriolus1]

3:20

[@nas-zu8xl]

Moto phones are so under rated

[@ryanthomaslawrie5447]

Beautiful

[@thepbrsafari]

Real quick though, the LG G7 has Google Lens support if you long press the Assistant button.

[@cococamper]

Meanwhile i just bought used Z2 Play 4/64GB Dual Sim variant for 200 USD

[@iyasamal]

Well Lenovo created best original design just like samsung, for not using notch as same as Iphone dna

[@kva11n50]

No notch..... Excellent

[@elrudo2games]

That price will be not work this is $300 dollars phone not $500 motorola stop smoking lol

[@DoodleDoo]

should be $350 imo

[@ananthkrishna4262]

Snapdragon 636 for a 500 dollar phone???nahh

[@jeber21]

Your video is good, your headline is ridiculous. should read "Solid upgrade for Moto mod lovers." Yet you insist on bashing Moto.

[@hotwheelcollector16]

Garbage it won't work with Verizon

[@edub90]

Ray Liotta is disturbing to look at

[@grogu81]

I would buy it at $200

[@mrbrian19821]

Fingerprint senser taken from sony

[@LOUISVILLECARDINALS]

That phone is not worth 500. My galaxy s8 is killing this

[@tonebonebgky2]

shine Galaxy s8 is killing it on price too.

[@docj5750]

No need to buy mods..from 500 it will become almost 650..much better oneplus 6..i dont know why moto still doing mods..its not useful nor it gives much advantagevto other phone...

[@casperswift]

Processor choice is disappointing..

[@ap3432]

Verizon ditched this phone

[@docj5750]

Nexus 6 is the best i have..moto mods sucks..why they can not make the straight phones wuth much better os..better specs..at 500 i will go to one plus..

[@declendavis7273]

Cute phone not worth 500 dollars though

[@gulfcitynd]

500 bucks and no headphone jack yeah no thanks ill stick with my v20

[@ankitsen5971]

highly overpriced

[@mirandaallaboutgranny901]

Yeah but if you have mods you would basically be throwing them away to get a new phone

[@nxjais318]

Its time for motorola to get to sleep !!thnx to lenovo

[@lafete6863]

I rate Motorola

[@ritviks.8587]

No headphone jack. No buy.

[@MrCrazyTricker]

Lmao so much overprised lenovo wants to kill motorola i guess it's max 300$ budget phone with midrange chipset whitch is not even the top midrange solution like we have seen in mi 8se only motorola fans will buy this phone. i guess especially whrn moto camera can't really compete with opponents and with this prise point? Nah ppl rather buy xiaomi mi 8 op3 or something else..

[@firmanmanila9309]

Nice

[@maximilianogabriel9982]

Motorola is original ...!...

[@Tazrian11]

Overpriced

[@paddynhat1311]

Everyday Motorola is closer to bankrupt

[@pramodk1355]

Give way

[@sliverbullet9067]

nope enough with Motorola... heating issue display, and not a value of money
