Conclusion
The Moto Z Play is an interesting new device from Lenovo. With the company finally getting access to the superior Super AMOLED displays from Samsung, coupled with Moto Display and other Moto features, you are looking at an extremely well made phone. While the camera hump on the back may be a little disconcerting to some users, the phone looks good on the whole. With just the right specs for a mid-range phone, Lenovo could have fixed a better and lower price – $499 seems a little too high for a phone with these specs. We are essentially looking at a sub Rs. 35k price in India, if the phone makes it to the country. However, on first impression, the Moto Z Play looks like a good device.
