Our verdict

The 2026 Play is a more practical connectivity choice than the 2024 model thanks to 5G, while keeping expandable storage. Its HD+ screen and limited physical memory favor basic use; compare the regular moto g (2026) before accepting the storage and charging compromises.

What reviewers say

"It’s simply not equipped to handle more demanding operations, such as editing video or playing graphically intensive games."
— Tom's Guide

Pros

  • +5G support is a meaningful connectivity upgrade over the 2024 Play.
  • +A 120Hz display and stereo speakers suit everyday media use.
  • +The dedicated microSD slot adds storage flexibility.

Cons

  • −The large screen remains HD+ rather than Full HD.
  • −Only 64GB of internal storage and 4GB of physical RAM; RAM Boost is not additional physical memory.
