Would you say that the Moto Z3 Play is "fast" in day-to-day use? A higher rating indicates that you think the Moto Z3 Play exhibits fantastic performance. Like, is it as fast as your tears when you watch The Titanic?

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

I didn't cry in the Titanic, but this phone keeps up. If 10 was the highest, I'd put it at a 7. Specs work well with the OS but suffer a bit in extreme multi tasking. Better than the other Moto phone's I've had though

Fast enough, it doesn't frustrate me or piss me off like some other mid-range phone I've owned have. It holds up fine. My wife has the Galaxy S9+ and I can totally tell the difference between build quality and speed but I'm happy with my Z3.

I agree with you, comparing it to a high end Samsung or most flagship phones is not really fair. But in it's range it's pretty damned good. No problems with general use. I picked one up a few months back unlocked US version with the battery mod included. on sale, plus some Best Buy money and a sale of a decent older phone for cheap. I needed something while my 3xl was out for repair. To be honest it performed far better than I expected. Use it on my Fi account. I know with the battery mod it can be bulky, but on the positive side it feels good in the hand. Just put a screen protector on it because I couldn't find a case which fit both, and honestly haven't tried to find a case since.

Coming from a Galaxy S6 Edge and this phone is worlds better. I can't speed to battery life on it just yet, but I am finding that the device can take everything I can throw at it so far and laugh. :) It does hiccup from time to time, but I honestly got this phone REFURB in Grade 'A' condition (looked brand new to me) for $175 after tax and I feel like I lucked out. I haven't had it close any apps on me just yet, and the UI is much snappier than my S6. I just updated everything to 9.0 and loving it more and more.

I'll report back in a few weeks but I'd buy this phone again in a heart beat. (it is a little big for me, but for $175 . . . I'll deal with it)
