Nobody tell Motorola things are supposed to be more expensive... Build your credit this new year. Go to www.chime.com/jerryrig. Thanks to Chime for sponsoring the show! We test a lot of thousand dollar smartphone flagships. But today we move to the opposite end of the spectrum and test a budget $149 dollar smartphone. This little android phone has a single camera on the back and appears to be entirely made form plastic. BUT has a 1tb SD Card slot - which is rather incredible. A full size 6.5 inch 90hz refresh rate screen all while only costing 149 bucks?! The 2024 Motorola G Play: amzn.to/49vZscC

Honestly, the only iPhones that are actually worth the cost are the 15 pro and pro max. If you want anything cheaper, you should just buy an Android at this point. The fact that Apple is selling the 15 plus for the price that they are is almost laughable.

@@kingcactus4656tbh i dont know why anyone considers 60hz a dealbreaker and why having high refresh rates on a phone is even required, like what are you doing on it lol, plus people usually dont buy iPhones cuz of the specs, for example, i use an iPhone because all of my family members do and the integration is so nice, being able to facetime, airdrop, all those other things are things we use everyday and they legitimately just make life easier, and i know there are alternatives to those things on android but they just arent the same, and i can always rest assured that since iPhones are so locked down, there is literally nothing that they can do that will cause them massive issues or anything that i will end up having to solve. (Also we arent the kind of dumbasses who upgrade every year all of use use our money phones until we cant anymore, heck my dad still uses an iphone 8 since it still just works😅)

Because its not fashionable as such, so doesn't reach the masses, but as a Samsung user, my S23 ultra will be my last from Samsung, the reason being, each phone as reached the point where even this £140 Motorola will give the average user a phone that delivers the basics. So next year, when my contract is up with my provider, I will consider looking at other brands such as Motorola, One Plus, or Honor. For £450 maybe £500 max, which is roughly what I can sell my s23 ultra for at that point on the used market and get a perfectly useable phone from one of these companies.

Seeing a teardown of budget phones like this really astounds me with how much clever engineering went into such a low price point. Not a single millimeter wasted in this phone, really fascinating stuff. I daresay the average person couldnt tell much difference between a 1499 dollar phone and a 149 dollar one, and I certainly couldnt tell what i was missing with my motorola power 2021 for the 2 years i used it. Please do more budget teardowns!

As someone who used both budget phones and flagships... Yeah you can. In 2-3 years generally, when budget phones start being slow as molasses and/or stop getting updates.

@amermeleitor 4 ай бұрын

Motorola is doing great. It's being able to compete with Xiaomi and others at entry level (up to 250usd). In my country the phone is named Moto G34, and there are slightly pricier ones that are a lot better (Moto G54 and Moto G84). Some of us don't need or don't like or can't afford a flagship and Motorola is giving good alternatives

I got a TCL 30 XL about 8 months ago for $120 and it has a very similar feature set for a lower price. Other than maybe a slow processor, it is an excellent device, doing literally everything I need it to do. An added surprise on that is the battery that lasts around a week between charges on average. It has the same capacity at 5000mAH. It has served me well and shows no signs of giving up anytime soon.
