The Moto G8 Play is with 6.2-inch screen, three rear cameras, a fingerprint reader on the back and a processor that would be 30 percent more powerful than the Moto G7 Play had.
The Motorola Moto G8 Play arrives as the cheapest cell phone of the new G8 generation in which the Moto G8 Plus is also located.

Motorola claims that the Moto G8 Play has a battery that would allow it to end up to 2 days in only single charge.
This battery life would achieve not only by mid-range specs that allow it to be less demanding on the battery, but also because the Moto G8 Plus includes a 4,000mAh battery, almost the as size gets in high-end cell phones. like the Galaxy Note 10 Plus (4,300mAh) , the Galaxy S10 Plus (4,100mAh) and the Huawei P30 Pro (4,200mAh).
However, the Moto G8 Plus would surely can’t reach the level of the Moto G7 Power which has a 5,000mAh battery, more basic specifications and has been the cell phone with the best and vast battery life in our tests.
Something small defult is that the Moto G8 Plus comes with Android 9 instead of Android 10, the new version of Google’s operating system that debuted on the OnePlus 7T , as well as on the Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL
