I've done a lot of research on the Moto Z2 Play, as I wanted it for a while. Though it has a smaller battery, apparently it does get pretty decent mileage. The gist that I've taken from reviews is, "It's a good phone, but not in a successor sense." According to a carrier site that sells it, you can still get "up to thirty hours" of battery life; which is pretty solid for a phone that did take a hit as far as getting a smaller battery.
If you're a little concerned about getting it, you could always wait for 2018 - Moto's upcoming devices will work with Moto Mods as well, so if you have some, it may be worth the wait. But if your charging port is giving you trouble and you want to upgrade sooner rather than later, what about grabbing something like the G5 Plus to last you until then and then save it as a backup device when you get the next Moto Z Play device that comes out?
