I'm thinking about picking one up. This and the OnePlus 4/5 with its rumored 4000 mAh battery are the two I'm keen on right now.

Damn these "mid-rangers" are getting nice

Only thing stopping me is the camera. Yes, it's decent, but I'm looking for a top notch camera in my next phone.

If you want good camera in Motorola phone, read up on moto g5 plus. Cheap phone with best camera in its class.

...Maybe the second gen Moto Z Play will get the same camera.

So you're going flagship next?

I hope for this. As of now I've disabled the default Moto camera app and use A Better Camera app. Helps tremendously.

But does it work with twist wrist to start camera function?

Yup! In my opinion, there is really no need to grab a flagship device anymore in many cases; because with phones like the Z Play, OnePlus 3T, and Honor 8, it's not like you're sacrificing flagship-like specs for a more economical value. The mid-range market has exploded in recent years and since I've picked up my Honor 8 four months ago, I don't feel the need to always buy last year's flagship when I can buy a current mid-range phone that pretty much does everything a flagship does. And my wallet is happy, too.

I bought the Moto Z Play this afternoon but I did take a look at the g plus 5. I liked it but it was the same 5.2 inch screen as my Honor 8. I opted Z Play but I will say I was very tempted.

I actually went back today to possibly exchange my Z Play for the G5 but they were sold out so I took that as sign to keep my beloved Z Play now. I won't exchange it now. Now my next purchase is the JBL speaker mod which is my favorite of all of them. I had it when I had my Z Force and used it the most. Music and movies. I didn't care how thick it was. I also thought talking on speaker phone was phenomenal too with that mod.

It won't.

When you disable the default camera app, the twist action did open my current camera app, A Better Camera app. Sweet.
