I got my phone replaced with the exact same model (both used). This time the screen works fine.

Also, I noticed that the caseback is very fragile. With every drop, a chunk of the caseback comes off, or a crack is seen at the very least. The screen held up well so far, but you must get a case for this phone.

    I got this phone recently. First thing I noticed is the ghost touches, seems the touch screen goes faulty on these things quickly. I turn off the screen the moment I noticed the ghost touches. Turning it on right after seems to be fine. As a precautionary measure, you can also keep the brightness down.

    To realistically use this phone, install as less apps as possible and use the browser instead. I do that now with things ranging from weather to Instagram and even accessing my files on the cloud drive.

    I also use Greenify 4.7.3 (latest version is buggy) to prevent most apps from running in the background. For system apps like chrome which greenify cannot control, go to App info>battery and set to restricted.

    To survive with the 32gb storage, I disabled media auto download in Whatsapp. Also, I installed Open Camera to bring down the camera resolution to 2MP.

    Overall, a decent phone if you know how to use. But the ghost touches are off-putting

            This phone is not to be recommended mine just keeps freezing

              Avoid at all costs unless it's under 40$ and you only need a phone for phone calls and simple SMS text messages. We've owned 3 and all 3 are super laggy and completely unusable for most things or to use as a main phone. Please don't buy this as your only phone unless it's temporary.

                If you want to keep your sanity. Don't get this phone. It can't preform even this Simplest of functions. It freezes up and malfunctions all the time. It may be cheap but this phone Moto G Pure is absolutely GARBAGE 🗑️! Plain and simple. I'll be upgrading to a new phone this coming weekend. They are beyond terrible!

                  This phone, Yes it can work, its also pretty smooth when watching youtube, but 1 thing that has me like, come one!!! Is the fact the Samsung doesn't do software updates like apple does, so it looks old.

                        Brenda, 19 Dec 2023I've never had a cell phone & the Motorola G Pure ... moreThe external camera (on the back) is the default.
                        To use the camera on the screen side you have to press a button, then you see your face instead of behind camera.
                        It is not a high end phone, but works well except sometimes difficult to answer incoming calls.

                          User, 11 Apr 2024Worst phone ever Always lag. Worst UI Worst UI? You're exaggerating. As slow as this phone is, its UI is the least of its problems.

                            Anonymous, 05 Jul 2024it always freezes that why I stopped using that garbage I've had this phone for a year and it definitely freezes which is very frustrating. Get a phone call and can't retrieve it or use any other feature. Soft resetting tends to resolve this problem, but I definitely don't recommend this phone.

                                Maybe a bad phone but I got it on clearance at Target for $17 and it makes a wonderful FM radio (I love Motorola for this). The FM app does come preinstalled but it’s hidden, you have to go to the Google Play Store to turn it on. I won’t be using this as a phone, camera, or Wi-Fi device. Just listen to my local radio stations on my Bluetooth headphones while I’m walking the dog, and best of all it looks like with this use I’ll only have to charge like once a week! Love it!!

                                        This phone belongs to garbage. Like if you look at the list of the low-end phones, this phone should hold the last place.
