Trying to shrink this bezel by fitting the connector into a tighter area or bending it increases your r&d costs, and to Motorola, it’s not worth passing these costs onto the consumer in the competitive budget phone market.

I am probably going to get this. I was hoping to buy the G84 but it's too impractical and uneconomical to go for that as a budget phone. It seems to be only available in India, and maybe the UK? I wanted it because it's the only recent device that meets my desired feature set criteria at a relatively affordable price range. MGP 2024 lacks OLED, but it's the closest thing out there to the G84 for a lower price and it's a US-Canada release too. I'm very glad to see Motorola offering this kind of value proposition.

Why not move the front camera to the bezel and make the top & bottom bezel equal in height?

it's alright for the price, though why 64 in 2024? should be minimum 128.

This is a big upgrade in almost every way imaginable. I'm surprised it even has stereo speakers. Considering the G Play typically goes way below $100 in the US after some time and then competes with the Redmi A series basically, this is amazing.

Android isn't the main smartphone platform and a decent majority of Android phones here are low-end bottom of the barrel junk. There's not much of an incentive to make competitive devices.

There are a few exceptions (Nokia G310 and Galaxy A14 5G) but Motorola in particular is really stingy about it. I have no idea why, considering that it probably adds maybe $5 to the cost of the phone.

What a absolute clunker. Outdated CPU. Android 13 even though 14 is out so its getting the one os update scam. 720P res screen in 2024 gross. 4gig ram so only enough to run the O.S. and nothing else. Why call it Play when you cant play anything on it?

And also moto g34 looks much better for same price: sd695 vs sd680 (there is a lot of difference between them), 120hz display vs 90hz, 8gb ram vs 4gb

For an entry level phone it's actually quite cool and refreshing to have just one useful camera.
