Continuing the Modular cellphone that had stolen the attention of last year, Motorola launched its second generation titled Motorola Moto Z2 Play. Like its predecessor device, the Moto Z2 Play comes at a slower price than the Moto Z series which is included in the flagship smartphone class. Some improvements and improvements are seen on various sides. Interestingly even though it carries a slimmer design, the device that is powered by a 3,000mAh battery remains compatible with MotoMods which is intended for its predecessor devices.
With the promise of compatibility for the next three generations, users certainly have enough time to save while waiting for prices to go down to complete their smartphone with the targeted MotoMods. Carrying the Android Nougat operating system, the Motorola Moto Z2 Play is certainly the choice of modular smartphones on the market that makes the most sense. For those of you who are currently planning to buy a new cellphone, first make sure this phone meets your criteria and needs by following the full review in the following article.
In order to guarantee the compatibility of the device with MotoMods released in 2016, Motorola did not make radical changes from the design side carried. Small changes that appear only occur in the dimensions of the device that looks thinner and lighter. Its thickness is trimmed from 7mm to 6mm. As for the weight also dropped from 165 grams to 145 grams.
Having a physical button that functions as a fingerprint scanner, the Moto Z2 Play uses a virtual navigation button that fills the bottom of the touch screen it carries. Utilizing this virtual button certainly leaves an empty space on the left and right of the fingerprint sensor that is embedded.
Still in the same section, users will find a flash LED right in the upper left corner of the device. While for the top right corner there is a front camera sensor. The middle part is the speaker followed by the Moto logo right at the bottom.
Stepping to the right, you will find the volume control button above which is then followed by the power button with a rough contour below it. The USB Type-C port and 3.5mm jack audio are neatly lined up at the bottom of the Motorola Moto Z2 Play. The card slot looks perched at the top which you can fill with two nano SIM cards and a microSD card.
Motorola Moto Z2 Play is loaded with the Nougat Android operating system that uses an interface similar to Android stock. As with Pixel and Pixel XL, you can hold the icon to see additional options. For example, if you hold the Gmail icon, then you will be treated to the option to write a new email or see the incoming email on one of the Gmail accounts installed on the device.
The main page of the Moto Z2 Play also does not experience changes with the five lines of icons at the bottom which consist of telephone, sms, Moto, Google Chrome and camera. While for application drawers are arranged in a vertical grid format. Users can also search for applications by using the search box at the top.

The small changes that exist in Motorola Moto Z2 Play may only be found in embedded default applications such as Moto Actions, Moto Display and Moto Voice. As mentioned in the above screen discussion, Moto Actions allows users to activate functions with simple hand gestures. As for Moto Display, users can choose Night Display that will emit a more yellow screen color so that users can sleep fast or Moto Display which at a glance is similar to the always on display technology created by Samsung, LG and Google.
As for Moto Voice, you can ask the device to run the application simply by saying the show me followed by the name of the application. For example, if you want to know weather information then just say show me the weather. Unfortunately when PULSA tries to activate the voice recognition function of this Moto Voice, the Moto Z2 Play always fails even though it has been done in a noisy room.
Driven with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 626 octa core processor that speeds up at 2.2GHz, the Motorola Moto Z2 Play is accompanied by 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage space. If it is lacking, users can add a microSD card to the slot prepared separately from the two nano SIM card slots they have. For information, this type of chipset can also be found on smartphones such as Xiaomi Mi Max 2, Galaxy C5 Pro, Galaxy C7 Pro and Moto G5s Plus.
Motorola has also equipped the Moto Z2 Play smartphone with a variety of sensors such as gyroscope for more satisfying games, magnets for compasses to various other sensors that ensure the Moto gesture feature can run smoothly without problems. Fingerprint scanner sensor combined with the Smart Lock On-body Detection feature is also ready to provide convenience to access the device while still providing the security and privacy needed.
Although the capacity of Moto Z2 Play generation battery has been trimmed, users can still get enough endurance for up to a day for normal usage levels. While with TurboCharging technology, Motorola Moto Z2 Play is ready to provide durability of up to 7 hours in just 15 minutes of charging. You can also buy MotoMods TurboPower Pack which has a power capacity of 3,490mAh with the ability to charge to the device up to 50% in just 20 minutes.
In order to measure its performance, Motto 77 uses a variety of benchmark applications. Score of 68 thousands from Antutu certainly makes this device have a very good performance. Unfortunately when Motto 77 tries to run the Geekbench application on the Moto Z2 Play, the application is always closed suddenly aka force close when nearing the end of the test. But the cause may not be directly related to the performance of this device, because on some other phones with Android Nougat Motto 77 also encountered similar problems.
To ensure this, Motto 77 then tried to play the Asphalt 8 game on the device for approximately one hour and did not encounter any obstacles. Similarly, the efficiency of the battery is also fairly good. Motorola Moto Z2 Play also does not release excessive heat when used to play games for a long time.
Regarding the connection, you can choose to use a 4G network that is prepared on both of its nano SIM card slots which can be used interchangeably. Just like the previous generation, the LTE network that is supplied also has download speeds and uploads a maximum of 300mbps and 150mbps which has 2x technology supported carrier aggregation. You can also insert two nano SIM cards and microSD cards simultaneously which of course will spoil the user more. Other connection provisions also did not disappoint with the presence of Wi-Fi 802.11 a / b / g / n.
You can also connect this device to a Wi-Fi network and utilize the Wi-Fi Direct feature for faster data transfer. Sharing internet networks is also possible with the Wi-Fi Hotspot feature. The embedded NFC chip also supports Android Beam which can be used to share data with other devices.
You can connect the data cable included in the sales package to the PC for data transfer needs. One thing that needs to be observed is the use of USB Type-C on this device certainly requires a special connector if you want to use the USB OTG feature that is crammed into it.
Continuing their efforts to further popularize modular mobile phones, Motorola launched the next generation device called Moto Z2 Play. Improvements in terms of design and camera are the selling points of this device. While the compatibility of this device with MotoMods released last year is also a plus value of 6.5 million devices. MotoApps built-in feature support is ready to help users operate this device more easily. In short, if you haven't had time to try out modular technology before then this phone is very worthy of consideration.
