The Moto Z Play and its headphone jack are now available for $450
The little brother to the Moto Z and Moto Z Force, the Moto Z Play, was unveiled at IFA 2016 and looks to be a pretty reliable device for those not looking to spend more than $500 on a device. The Z Play offers the same modular functionality of its brethren while keeping the 3.5mm headphone jack and offering a decent set of mid-range specs. Best of all, you can now purchase this device from Motorola.
Moto Z Play Specs:
- 5.5-inch 1080p Super AMOLED display (517 nits max brightness)
- Snapdragon 625 processor Adreno 506 GPU
- 3GB RAM
- 32GB storage w/micro SD card slot
- 16MP camera f/2.0 (laser and PD AF)
- 3,510mAh
- Fingerprint reader water-repellent
- 3.5mm headphone jack
- Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow
- Compatible with existing MotoMods
Motorola is offering the Moto Z Play through its own website for $450 outright, or you can go through Motorola’s financing to get the device for $17 per month. Currently, the website is showing that the device is still in its pre-order stage for some, so you’ll have to be patient if you want to jump on board with this bad boy. It’s also worth noting that the Z Play will be getting the update to Android 7.0 Nougat sometime in 2017, so you won’t have to worry about not getting the latest version of Android.
