I will never buy a Motorola phone.
Back in the early 2000's, my then girlfriend received a Motorola cellphone for her birthday. Her sister bought the same model a week later. The thing worked fine, but some time after the guarantee period expired, the screen flipped upside down. Very strange problem to have. Exactly a week later, the same thing happend to her sisters phone.
Since then, that brand leaves a very bad taste in my mouth.

- OnlineGladiator 7y agoI think it depends on the offense. I'm still upset with Sony over the rootkit scandal. It's actually why I chose to buy an Xbox One over a PS4. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_BMG_copy_protection_rootkit_scandal https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_BMG_copy_protection_rootk...
- mywacaday 7y agoMy previous two phones were motorola, the moto x force was a workhorse for three years with a pretty much unbreakable screen, the joy of not having a case can't be underestimated. Regualar OS and security updates and very close to stock android and reasonably priced.
- aembleton 7y agoMotorola has changed hands twice since then. They are now part of Lenovo. The only thing that is the same is the brand name.
- garaetjjte 7y agoThey acquired whole phone division though, not just brand. E.g. inventor specified in this patent also have patents for Motorola hinged/sliding devices back to 2006, so it seems Lenovo didn't bought their corpse only for brand, like with HMD/Nokia.
