I'm glad they did make a comeback. Their budget phones are selling out on day one and remain mostly sold out in India atleast. The G series has been the GOAT for them.

[@decebaltrandafir]

Is like HTC they came back but are not really them. Motorola is just a name who belongs to China now. Motorola is dead just like Nokia.

[@Pearloryx]

I just got my first Motorola phone last year with G Styles and I love the phone because of lack of bloatware.

[@idrathernot_2]

G Stylus here in the USA, does everything I want a phone to do for a tiny fraction of a lot of other phones.

[@Warrior_Wulf]

My first ever phone was the am3180 in 1999, today I'm using a G22 but am looking at upgrading to a 5g Motorola device

[@transcedentalunity9475]

Namaskar, Greetings from Greece. I got a Motorola recently. And I was shocked at how value for money it is. I was exclusively buying Xiaomi phones before that. The Moto G series is the GOAT.

As an Indian, who owns the latest moto, i can confirm these guys are making absolutely beautiful phones in the budget and midrange categories and are giving a tough fight to established market giants like oppo vivo and Xiaomi which was previously thought to not be possible.

[@prathameshozarkar]

I like the look of the Motorola Edge 50 pro design

[@obesetuna3164]

Until my ancient Nokia finally died a death, I never even knew the meaning of a Smart phone. While my children are heavily invested in Apple products, the amount of technology you can buy in the UK for around £70 from Motorola, and others too, is simply incredible. As an older person, I really can't see the point in spending more.

[@chriscarter2101]

Me too. And for £70. if it breaks I buy a new one.

[@SprattyD]

I am in Australia and my father in law needed a new phone thanks to our 3G being shut down... I found a Motorola reduced down to $138, it is a solid phone with a decent camera, it might clog up a bit if you had a ton of apps open at once but for its price it is insanely worth it. Also it has features many more expensive phones purged like SSD card slot and an audio jack, it even game with a phone cover but oddly no usb c cable. I am glad a phone like this exists which has an alright camera, can handle most modern apps and doesn't cost you around a grand.

By coincidence, I watched this video on my Motorola Edge smartphone. I've had a long line of Motorola phones, and my next phone will be one of theirs. Reasonable prices and none of the garbage that Samsung adds to the Android OS.

[@Snorlaxiian]

Motorola is bare bones... not being mean, either, I use a Moto G Play 2024 :)

[@deadskull888]

I don't like their update cycle, it's bad my edge 30 pro till today still stuck on android 13. And it's build quality is not too good either. But camera is good enough, feature rich too. Just don't buy their top of the line product.

[@ponocni1]

I like their budget phones, ok hardware, big battery and not much nonsense features for good price. Solid phones.

[@radhakrishnaupadhyayak1684]

My first smartphone was a Motorola E3 Power which is an entry level device and it lasted me for 6 years with very good battery backup and was still good. I had to upgrade because the device was slow and the apps became taking lots of power out of the processor.

Dude I just started using a Motorola phone last year and it has been great, like lack of bloatware is what made me buy this phone over others like Samsung. Hopefully, HTC would also become as successful as this.

I was like why would an Indian guy praise the Chinese company for reviving Motorola, then I learned it had nothing to do with China’s super efficient supply chain or the management team at Lenovo, it’s just one man who single-handedly saved the company from the brink.

Used to have all Sony phones. My last one was my first other one and went for a Samsung. Didn't like it much from day one. Now I just bought a Motorola and been using it for a week. I really like it so far.

[@jetscreamer1]

Motorola is great if you don’t need annual OS upgrade. The OS that came with the phone is the only one you’re going to get.

[@benholroyd5221]

No, you do get an update or 2. Not as long as for flagship phones, but considering you can upgrade every year for less than the cost of those flagships....

[@AlexFlockhart]

Better than Samsung, which eventually slow your phone down to the point where pulling up the on screen keyboard is a struggle.

Don't the brand new ones have 5 years of updates like their competitors?

I had both the 1st and 2nd gen Moto X phones and I absolutely loved and still miss them. Beyond the trail-blazing ability to order a custom color combination and inscription on the back, they were a great build quality and value.

My first android phone was the Motorola Atrix and I also got the lapdock. It was before it's time and it just needed more power. My first cellphones were the big brick motorola and the startac. They were definitely the best at the time. It would be great to see a Motorola resurgence. I am a Samsung man now..

[@HkSx12]

Theres an inaccuracy. motorola invented the android os and google brought it from them.

[@asmrfan0304]

I'm a big fan of Motorola phones, I just wish they would improve their update policy. Then I would hands down exclusively buy their phones.

[@kimosabid95]

Can confirm that in Mexico is widely used, I started seeing them with the first moto g, then I got the G2. It was just an spectacular phone for the price. In the same price range Samsung and LG where just bad phones, I remember in that time Lg had the L7 in the midrange and it was a one core cpu phone for roughly the same price.

[@Damons-Old-Soul]

8:30 To be fair to Google, they went after the patents because Apple was suing every Android phone manufacturer, claiming patent infringement on technology that they either standardized after stealing from other companies or was just the simple & obvious evolution of how to do something on a touchscreen (swiping the screen to unlock is an example). Knowing that Motorola had most of the backend patents to the infrastructure, Google bought them to defend Android from Apple's non-stop attacks. At the time it was referred to as The Patent Wars. The fact that the end of this happened around the time of Jobs passing, I'm sure _was just coincidentally_ when Google gained the patents to take on Apple if they kept up their attacks.

[@qwill8254]

As a nokia / hmd purest i would have say Motorola was only manufacturer i would considered before it was sold to Chinese

[@LoveClassicMusic0205]

Motorola phones were awesome back in the day. The RAZR was the best. Time marches on however. Right now I'm sad that LG stopped making phones. I have one right now and it's the best phone I ever owned. Unfortunately, I won't be able to buy a replacement from them. I'm not sure what I will buy when this one dies.

[@lakerskid2013]

I remember my mom had a Motorola that was really small and in silver, can’t seem to find out what it’s called but she also had a V276 flip phone and one of my brothers owned a Motorola flip phone as well. When I had basic phones I owned an LG VX5400 flip phone and an LG Venus which was my first touch screen phone followed by a Pantech Hotshot that was an all touchscreen phone. As far as smartphones go, I’ve had the iPhone as my only ones which I’ve had the 4, 5S, 6, and 8 Plus before upgrading to a 15.

[@0fficialdregs]

Motorola Razr 50 +/Ultra is awesome. Love how you can run it on your TV like a destop PC. A few of my friends have converted to Motorola, because of this feature. We all use it when travelling. Apple doesnt have anything like this. Samsung does of course.

[@pbsa1979]

Dude, I had a Motorola A925 smartphone in 2003. it was a touch screen, with stylus included, and several batteries. running on symbian from what i remember. had a vga camera that could be rotated to face forward or back. it was, clunky. slow, ate batteries faster than I could charge them. but, i do consider it a smartphone. I replaced it with Sony P800 year later. Apple only deserves credit for making the UI smooth...

[@yonutz333]

Why didn't you cover their new Razr foldables?

[@andersd8956]

I've only had bad luck with expensive Samsung and Apple products...I'm going back to Motorola...and here I find out their new Razr + for 2024 "flip-phone" is the best in the world...Who would have thought? I guess I'm so far behind that I'm ahead of the game again...

Have the razr 40 ultra. Great phone for the price. Used their radios almost exclusively at work too and they were as reliable as you could wish for. Used to use the original flip phone too. Hope they keep it up and not drop off again.

[@anfhe]

more than a decade ago my uncle used to have a motorola flip phone that looked like a little toy car. he got it as a hand me down from my dad, forgot where my dad got it though. my uncle used that phone for so long, and i used to think it was the coolest phone ever, and im not even a car person. seeing them becoming more popular again (esp their version of the samsung flip phone) has been really nostalgic, like when i started seeing nokia at the mall again being sold beside samsung.

[@CaptainToadUK]

Everyone thinks that smartphones were the start of the downfall of Motorola. Always expressed as the iPhone, even though Moto themselves were making smartphones before Apple. But the sad truth is that the original RAZR was what nearly killed them. Sure they sold over 130m of them but they literally put all their eggs into that basket. Phones like the MPx200 (a smart flip phone that pre-dates the iPhone by four years) did as well as similar offerings from Samsung at the time but were not promoted like the PEBL, RIZR, ROKR, SLVR and especially the RAZR because people liked the flashy dumb phones. But when that's all you're known for and the world suddenly pivots to iPhones and Blackberries, those phones quickly look antiquated. They had production lines churning them out by the millions and suddenly, the market was gone and the smartphones that they could have quickly pivoted to had been dropped because they didn't sell anywhere near as well as the flashy phones

[@KanishQQuotes]

Good thing Lenovo let motorola do their own thing Lenovo phones always suffered with software issues even though good hardware

[@JustaReadingguy]

The cell phone store is only a small part of the store. 1980 they had the best and most popular microprocessor, but gave that away when the IBM compatible came out. Even in the cell phone business they couldn't adapt. They were all about analog phones but the world went digital, crushing sales. Additionally they started spinning off businesses and transferred their debt to them and the spin offs went under. They also sold off their government businesses to raise cash. It's a long and complex history.
