According to the article, it was a little obvious that it'd be Motorola. To me it's unexpected as I wasn't following this all that closely. In any case, I'm personally pleased with the OEM choice. I'll need to do some research on Motorola's smartphones to prepare for the one/s that support Graphene.
They are basically stock android with minimal bloatware for a decent price. I've been using them for years. There's the whole Lenovo scandal but its hard to find any decent phone I want nowadays so concessions need to be made somewhere
I have Edge 50 pro and I can tell you it is full of shit. Meta services, their own shitty services installing crap of their choice, adware they are reenabling as soon as you disable it... You'll need
adbto remove all that.yikes, I noticed a lot of that crap is added by phone carriers themselves
I'm mainly interested in the hardware, i.e., screen, camera, build quality, that kind of stuff. Though it's good to know about the software, since Graphene will most likely be the same with its security features.
Their hardware's usually 'fine' not great, but with decent screens and battery life.
I was following closely - checking for updates weekly or more, while struggling to be so much as content with my P9FP and trying to decide whether to upgrade to a P10FP (marginal upgrades on paper, but they really help out in the weakest areas).
Still entirely unexpected to me, and even in my wildest hypotheticals, Motorola was not on my radar.
