maybe my next phone will be a Motorola.

Me too. I've always bought Google Pixels but I don't want to give Google my money anymore.

So I'll probably buy a Motorola if this deal gets through.

My last few phones have been Motorolas and I've been very very happy with them.

My only issue was that back then, I wasn't really paying attention to alternative OSs like Graphene, Lineage or e/os and was therefore not really too concerned with ROM support/chip set. When I switched over to e/os, two of my Motorola's (including the one I WANT to use with it) has no ROM support because it's running a Mediatek chipset. So I'm using my second to last one while my nice new one collects dust.

Moving forward I'll be paying more attention to Qualcomm vs Mediatek.

yeah i might focus on Android phones that have Good ROM/ support
i think their graphene OS powered phone will have bootloader unlocking.

i hope Google does not take away Sideloading. (but i think graphene returns it)

i bought a mororolla 3 years ago and it still lasts 2 days on a charge. id say go for it.

i gotta see first if Motorola/Lenovo will actually ship graphene OS and other factors.
they dont sound like bad phones and even better with this collab
