    It’s called the Moto One. Motorola doesn’t make phones. Lenovo makes those, they bought the Motorola mobility brand years ago.

        People buy them all the time thinking they’re buying a Motorola phone. They’re not the first person to be upset/disappointed that I pointed that out.

      Oh my stars and garters, was I not specific with my words? Am I ignorant to which company has acquired other companies so I can be as technical as possible?

      Or did I buy this phone, the one I’m typing on now, from the Motorola website, and it came in a box covered in motorola branding? How absolutely idiotic of me to assume Moto was short for Motorola.

      I can not believe I was this wrong on the internet. The damage I’ve done to the collective knowledge of everyone who’s seen my comment, who didn’t know any better, can never be healed.
