    I used to recommend Motorola to people who wanted to buy a phone from an American company, but they’re owned by Lenovo now.

      So what? I own a Motorola edge 2021 and it works perfect, not to mention how many times fall down, and not a single break. The flash light feature is the best so far, shake your phone up and down, you have a light!

        My edge slowed to the point of unusability. I switched to a moto g. The thing had an absolutely shit antenna, in certain areas it would just lose signal and never get it back even in areas I should have great signal. It would sometimes fail to make calls telling me to use wifi calling even though it was on. It wouldn’t get any signal on my 2.4ghz home network. People frequently couldn’t hear me on phone calls. I had to go outside at work to load videos or make calls. The screen simply wouldn’t get bright enough to use on a sunny day.

        I’ve historically bought middle of the line moto phones because they are generally good enough to do what I need while not costing a grand, but the last two have been disappointing as fuck. I sprung for a new major model from another manufacturer and the difference is night and day. I can actually load videos in an interior room of a concrete building, which is nuts to me.

        Also own a Motorola Edge 40 Neo. Ofcourse it’s not the best Phone on the Market but it is quite fast and has plenty of battery capacity. I think if you buy it on a Sale it get’s you an awesome bang for your buck.

        They’re probably decent phones but I think the other commenter was more concerned with security.

        Lenovo in particular has a history of having software baked into the BIOS that would install without consent on fresh install.
