How does everyone feel about Motorola phones?

I have one of the Moto Edges, can't say I have many complaints outside of the slow charging and a dead pixel that developed a year in.

The edges didn't bother me as much as I thought it would, I can even use it as trigger to play Citra games which I couldn't do with a flat phone so that was nifty. Clean software, long battery life, but terrible update schedule though.

@MargotRobbie Used to be decent value, but they've made a mess of it with far too many very similar models with pointless specs like 2-5mp macro lenses and such, also their update policy is abysmal, my motorola G4 play got left to rot lol. Not the only manufacturer guilty of this of course.

I also think they should bring Ready For to as many devices in their lineup as they can. It's an interesting differentiator.

Let me tell you a secret: There are so many similar, redundant Moto phones because for their lower end devices, they are all build by different white label manufacturers and Lenovo just slaps a label onto them.

@MargotRobbie honestly doesn't surprise me, it just seems unhelpful, you'd think for all the inspiration most android manufacturers take from apple, they'd copy the lineup density. But nope.
