A while back I bought a Motorola phone (one of the Moto G-something series) for a family member because I used to have one and had a good experience with it.

I regretted that decision because soon that phone developed a bunch of warts that were a pretty obviously Motorola's idea to monetize their users. It was a constant source of problems. The peak was MotoApps that was constantly popping up with questions and installing random shit on the phone.

That pretty much put Motorola on my dont-buy list.

For context, I had the moto g5 plus/ maybe g5 phone. Those phones might be so old that the concept of ads didn't come whereas every phone we bought after that did have ads/came with prepackaged apps.

So I may have had a rose tainted picture of Motorola and I didn't know this, Let's see what happens next tho. I can just hope that motorola stops with the ad and the motoapps that you are mentioning now that they are partnering up with graphene.
