There's no doubt of that, and this deal may have been a cornerstone in the agreement with Samsung. But the question is, how will this affect us, the consumers? I was considering Moto as my next phone because they were releasing nice hardware, free of bloatware and timely updates, but I don't know if Lenovo will keep it the same, so I will probably be looking at a Nexus device for my next update cycle instead, just to be safe.
