They are owned by Lenovo, they were sold earlier this year. And the latest Moto phones (from the X onwards) have had a next to pure Android experience, with just a few apps (useful ones, at that) thrown in, like Moto migrate. Moto have been doing it right - the high end is crowded and is saturating, so instead of fighting a losing battle they concentrate on the mid and lower end, where margins are smaller, but volumes are that much higher. The Moto G and E have been selling especially well in emerging markets, and are ideal for people moving up from a feature phone. At $179 and $129 respectively, off contract, they are the best bang for the buck.
