Comment This is bad. (Score 1) 56
I've been using Motorola for my Smartphones since the G2, something like 10 years ago. I've alwas liked the fair budget options and the clean initial setup that was close to stock Android and only came with some really good and useful Moto stuff like the radio, Moto Actions and a quite neat camera app.
That Motorola comes up with a model that has shovelware on it is a first AFAICT. Don't like it. They've been bloating their lineup in recent years, I suspected that was also due to lack of parts and having to go with lots of options, but this shovelware non-sense points in a different direction: Managers milking a good established brand for a cheap throwaway increase in revenue, quality and long-term reputation be damned.
