When it comes to Android phone brands, the close relationship between Google’s Pixel phones and Motorola’s smartphones cannot be ignored. Motorola, which was owned by Google from 2012 to 2014, had a reputation for making phones with useful features that made users’ lives easier. While Google sold off Motorola and continued on its own smartphone path, the now Lenovo-owned phone maker still produces handsets with a clean user experience comparable to Google’s own.
