When other mobile manufacturers spend their time on Flagship mobile improvements, Moto always focused on mid-range mobiles. Because people begin to realize spending $1000 on Flgahsips is not that much worthy, While $300-500 mobiles can give better performance. The old days are over. Mid-range mobiles are slowly becoming worthy flagships, and the real flagships keep going on high in prices. When a company releases a mobile for $300 range, they mostly use their custom skin OS. It is a reason why some people are not interested in the mid-range. But Moto always uses near Stock Android and Moto One devices; they are using Android One. They release Moto One Fusion and Fusion+ with slightly different specs but with the Same Android 10 version.
