    Stock Rom is the best, I prefer performance over resource hungry animation, near useless feature & bloatwares.

        AsusTech, 05 Aug 2017which part Nokia copied Motorola? coz I've used both brands... morepart that motorola use first: double mic cancellation, driver on internal (connect via pc without cd), finnger print, onboard part (this make razr very slim).
        google bought motorola to secure a lot of patents, so motorola never copy from nexus

            Anonymous, 04 Aug 2017so you mean to say that Lenovo is too lazy to give updates ... moreyou are right this is a bad move from Lenovo . Pure UI(former Vibe UI) is already near stock with additional feature like dual apps, app lock, secure zone etc which is not in pure stock android . pure android dont even have auto brightness toggle in notification panel. i am using k6 power. now lenovo mobiles will be similar to motorola. only hope is fast updates.

If u recall lenovo has done this even before they ditched vibe ui for vibe pure ui. AOSP is free for all using that does not mean coping.

                              Anonymous, 04 Aug 2017I have the Xperia M4 Aqua. Even though pretty close to stoc... moreI doubt that,since Sony skin is almost as light as pure android.Have bought that phone for my mother,and occasionaly take care for it... I am positive it has nothing to do with the OS version,but more with the super crappy and hot SD615.

                              P.S.main reason for buying that phone(besides waterproofing and few other things) was the gsmarena hyping the SoC as a very very good midrange.... which in real life turn out POS.And not just M4 but any other phone that using it,its laggy and hot as hell.

                                  So with stock android it will have one physical home button AND one on the screen? Awful.

Xiaomi removes ability to delete/archive Gmail email from notification shade. Chinese custom UIs remove many good stock functionalities to make their Android as stupid as ios.

                                      I have tried Sony, Xiaomi and Samsung phones. None of custom UIs is better than AOSP, including what is used by my current samsung s7.

Without the seperate rom, lenovo phones offer nothing much to moto
