I was so excited to see the KitKat OTA arrive on my device yesterday. This version update unlocks some great additional functionality. Unfortunately, my excitement was tempered by a feeling of impending disappointment.
Hopefully, time will prove me wrong but I have zero faith that Lenovo will bother keeping up with the standard set by Google and Motorola. How soon before Lenovo ignores the glorious Moto X for it's own Lenovo-designed devices? How long before Lenovo starts messing up the almost stock version of Android with it's own ugly software implementation? How inclined will Lenovo be to release major version upgrades at near-Nexus speeds? Should I have any expectations that Lenovo will support this phone as anything other than an also-ran? Oy! The Moto X was one of a kind. I always felt it represented the future of Android even better than the Nexus line. It will be so sad to see this great phone meet such an undignified end.
