What is Lenovo upto??!

Hey guys! So, Yesterday we saw the launch of Lenovo's New Smartphone 'K8 Note' . So what's special in this device is that, Lenovo ditches it's "PURE VIBE UI" and from now onwards LENOVO will be using "STOCK ANDROID" for it's upcoming phones. Other than that, Lenovo following the trend gives a Dual Camera Setup for camera enhancements, metal body etc.

But our main topic for the discussion is the shift from "PURE VIBE UI" TO "STOCK ANDROID". As we all know Lenovo launches many phones in a year but it struggles to keep those phones updated, Generally that is the problem with manufacturers providing Custom UI above Android

 base. With this shift we can hope that updates will be faster and Monthly Security Patches will be delivered sooner than later. 

Our discussion won't end up here, So while watching the Unboxing of K8 Note (by Phone Radar), there are few things that I noticed, let's just break them down in points:-

1. K8 Note using the same kind of icons as that of Moto Phones (part of Lenovo) and same camera app (Previous Lenovo Phones have Lenovo's Super Camera App).

2. Even the launcher and weather widget seemed similar to that of Moto's.

3. Even the pattern of Model Number seemed similar to that of Moto Phone (Moto Phone's Model numbers are like XTxxxx). And this type of pattern was never seen in Any Lenovo K series phones (and probably not in any Lenovo Phone).

Some of these steps make me wonder if Lenovo is going to merge it's Smartphones business with that of Moto's or not.. Will all Lenovo Phones will be branded as Moto Devices later on? Or am I just making a mountain out of a molehill.. What's your thought? Do Comment!!
