Motorola removes all mention of Android Oreo from the Moto G4 lineup
In today’s episode of “The Internet Never Forgets,” Motorola is trying to erase the Android Oreo promise from the Moto G4 lineup. Let’s see how that’s going for them:
This is really fucked up. I still remember when Motorola launched the Moto G4 promising to update to Android O. Wonder why they don’t. https://t.co/xWXgNxLohZ

When the Moto G4 was launched, Motorola specifically mentioned that it would receive Android N and Android O. It was clearly listed on the website, but now, the mention of Android O has mysteriously vanished. You can see the before and after screenshots below.
Motorola and Lenovo made the Android O claim in a number of places at launch, but now they’re all gone. Customers are rightly upset about this. Not only did Motorola make a promise and not keep it, but they’re trying to weasel out of it in a sneaky way. That’s not cool. Motorola has been pretty bad with updates since Lenovo was put in charge.
