Was, they sold it on to Lenovo in 2014.

Literally the first three words of the announcement that this submission is about are "Motorola, a Lenovo Company".

Motorola was subsequently sold to Lenovo in 2014.

Is that still up to date? On Motorola Mobility's Wikipedia page [1] it says

> [Motorola Mobility LLC] is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Hong Kong based Chinese technology giant Lenovo.

Lenovo is a publicly traded company, and according to its shareholding structure report for 2025 [2] its main shareholder is Legend Holdings Corporation. (Lenovo is also listed as a subsidiary on Legend Holding Corporation's Wikipedia page [3].)

Legend Holding Corporation is again publicly traded, with all big shareholders being Chinese according to its 2024 annual report [4]. The biggest one is CAS Holdings with 30% of the shares.

The China Academy of Sciences is owned by the Chinese government.

So it seems like if Google still owns part of Motorola Mobility, it's not a main shareholder.

Google sold the company to Lenovo in 2014

Cunningham's Law in full effect!

No it's not. Google sold Motorola to Lenovo like a decade ago.

They sold Motorola to Lenovo in 2014

Only for two years: https://news.lenovo.com/pressroom/press-releases/lenovo-comp...

Didn't you read the article? It's kinda hard to miss the Lenovo all through the press release.

Motorola is a lenovo company.

Atleast in the former moto Phone I had, even its boot sequence included the logo of motorola and then saying, a lenovo company.

It was a google company before 2014 but it was sold in 2014.

No, Lenovo owns Motorola

Google owned it 2012-2014

I was going to ask wasn't motorola bought and sold so many times that it ended up in Chinese hands. It ended up in Google's hands instead... Ngl, kind of underwhelming from Graphene

Edit: wait, that's old news, it is part of Lenovo...
