This year manufacturers have decided to launch terminals with one of the editions of Google's operating system. Android One is in almost all mid-range mobiles as a claim to those users looking for a powerful terminal, with good software, but at an affordable price. Motorola, a company belonging to Lenovo, has presented the Motorola Moto One at the IFA, a mobile phone that, as its name suggests, includes Android One. In addition, it has a very elegant design, panoramic screen and does not lack in performance.
What do we find inside this Moto One? The truth is that there are no surprises. For performance, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 626 processor accompanied with 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of internal storage, which is expandable via micro SD cards. Its screen is 5.9 inches with an HD + resolution and a 19: 9 widescreen format. It includes a 3,000 mAh battery with fast charging and Android 8.1 Oreo, although it will update to Android 9 pie soon.
Android One is the main protagonist. This is a special version of Google's cheap mobile operating system, but it has some requirements. With One there is no customization layer, therefore we are talking about Android Stock. There are also no pre-installed third-party applications or extra settings that can layer the user experience. Therefore, the user gets the best fluency from the operating system. In addition, Google ensures updates on Android One devices, something that other manufacturers cannot include with their customization layer.
