Google to Sell Motorola to Lenovo for $2.91 Billion
The fastest way to flush $9 Billion down the toilet
Also a shame, the Moto X was a terrific phone- probably the best Android handset made to date.

The Moto X is an OKAY phone at best. It lacked several features available on Top Tier phones (microSD Card support, Removable battery, etc).
The Samsung Galaxy 4 and Note 3 are some of the BEST Android devices currently available.
Who needs a removable battery when your phone lasts a day and a half to two days?
The HTC ONE is way better than the Galaxy s4 and it doesn't have those 2 "features"

Android does not support microSD cards. Who would want a microSD card anyways? They break down all the time. They are the most unreliable pieces of hardware.

Are you serious?!? ๐คจ
I've got several microSD cards and NONE of them has ever failed. You are talking BS. My current phone has 32GB of built-in storage (14GB used so far). And I've got a 64GB microSD card that has over 40GB of stuff (music, videos, pictures, documents) on it installed in that same phone. So until phones start offering internal storage...

Everyone I know who has had an SD Card has had them fail.
I only need to store a couple movies or tv shows at a time on my device and 32GB on my HTC ONE is just fine.
I have 4G connection EVERYWHERE I go. I still have unlimited.
Actually, it is estmated that 40% of device issues are caused by battery malfunction. There is much more to batteries than just "lasting a whole day" on charge. More ammo that batteries shouldn't be rendered un-removable. The carriers want us to warrant a trip to the service center where we can spend upwards of 200 dollars for a refurbished handset. Theh then replace the battery in your perfectly good device for next to nothing and re-issue to another unsuspecting consumer for 200 dollars. It's a circle find fighting against Iis worth the time.
SD cards are far more stable than you give them credit for. It is ...

The carriers don't control manufacturers. Apple on their own decided not to use SD cards because of their lack of reliability. Google decided on their own as well. HTC I think let Verizon talk them into not having an SD on the Droid DNA. That was dumb. 16BG is really not enough space.
People who need SD cards are a very small niche.
However, I am not totally buying the idea of carrier control for the direction even though it makes sense. Regardless, the revenue created by such a move, is far more lucrative than a customer changing their own battery.
Apple has always employ...

Isn't it the point of a business to make money. If cloud services didn't make money then they wouldn't be in business. Why is dropbox even in business when you can just use a flash drive? Because it more convient. If I have 25000 songs on my SD card and it goes out, what do I do? I have now lost 25000 songs and I can't get them back. But if they are backed up in the cloud then they are still safe.
