Last year, Motorola introduced a rather interesting device, aimed at businesses. That was the Motorola ThinkPhone, using one of Lenovo’s most popular brands – ThinkPad – and bringing it to their phone lineup.

      I think the ThinkPhone line gets more consistent update support than others. Motorola promises monthly updates on their website, whereas other devices (like the Edge or razr series) only receive bi-monthly update promises. I have heard from ThinkPhone owners that Motorola pushes the updates out relatively quickly too, which is not the case with its other devices.

    7 years of support and full bootloader unlocking support. Share the kernel and firmware properly like Xiaomi does, and we can talk.

    As a lifelong Thinkpad fan (even current gen ones), I would be seriously interested in this as long as it qualifies for bootloader unlocking. LineageOS on a Thinkpad-quality phone would be amazing and a welcome companion for my X1 Carbon.

    Really, really wish bootloader unlocking was listed in the specs for devices.

      Heck, it should be mandatory. I bought it, I should be able to do whatever I want with it. Its like that for PCs, why not smartphones?
