As we look at the list of Motorola phones released in 2023, here is a reminder that Motorola phones once ruled the industry globally. That was a time long ago, before Nokia became the king, and before Android OS and iOS existed. Today, the former American cell phone brand is no longer as big as it used to be, but it is still making and selling smartphones to a few million people in the United States, Canada, India, and Russia, among others.
In the United States, Motorola phones still have some mindshare and is a trusted brand available to cellular subscribers through major US prepaid channels like Verizon, Metro by T-Mobile, Cricket, and Boost, as well as through independent retailers. According to CounterPoint Research, Motorola became the third-largest smartphone brand in the United States in 2021, capturing around 10% of the country’s smartphone market after the exit of LG from the smartphone market [1].
