If you paid close attention to the poster, you might have noticed the smartphone bears an uncanny resemblance to the Moto One Vision launched in India last month. This isn't that surprising, as Motorola re-branded the Moto One-series of smartphone to Moto P30 in China. This was mainly because Moto One smartphones run the Android One operating system, that is full of Google functionalities. Smartphones sold in China are barred from using pre-installed Google apps.
