(Telecompaper) Motorola Mobility has issued an official statement to clarify the reported move by parent company Lenovo to phase out the Motorola brand to focus on the product sub-brands Moto and Vibe. Although the Motorola brand will become less central to marketing, as a wholly owned subsidiary of Lenovo, Motorola Mobility will remain the engineering, design and manufacturing engine for all of the mobile business group's smartphones and wearables. In addition, the iconic M "batwing" logo will continue to be used extensively.
