If you listen to the Google bulls, the company's acquisition is designed to gather patents and make sure Android is protected from potential attacks by Apple and Microsoft.
If you listen to everyone else, Google just dealt a huge blow to its biggest Android partners, especially Samsung and HTC.

With its massive $12.5 billion purchase, Google is now a hardware company. And we think it's going to favor its Motorola hardware over the competition.
Hopefully, this ends up being a good thing for consumers. It could mean higher-quality devices from Motorola since it will have the advantage of working closely with Google. It could also push Samsung, HTC, and LG to step up their game to compete.
But based on our experience Google-Motorola has a long way to go. Samsung, HTC, and LG consistently make the best Android phones right now. Motorola ranks a distant fourth.
We put together the best, most powerful Android phones and tablets out there that Google-Motorola will be competing with.
#10 T-Mobile MyTouch 4G
T-Mobile's MyTouch 4G, which is manufactured by LG, is an excellent deal if you're a subscriber. It connects to the carrier's 4G network and it isn't bogged down with a bunch of crapware from T-mobile and LG.
#9 HTC Droid Incredible 2
HTC's Droid Incredible 2 is pretty standard Android fare. But unlike many Motorola devices, it stands out for it's build quality and exceptional HTC Sense skin.
To find out what else we thought about the Incredible 2, read our full review.
#8 T-Mobile G-Slate
T-Mobile's G-Slate, which is actually manufactured by LG, makes an excellent Honeycomb-powered alternative to Samsung's Galaxy Tab 10.1. It starts at just $250, and runs on T-Mobile's 4G network.
