Are you comfortable in your own skin? Is your phone comfortable in its skin? Rate this thread to express how you deem the skin on the Moto G6. A higher rating indicates that you love it: it adds just the right amount of features, it's visually pleasing, and overall it's additive to the experience. If this is a Nexus phone (you didn't think we hand-wrote all of these prompts, did you?) then use this rating to indicate how the latest version of Android looks to you.

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

It's pretty much stock Android 8.0 on the G6, and I love it. The circular clock widget is the only thing I've noticed as being different, but I find it to be a nice, fairly useful touch. You can't go wrong with pure android. Good job Motorola.

It's pretty much stock Android 8.0 on the G6, and I strongly approve. The circular clock widget is the only thing I've noticed as being different, but I find it to be a nice, fairly useful touch.

As for software, again, pretty much stock, at least on my Republic Wireless, 3GB RAM model. Moto mods are an awesome addition, Dolby audio is moderately useful and the FM radio at least works well (for however often you find yourself in need of a radio and can't get to a car. Which for me is almost never). Other than that, same GApps as usual, not a bloated phone. You can't go wrong with pure android. Good job Motorola.

I have not had the need to use a third party launcher (sorry, Nova). Also, the system itself is nearly bloat free. I do use a few of the Moto apps, though. It's responsive enough for me, so I don't have to tweak the animations via developer options.
