By buying Motorola Mobility 12.5 billion (approximately EUR 8.6 billion), Google is the largest acquisition in its history. As confirmed by Larry Page on the official Google blog, it is Motorola commitment towards mobile devices shipping Android who created this match between the 2 companies. He also confirmed that the two companies will operate separately and thatAndroid will remain an open system. A message to manufacturers such as Samsung or LG that integrate Android in the Smartphone.

But with this acquisition which has surprised everyone, Google appropriates especially over 20,000 patents. An asset which, without Google from the trial, should enable it to better protect the development of Android. Indeed Apple has recently announced its intention to sue Motorola for banning the Xoom whose design would be too close to that of the iPad.
