Motorola Moto 360 Smartwatch: The First Circular Accessory Running on Android

Have you ordered your Motorola watch already? If you didn't make it last time on ts initial online offering, you now have the chance to place an order again. New stocks are now available and can be bought in the United States. Fans can rejoice because these watches now come in stone leather band and dark leather band options.

Moto 360 is the third Android Wear to be sold in US, following the LG Watch and Samsung Gear Live, which were released in July. The Motorola watch seems a bit different in the outside, but it functions almost the same as the other Android watches.

The latest wearable from Google is an offering to combat another smartwatch, the Apple Watch. Motorola has made the watch the first circular accessory running on Android. It is stylish and sophisticatedly made with its stainless design.

The design ditches its square-shaped rivals such as the LG G Watch and Samsung Gear Live. The wearable is available at price of $250.

The New Motorola Moto 360 Smartwatch is endowed with a round design and incorporates a 1.5-inch LCD touchscreen. It has a scratch-resistant Gorilla Glass 3 protective casing for a sturdier appearance. The watch is perfect for health conscious people with its health monitoring features. It has pedometer and a heart rate monitor to keep the user informed of his health status.

Moto 360 has built-in microphone so the users can talk with ease through voice commands. The device is IP67 dust and water resistant. Other features include vibration alert, access to flight status, emails, traffic updates and more.

The watch is compatible with smartphones running on Android 4.3 OS or higher. It houses a battery that can stand a day without worrying that it will be discharged. Moto 360 has a capacity of 4 GB internal storage memory and is supported with 512 MB RAM.

New Motorola Moto 360 Smartwatch has a unique magnetic Qi induction charging capability, which means that it can charge wirelessly. The innovative charging feature of the watch is its "secret sauce" that can't be seen in any other wearables. This is a plus.
