Motorola joined the ranks of Samsung and Pebble in the wearable tech market with its Moto 360 Smartwatch.
Unlike Samsung’s Gear, Moto 360 features a rounded face and design that looks and feels like a normal wristwatch.

Since Moto 360 is powered by Google’s modified Anroid OS for wearables called Android Wear, it responds to you when you say “Okay Google”.
You can say “Okay Google, when will my flight leave?” and it will answer you with the correct answer. You can even send a text message!
The best I’ve seen so far is when you use Moto 360 when traveling and using Google Maps.

We don’t have the spec of Moto 360 yet. Motorola will hold a Google Hangout on March 20 to announce the specifics of the device.
Nevertheless, we already know that Moto 360 can have a metal or leather strap. The metal one looks better though.
The official suggested retail price of Moto 360 hasn’t been revealed but it will be available starting June 2014 initially in the US.
