Moto 360 Watch Price, Release Date: Moto 360 is expected to be launched this summer. A lot has been anticipating the android wear made from premium sapphire metal. However, a report from Expert Reviews stated that unnamed sources claims the Motorola's wearable could be made of plastic. Reportedly the sources also claim the Moto 360 will still have wireless charging but will be thicker than both the LG G Watch and Samsung Gear 2.
Tech Radar reported that Motorola confirmed the Moto 360 charges wirelessly via magnetic induction. Motorola's Andoid wear photos reveal the rear of the watch features a strange purple backing. It is speculated to be used for the Qi charging method.
According to Expert Reviews, the Moto 360 will come with a choice of metal or leather straps based on the limited images revealed by Motorola. Reportedly, the company confirmed that there will be other available selection at the smartwatch's debut.
Rumor suggests that the Moto 360 watch screen is a custom-made OLED display. Reportedly, OLEDs consume as much as 40% less power when displaying black images vs LCDs because they can turn off individual pixels.
Motorola confirmed according to Tech Radar that the Moto 360 is compatible with all Android 4.3 and Android 4.4 phones and tablets that take advantage of battery-sipping Bluetooth 4.0 technology.
Motorola casually hinted on the price of the smart gadget through the official rules of a contest, suggesting that its "average retail value" is $249.
Reportedly, actual details of the Moto 360 remain slim. Google only confirmed in the recently concluded Google I/O conference that the Moto 360 would be out later in the summer according to IT Pro Portal. In any way, use of cheaper plastic materials could help bring down the Moto 360's price.
