Motorola’s Moto 360 has made an appearance on Best Buy prior to its launch on September 4th. The leaked posting on Best Buy shows the smartwatch priced at $249.
This makes the Moto 360 $50 cheaper than the $300 Samsung Galaxy Gear 2 while more expensive than the $230 LG G Watch and the $200 Galaxy Gear Live that are Android One devices. In addition to giving out the price tag, the Best Buy listing which was later taken down also revealed specifications of the smartwatch. The round dial of the Moto 360 is 1.5-inch backlit LCD touch screen with a 320 x 290 resolution display along with Gorilla Glass 3 for protection.
The listing claims that the smartwatch sports a heart rate monitor, a pedometer and is water resistant. It describes the CPU as a “Texas Instruments Processor” without any mention of model number or clock speed. Moto 360 will support Bluetooth and be compatible with most devices running Android 4.3 or later. Finally, the specs also indicate that the Moto 360 will be equipped with “Wireless N” compatibility. Earlier this month a different leak had suggested that the watch will have a wireless charging dock.
Last week, Motorola announced an event on September 4 where it will debut Moto X+1, an updated Moto G and the Moto 360.
