Motorola had a few plans up its sleeves before the end of the current year. And as expected, it has executed all of them pretty perfectly. Today, apart from unveiling the brand new Moto G and Moto X handsets, the company has also released its brand new Moto 360 smartwatch.

The new Moto 360 smartwatch, unveiled not long ago, has become arguably one of the most anticipated Android Wear smartwatch. And that has been possible mostly due to its big round screen that actually looks a great upgrade from what we have seen in this industry all this while.
