The Moto 360’s 355mAh battery charges on the included cradle, and eBuyNow says it can go from dead to fully charged in just sixty minutes, which is considerably faster than most other smartwatches on the market right now. The lower button can be customized to launch an app of your choice. The top button also rotates, letting you scroll through the interface with a twist, just like the rotating crowns on Fossil watches or the Apple Watch. The 1.2-inch, fully-circular (no “flat tire” here) 360 x 360 pixel touchscreen is an OLED panel with an always-on option, and there are two buttons on the side of the watch. You’ll be able to get it in silver, rose gold, or black stainless steel finishes. It also has a heart rate monitor, GPS, and NFC for mobile payments. It runs Wear OS, and like Fossil’s fifth-generation Wear OS watches, the new Moto 360 has a fully circular display, Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 3100 processor, 1GB of RAM, and 8GB of storage. The Moto 360 third-generation, as eBuyNow is referring to the product, will cost $349.99 when it ships in December. The upper button is a rotating crown that can be used to scroll through the interface The new Moto 360 is made by a company called eBuyNow, which describes itself as “an independent, data-driven consumer electronics company” that “work with proprietary tools to identify precise gaps in the consumer electronics industry, and then proceed to build, market, and distribute promising consumer electronics goods with a strictly results-oriented approach.”Īpparently, that means licensing and resurrecting a dead smartwatch brand from Motorola and releasing a new product under its name. Fast forward three years and the Moto 360 smartwatch has returned, though not in the way you might expect. At the time, the company indicated there just wasn’t enough interest in wearable devices for the company to continue investing in the category.

'We find Opera to be a great option for Web browsing solutions for mobile devices,' Ruchi Mangalik, director of the software portfolio for Motorola's personal communications sector, said in a statement.

Oslo-based Opera contends its browser allows users to surf all Internet pages, rather the much smaller number tailored for earlier generations of phones, and requires less memory than Internet Explorer.

Fewer than 10 million of the estimated 500 million handsets being sold worldwide this year are considered smart phones.īut the segment is expected to grow quickly, and Opera's browser, heralded by its users for being compact and fast, has gained ground as a platform of choice for portable devices. Smart phones, combining the features of cell phones and handheld computers, have been introduced in only a handful of countries and remain sparse in the United States. Opera's vice president for sales, Nils Boilesen, said that since there is space for only one browser on most phones 'we feel that with this agreement Motorola has decided to go with Opera' instead of Microsoft's Internet Explorer. The choice is significant because Motorola said last year it would team with Microsoft and use its operating system to power 'smarter' cell phones for Web-hungry consumers.
