Not sure. Rumors pointed to in a month or two. We'll wait and see. As soon as it's ready to order, I'll open up a pre-order

Moto 360 in Metal Available Today for $299 – New Bands, Watch Faces, Health Apps Too

user posted image

Motorola just announced (and then pulled) that their Moto 360 watch will be available in metal later today for a price of $299. They will offer two colors initially – dark and light metal – with a new champagne finish arriving in time for the holidays. They also announced new slim bands for those with smaller wrists or who simply want a different look. The slim band in light metal will run $299; the Champagne finish Moto 360 will run $329.

Of course, you have already seen all of these, thanks to listings on Amazon that went up a week or so early. But, they are now official. Well almost, as soon as Motorola re-posts the announcement.

Also in today’s news, Motorola announced new accessory bands that can be purchased separately in stone, black, or cognac leather, along with the dark and light metals. Plus, they have partnered with brands like DODOcase (stitched leather bands) and TYLT (silicone bands) to offer even more options. The announcement doesn’t say specifically, but I would imagine that these will be available today as well.

On a watch face front, Motorola announced that an update to the Moto Connect app will introduce a new “My Design” watch face that allows you to customize everything from the background image to the style of the tick marks and watch hands. They also added the Design Face-Off winner’s watch face to the collection.

Finally, Motorola is introducing Moto Body, a fitness-inspired experience that tracks your steps, distance, heart rate, and calories. Moto Body will also be available through the new Moto Connect app.

As soon as everything goes live, we will be sure to let you know!

Here is the press release:

QUOTE

Crafted from aircraft-grade stainless steel, these bands feature a modern, contemporary tri-link design that complements the round face of Moto 360. Starting today, Moto 360 with light and dark metal bands are available on motorola.com for $299. Coming soon, we will offer Moto 360 with new slim bands, which is an option for smaller wrists or people who want a different look. Slim bands will be available in time for the holidays in light metal ($299) and a brand new champagne gold finish ($329).

New accessory bands
Already have a Moto 360? We’ll offer interchangeable stone, black and cognac leather bands along with light and dark metals.

The new My Design watch face option allows you to customize everything from the background image to the style of the tick marks and watch hands. We’ve also added the watch face created by the winner of our Moto 360 Design Face-Off. These new watch face options will be available for all Moto 360 watches through an update on the Moto Connect app1 within the next few days.

New wellness features
Moto 360 can help you make the most of every day. That’s why we’re bringing you Moto Body, an experience designed to inspire a healthier lifestyle. You can track your steps, distance, heart rate and calories. Based on the information collected, Moto Body will provide new goals to keep you motivated.

But gold much more expensive though. 18mm already USD329, if 23mm band? Maybe USD349.  ohmy.gif

Same price la, bro. 18 mm Metal Slim Band and 23 mm Metal Band both cost the same, so should the champagne gold

Alright. It's official, guys

Here's the list of bands that are available currently together with their price:
1) Dark/Light Metal: RM310
2) Brown (Cognac)/Stone/Black: RM120

Bands with 18 mm and champagne gold will be coming soon. I'll update once they're available for purchase

P/S: I'm not sure if it's really gray or not. The other day, we bought 'gray' from Verizon, but it turns out that it's actually stone

Some of the most common questions that I find interesting to be shared with

QUOTE
Q: Why such a dated SoC? The TI OMAP3630 is like four years old.
A: Great question - I’ll start by saying this had NOTHING to do with a dusty warehouse of old processors that we were compelled to buy because of our finance department. This was an engineering-driven decision, plain and simple. Our analysis on performance and battery life impact based on the early Android Wear requirements led to our decision.

QUOTE
Q: The metal band that was originally displayed with the Moto 360. Why has it been abandoned?
A: We’re excited to be working with new materials for Moto 360 bands, including metal. We go through many iterations on materials before deciding what will ultimately come to market. That being said, we still have a lot of heart for this early metal design.

QUOTE
Q: Do you think you will ever be able to make a fully round bezel-less display? What are the technical difficulties with that?
A: The difficulty is where to put the display driver. It's the chip that drives what goes on screen. We can have a fully round bezel-less display if the driver can be made much smaller (hiding it in the bezel) or if it sits under the display (which has never been achieved before)

QUOTE
Q: What are your opinions of th LG g-watch R with its fully round display?
A: We looked at fully round with the necessary thicker bezel (in order to cover the display driver) and compared that to a very thin bezel and slightly cropped round display. We strongly believed that our design with the beauty of our larger display, pixels to the edge, and thin bezel won the day. And the users we showed it to loved the watch and didn’t mention the crop so it was a done deal.

QUOTE
Q: Hello. Can you tell me what went into the decision to use processor that is in the Moto 360, and whether you believe that may limit it's life cycle for updates.
A: It won't prevent future updates

that kind of clasp is not comfortable to wear.

Looking at that guy wearing that, I don't see it that way. Have you tried?

QUOTE(Someonesim @ Nov 17 2014, 09:16 AM)
Promotional pictures always able to trick viewers but they never said back was steel etc.
Technically, wireless charging works even through metal, but significantly reduced efficiency. While kinetic watches able to charge wirelessly through metal plate, it has small battery and takes long time to charge. Moto 360 or phones etc use plastic back so charging efficiency was higher that it took short time to full charge the large battery.

Exactly. And I've never read anywhere that Motorola says it has metal back
