Moto 360: A smart watch that actually looks like a watch

The Moto 360 is a smart watch running Google’s newly announced Android Wear. Best way to describe it would probably be Google Now on your wrist. But anyway, this is probably the nicest looking smart watch I’ve seen, and one that actually looks like something people might want. According to the website it’s slated to be released this summer, probably along with the new Moto X?

Moto G

Just about a week ago, I finally caved and bought the Moto G. While the circumstances that led to me getting the Moto G was pretty abrupt, I did not regret my decision at all. After all, this is a device I have been eagerly waiting to be released locally ever since its announcement.

This is the what you see on your Windows Phone 8 device lockscreen when music is playing. Basically, it’s a small black portion of the top (with volume level, controls, artist name, and song title) over whatever you have set as your wallpaper.

Then lets look at what iOS and Android is doing.

[Night/Lowlight] Photos Taken with a Nokia Lumia 1520

I’ll start off with 2 shots taken with Nokia Pro Cam app on all auto settings. As usual with most cameras’ auto settings, it opted for a higher ISO to allow for a faster shutter speed. Meaning less blurry shots due to slight hand movements. Let’s face it, most would prefer a slightly grainy/noisy shot over a blurry shot.

Cheap and Cheerful

Jeremy Clarkson once said and I quote, "There’s no such thing as cheap and cheerful. It’s cheap and nasty & expensive and cheerful." Granted he was talking about cars, but I think the same can be applied for smartphones. Can a smartphone be both “cheap and cheerful” at the same time? Motorola is certainly going to try.

Nexus 5 vs Moto X

Those who know me would probably know that I am a huge fan of the Nexus range of devices. Hell, my current daily driver is a Nexus 4. I prefer Vanilla Android look and feel, or Android as Google intended. Any Android devices that I use that is not a Nexus, runs either CyanogenMod, or Nova Launcher.
