Motorola unveils second gen Moto 360's

Motorola's Moto 360 is the most popular Android Wear device to date , the watch , designed in a round (flat tire) design made it a instant as rival products went on a squarish design philosophy which didn't appeal well to the masses . Although Android wear is still a bit "small" in comparison , the market is expected to grow as Android Wear is slowly pushed to potential iOS users who are keen to try new hardware . Although Motorola enjoyed success with the 360 , the outdated specs and the somewhat plain design needed some drastic change and So Motorola has unveiled not one , but two Moto 360 smartwatches today
