It seems like everyone is afraid of Apple’s new smart watch. Moto 360 has an incredible price drop – you can buy it for about $165!

Google’s device store puts the Moto 360 at $165 with a leather strap, and that’s $85 off from the original price of $250 – the wrist wear device is just several months old.

If you manage to run late to the party don’t worry because Amazon and Best Buy are also selling the Android Wear device, but at a higher price – $180.

It’s probably a hint that Motorola wants to clean out its current stock of smart watches to prepare for the sequel.

The Moto 360 was officially launched on September the 5th of 2014, and it was seen as the best Android Wear device at the time – although that isn’t saying much. It sports a beautiful design that is fully customizable, it’s not clunky on the wrist, and it even has wireless charging but that’s jut about it. It only comes in large size, and those of us who have petite arms will just look goofy trying to wear the device. The battery life is terrible – 10 to 12 hours and you need to recharge it.

It doesn’t have a ton of features, and you’ll mostly play with them in the first day or so before getting bored and completely forget about its functions. I mostly used it for notifications and time keeping – I used to give it voice commands, but after my first week I wouldn’t be bothered to do such thing.

Yes, the heart sensor and pedometer are a nice touch, but it’s novelty soon diminishes and you are just left with a normal watch that also pairs your phones notifications.

The Moto 360 is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass. It doesn’t only protect it from scratches, but also if you somehow drop the watch, or bump into something, it won’t shatter into millions of small pieces.

For $165 is quite a bargain, and if you have that amount of cash just laying around, I recommend you go for it. It’s a new piece of technology and it’s cool as hell. You’ll be amongst the few who support this new pioneering gadget!
