- July 25, 2011

honestly praising moto 360 on internet. after seeing in person @ college, , other reviews, looks plain round block of aluminum. don't me wrong screen beautiful when off , looking @ distance. once body, doesn't grow on you.

first experience (pictures). kept taking quick 5 sec glances on each , noted did.

watch design:
@ first glance forces analyze whole watch. @ screen, curved bezel, digital crown, band insert. makes me want keep looking @ , examine it, , do, keeps growing on me because has cool little designs. same picture , every angle picture at. whole watch screams fluent , seamless design me. there no noticeable bezels, 1 nice curve that's top of curved screen polished curved stainless steel bottom. watch os nice eye candy. love transparency overlays!

moto 360 design:
@ first glance attention on screen. looks cool since circular. notice content cut off , distorted on bottom. @ bezel looks cumbersome total of 4 chamfered edges including glass. side view looks unfinished, boring, , thick. 3 different company's worked on it. 1 aluminum body, 1 lcd/cover glass, , 1 bands slapped together!

conclusion:
moto 360 @ glance far away , looking @ screen looks cool. after quick inspection lowers expectation , grow hate more , more. more prototype since not seamless design. simple , boring nothing screams different. but still beautiful watch compared other android wear watches, don't me wrong. watch makes me want keep starring @ , keeps growing on me , i'm loving more every time see it.
