In late 2019, a lesser-known company called eBuyNow eCommerce Ltd. launched the Moto 360 (3rd Gen). For those unaware, this firm is currently the brand licensee of ‘Moto 360’. Almost two years later, this smartwatch finally gets a release in India.
The almost 2-year-old Moto 360 (3rd Gen) was listed on India’s Flipkart at the end of May. Over two months later, the smartwatch is at last available for purchase. It is priced at ₹19,990 ($270) and comes in three color options(Phantom Black, Steel Grey, Rose Gold).
The Moto 360 (3rd Gen) sports a 1.2-inch circular AMOLED display with a resolution of 390 x 390 pixels and Gorilla Glass 3 protection. The casing is made of stainless steel with either PVD coating (Steel Grey, Rose Gold) or DLC coating (Phantom Black).
It is powered by the older Qualcomm Snapdragon Wear 3100 chipset paired with 1GB RAM and 8GB internal storage. It runs Google Wear OS backed by a 355mAh battery, which takes about an hour to charge fully and is rated to last a day.
On the connectivity front, the wearable comes with Bluetooth 4.1, single-band WiFi, GNSS (GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, GALILEO), and NFC. It is compatible with devices running Android 6.0 or higher (excluding Go Edition) and iOS 12.0 or higher.
It has all the essential sensors like an accelerometer, gyroscope, barometer, ambient light sensor, and a heart rate sensor. It also has a water resistance rating of 3ATM.
Last but not least, the Moto 360 (3rd Gen) ships with a leather strap, a silicone strap, and a charging cradle.
