Motorola has officially unveiled the Moto Watch 100. The new Moto Watch 100 runs on a brand new and homegrown operating system, the Moto OS, and is kitted with several impressive features including a battery that could last up to two weeks. The Watch 100 has not escaped the tipster’s gaze and some details were released about the smart wearable only a few days back. The brand new Moto OS is linked directly to the significant improvement in battery life of the Moto Watch 100 from its predecessor, the Moto 360.

The Moto Watch in-house software development team had put in a lot to develop the Moto OS which puts it higher in some respects than the Wear OS. The Moto Watch 100 has a 1.3-inch circular LCD that seems not to be in tandem with other aspects of the device. The in-thing nowadays in smart wearables is the OLED displays. There is an always-on mode in the display, as well as 26 sports modes. The Moto Watch 100 is capable of measuring the blood oxygen levels (SPO2) and heart rate of the user. It is also fitted with a gyroscope and an accelerometer.

The Moto Watch 100 is GPS-enabled, has 5ATM water resistance capability, supports Bluetooth 5.0, and weighs just 45.8g. It has a 355mAh battery which can be fully charged within an hour when completely drained. Two-color variants are available for the Moto Watch 100 namely Glacier Silver and Phantom Black, and the watch has an aluminum case.

The Moto Watch 100 is now available for pre-order with a $99.99 price tag. The first shipments will however commence from December 10. It can be pre-ordered from the official website of eBuyNow, the brand user of the Moto Watch series.

Motorola’s impending Moto Watch 100 has been subject to many leaks in recent weeks. Last time, renderings of the smartwatch appeared, revealing its design and specifications. More renders of the smartwatch have now appeared, bringing us closer to its debut date.

The renders come from the notorious leaker evleaks which showcase the entire design of the smartwatch. The smartwatch has a circular dial with a sliver-platted ring around the dial. Notably, the older renders revealed the smartwatch with a black-coloured dial. It means that the smartwatch could debut in two colour variants.

Talking about its specifications, the Moto Watch 100 has a 1.3-inch display with a resolution of 360 x 360 pixels. The device seems to come with a rubberised strap with stripes over it. The smartwatch packs a 355mAh battery and weighs 30 grams.

Reportedly, it will come with GPS support, however, we aren’t sure if it will also come in a cellular model with support for mobile data. It is expected to have heart rate, blood oxygen level, and ambient light sensors. It will also have a sleep tracking feature. It is touted to come with Bluetooth v5.2 support.

The smartwatch is said to be a budget-centric smartwatch that will run on Google’s Wear OS and come at an affordable price. As of now, the exact launch date of the smartwatch is unknown, but, we expect the company to break the silence soon.
