Not that long ago a set of details made their way out that Motorola had some new Moto 360 offerings on the way. Today the company makes the news official by announcing new metals, new interchangeable bands, and enhanced user experiences.
First up is the new metal band offerings. The new option gives you the choice of the light or dark band that is made from aircraft-grade stainless steel with a tri-link design. The new metal band attached Moto 360 will set you back $299 in either color. Motorola will also be offering a new slim band line that will be available in holidays in Light Metal and Champagne Gold. The Champagne Gold will be slightly more expensive at $329. The slim bands are 18MM where as the new standard meta bands are 23mm.
If you already have a Moto 360, then you won’t need the whole watch. Motorola will soon be offering interchangeable stone, black and cognac leather bands for individual purchase along with the light and dark metal offerings above. They have also partnered with DODOCase who will bring a stitched leather band in 4 colors as well as a set of colorful silicone bands headed out from TYLT.
Beyond physical hardware additions, there will be an update to the Moto Connect app coming shortly as well. The update will bring in the watchface design face-off winner, David Pascual, watchface to your device (pictured above). It will also bring a slew of new watchfaces to pick from and the ability to create your own in the new My Design watch face options. You can customize everything from the background image to the style of tick marks and watch hands.
Also in the Moto Connect update there will be a new Moto Body experience that will track your steps, distance, heart rate and calories. Based on the data collected the app will provide new goals for you to help keep you motivated all day, everyday.
