Body design and Display: Motorola Moto 360 Sport

Motorola Moto 360 Sport, as the name suggests it has a more sport look apart the previous Moto 360 versions. They don’t provide any changeable bands, so you need to choose your best colour among Black, Orange and white colour bands. Among three colour bands, Orange seems to be funky and gives a better sports look, while black and white give the same decent look as the older versions. The band provided is made of a smooth and flexible material causing no irritation for longer use. The air vents in the middle of the band are good enough to wear the watch comfortably. You can barely feel the watch on your watch because of its design and material used. The only disadvantage of this material is that it attracts some dust on it, just some not more.
