However, Motorola has break the conventional idea of square and bulking Android smartwatch with the Moto 360 – a true Android smartwatch with rounded watchface. However, Lenovo Moto has confirmed that they will not be releasing a new smartwatch next year and they has no plan for future gadgets on wearable platform, yet.
The head of global product development at Moto – Shakil Barkat stated that “Wearables do not have broad enough appeal for us to continue to build on it year after year”, according to The Verge.

We believe the wrist still has value and there will be a point where they provide value to consumers more than they do today,
– Barkat
