The Moto 360 Sport gets an official launch date for the US, UK, and France
The Motorola Moto 360 2015 became officially available for purchase back in September, but Motorola was mum on availability of the Moto 360 Sport model, a variant geared toward those with more active lifestyles. They did mention that availability would be announced in the coming months and after 3 months we finally have a date.
The Motorola Moto 360 Sport release date has now been set for January 7th in the US (Motorola.com and “select” retailers), with Best Buy getting stock on the 10th. Prospective buyers in the UK and France get it even sooner than that, with the Moto 360 Sport going on sale this December 18th, just in time for the holidays.
The new Sport model will be priced at $300 for either black, white, or orange models, and includes fitness-centric features like build-in GPS and a hybrid “AnyLight” display that makes direct sunlight viewing much easier.
Designed for sport. Built to last: Push yourself to the limit without worrying about your watch. Strong silicone construction doesn’t absorb sweat and resists fading or staining, while side ventilation channels help you stay cool.
Built-in GPS keeps you going: Moto 360 Sport has built-in GPS that works seamlessly with Moto Body to measure your performance. Track your distance traveled, pace, lap times and more. There’s no need to carry your phone to know exactly how you’re doing.
Brilliant, indoors and out: Motorola AnyLight is the world’s first hybrid display that lets you see things clearly both indoors and out. Indoors, it works like any beautiful LCD screen. Step outside and it reflects natural sunlight, making the screen easy to read.
