A new leak regarding the next generation Motorola Moto 360 indicates the company has plans to increase the resolution of the screen to 360 by 360. This is not the first time this screen resolution has surfaced in connection with the new Moto 360. Recently, a device named “Smelt” showed up on a developer’s console with the same 360 x 360 resolution. This new resolution means the screen should look a little better and also hints that Motorola may have figured out a way to get rid of the lip on the screen.
Being able to take advantage of a full circle without a small blank space at the “bottom” of the screen would help Motorola address one of the annoyances they have dealt with regarding their round-faced smartwatch. A previous leak by Lenovo’s CEO hinted that Motorola may have figured out a way around this issue. The fact that the new resolution is a full “square” versus the current generation’s 320 x 290 “rectangular” resolution seems to support this theory that Motorola will be eliminating the blank space.
An image of a device on Weibo accompanying the claimed resolution spec, an image that one would assume is a rendering of the next Moto 360, shows the face taking up the full screen.
Thus far we have not seen any leaks concerning improvements to the rest of the hardware that make up Motorola’s entry in the smartwatch market. Based on what Lenovo’s CEO posted, the company does seem intent on making customization more accessible for the device. Such a move would be consistent with Motorola’s other devices and their Moto Maker platform to help customers make their mobile devices somewhat unique.
