Hey all
Lets take another look at the LG G Watch R, this time put it up against the Moto 360. Its still unsure on exactly which processor will be used in the Moto 360. There are rumors of it touting a Texas instruments chipset, but with that company bowing out of the market some time ago, the suggestion it may well run the same Snapdragon 400 chipset as the G watch R may well be true. For the purpose of this comparison, we will go with the Snapdragon 400, i will update when further info comes in:good: With both devices taking the same circular approach and similar hardware, the decision may not be so easy.

Display Size:
Just looking at the display size, the Moto 360 has the edge, with its 1.5" over the LG's 1.3"
Display ppi:
The LG has a superior resolution and a slightly smaller screen size resulting in a considerably higher ppi of ~277 PPI, over the Moto 360's ~205 pixel per inch ratio. How these numbers translate to use on a device worn on the wrist is yet to be seen, but clear winner is the LG.
Display Type:
The LG has a P-OLED display and Motorola sticking with the more traditional LCD technology. The P-OLED will result in the devices screen being far easier to read under direct sunlight, it also gives better contrast and color depth than the LCD. Winner, LG G Watch R.
Processor, RAM:
With both devices (possibly) packing the same chipset along with 512MB of RAM, this one is a draw.
Heart Rate Monitor:
Both devices feature a heart rate monitor, great for those of us who are active.
Water/Dust Resistance:
Both devices feature full IP67 certification. No worrying about your device while washing hands etc:victory:
With both devices being so close in terms of hardware, at this point its down to preference over design. The screen technology used could be the killer feature, as reading the screen in sunlight for me is a must for any smartwatch. Looking forward to hearing members thoughts on these two devices:good:
I will update this post as we get more info in:good:
