Moto 360 Design Face-Off rules suggests Moto 360 will cost $249 USD

A few days ago, it was suggested that the price of Motorola’s highly anticipated Android Wear smart watch, the Moto 360, is going to cost €249 in Europe, though that hasn’t really given us a good indication of what it will cost in other regions given the disparity in electronics pricing. Thankfully though, it seems Motorola may have let the cat out of the bag after launching its Moto 360 Design Face-Off competition, which states that the prize, a brand new Moto 360, will have a retail price of $249 USD. The competition centres around the new Moto 360 and offers artists the opportunity to decorate their own Moto 360 template as they see fit for the opportunity to win the elusive smart watch.
Motorola has gone on record since going live with the Face-Off competition, saying that the $249 price has been quoted for ‘tax purposes only and should not be interpreted as the suggested retail price’, though that seems a lot like official mumbo-jumbo designed to throw us off the scent. Whatever the truth is, we’re expecting to see more of the wearable device at Google I/O next month so we won’t have long to wait to find out.
