Smartwatches are all the rave nowadays. Several tech brands have released their own versions including giants Apple and Motorola. The latest ones in their smartwatch product lines are the Apple Watch 2 and the Moto 360 2. But which of the two should people go for?
The Apple Watch 2 isn't out yet but several details have already surfaced giving fans a head start with what's to come with it. According to Alphr, the design of the second generation Apple will not have so many changes. But the source did say that it will be slightly thinner. The smartwatch is also designed to be more suitable for outdoor activities and sports and Apple is planning to do this by increasing its waterproof standard from IP67 to IPX7 rating.
