Motorola has yet to make an official announcement on the release date of the Moto X2 (which has also been called the Moto X+1), and Moto 360, the latest rumors surrounding the devices are that they could be launched sometime in August or September 2014.
Those dates have been touted as the company unveiled its smartwatch at the Google I/O 2014 conference, and so many expect its Mota X2 should likely follow. Analysts believe it is obvious for the company to try and release the smartwatch along with the Moto X2, as the device works as an accessory to the handset.
Recently, TK Tech news posted a supposed video clip of the Moto X2. The clip featured a device that was covered in wrapped plastic, which concealed its identity.
