The Motorola Moto 360, the Android Wear watch you’ve been waiting for, finally goes on sale today priced at $249.99. It will be available in two options — black with a black strap and a limited edition silver with a grey suede strap — and you’ll be able to order it directly from Motorola, through Google Play, or from Best Buy.

Judge Lucy Koh suggests the settlement should be considerably higher than the one offered by Apple and Google. They disagree.

Four tech giants, including Apple and Google, have attacked the decision of U.S. District Judge Lucy Koh for rejecting a proposed $324.5 million settlement over Silicon Valley hiring practices.

In a court filing made later on Thursday, Apple, Google, Intel and Adobe asked the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to overrule Koh’s verdict.

Koh had rejected the proposed settlement, claiming the amount was too low.

Alongside the new Moto X, Motorola today announced a successor to its hugely successful midrange Moto G. It delivers a bigger display, a faster processor, and a better camera — all while remaining as affordable as the original.

Motorola’s new Moto X is finally here — and it’s a big improvement over its predecessor. Not only does it have a larger, sharper display, but also a faster processor and better graphics, a much-improved rear-facing camera, and a gorgeous new form factor with an aluminum frame. What’s more, it won’t cost you a penny more than the original Moto X.

Verizon has started rolling out an over-the-air (OTA) update to its carrier-branded variant of HTC’s previous flagship smartphone, the One (M7). This upgrade brings a handful of new features and stability improvements, in addition to the much-anticipated Android 4.4.3 software build.
