Lenovo CEO Yang Yuanquing has confirmed that several new Motorola devices are on the way, including a new flagship phone and smartwatch. 

The phone in question is most likely the third generation Moto X, but very little is known about this device at this point. It’s rumoured to feature a 5.2-inch QHD display, but that’s about it.

In addition to new phones, Motorola plans to launch a new smartwatch. The company pioneered the concept of a round smartwatch with the Moto 360, but in the meantime it has been overtaken by LG, which already has two round smartwatches, and Huawei, which is due to start shipping its own round smartwatch soon.

The original Moto 360 features an antiquated OMAP 3 processor and panel with a cut out at the bottom, which houses a couple of sensors. There is clearly a lot of room for improvement. Most of all, we would like to see Motorola replicate its Moto Maker approach on the new smartwatch.
