OK, it's a little tough to defend the form factor, especially when the gorgeous Huawei Watch 2 has a seamless,
circular display without the maligned flat tire found on the Moto 360.

The long and short of the flat tire thing is that it's there to house an ambient light sensor, something I could have done
without to get a fully -
circular display, and really at this price point from this brand it should be fully -
circular.
Samsung uses an ambient light sensor to adjust brightness depending on surroundings,
without the «flat tire» effect that cuts off the Moto 360's
circular display in a horizontal line at the bottom.
