Motorola has announced a new Golf Edition of their MOTOACTV smart watch

Motorola has announced a new Golf Edition of their MOTOACTV smart watch. The device, as you’d imagine, includes new software-based tools which will enhance your 18 holes experience. GPS tracking allows you to record where you’ve taken your shots from in each round of golf, and will also tell you approximately how far you are from several areas on the green.

You can use the app or visit the site later on to check out how you did and compare your play to the pros. The device will cost $300. Those with the original edition aren’t SOL, however, as Motorola has committed to bringing an upgrade to bring these very same features.

While it seems the current smartphone race is all about Samsung and Apple, when it comes to GPS that’s not necessarily the case. Samsung has been hit with reports of GPS issues affecting the Galaxy (although apparently there are updates to fix this) so it may not be the ideal choice for users looking for the best GPS solution.

• Sharp map detail – With its Super AMOLED display, the Droid offers sharp, crystal-clear display and high map definition. This is perfect for seeing map detail clearly, particularly at high zoom levels or viewing satellite imagery.
• Long-lasting battery – Like the HTC Titan, the Droid has one of the best batteries on the market right now. This is a valuable feature; nothing worse for a traveler than their GPS device running out of battery life partway to your destination.
• Rugged construction – Built partly with Kevlar, the Droid is literally bullet-proof, ideal for outdoor use and situations where GPS is being used in demanding environments.
