Fossil watches finally come of age
||Posted .Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.I choose this particular style because it looked a bit more "dressy" than the others. My previous watch was a Samsung 42mm model, and since I have small wrists, I was hoping to find another 42mm watch, but none of the Fossils I saw were -- they were all 44mm. I am happy to say that the difference is far less dramatic than going from 42mm to 46mm (see photos). Still a hair bigger than I'd like, but I'll adjust. Performance-wise, it works fine. The heart rate monitor and step counter seem accurate. I do miss the rotating bezel of the Samsung, and the dollar-store version on this watch (the middle rotating dial) will probably never get used. I'm still getting used to the differences between Tizen and WearOS -- Tizen seems a bit cleaner, while WearOS seems to want to throw too much at you. Again, I'll adjust, it's not a big deal, just different. Build-wise, it feels more like a real watch and less like a gadget like my old Samsung. Still getting used to the heft, but that will come with time. Battery life seems on par with the Samsung. It was initially draining quicker than I expected, so I turned off wi-fi (no need for it), and the difference was pretty dramatic. Since then it lasts me from morning to night. But if you intend to leave wifi enabled, you may find it doesn't last as long. So yeah, these Fossil watches have grown up since their earlier attempts, and I'd recommend it. If I had a gripe, it's that I think it's a bit overpriced.

Meh...
||Posted .Owned for 1 week when reviewed.I was looking for a dressier alternative to my Apple Watch. I hate its square face, and it doesn’t matter what band you add to it, it’s just not an attractive watch. I had fossil watches in college and loved them, I liked having a decent looking watch to wear when I wore a suit...so I purchased this watch. You’d figure after all this time that wearables have been in the market that Android Wear would be solid to that of Apple...no where close. It’s quite disappointing the disparity between the two. I find the UI/UX on the watch very clunky and unrefined. There are conflicts with my Bluetooth link up in my car when ever I wear this watch. The battery life of this is a joke. I’m lucky if I can get a full day out of the battery. I bought a second charger for work. I can get 2 days out of my Apple Watch series 4. Also the face does not stay lit long enough when I raise my are to read the time Google assistant doesn’t work. It could be that I am using an Apple phone. Not sure. This watch’s only saving grace is its ability to customize the watch face, which is a HUGE gripe of mine with the Apple Watch. I actually dropped 30 bucks on the Facer app, because I can push out awesome watch faces from the app. They are truly beautiful, and kept me from returning the watch after day one. This watch isn’t for the faint of heart. If you can get past it’s shortcoming, it’s Ok. Sadly, this watch is Gen 5 and received rave reviews...it may work great with a pixel or Samsung. Not so much with iOS.

What experts are saying
Q: QuestionDoes it answer phone calls?? Does ut have gps? Can u send msg from the watch?
Asked by Lui.
- A:Answer It answers phone calls (you can in fact choose a couple options of answering from watch and picking up the call from your phone or answering from your watch and picking up the call over your watch as well). It does have GPS, and you can download the Google Maps application for directions just like you would on your phone. Lastly, you can send messages from the watch freely likely you would from your phone (I have a Google Pixel 4 XL, and I have my android messages application sync'd up with the watch to allow for this - very nice and very impressed by it)

Q: QuestionI am just starting to look at smartwatches and this caught my eye. I have a Samsung android smartphone and I would like to be able to download my iTunes library from my computer or ipod to it. Is this possible? Then can I sync it to my wireless beats?
Asked by LWcl.
- A:Answer The most difficult part you will run into is getting your iTunes library to work with Android at all. I recommend looking into Google Play Music app and trying to import your library into that app (it should be possible). You can then download the library from the app onto your devices for offline listening. If you can get the music onto your Samsung, then you should be able to get it on your watch. I have this watch with an Android phone and really enjoy it!!
