Beautiful!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This watch is beautiful, I wasn’t expecting it to be so pretty. The only thing I would say is that I wish it had longer battery life. It does have a lot on it though including phone calls etc. I do wesr it at night to monitor my sleep progress too. I have no regrets getting this watch. I did buy a protector for over the screen of watch just to add a bit more protection.

More like a watch
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have used fitbit products for years and saw this while looking at upgrading. I lOVE that it is more of a look of a watch with out losing the big face. I think it is more of an adjustment because I am used to another brand. I hope that Alex feature gets more updates but I love that I can get/make calls from it.

Battery and settings annoying
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Terrible watch. The battery drains so fast that I change the display setting so that "Always on" is turned off. The watch switches the setting back without warning every single day, sometimes multiple times a day. The charger doesn't always connect well. The watch constantly disconnects from the phone and has required hard resets to fix. I've also had issues with the touch screen not working. This was not worth the money.

Beautiful but poor interface with phone.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The watch was so pretty; however, it never stayed paired with my phone. In one week, I had to factory reset and reinstalled my Samsung galaxy 6 times. The day I took it back, it didn't track my steps for that day. The watch is beautiful and easy to read; I loved everything except it wouldn't stay paired. I also didn't like the battery life running out too quickly. This was my first smartwatch, and I had a Fit Bit prior. I will purchase another watch; just not sure which one.

Best Android watch that's going to get better
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got the new Fossil watch for me and my wife. It's our first smartwatch and I've heard nothing but great reviews about the Gen 5 so we had to jump on the Gen 6. So far so good for our first watch. Definitely got to get used to small batteries on small devices. They last for about a day and a half. The main thing we use it for is texting when we can't get to our phone at work. I heard after the first of the year it's going to get the new Android operating system so I'm assuming it's only going to get better soon.

Q: QuestionWhat is the batter life?
Asked by punkinltw.
- A:Answer Depending on how many sensors you use your usage may vary. I mainly utilize the Blood Oxygen, Step Tracking, and Heart Rate Monitor and usually can go a full day and even sleep with it on. It also charges up to 80% in just 30 minutes so I usually charge it first thing in the morning before I leave the house.
