    The Venture looks fantastic. You'll immediately be drawn to it's refined styling, comfortable feel and premium build quality. Unfortunately the battery life is terrible. It'll last 5-7 hours off of a full charge if you're lucky. There's no power saving mode to fall back on. It just dies...alot.

    I bought it as a birthday gift to my wife. She is using android devices and we cant find a good smart watch for her until now. Watch is small and elegant enough for her and screen ha good size for every wear os app. Also battery life is enough for a day usae.

    I love it... Fossil brand is great... And does everything the fact that it shows your text messages and you can answer them right there.. For a single mom and be able to have contact with babysitter without having your phone... To do so...

    Purchasing the Fossil smartwatch was a definitely a great choice! It was very easy to set up and it performs well with my Google Pixel 3XL phone. I bought this smartwatch for my wife and she truly enjoys how it works.
