I love the watch itself... a big draw back is the quality of the calls through the watch. Very hard to hear and sometimes the other person can not make out what i am saying.

The reason for 3 stars is because I did like the look of the fossil, it is water resistant and it did have some nice "smart" feature.
However, I had an Apple Watch series 2 before and I do like the apple better.
1st con: this watch doesn't last long on battery. I had to recharge it everyday after each use. The apple could last me 2 days even linked to my phone.
2nd: I really did prefer the smart feature of the Apple Watch compared to the fossil when it was linked to my iPhone such as the linked app, iMessage,....
For example, on my Apple Watch I could read and respond to my iMessages (with short answers of course). On the fossil, you can only read.
Also, with the Apple Watch, it would vibrate and show me when I received a message. On the fossil, I always had to go to the main menu.
So after those couple of drawbacks I returned the fossil and got me a new Apple Watch (first one was lost so that's why I tried fossil. If I had money, I would have kept the fossil and keep it during outdoor activities, yard work and breaks in the pool; but unfortunately it was either apple or fossil so I went back to apple!

So far, the watch seems to do what it is advertised to do. Having never had a smart watch before, I am still learning the features. It is nice to get calendar/email/text notices without digging my phone out of my backpack. So far, so good. I hope I can learn how to maximize the usefulness of its features.

The Fossil Q Marshall smart watch is a great value for the price. Good functionality and battery life. Battery life shrink if all connectivity and other features are enabled.

Overall it's a good smart watch compare to expensive one. Easily connect to Phone. Material is good. It looks good to hand. But the only issue I face is to charge to watch everyday. So, I would suggest whenever you are not using it's bluetooth functionly then just disconnect and use and it would last for 2 days. Overall I would suggest to buy this product.

Love the looks of the watch unfortunately the compatibility with IOS is limited compared with Android watches. I wish Apple would come out with a watch that looks like this. Watch face was off center as well which really bothered me; I’m sure a replacement would have corrected that. If you have an Android phone take a serious look at the Fossil Q Marshal line.

I love the look of this watch and all of its android features but my only vice is that it has a very short battery life. I have to recharge the watch every day, whereas my Samsung Gear lasts me at least 3-4 days on one charge.

This is a very good looking smart watch. It had been on my watch list for quite sometime, and once I saw that it had gone on sale, I knew I had to pick it up. For $150, it's a great watch. Does everything my pebble smartwatch could do,plus more. It also looks more mature, so I don't feel nearly as childish wearing it as I did my pebble.

This watch is great. It's very stylish, and functions great as a smart watch. A will say that the battery seems to die a bit quickly in comparison to competition such as the Samsung, it only last about a day or so, with moderate usage. If you use it like a regular watch, it can last upwards of 2 days.

First appearances, the device looks really good. I bought this as a gift to my son who wanted one. It is supposed to link up with a Google Pixel phone. We will see how it does. Haven't done it yet because it is a Christmas gift. Was able to buy it at a really good price.

I bought this smartwatch knowing what I was looking for and could not be happier with it! I wanted my Android Wear to look like a regular watch and Fossil nailed it. No heart rate monitor for the fitness minded but I needed a second screen for notifications and quick responses at work. Now I leave my phone on the charger and I don't miss a beat. If I could add one thing, it would be NFC payments. Otherwise I'm very happy with this purchase!

Watch works well. Vibrates and rings loud enough to hear. I like it as caller ID works great. It's a little sensitive to movement and the dial knob likes move things on the screen

Bought this for my Galaxy 8+. Pairing was easy and quick. Need to be patient to get comfortable the functions it has to offer. Simple fitness monitor and great for folks on the go. When I'm at work, no need to carry my phone. Roam around the office, I receive all of my notifications on time (skype/alters/emails/missed calls). Comfortable band as well.
