    I got it at a special price (99). I've been doing a lot of research for a great smartwatch for a long time and find this and love it. NFC, keyboard to reply, wearOS are some features you won't get for this price. Battery life and a speaker would have make this incredible but for this price I don't complaint it. For anybody with the same issue, I wasn't able to connect to WiFi to update, as soon as I went back in the menu it would disconnect, just turn off you phone Bluetooth and that forces the watch to connect to WIFI, after updating the issue will correct. It comes with the charger BTW

    For $100, you can't go wrong with this Android Wear watch. While I wish it had a little more RAM, it ticks all the other boxes. I'm pretty hard on watches, & while at 1st I was a little worried about the ruggedness, I've been pleasantly surprised. It's taken a pretty good beating & no worse for wear.

    it was $99 when I bought it. That right already makes it a good buy. Good wear os watch. The battery lasts for about a day and a half, not too good but then again with that price tag, there is not much to complain about.

    So I read A LOT of the reviews on this watch before buying this watch. I have used a MOTO 360 way back. I was switching back to Google from Apple, and going from an Apple watch to the Fossil watch. First off, this isnt going to be just like an apple watch, but it is pretty great! So I take my watch off the charger at 4:30am, wear it to the gym, and then after that I wear it all day till I go to bed at night. I charge it every night. But by the end of the day the battery is usually at 40ish %. When you first start this watch up, Let it charge, let it do ALL the software updates...give it a few days to adjust and set itself up and you wont have any issues. I had lag and some slowness in the beginning, now it runs very smooth. The other thing that makes a big difference is that it runs better connected to my Pixel versus the iPhone XR. Google fit could be better for tracking weight lifting, and swimming, but aside from that not bad. I can respond to messages by voice or keyboard, answer or ignore calls, read a full email, and much more! AND at $99, this watch is a steal. In my opinion I am sure the sport 2 is getting ready to come out. BUT THIS IS WORTH BUYING!

    I bought this watch for Google pay and viper smartstart remote app. Moves a little slow compared to my galaxy S3 but I am happy with the options I needed. Very light watch. Good for a fitness watch. I like Fossil watches and I am very happy with the purchaseandprice for $99!!!

    Overall, I like the basic form and function of this watch. Just the features that I need without all of the features that I don't. The problem that prevents me from recommending this watch is that it is plagued with slow response at times. Like trying to swipe and it takes 2-3 seconds to respond. And the battery life is very poor. Even barely using it and turning off every feature that I could, don't expect anywhere close to a full day on a charge. Turn your head and it goes from 100% down to 80%. You end up feeling like you can't even use it out of fear of draining the battery before lunch!

    Got this fossil sport on sale/clearance and so far it’s well worth it. I like the customization vs the Apple Watch and still has fitness benefits like pedometer and heart rate monitor. Battery life isn’t fantastic as it lasts a little more than a day in a full charge.

    I purchased the Fossil Sport Smartwatch to go with an LG smart phone that I've been using. It was relatively easy to set up. Although it's 43mm, I do find the fonts a bit small to read. However I got it at a very reasonable price and I don't regret buying it.

    Fossil-Sport Smartwatch 43mm Aluminum-Black with Black Silicone Band. Its a average kind of smartwatch its a little bit slow but not that bad. I use it when I jog and it does the job and the watch looks cool and sleek.

    I bought this watch for my husband for Father's Day. He was really happily surprised and has worn it every day since. The only problem has been the battery life- my husband charges it every night but sometimes it runs out before the end of the day.

    This smartwatch is very easy to use. It has quite a lot of feature which a smartphone has. This smartwatch is not costly. So, I would say it is worth the money.

    Had all the features I wanted and went on sale. Battery life is enough to get thru the day. Would prefer a little better battery life, but still hits all I wanted from a smartwatch

    Fine watch, but looked cheap

    The Fossil Sport was a nice watch when I bought it. Nice screen, but the gray, plasticky bezel made it look a little cheap. It was prone to scratches and dents as well. The fossil watch band was high quality and did not attract lint like other silicone bands. Wear OS at the time was not the best OS, but this watch was able to track my push up count! I ultimately switched Samsung Active 2 watch, and although newer, it was not able to detect my pushup reps.

    I ended up going back to my Fitbit. If you're wanting it for a watch then this may be for you. If you're looking for something for working out, look towards the Fitbit. One of my main issue was that I would put it on the charger at night and find it dead it the morning. The issue is that if it is not on the charger just right it will not charge. Between that and the poor battery life, I found myself preferring a Fitbit sports band.

    I really like this watch. The only downside is the battery life is pretty bad. It will die completely if I try to track a hike. Better used for going on a shorter run.

    Cool smart watch. Looks great, lightweight, and lots of cool features. Could have used a faster chip, battery life isn't great. But for the price, tough to beat.

    This Watch is great coming from a non smart watch maker. This Watch is great for its price. Works better within android ecosystem. But gets the job and look of a good watch.
