    My first smartwatch, and it has exceeded expectations. I wasn't looking for anything overly complicated, and if you are, this might not be for you, but it has improved my life. Logs workouts, tracks heart rate, and prevents you from tracking down your phone for notifications that don't need immediate attention. Great value.

    Don't Buy This... Not Worth It

    Lesson learned... I read the reviews.. people were talking about the poor battery.. how it didn't track all the fitness stuff like they hoped it would, etc... But I still decided to give it a try. I wasn't that interested in any of the fitness stuff and I didn't care about notifications, texts, any of the stuff a smart watch is good for. I just wanted to upload some cool faces and have a cool looking watch. It started out ok. Everything worked pretty much as expected. At least for what I wanted it for. Had to charge the battery once per day even with me using it for so little, and only checking time a few times a day. It did keep accurate time I'll say that. Only thing that was bugging me was the face I had chosen was supposed to show current temp and brief description of weather. And it didn't really work right. Wouldn't update like it should. I tried all I could to get it to work, but nothing did the trick. So I decided to do a full reset. I'd take my time. Do everything at home where I had really good wifi connection etc.. First reset when ok but when I tried to load the face app, could not get it to load like it did the first time. After a couple days, when I had some free time, and the battery had a good charge on it I decided to try again. I'm not sure what went wrong during the reset, but it's completely messed up now. The face shows half a face of a watch face, the right half and the left half displays half of a message/tutorial screen. And I cannot get it to clear, or advance or anything. I've finally decided I'm out of luck and this is junk. I'll probably just throw it away. Do yourself a favor don't waste your money. This thing is virtually worthless. No wonder they were marked down from $275 to $100. I guess at this point I'm just out. I'm $100 poorer, but I guess I'm $100 wiser... don't be like me. Keep your money. If you really want a smart watch save until you can afford better or just do without.

    To start, this watch isnt a horrible watch by any means. Considering the other android options, you get a good bang for your buck. My only con would be the OS lags so much. As a watch and fitness tracker its just fine. Overall, an okay watch.

    I bought this watch hoping that it would be everything that I wanted. This watch would disconnect from my phone frequently and it is hard to charge. Not worth getting. You'll be better off getting a fitbit.

    Keeps disconnecting from the phone even with both literally next to each other and won’t reconnect. If you have an iPhone rather just get the Apple Watch. Does not show texts and majority of notifications. If you use android you probably will find it useful

    I got this watch during deal of the day. I am using it with Samsung phone and it works great. Google fit is great steps tracking and heart beat tracking is same like my Fitbit Versa 2. While watch hardware is great but wear OS still needs work.

    It's a nice watch. I use if for receiving text messages if I can't look at my phone. I installed Google messages to be able to send messages without receiving one. It can be a little laggy at times but it is not bad, it shows the message right when it's received though. Lasts me all day on a single charge with the clock on all the time. I like that it will get updates from Google.

    If you like Wear OS as I do, there are two options: an $80 Mobvi TicWatch, or Fossil's latest Q series. The decision comes down to how much you want to use the watch. If all you want is the time, a heart monitor, and quiet phone notifications on your wrist, this is not the product for you. However, if you want to explore the full possibilities of Wear OS, this is the only watch to buy. It looks stylish, it isn't too big, the charge lasts 16 hrs of moderate use, and it packs the hardware to keep load times under 1s and process voice input for Google Assistant. This watch is the primary way I interact with my smart home and it does the job well. Essential Digital is the best face, btw. Shop for some fashion choices if you want but you'll want the sheer amount of easy data that Essential Digital puts at your fingertips.

    Got this on sale and it does everything I need in a smartwatch. I like how it tracks steps, heart rate and workouts etc. Also is waterproof. Battery is approx day and a half which really is the only negative vs. other watches, but at well less than half the price, I am happy.

    New Fossil Sport with the new 3100 processor does not provide the performance or battery life that is advertised. Watch is laggy and I physically reset it quite a bit. Unfortunately, it's one of the only Wear OS options left right now.

    Pleased so far with ease of use. Only reason I don't give it 4 stars is the weak battery life, but I knew it was wesk before I purchased, just worse than I thought. Probably lasts 24 hours with moderate use.

    I owned a Casio G-Shock watch for nearly 10 years. Thing worked like a champ through thick and thicker. Never did consider getting a new watch (I never had to). Then my friend pointed this Fossil watch out, since it was on sale. I liked the blue color, took a gamble. I wear this bad boy all the time! While exercising, showering, running erands, whatever, I wear this. I love how easy it is to use! It is so functional. Got a text? Read it off the watch! Email? Check! And I can't get over the heart rate and step monitor. It even has Google voice commands! I love it! My only complaint is the amount of apps you have to download onto your phone. WearOS for paring with the Fossil interface and Fit. I find it a bit clunky to switch around. Otherwise a perfect watch. Note: get it on sale for $99. The $275 asking price was too high for me.
