Fossil Men’s Digital Touchscreen Gen – Great Grey fossel smart watch 44mm 100%

Very light and thin, battery lasts a day, charges quick (~30 min). Display is very good, not very bright on auto, but visible. Everything that was important for me and i chose wear os for works. Google keep has good integration. Google maps has good integration. Google calendar + outlook have good integration. This is my first smart watch so i can not compare it to other brands/models. What i love the most is that i can see all my daily meetings at a glance as they are shown on the watch face (first – a calendar watchface – not free, but affordable. Outlook watch face is free but has bug in latest wear os version ).

I thought it as a replacement for a apple watch, but the interface is no that great. Build quality is great, the battery last for a day and a half which is improved from gen 4. But there are software glitches like wifi is getting disconnected and “ok google” is not working most of the time.

Fantastic watch for your android phone with the full range of features including heart rate, waterproof, google pay, always on option, wifi. Moving over from iphobe & apple watch 3 to pixel 4 & the fossil gen 5 has been a treat – both are quicker, more customizable and feature complete. Battery is the one limiting factor – but the quick switching of modes through the pull down menu prevents me ever running out. You will likely need to charge it nightly if you want to enable all features – not a problem for me.

Bought for husband as an early xmas present. It’s a brilliant little gadget and i have to be honest it knocks other smart watches out of the water. The only downside is to be able to use some features you need to download the paid apps for them, which is pretty annoying given that you already fork out close to £300 for the watch as it is. Be warned there is a usb lead in the box but no plug, so if you want one that’s another extra you have to pay for.

I had the black version but it was faulty on calls through the speaker. I also had the fossil sport but one of the lugs on the watch were the pins fit broke so i sent that one back. Shame because it was a great watch for the price but i think the lugs on the watch were made of nylon. Lol if ypur are left handed and want to were the watch on the ‘right hand wrist’there is an app on google play for that called ‘ lefty’ this is for people who are mainly left handed. Or want to were the watch on the right hand wrist. It turns the view of the watches face the other way around. And the three dials are facing the front of the wrist. So now you can were yoyur watch any way arouynd you like how cool is that guys. It was great for gpay and google voice but had no speaker in it. It was very light and comfertable. I ordered another one in gray’ with speaker. And i am very please to say it works great on speaker calls.

Upgraded from the gen 4, the screen is somewhat smaller and the watch is lighter. Performance wise it is much snappier which is especially noticeable when tilting to wake.

Watch is robust and looks high quality. Linking to samsung phone was straight forward with the battery averaging at one and half days. Battery life can be increased by turning off some functions, which can be done through the battery application on the watch. Overall happy with the premium look and functionality, would recommend to someone who likes a smartwatches thats look like a normal watch.

Motorola Moto 360 Sport Smartwatch – – Five Stars

The moto 360 sport is my first smart watch which i have used daily for two weeks. I had pre ordered with amazon and had a great deal with the usual high standard of posting. My main reasoning for getting this was to be able to run and listen to music without a need of a phone. As noted by another review, when i first went running the music skipped continually and the gps distance was out by nearly a km. Not the best start for my wants. Conversely, during this time i found the weight and look if he watch more and more appealing. Some of the gimmicks such as heart rate,messages,emails,what’s app and steps app being shown was beneficial. The strongest benefit being the ingenuis idea of when charging the phone it becames a sidebed clock. Unknowingly i had began to rely on the watch day to day when i had only purchased it for weekly running. After 10 days i began to have an intermittent message stating moto body had to be stopped. I was entranced by the thought of being able to tell my wa...
