Review on Silicone Touchscreen Smartwatch - Fossil Sport by Jose Ortega

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The watch does not do its job

This watch is totally unable to do a simple job that a watch should do - TELL THE TIME! This watch is so sluggish/slow/unresponsive without apps installed that it becomes unusable unless you have the patience to play with your watch and look like a dummy trying to get it to tell the time . If you tilt the watch up, you have to wait for the display to turn on to check the time. The voice assistant is just terrible. You have to wait a few seconds for it to initialize before you can speak, and unless you're in a recording studio it won't understand you. I have no idea why this watch has the word "Sport" in its name as it is far from a sports watch. I can't even count the number of times this watch has reset due to accidental button presses while lifting weights or playing golf. The strap was also very large. Normally I would be right in the middle of all the holes provided, but on this one I had to use the first one. Did I mention how terrible the battery life is? If this is supposed to be the best Wear OS watch available right now, then Google has big problems with this ecosystem. This is absolute rubbish. Purchasing this watch was very enlightening. I realized it was just a trick. I don't really need my texts or emails to appear on my wrist. I don't need to talk to my watch assistant, I don't even use it on my phone. My wrist doesn't have to vibrate every time my phone gets a notification. This watch made my life difficult. Back to wearing my Breitling watch. I don't have to worry about top-ups, entering PINs, clearing notification jams, updating the system, or becoming obsolete after a year.

Pros
  • Men's
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
