Not good for text or phone notifications

After a few hours with their support chat bot, the watch doesn't notify me of incoming text messages or calls. They sent an email with a list of things to check. Half of these were not included in the original installation instructions. Return the item as is. Clock counting steps.

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Reliability

Attention buyers Watch

The sleep count isn't even remotely accurate. The pedometer is off. Sometimes he doesn't write anything. I paid 175 for this junk and now they are selling it for 95. Hmmm. Thanks for nothing fossil. People are careful. The date is also incorrect, putting "hands" between the digits for the date. For example, on the 18th he will place his hands between the 17th and 18th.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • I'm worried

Clean and Simple Best in Men

This was a birthday present for my husband. His old Fossil watch was fully sensory, with all the bells and whistles he never used. He used to really struggle with his old watch just to get time to show up. This clock is much cleaner. It's more of an analogue with a few fun features. He enjoys a little feast made by his hands, circling them around his face when he reaches his goal! haha!

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Old

Never buy fossils again

Have you always wanted an expensive decoration for your aquarium? Well, because the only thing this watch does is tell the time. Be inspired by the misleading feature, you don't see any notifications let alone how many steps you take. The company then goes one step further and wants their customer service to forget your expectations the moment you make contact. I followed all the instructions and just today, 4 months after starting the repair of the watch, I received it back as broken as…

Pros
  • Like everyone else
Cons
  • Suitable

good enough. for smartwatches

looks good and fits the wrist well, heavy but not too heavy. application for this purpose. The vibration function isn't great (I can hardly feel it unless the configuration is set to maximum, which will decrease battery life). The "Notifications" feature is acceptable but pointless, as you can easily assign a ringtone to different contacts to identify them, and since you have to be close to your phone to get connected, it doesn't make much sense . The same happens with some apps like WhatsApp…

Pros
  • only positive
Cons
  • poorly thought out
