Review on Fossil Gen 5 Julianna Stainless Steel Smartwatch – Touchscreen 🌟 with Speaker, Heart Rate Monitor, GPS, Contactless Payments, and Smartphone Notifications by Chris Elam

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Chic, trendy and full of technology!

This watch looks nice, more like a classic watch than a tech watch, but it's packed with features - this is for the true techie, not for those just looking for a fitness tracker. It'll take you some time to figure out just what this watch can do, as it's essentially a computer on your wrist. The face is big enough that I could even type a short message in a pinch. Easy integration with Gmail/other Google apps. I love the many watch face options and the great power saving features. The strap is comfortable and fairly easy to adjust once you get the hang of it (not an intuitive design I'd say, but a quick google figured it out). I'd say it's a big watch, not a petite one - I don't think I'd want to sleep with it (which is a shame as it can track sleep). Too bad there wasn't a smaller and lighter version for women. The screen is really bright and sharp, maybe sharper than my year old iPhone. If you don't like touchscreens or have trouble with them, there are a couple of buttons on the side that control some of the functions, which is nice so you don't rely solely on the touchscreen. Can't believe it's waterproof either. It looks tempting to take somewhere near the pool or beach, but I still love the feature when I accidentally jump in the shower (or get pushed into the pool?). The speaker is also surprisingly loud and clear - I don't jog. I like it, but I find it handy to be able to control music from my wrist. Overall - if you want a fitness tracker primarily then this is overkill. If you want a beautiful watch that can also do 75% of what your smartphone can do, then go for it!
