⌚ Fossil Machine Hybrid Smartwatch for Men: Stainless Steel, Activity Tracking, Smartphone Notifications Review

The guy likes this watch. I was hoping I could set it up to beep every time I text him to piss him off for fun, but I haven't figured out if that's possible yet. Nice.

I wasn't expecting a perfect item but my watch already has a scratch on the glass from just a light tap on the doorknob and the skin is peeling from sweat. It's a smartwatch, so I suppose you might wear it to track certain programs that count steps, or to keep track of those things, so I didn't think a bit of sweat would cause the leather slip off the bracelet. It's decent, looks good, but doesn't have many features and isn't very durable.

I bought it for my husband. He needed a nice watch for a business suit. All the rest of him broke. I thought it was great because of the digital aspect. He wanted to know what steps he was taking. I'm having a seizure and by comparison there is only the basic information. Still works great. I don't think the steps are accurate as he gets 5000 more than me per day. I work 2 hours more than him. We're both on our feet. It doesn't break the information in the app or anything like other brands…

I bought this to replace my outdated original Moto 360 and Fitbit Charge 2. I didn't want to buy a new Android smartwatch because the processors will be updated soon (fall 2018) and I love the style of this watch. That's all I liked. The program I used on my Google Pixel to set the clock was cumbersome to say the least. I eventually set it up so that the dial would point to specific hours depending on the alarm, but the alarm rarely worked. I felt a vibration on my phone and maybe 3 minutes…

First the cons. The pedometer is too sensitive. Because of the bumpy road, I walk hundreds of steps away from the bus ride. The front cover is scratched. like some kind of plastic. It would be nice if it was aluminum oxide (sapphire), but that would probably increase the price significantly. Now about pluses. This is a very beautiful watch. I get compliments and no one will know it's a smartwatch until I show them. The rest of the functions work fine. I was particularly impressed by the sleep…

I have owned this watch for about a few months. It worked great for the first few months, the app was a bit clunky, but it was useful for tracking my steps, adjusting my phone's volume while listening to music, and keeping track of time. I also liked the look. However, about a month ago they did a much-needed app update and all activity logging stopped. The app no longer interacts with the watch. The buttons still work to adjust volume or stop music, but the app doesn't collect any data from…

The watch looks very nice but has limited smartwatch capabilities. I set the smarts to do three things: 1) Ring my phone if I can't find it. 2) pause/start/skip music, 3) view past text alerts and view date. I think it's a great balance between looks and functionality. I had a $300 Samsung Frontier smartwatch that had a lot more features but needed to be charged every few days (which means you'll need to pack a branded charger if you're traveling for more than two days), was very picky and…

I consider this my "spy watch". I was new to the hybrid smartwatch concept when it became available. I wasn't sure if that meant the screen was digital, but it would display an analog clock with the ability to toggle between other views. It didn't really appeal to me. This is an analog watch face with digital components behind the scenes. It connects easily to my phone via Bluetooth and stays connected with no noticeable impact on my phone's battery life. You don't have to edit the time…
