#FossilGen6 #SmartwatchReview #WearOS - Věda a technologie
Hey,
I just got mine yesterday.
And there's an update where you don't pair with WearOs app but with the Fossil App.
I noticed that the gestures are gone, swipe to the left side doesn't have that Google assistant anymore, no Google fit, etc.
Could you do a review and guide through these new things???
Is the Fossil Generation 6 Smartwatch available in black ion-plated, stainless steel version?
I have a gen 5. Battery longevity and google fit are the two reason I will not be upgrading to the 6. At first with aod on and lift to wake off I got 17 hours of battery life. 3 years later it's down to 4. Also Google fit is unacceptable, they really need to get with the times.
Love it but, how do I upgrade to color..
I miss the original ui but not the laggyness I used to get, but the crown on my watch doesn't want to work the scrolling works but not the button to go to all apps and the home screen =/
Sounds like a warranty
Bro plz tell me its refresh rate
What factory version of Wear OS does the FOSSIL GEN 6?
I believe it is now the WEAR OS 3 UI
I use the it along with my IPhone 13 Pro Max.
Wear OS app is not compatible after the watch is updated to Wear OS 3. It connects only with Fossil Smartwatch app, which I am not happy with.
Have not seen options for Map and Wallet. Not sure if it’s an iOS thing.
Is it better than the Fitbit sense 2
How is the app support on iPhone nd can we talk from watch when linked with iPhone
@@balaram26 we can talk into the watch. I didn’t get the first part of your question
@@ShijoKJoseph-xx5xh I mean can we install watch os apps in the watch even when paired with iPhone?
You’re right, I cannot use the google wallet
Hello, thank you for your review. So the watch runs well 3.0 and google assistant works well without having to side load or anything correct?
No, from what I understand it uses Alexa, not Google assistant
No. It's running Google Assistant again. They fixed it!🎉
It's runs both. Geez
Absolutely right. Using it for more than a year now and its just a stylish watch where you can only connect for emergency calls and to read messages without looking at your phone. That’s all it. Others are not so accurate even the steps doesn’t even count sometimes. If you want something accurate and techy, this watch is not fornyou, but if you just want a stylish and you only need is phone calls and read txt msgs then this might work. The battery only last for a day and you have to charge it before the end of the day if you want to use it again. It could last for 2days if you turn off everything and keep the display off
Two days when screen is off? I dont get 2 days out of it and always on screen is off. I guess my battery is not good anymore
thanks for this, I was just about to pull the trigger and try to upgrade my tozo s2 but I'm not too keen on having to charge it everyday. I need a watch that tracks my sleeping, steps, and bpm 24/7 all while looking as stylish as a traditional watch. oh well guess I'll keep looking.
not sure if you're still looking, but I just got my withings scanwatch yesterday and honestly it fits the criteria's you mentioned. It's stylish and as close to a traditional watch as you can get, all while being able to track your steps, sleeping and bpm 24/7 as this watch can probably get you through 30 days. It's still early days for me but I've looked around countlessly before making the decision so I'm hoping this is as good as I'm hoping it to be.
@@Moyuukii did you end up liking it? Would you recommend it after using it for awhile
Getting this watch this week after 2 months of saving to cop it used for 92 gbp. Thanks for the video!
2 months of savings for 100$?
@@leodoingthings1706gen 6 is 300 ig
Wear os 3 is on on the smartwatch I have the same watch
Wish they'd release the gen 7 already...i want a nice looking watch to go with my new iphone 15 that can also track some fitness stuff.
Fossil Android watches are dead. They killed off the series.
How it is compatibile with apple
When will the wear os 4 update available on fossil gen 6????
it wont. They're discontinuing the series.
Will it keep track of your heart rate and distance without your phone nearby?
I bought one today. After updating the OS, my watch flashed starting. I'm a bit frustrated it does the same on my son's watch. I bought 2 today, and it does the same.
What do you mean?
As a Division fan, I am getting this
Is it compatible with ios ?
Ill buy it
Aaa a man of culture you are. 2:40
Prise
it looks like my gen 5. my batt life still sucks?? omg. all i want is a batt life that last for a week
If you find anything like that please tag me! I have the Gen 5 too. I think it looks great but good lord the battery kills me.
regretted buying this. google assistant is not available after wear os update, notifications always not functioning. poor coordination with phone and lack fo useful functions
Google Assistant is back! That's why I left my Pixel Watch and back to my Fossil Gen 6 🎉❤
how well does it work with Apple phones? Do you have all features? Also, the video makes the picture looked washed out. Is that true in real life?
Why would you want this if you have an iPhone? The Apple Watch will give you 100x more functionality with your watch and will generally be a better overall experience.
@@cw2002 because I don’t like the Apple Watch. what I want is to use my galaxy watch 5 with my iPhone as it has 100x more functionality than the Apple Watch but I cant
@@cw2002apple watch looks dorky
@@cw2002apple watches aren’t so stylish like the fossils they have a more elegant look
"22 m m." Please just say millimetre.
I thought that!
Every time they said it, I had to really focus on their voice to see if was text-to-speech
*millimeter
@@Konvinced89 Maybe they're one of the dozen or so people who doesn't live in the US.
We spell it millimetre in the UK.
Same goes for A.M.O.L.E.D
@@Thefan I know, I thought it would be funny to correct the spelling to American since the US still generally uses SAE
Why did I need to watch this first?
Does it have a keyboard to reply messages?
Yes.
I was under the impression Google Assistant is no longer on the watch
It isn't, only reason I'm sticking to the gen 5,
He's back!🎉
24 hour battery life on modern smart watch is a joke
first
Too bad battery is still just 24h at best, when these have at least 3 days then I'll consider it, thank you for the review.
If I might where did you get those hexagonal tiles used on your desk/b-roll shots
Can it go upto one nd half days with single charge? I won’t b using wifi,nfc,nd few others mostly
battery life is so so sucks :/
they allow google yet? i not update for this reason! I have Alexa at home, but not in car or phone. have not updated because of this fact, Alexa not on my watch!
update 8 2023, google assiant works, thanks you the infor... problem the watch now has alarms i ca n set... but none of my alarms on my smart phone sound off on my smart watch anymore, why?
also I hears fossil is getting out of the smart watch bussiness? hear this August
is there a fourm for Gen watches?
I think he said that to be fair
Yes, Google Assistant works again
@@shotbymarlozan yeah thanks for the reply I appreciate it. Are you updated my phone to the new Google Gen 6 software. And I've been enjoying my Google assist on my phone. Like I said I've been without it for a year using the old Gen 6 software. Thanks for assuring me have a good day
@@ChrisPrieto Yeah bro! I am using my FG6 again. My GPW is in my desk drawer. Haptics feels a little better on the GPW, but it's not a big deal! I hope Fossil launches the FG7. Although Google is the owner of the smartwatch division of Fossil!🤷🏽♂️
Is it worth buying now?@@shotbymarlozan
Can you send text messages on this watch?
Do not buy Fossil smart watches, it is a waste of money, as it is the worst smart watch in the world. And don't get help from the company!!!!
He said it’s one of the most popular in the world 🤔 which watch do you recommend?
But, why? I'm still using my Gen 4 to this day, and still happy with it
But why? I'm still using my Gen 4 to this day and I'm still happy with it
