I love this!!!
Rating: 5
I love this watch! From the second I saw it I fell in love! It is affordable and beautiful! It was glitching at first but once it fully updated and got set up I haven't had any issues! It works with my Android with no issues. The wear os app had a few options for the watch face but I didn't really like them. I was able to download an app on my phone that gave me access to a lot more options!

I have went from having the Apple Watch series 1 for four years and have made the switch over to this watch. I love it. I was getting so tired of the Apple Watch and the bulky square design. It was a small screen as well especially compared to this watch. I love how big and round the screen is on this one and I love the touchscreen of it!! Definitely way better than the Apple Watch. It's much cuter and dressier for work now and looks so much better with my outfits!

I had went without wearing a watch for 5 years and decided I wanted to start wearing one again. After researching and reading numerous reviews, I decided on this one. So far, I've had no problems with it. I don't have a need to use apps from the watch throughout the day, so battery life has not been an issue for me. (I was concerned about this from other reviews). It is comfortable to wear and I love the magnetic band. Classy, comfortable, and practical for my needs!

I love my fossil smartwatch!! I got the gen 4 silver mesh band with magnetic closure. Has gold around the face. So matches both my wedding sets. Still learning about the watch. I've had it 2 1/2 weeks.

Falling apart...literally
Rating: 2
I love this watch! It's gorgeous, but that's where it stops. I bought it last November and it is already falling apart. I wear it maybe 2-3x per week maximum. The backing had become unglued. Prior to this, the screen was freezing and I would have to restart it which is very annoying. I sent it in for repairs, we'll see where that goes.

FELL APART AFTER JUST 30 DAYS OF MINIMAL USE
Rating: 1
Purchased it for my wife on 12/2/2019, the back of the watch (charging plate) fell right off after less than 30 days of use. And to add insult to injury, although it is covered under warranty, one has to "request" a repair quote delaying the process of getting the watched shipped, repaired, and returned. We shall see how long this process takes. I have been recommending Fossil smartwatches since their arrival in the US, 3 of the 4 smartwatches in my family are Fossil Smartwatches...that will soon change. I should have gotten her an iWatch!

I would not buy this product, customer service is horrible.
Rating: 1
I have waited to post this review to see if my issues had been resolved. From the first day I got the watch, it would not connect with my phone. I contacted customer care to see what could be done, first of all, all responses take 24 hours, I have done a factory reset on my watch no less than 10 times. This has been a very frustrating process, now, they want me to send back my new watch for repair.

I would not buy this product and future generations
Rating: 1
Overall the apps and their connectivity is perfect. I enjoy how seamless was to connect my clock with the phone and the app and view my data. The hardware here is the problem. Who uses glue for a sport clock?? My clock fell apart in less than a year and I have been using it for 5 months everyday. They should not use glue for a clock that is supposed to be sport and that you can use to swim.

Love the Gen4 Great improvements
Rating: 5
As a Gen1 owner, this Gen4 is outstanding. The look of the watch is Fabulous and jewelry like for a smart watch. The Battery life is great, even better the charge time is way faster than any watch smart watch I currently own. Suche as my Gen1 fossile, my Iconic Fitbit, and my Applewatch Gen3. The only thing i don't like is the fact that they changed the charging method. I get it though as they added a hart monitor the physical dynamics of the watch needed to change. The hart monitor is decent as well but no match for the apple or Fitbit. Overall though I think this is a solid watch. Nice and light and lovely, especially to the eye.

I love my watch
Rating: 3
I absolutely love my watch. Its beautiful and works great. My only complaint is the lack of documentation. Of course theres the initial start up information pamphlet. But nothing that explains what all the buttons do. I had to look up online all the functions. Also there was no explanation as to how to remove links from the band. Since this watch is supposed to be a womans watch but comes so big a man could wear it without a problem, this information would have been helpful. Especially when you pay almost $300 for a watch. I had to take it to a jewelers to have links taken out. Someyhing I've usually been able to do myself. This is the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars.

Not again!
Rating: 1
Worst smartwatch I have ever owned. Would not keep connected to my WiFi, didn't track steps right, and didn't really have a long battery life. I had to go to the Fossil store 4 times for help. Just not pleased. I returned the watch. I have owned several Fossil watches and never had a problem until this watch.
