The first android smartwatch worth buying
Rating: 5
For me a smartwatch first has to be a watch I want to wear. I think all the android smartwatches until now have been too bulky for my taste. This smartwatch looks great on the arm, it also functions great too. Android wear is pretty well sorted out and the controls on this hardware are adequate. The battery life is not as good as other offerings but if you charge every night, and don't use the tilt to turn display, it's a non issue. I am excited to see the 5th gen, if all they did was give the battery life a serious boost and add a rotating bezel, I would be first in line.

One of the best for wear 2.0
Rating: 5
This is a great watch and I have absolutely enjoyed wearing it. There are many pros and over the course of using it I have only one con. Pros: Improved battery- I keep wrist gestures on and brightness all the way up and the watch will last all day with about 15 percent left. Beautiful screen--vivid and sharp/picture backgrounds look great Messaging- replying is a breeze and looks more discrete than pulling out your phone. *customizable dials*- by far the best feature. I can choose what information is displaying on my watch at any moment. Con- No external speaker- the only bad thing is you can not complete calls with only the watch. The watch has a mic but no speaker and so if you make a call your phone will do the work but if you have headphones it can still make things easier when your busy.

Very nice smartwatch
Rating: 5
Very good, lightweighted. Fast charge but battery use up quite fast also. Excellent watch. I like the watch faces and NFC payment.

I would definitely buy this again

So far it's been amazing and really easy to learn how to use, wish the battery lasted a bit longer, my days are pretty long here lately.

I love the watch!
Rating: 5
I use mine pretty much all day and use it a fair amount. I really don't see why people complain about the battery life. The watch looks really fashionable and works great.

GEN 4 SMARTWATCH EXPLORIST HR BLUE / TAN LEATHER
Rating: 4
First time Fossil watch buyer of any kind. Overall aesthetics is great. Love the color combo. It took awhile to get delivered due to the COVID19 pandemic. I'm able to use my watch for a full 8 hrs. and some. I turned off the "Tilt to Wake" & "Always ON Screen" I either tap the screen or press the crown to wake up the watch. Not a big deal. Works for me and maybe not for others. Some people like to have the screen always on and it will definitely drain the battery. Pairing was easy and Setup was a breeze. So far so good. I've had it for 1 full week with no major hiccups. For the price I got it for, I can't complain too much.. I consider my purchase a good buy and we'll see how long this watch will last.

Good purchase based on price
Rating: 4
Wanted a smart watch for some time. Had to restore the original settings twice but think it's working great now. Purchased a watchface application that has made me almost fall in love with the watch. Had the watch band been made for woman's wrist, I would have given the watch rating of 5. Will need to buy a different band because it's not small enough for my wrist. Like the charger a lot!

I love the watch but battery life is not good
Rating: 4
I use mine for everyday useso I get better battery life. My wife uses hers for working out, kickboxing cardio. By the time the hour is over she only has 37% left. Not enough to make it to the end of the day. I'm thinking about returning hers but she really likes how the fuction work.

Love it
Rating: 5
I had for over a year and its good and still love it. I have different bands to change out the look. love it more then other smartwatches it has that girly touch and looks like a normal circle watch vs other smartwatches. I have other apps to make it custom to my liking and change it around. I read people complaining about the battery but every night my phone and watch go on the charger, nothing to complain about just part of my daily routine. I love it and always looking for new bands to wear with it.

Best Smartwatch Yet.
Rating: 5
I've used Fitbit, and then another wearOS Smartwatch, and the Gen 5 Julianna far exceeds them both. The battery life is shorter than some, but that's not a deal breaker for me. I live the smaller size and decorative touches as well.

Nice gen 5

I like monitoring my blood pressure and watching how many steps I take on my watch. I haven't connected it with my phone yet but I like it so far.

I would buy it again
Rating: 5
I bought this watch for my daughter, because I have so many Fossil watches, and thought she would like it too, but she choose another brand. I'd would buy one for me because it's practical and easy to use, not heavy at all and like the style very much. So I do recommend this watch.

So far so good,
Rating: 4
Havent had any issues I'm still gettin to know the watch. I quickly bought wrist bands because of the reviews of how fast the original gets dirty so I havent worned mines. I went to the gym with it seems pretty accurate with the steps. It's only been about 2 weeks or so that I've had not much to say. Replies to messages well and hasnt gone dead on me just yet. Like it works a full day, I'm not on it all day and not many apps running as well.. 3 stars because no issues yet . I bought accessories so I wont destroy it. That's a clear protector on the face

Amazing
Rating: 4
I love this watch. I got this to upgrade from my fossil hybrid. There is 1 main thing that this watch doesn't do that my hybrid did (and the reason I didn't rate 5 star). The fossil app for my hybrid kept up with my sleep but this gen 5 operates through Google and it doesn't have that and it's pretty disappointing. I would much rather have a Fossil app to go with this

Beautiful watch
Rating: 4
My only concern is that the leather strap is so pretty at first but it gets dirty and work downtown almost immediately.
by Away on 2019-12-14T16:00:00

Love the watch but 2 things...
Rating: 3
1. Battery length not as advertised, currently at 62% after wearing for 9 hours from fully charged. 2. Leather band already looks old after 1 week. I do not keep it on while cleaning or washing my hands. It just seems to absorb dirt. Otherwise, this is a great watch once you get it set up how you like.

I loved this watch, until it fell apart
Rating: 2
I love Fossil, I love so many of the products they produce! When they came out with the HR Smartwatch, I was so excited!! I had wanted a smartwatch that looked like a traditional watch with the circular face, not the square face. My husband bought this watch for my birthday November 22, 2018. I've had this watch for less than a year and suddenly it wouldn't charge or hold its battery life. I tried all the troubleshooting I could find and nothing worked. Then yesterday, while trying to charge the watch, as I pick it up from the charger the bottom side of my watch almost completely separated (see included photos). The seal is completely gone. I have taken very good care of this watch. You will see in the pictures that there is NO damage, at all, to any area or parts of my watch. I have never showered, swam or washed dishes while wearing the watch. I have no clue how this could have happened. I can't find the receipt to send my watch in to be fixed or else I would. I love this watch because it's fashionable and functional to workout with. I don't love that it falls apart when well taken care of. Buy at your own discretion, but keep your receipt incase the worst should happen.

I've l had my watch for 3 day and the band looks horrible. I wash my hands a lot and it got wet and looks like it about to start falling apart.
