Is this better than the apple watch? | Fossil Gen 5E

Is this Fossil Gen 5E better than the apple watch. The new Fossil Gen 5E watch is the newest smartwatch from Fossil. Apple certainly has a huge part of the market with the Apple Watch. But Fossil is bringing a strong product to the smart watch game.

i dont get why these reviewers act so surprised that fossil release good watches lol, they're one of few decent watch companies for quality + price and have been for decades

For some reason Best buy had this watch on sale for $149 a month ago. Glad I caught the deal!

I hope the 5e doesn't develop the same issue as the regular 5 gen where the mic/speaker goes out and you can barely hear it or no longer talk.

My favorite watch growing up was a awesome silver and red fossil. Before that I was a g~shock kind of guy but now I have the Nike Apple Watch series 6 and I love it

hi is that an iPhone you connected to?? I have this watch and want to switch to iphone but am worried the texts won't show up on the watch..

Gen 5 is a good watch but not suitable for iphone, not only fossil watch all wear OS runs perfectly with android but not with iphone

[BKCycles]

Great video as usual! I like its design, it looks like a real watch :)

[TheTheNewGuy]

I wasn't sold by his review on this product. I'll keep looking at other reviews, but I am interested in the watch

Hi, In this watch there is reply to messages if you are using with IPhone.

Can I get the notification from Slack and Microsoft outlook from iPhone to this fossil watch?

[Merban]

Do you need like a line for a carrier plan or no?

I have had my watch almost a year. Wondering why my watch will ring and when I go to answer it says to finish call on my cell phone. How can I answer on the watch??

Just traded my Galaxy Watch Active 2 for this. Ended up being $179 after tax at Best Buy. I'm liking it way more than the Galaxy Active, but battery life is for sure worse. And Facer on Android Play Store is great for watch faces.

I have the fossil gen 5 julianna and iphone 12 mini . I cant get the heart n sleep tracker to work. :( any one else have this problem ?

[claudiomares]

Do you recommend more this or Galaxy watch active2 for the same price?

[beckycpc]

Is this compatible with a wireless charging station made for phone and watch?

[coopergraceland]

Can you voice control to text a message so you don't have to write it out on the 5E?

[jGRite]

The thing about that charging style is the watch can't handle getting wet and then drying on it's own. I have the Fossil 3 Sport and 5. I had to send the 3 back to get replaced, and the same thing happened to the 5. This time, I won't stand in the rain with the watch exposed while directing traffic, and if I sweat I'll wipe it down. However I am looking at the Galaxy Watch 3 as a replacement unless Fossil swaps the charging style. If the rings was on the charger, and not on the watch then it would be more water proof. I find it odd they over looked this.


...and don't get me started on Wear OS. I like it, but it's got some shortcomings outside of battery life.

[dionysius]

love the watch but the review not so much, work on studying the info on products man

[MissMalikaA]

I find it so hard to find an android watch that can answer calls but speak through the watch like the iwatch and txt full messages not just like 10 pre made short messages and waterproof
