The Fossil Q newest Android smartwatch feels right at home for existing Fossil owners. At a retail price of S$489, it is an affordable wrist accessory for watch wearers who appreciate the feel of a real watch fitted with modern tech for advanced interacti...
Being one of the last options available for Android Wear at the current time, Fossil is literally the last company to provide you w/ a variety of options for it. You got this: the 3rd-generation Explorist, the 3rd-gen Q Venture, and the 3rd-gen Q Sport. A...
Quality stainless steel casing and band, Feels like a classic timepiece, Bright, vibrant color screen, Android Wear 2.0, Will be upgraded to Oreo
Heavy and huge, Lacking heart rate monitor/GPS/waterproofing, Instructions are nearly nonexistent, No LTE option
Kati: I'm like a magpie, easily distracted by sparkly things. This watch is all that and more. Anytime I wore it, I received positive compliments and I have to say, as a fashion watch, I quite like it. As a functional, everyday watch, I can't commit as I...
Excellent design, Quality build, Android Wear 2.0 is very smooth, Rotating crown
Invoked Google Assistant entirely too often when simply bending my wrist, Mic didn't always pick up my voice commands immediately
As crazy as it may be, this really was my first experience with an Android Wear smartwatch. The Fossil Q Explorist 3rd Gen really was a great way to break into the smartwatch scene though. It's a solidly constructed smartwatch with great looks, and Androi...

Abstract: For years in smart wearables we've worn devices created by technology companies first, and the somewhat wonky design was something we just had to accept. Then smartwatch makers got smart, and started coming out with some great designs… but few of them ri...

Large, clear display, Great design, Expanded fitness tech
Only one day battery, Can only use proprietary charger, Not the newest chipset
Fossil's latest watch looks great and comes packed full of tech as well. It's not the most advanced smartwatch in the world, but considering its price you'd be hard pressed to go wrong with this Wear OS device...

Beautiful, metal design, Bright, round display, Programmable physical buttons
So-so battery life, Lacks Google Pay, Could be slightly slimmer
The Fossil Explorist is one of the best looking Wear watches for men, and while it doesn't escape from the some of same gripes we have about Fossil's other current smartwatches, it's a bit easier to forgive when it does such a fine job of hiding away thos...
Bright screen, Stylish design and quality build, 22mm swappable straps, Wear OS is improving, Programmable buttons are useful
Battery life isn't great, Charging time is far too long, Functions missing when paired with iPhone, Can be slow at times when using data/WiFi connection
As fashionable smartwatches go, there's a lot to like about the Fossil Q Explorist Gen 3. It's attractive, well made, waterproof and available in a choice of finishes and band styles.There's no advanced health or activity tracking here, but it does the jo...
Yes, if you want an attractive smartwatch to use with an Android phone that will blend in at work or play at an affordable price, we don't think you'll find a better option than the Fossil Q Explorist. The lack of NFC, GPS, and heart rate sensor is reflec...
