Fossil 'Gen 5' smartwatch review: best of a Wear OS situation

I am so pleasantly surprised by how much I have enjoyed using the Fossil Carlyle smartwatch. It’s one of two so-called “Gen 5” Wear OS watches Fossil recently began selling for $295. Pleasantly surprised, but not at all convinced that this watch is worth investing in, to say nothing of this platform. I give Fossil credit for resolving two of my biggest complaints with Wear OS. The first fix involves a relatively simple internal change to give the watch more memory, while the other is unfortunately a very complicated series of battery options.

Way more. Way faster. This 44mm Gen 6 touchscreen smartwatch features a smoke-tone stainless steel bracelet, 2x faster charging speed (80% in a little over 30 minutes), Qualcomm 4100+ technology and tons of personalization options.
