    I have a gen 5. Battery longevity and google fit are the two reason I will not be upgrading to the 6. At first with aod on and lift to wake off I got 17 hours of battery life. 3 years later it's down to 4. Also Google fit is unacceptable, they really need to get with the times.

    Absolutely right. Using it for more than a year now and its just a stylish watch where you can only connect for emergency calls and to read messages without looking at your phone. That’s all it. Others are not so accurate even the steps doesn’t even count sometimes. If you want something accurate and techy, this watch is not fornyou, but if you just want a stylish and you only need is phone calls and read txt msgs then this might work. The battery only last for a day and you have to charge it before the end of the day if you want to use it again. It could last for 2days if you turn off everything and keep the display off

      thanks for this, I was just about to pull the trigger and try to upgrade my tozo s2 but I'm not too keen on having to charge it everyday. I need a watch that tracks my sleeping, steps, and bpm 24/7 all while looking as stylish as a traditional watch. oh well guess I'll keep looking.

    • @Moyuukii
      @Moyuukii ปีที่แล้ว +1

      not sure if you're still looking, but I just got my withings scanwatch yesterday and honestly it fits the criteria's you mentioned. It's stylish and as close to a traditional watch as you can get, all while being able to track your steps, sleeping and bpm 24/7 as this watch can probably get you through 30 days. It's still early days for me but I've looked around countlessly before making the decision so I'm hoping this is as good as I'm hoping it to be.

    Hey,
    I just got mine yesterday.
    And there's an update where you don't pair with WearOs app but with the Fossil App.
    I noticed that the gestures are gone, swipe to the left side doesn't have that Google assistant anymore, no Google fit, etc.
    Could you do a review and guide through these new things???

    Wear OS app is not compatible after the watch is updated to Wear OS 3. It connects only with Fossil Smartwatch app, which I am not happy with.
