Niiiiiiiice right on jamestheradioman!!! And yes sir!!!! Brought it right out, love that mix because I know it can take a beating from traveling in and out of bags and stuff and still work like a charm!
As of last week, I am rocking the same Pixel 7/Neutra Gen 6 Hybrid combo. It's great! I wanted something with an e-ink display and Fossil's hybrid is the only branded watch on the market that satisfies that desire. I like that there are no flashing colors to distract my attention I like that it looks like an analog watch and that the analog method of interaction means that it needs to be used with purpose. I'm loving the battery life. For me, the only thing missing is canned responses to messages. I don't know that they would work for my main messaging app, Messenger, but that is what I would like to see. I will also probably replace the band, but Fossil's, leather in a silicone channel, band is great!
I'm just IN the process of upgrading to the Gen6, shall be delivered in a few days. My Latitude Hybrid HR was (I guess) killed by the hellish temperatures of the last weeks (almost 104° F here in Europe), the battery didn't charge full anymore and the display was dead. But since I felt almost some kind of phantom pain after not having it on my wrist anymore, I decided to buy a new one. Really curious about the changes from the old to the new generation, that'll be fun to discover.
Oh my gosh that is INSANELY hot weather!! Yeah I guess that would do it unfortunately, dang. I do hope you like the Gen6, for me it's the perfect level of interaction with a smart device on my wrist; still wear and use mine every single day since this video and it has held up great!
@@elijahB I bought it in 2021. It still feels and looks great. But again, the inconvenience is that the screen stopped working. Also, I live in Mauritius and there is no suitable place for the repairs here.
To my knowledge, it can only be done through the phone it is connected to unfortunately. Mine automatically set the correct date and time when I connected it to my phone via Bluetooth!
I'm still using my old Samsung Gear S2 and thinking about picking this up to get away from the "normal" looking smartwatch, but I'm reading a lot of complaints about the watch freezing and or dying after a short time. Have you or anyone here ran into any issues with the watch not performing as expected? Thank you
Mine has been excellent so far! My battery still lasts for weeks, and I have not had ONE instance of it glitching/restarting or anything like that. Sometimes it disconnects from my phone but when I get back in range it reconnects automatically!!
I Have 2 more questions please... 1) About water resistance, Can I swim or atleast go out in rain wearing this watch? 2) Does this watch get updates from fossil?
I have accidentally swam with it once and it was okay; though I wouldn't recommend it for swimming. In the rain it has been just fine as well!! I have not received an update yet, but presumably if they wanted to, Fossil could push new firmware to the watch from within the app on your phone!
Thank you!! Yes!! I'm wearing it right now, and I almost never take it off. Connectivity has been great with my phone, only one of two weird instances where it's been weird. Battery life is my favorite feature because I just do not have to think about it - I literally don't even keep the charger out, every couple of weeks I grab it from the drawer and juice it up while I take a shower and then I'm good for another couple of weeks!! Love this thing!
Basically the only difference is in the design; the way the watch looks! They have many other variants that you can check out, too. Same functions, different design!
oooooh that would be sick!! Unfortunately you can't pay with them, no; I use Android Pay for 90% of the time I pay for something, too so I do have to pull out my phone for that
@@elijahB Yeah I can not wait for that . Just Ordered them and I will send them to company to gold plate them. Gold plating is not expensive as it sounds. But it has to be done properly by good company.OK that is fine. Just one second to pull out the phone anyway . I just need notifications and some fitness tracking . But most importantly I prefer classic watches . But I miss some smart functions. And battery life is great too. I do not like charging smartwatches every day. This is for me the best available choice right now .
I dont recomended fossil smart watch the battery charge so bad. pin not magnet same like a apple charge. My fossil gen 5 charly 1 year old when i charge connect and disconnect then buy new cable charge from amazon still not work. waste dollar hhhh
Mark Ass Brownies and Linus Tech Tips fear one man.
I'm still rocking my Fossil Q Nate Hybrid for 4 years. Great video!
Also, cool 😎 to see the Shure SM58 🎤 in the field.

Really cool watch.. and very nice work with the video, you made up my mind to go for this watch 😅
Aw man thank you Sagar I appreciate that!!! I'm glad you liked watching it!

That is a pretty cool watch and so is the scenery!
Thank you Autxmn I appreciate that my friend, thank you for watching!! 😁
My screen just turned gray...I cant see when I have a notification. Also I dont know where to bring it for repairs.
Aw mannnnn that is a bummer - mine is still working like when I got it. For repairs maybe you can reach out to Fossil themselves?
@@elijahB I bought it in 2021. It still feels and looks great. But again, the inconvenience is that the screen stopped working. Also, I live in Mauritius and there is no suitable place for the repairs here.
How do you change the date and time??
To my knowledge, it can only be done through the phone it is connected to unfortunately. Mine automatically set the correct date and time when I connected it to my phone via Bluetooth!
are you able to change the color of the menu from black to white pls respond
I can change the main watchface to white background, but not the menu!
@@elijahB thx so much also wondering does it have quick reply on android? Or iphone
To my knowledge there is no quick reply on either platform!
I'm still using my old Samsung Gear S2 and thinking about picking this up to get away from the "normal" looking smartwatch, but I'm reading a lot of complaints about the watch freezing and or dying after a short time.

@@elijahB Placed an order about an hour ago. Thank you
Wats the difference between neutra n wellness edition
To my knowledge, the only difference is the design, and the possible addition of a few different health-related sensors in the Wellness Edition!
how to get this… its not available in online sites
I bought mine on Amazon!
@@elijahB currently nt available
I Have 2 more questions please...
1) About water resistance, Can I swim or atleast go out in rain wearing this watch?

Great short review. Any longer-term thoughts?

Love this thing!
Awesome watch face! Where'd you get it??
Thank you so much!! It's actually just a slightly-tweaked one from the Fossil app selection that was built in. They're really simple and clean!
@@elijahB cool! I don't have this watch yet but I think I'm sold. Thanks for the review!
@@KingStProduction Right on!! It has still been treating me well; I have it on my wrist right now. I hope you enjoy it!
What is the difference between gen 6 machine hybrid and gen 6 nuetra hybrid?
Basically the only difference is in the design; the way the watch looks! They have many other variants that you can check out, too. Same functions, different design!
Can I take calls and Control music when connected to my mobile?
You can control music from your wrist, but you cannot take calls! You will see when you have an incoming call, but you cannot act on it.
@@elijahB Thank You for the quick response.
Does this have qi wireless charging? Just curious
It does not! I tried, and it only works on the included charger.
@@elijahB thanks for the quick response. !
@@shubhammahapatra6749 No problem!! 😊
Is it waterproof?
I believe it is resistant to splashes - I have submerged it a couple of times, but not for too long since I didn't want to risk it!
Nice vid, E! 💓💓
thank you Mom! 💞
They are awesome especially this model. I would gold plate the body . And perfect watch for me. Can you pay with them ?
oooooh that would be sick!! Unfortunately you can't pay with them, no; I use Android Pay for 90% of the time I pay for something, too so I do have to pull out my phone for that

I agree with you!! I had an Apple Watch and I got rid of it because it was too much - this is just the right amount of helpfulness!
I have no plans to purchase a new watch, but this video was cool!
Aw thank you Tuna!! I appreciate you watching it, man
Cool video. Just with it was on a better day for me
