Fossil Gen 6 Review: High Speeds, Hard Specs, Soft Wear

The best thing the smartwatch inherited from its traditional ancestors is the choice it gives you in styles – and for years, the biggest contributor to that diversity has been Fossil Group. If the relentlessly repetitive rectangles of the Apple Watch or the simplistic circles of Samsung just aren’t what you want on your wrist, Fossil and its partners have been there to sell you everything from edgy Armani to bedazzled Michael Kors to ... whatever craziness DIESEL is crankin’ out these days.  For the past two years those watches have been based on Fossil’s Generation 5 platform – but I’ve spent two weeks with an early version of the sequel upon which the next generation will be built. I’m Michael Fisher; join me for the latest MrMobile review to see what there is to like (and lament) about the Fossil Gen 6 smartwatch!
