Fossil, everyone should be familiar with it! Fossil is a popular brand from the United States. It is the first watch manufacturer in the United States to add popular fashion elements to the chronograph function. Later, it has also launched men and women leather goods, accessories, sunglasses, etc.
 In recent years, 
After opening the box, you can see the watch, a magnetic USB charging cable, and the manual fossil Gen 5 It is super textured. Its frame is the shape of a traditional quartz watch with a black braided strap, Although there is also the function of sports records, Fossil Gen 5 is really fashionable and easy to use!
Fossil Gen 5 has three crowns. The upper and lower crowns are shortcut keys of the App. You can use the mobile phone "Wear OS by Google" App to set the program to be activated by yourself. You can set up to five groups of functions. Swipe the page, click to enter the main menu, a long press will wake up Google Voice Assistant
The quick-release design of the lugs makes it easier and faster to change the strap. It looks more casual when you put on the sports strap. You can change the strap. It is super suitable for the changeable XDA. 

Starting 
At the beginning, you need to choose the language to use, there are many built-in languages ​​to choose from! After agreeing to the terms of use, you will be prompted to download "Wear OS by Google" on your phone After the mobile phone download is complete, you can start to follow the steps to set up! The phone needs to turn on Bluetooth to connect with the watch, and then the App will search for the watch by itself and click the player table to pair
After that, the phone will start to connect to the watch. After confirming the pairing code, it will start to connect.
After the connection is completed, there will be instructions for use to explore how each function is used. If you slide the watch in different directions, you will see different function interfaces.

You can choose a variety of surfaces, no matter what kind of mood there is a best for you today

I  think that smartwatches have another great advantage! The surface can be replaced ~ You can change the surface every day according to your mood and preferences. Different surface functions are also different. Some can detect heart rhythm, display weather, step count, etc., and some only display time, so It depends on which function settings you need to display!


Just click the crown in the middle and tap "Settings"> "Display"> "Change Surface" to replace the
 surface, or you can also operate from "Wear OS by Google" on your phone
I  like robots and marbled surfaces. If you want to be cute, you want to be elegant. The colored surface turns into the dark mode in standby mode to save power.

Sometimes I take too many things in my hand, or I am simply lazy and don’t want to take the phone out of my bag. Fossil Gen 5 supports these functions and it is super convenient to use.

 Google Voice Assistant
Long press the crown in the middle, or directly say "OK Google" to wake up the voice assistant, you can ask the weather or navigation, but you need to connect to the mobile app to use this

Answer and make calls
The biggest feature of Fossil Gen 5 is the addition of speakers and microphones in this generation! So as long as the watch is within the range of the mobile phone connection, you can directly use the watch to answer the phone to talk to the phone ~ turn on the Bluetooth of the mobile phone so that the watch can search for the mobile phone device, click on the pairing can
I  feels that the sound quality of the call is not bad, that is, the feeling of the mobile phone being amplified, and the stability of the call is also smooth. I usually take too many things in my hand or I can’t find the mobile phone in the bag (the girl ’s bag is very  Horrible), you can use the watch directly to answer, not miss important calls! And after connecting to the mobile phone, the contact person's information will also be displayed on the watch synchronously, you can dial the phone directly by clicking it

 Editor's personal opinion
In fact, I do not usually have the habit of wearing a watch. Although the Fossil Gen 5 looks large, although it does not seem so elegant, the large surface is also clearer in operation. The watch contains a Milan braided strap of about 80 grams. I don’t think it ’s too heavy to wear. It uses the Wear OS by Google system, it also supports iOS users. Even iPhones can use the watch to call, receive messages, and edit. Calendar, etc., plus waterproof, hand washing or sweating do not need to worry too much. After using it as a whole, Hanne thinks that Fossil Gen 5 is a smartwatch with both appearance and practicality. I have to say this The retro look really won my heart
