BEST FOR STYLE OVER FUNCTION

What’s the story?

Not everyone fancies a smartwatch that looks like a mini-calculator on their wrists. Some prefer the traditional watch look, with a bit of modern technology sprinkled on top. Fossil continues to cater to such an audience, and its new Gen 6 smartwatch is no different.

Is it any good?

The circular AMOLED display is lovely to look at sporting colours that pop, and inky blacks, which come to the fore when choosing a dark watchface. Speaking of which, there are quite a few to choose from by default, ranging from sober to informative. If you still need more, then there’s always the Play Store, which hosts thousands of third-party watch faces.

Under the hood is the Snapdragon 4100+ chipset, which is noticeably faster than what we have seen before. Apps open and shut with ease, and everything just feels snappy.
