Fossil launched a new smartwatch with Wear OS at the end of last August. The sixth generation of its smartwatches was called, effectively, Fossil GEN 6 and arrived with the Snapdragon Wear 4100+ at the helm, carrying Wear OS 2.0 and with the promise of a future update to Wear OS 3.0, the version of the operating system in which Samsung has also collaborated.
Once the watch had been seen and all its characteristics were known, what remained was for the brand to finally put it into circulation and that has already happened. In addition, it has arrived without waiting time to be able to buy it since it can already be ours on the company’s website and in the usual stores. And as expected, the watch starts at 299 euros.
