Got the Falster 2 via a Brad's Deal deal for $69 last year. Great watch though it was a little slow and there was no speaker. The back of the watch came off and not it no longer works. I like the way this watch looked and worked and I'm willing to give the Falster 3 a try. Found a great deal on Watch Station ($125) for a new black Falster 3. Hope this one holds up better.

Best video on this product

I was considering the Skagen Falster 3 vs the GWA2 sense I always have Samsung phones and I had the GS3 frontier still I decided to go with GWA2. Especially after reading about many complaints of wear OS. Glad with my purchase. Still the Falster 3 looks amazing imo just wear OS.. Also I need and love the health tracking gs3 and GWA2 have Great review though great 👍

do you know how to setup/initiate sleep tracking on the Falster 3? thank you!

How is the wristband? I had the Carlyle a few month ago and it also featured a leather-silicone design...which seems perfect, but in reality it was a bit stiff and unflexible. The milanese/metal one is the same price so I'm hesitating on which version I should go...

Does this use the same charging rings as the gen 5 Fossil? So would it have the same issue if it is the same?

Would you recommend buying this while you have an iphone? i really do not like the design of the apple watch but do want the functions of a smartwatch.

Hi, I'm running an iPhone 11, does the watch "constantly" vibrate when there's an incoming call. what's the notifications like Thank you.

Interesting video. I've given up on smartwatches, except the very basic Xiaomi Mijia Watch, which measures steps, does notifications all on a regular watch battery which lasts for 4 months without changing and just looks BEAUTIFUL, or my latest Huawei Honor Band for more casual circumstances. I just can't see myself using the watch for any indepth activity other than the basics like time, steps, heart-rate, sleep analysis, maybe oxygen level, and basic notifications. I go to a larger, better suited device for the intense tasks. I also hate charging my wear OS twice a day when my two current devices last from 5 days to 4 months at a fraction of the cost. I don't find myself missing the fancier smart watches at all. Maybe it's because I'm just an old man, but I don't think so. I'm fairly adventurous when it comes to adopting new tech. Anyway, that's my take. It does look like a beautiful machine nonetheless.

Is the falster 3 the same watch as the gen 3? I've been trying to research this and I couldn't find anything.

Yet another watch I love the looks of, and hate the battery life on. When I can travel with one of these Wear OS watches for a week (plus) without having to worry about recharging, then I'll consider owning one. I'm starting to believe the Chinese have it right by scaling back on functionality and providing two plus weeks (or more) of battery life.

Is this compatible with any recent android phone? What are the requirements?

able to install Samsung Pay on this?

Excellent review though you didn't mention whether it has wireless charging or not. It doesn't. That's a very nice looking watch and the ability to take and make calls is a winner. The only problem is that that Wear OS is awful. You never know when you should swipe or rotate and the user experience is counterintuitive. The 3 battery saving options are pretty good but that extended setting doesn't allow flipping the wrist to see the time is very inconvenient. I prefer the tailored battery savings options available on my Active Watch 2. I wish Samsung would allow other makers to use Tizen. There is a reason that Tizen is the No. 2 watch OS used globally after Apples Watch OS. Wear is an afterthought for Google. It's a lazy design with very little thought put into the user experience. Fossil, has to its credit tried to improve it where it could.

Amazing Walkthrough.

Beautiful chassis. But yeah, it is just a Gen 5 hardware with a different body. Nevertheless, excellent device for day to day use (except health tracking, Wear OS is just poor in that regard).

Hate that all Fossil brand watches have big ass screen bezel. I have a Wear24 and it has no screen bezel compared to this. Basically all fossil brand and sub brands have watch faces that doesn't touch the edge of the screen because there's a big round black bezel separating it. My fossil sport is the same big-ass black screen bezel that you can't miss you if you have a light colour screen.

Why did sapphire screens go away altogether, and why do all the new models have an empty black ring in between the screen and the bezel? The original Huawei Watch looked better and I haven't found anything to match it yet, years later. A speaker and waterproofing are also not new features. I really wish someone made an original Huawei Watch, just with new internals. Even the Milanese band on it still looks new, plus the screen is flawless, even though it endured some drops and hits; it just needs better performing hardware.

Why would anyone bother to buy something that does nothing else that a smartphone already could? I mean, it's fun to track your activities and see your heart rate (you could do that with an index finger and a normal watch as well), but without a standalone music player, who cares? Smartwatches are a waste of energy and time, not to forget to mention the money. Just spend your money on something that is able to generate energy in stead of wasting it people.
