Great watch overall
I love the design of this watch. Clean and simple. Not bulky at all which I love. I have small wrists but this still looks sleek instead of bulky. Battery lasts me all day with most of the sensors running. Does well at tracking heartrate. That was actually my main goal for this purchase. Needed to keep track of my heartrate and didn't like the monitors that were out there and the design of this watch fit my style. Many compliments on the design. Fossil update brings sleep tracking which is a lot better that the third party applications I've tried. Very happy with the purchase. This Falster 3 is a little larger than the Falster 2 but is faster and the battery lasts longer. Having a speaker is nice. OK Google detection only lasted a couple days then stopped working. Some have said it's an Android Wear update that caused it. It's not that critical to me and definitely doesn't outweigh the benefits of this watch.

Great upgrade from an LG Style watch
Just updated from an LG style watch to this and it is great! The watch is quick and battery life is good for my usage. Put on watch at 7am and would be around 30% at 9-10pm. Great looking watch as well! Only thing is that I wish it was a bit thinner.

Does what I want it to do.
This is my first smart watch. I like the minimalist style very much. It is compatible with Google Wear OS and I'm an Android guy so... that is great. It has survived a couple of dips in the pool, works with many of my apps, but not all of them, and so far I'm loving it. You will note in the pics that the watch face doesn't go all the way to edges. This is because the watch face app I'm using hadn't issued a release for Falster 3 so I chose Falster 2. The app developer tells me it will stretch all the way to edges of screen in their next release (we'll see). Oh, BTW, battery seems pretty good also. I don't want to sleep with this on so I charge it every evening. It generally has about 20% life left when I charge. I recommend the device.

It's perfect. With a context
I love this watch. You have to understand what it is, you have to charge it daily and it's wear os. I haven't experienced any lag issue, the battery is enough for a day, and it look stunning on the wrist. this watch is perfect in its context

Doesn't live up to expectations
I was torn between this and the Samsung Galaxy Active 2, so I bought both. I really wanted to like this watch because I'm not a fan of Samsung's apps or Bixby assistant. I love the idea of Wear OS because of Google integration & their huge selection of apps, especially a stand alone Telegram app and Google Pay - all features the Galaxy Active 2 lack. Unfortunately, those things aren't enough to justify keeping the watch. The Falster 3 looks nice and is a good size for my wrist (I'm a 5'3 female). Those are the only positives. From the moment I charged the phone and prepared to set it up, I could notice that it was laggy and didn't always respond to my touch. This is something I would expect from an older watch nearing it's end of life - not something straight out of the box. Set up was easy, but slow. Updating, downloading apps, just about everything took much longer than I expected. When it was all said and done, I just wasn't impressed. The watch actually suggested turning off certain features (like gestures to turn the screen on) to increase battery life. What is the point of having a watch packed with features if the battery can't handle you using them?Another issue, which I'm not factoring into the rating of the watch but more toward Amazon, is that I'm pretty sure the watch had been purchased, worn and returned prior to me buying it. The little sticker that covers the watch face was falling off as if it had been removed and replaced a few times. The wrist band was dusty and the back of the watch had grime on it as if it had been worn.The whole experience was enough for me to have it boxed and ready for return within 30 minutes of receiving it.

Avoid. Terrible QC. Speaker doesn't work!
UPDATE: Ordered a 2nd Skagen. Speaker worked one day. After that just "ticking sounds" through the speaker.Really recommend you avoid this entirely. Samsung Galaxy seems decent, but only uses Bixby asst., NOT Google asst. I can't live with that!I really wanted to love this watch, have it work as it claims. But clearly QC sux at FOSSIL, and while I could receive a call, and be heard, I could not hear the person calling me ... just clicking. I'm returning the day after received and trying once more. I may get a good one. If not, I'm done. What a shame a $300 watch can't be trouble-free. I'll update for those who rely on these reviews, as I do.UPDATE: ordered the Fossil Gen 5, and it works perfectly! Speaker is loud and clear! If the Skagen didn't work for you, give the fossil Jen 5 a try. I think you'll be pleased.
