maltesh posted:I wonder if It's a number of notifications thing, because I've had my own LG Watch Style since May '17, and I consider it a red-letter day if it still has charge 12 hours after taking it off the charger. That said, another possibility is that I might be accidentally sushing the crown in with the back of my hand without noticing it. Admittedly I have set it to ignore a lot of notifications. Basically anything i would get in my phone and immediately ignore got turned off. I don't really need NHL updates on my wrist for example. My crown is hosed though. It's at this unhealthy looking angle probably from getting hit by my hand all the time. But it still works and keeps chugging along.

If you have your watch on wifi it still gets stuff through black magic. I found that out when I forgot my phone at home one day and still got texts at work.

Is a Fossil Gen 5 worth getting? I still have the LG Style and it's fine for what I use it for but the Gen 5 is down to $220 at Best Buy and they've got one left. It's got more bells and whistles and power under the hood than my current watch but is it actually worth it since my Style isn't dead?

Wacky Delly posted:Fossil.com is also running a valentine's day promotion to take another 30% off. Ends up being $150ish. Which is a fine price for it. Well gently caress. I bought Best Buys last watch earlier today. I'll take the receipt back tomorrow and have them price match it down though Edit: according to their website that promotion doesn't apply to the smartwatches Len fucked around with this message at 01:18 on Feb 10, 2020 |

Yeah, the battery life is a lot better than my style too All those people who told me in the thread "yeah but you won't get that battery life in a year" called it. Around a year and half it went to poo poo and stopped lasting 24 hours

Uncle Lizard posted:It's the charging rings! Gen 4 had that issue, and they allegedly fixed it for the sport, which was basically gen 4.5. I have a sport and a gen 5 Carlyle. I sent in the Carlyle for repair for the charging rings starting to detach, so I was wearing my sport as a backup (similar battery life, but slower in every way). I took my sport off of the charger to find the charging rings stuck to the charger. Since it was purchased within 2 years, I get that one fixed for free as well, for a second time. They didn't charge me for shipping, and are fixing both watches under warranty, but this poo poo is ridiculous. What do you have to do for this because my charge rings are falling off after about 6 months

Uncle Lizard posted:If it's within 2 years of purchase, it is covered under warranty. Proof of purchase, pictures of the issue, and of course, don't back down until you get a free shipping label. I figure, once the warranty is up, I'll just super glue the rings on, which is what they probably should do, but I'm no scientist. What contact email/phone number do you use? I'm going to go and have Best Buy pull my receipt this weekend

I've got the issue where my rings are falling off. I need to get around to doing an RMA but it's not stopping the watch from charging yet and I've still got like a year and change before the two years is up

LastInLine posted:I've had it go both ways, but the only way to get them to pay shipping to get into a support chat with them. For what it's worth I've had mine "fixed" five times for that problem so far, and most times it comes back from repair nonfunctional or breaks within the first week or so. Turns out Fossil can just do a replacement in store

bull3964 posted:I'm cautiously optimistic. Samsung health and fitness tracking is actually really good on recent hardware. The Galaxy Watch 3 is the first device I've ever used that actually has realistic sleep tracking and by all accounts is better than what Apple can do since it uses cardio data to track cycles. The sleep score and the cycle metrics track pretty much exactly with how I feel the next day. The fitness tracking, especially the autodetection stuff, is also really good. I had one issue with my Gen 5 in the year I had it and that was the charge rings starting to fall off. It's apparently just a thing that happens because ??? I couldn't figure out how to get them to cover the shipping while dealing with their automated customer service so I just went to the Fossil store and they gave me a new one, in and out in 5 minutes.

LastInLine posted:Given how poorly the back actually stays attached to Fossil watches you'd think they'd use screws simply to prevent it from falling off constantly. That's a feature, if the back comes off they'll just give you a new watch. It's a free trade in!

I had that Google play credit from p7, as well as some device cash I accumulated through the Play Store, so I bought one. Just wondering if it's a dumpster fire. Only other smartwatch I have is a 40mm Galaxy Watch 4 and I like it. Feels snappier than my fossil gen 5 and it doesn't have charge rings that act up and fall off
