    Is this a good watch?

    • ccarnage on 18/02/2021 - 13:08

      Gets good reviews, hasn't got the latest processor, but @$120 its unbeatable really.

    • BananaSplitz on 18/02/2021 - 13:10

      Yes. The only downfall perhaps is the battery life but unless you have every feature enabled then you should be fine. The customisability is excellent and it runs smoothly.

      • ccarnage on 18/02/2021 - 13:11

        Yep, I will be disabling eg the background heartrate monitor etc, don't realy need/want all the constant health feature; should dave heaps of battery.

        • BananaSplitz on 18/02/2021 - 13:13

          Yep that’s what I did. I went from charging every day to charging every three days. I’ll also note I disabled the connectivity settings too.

          • CyberMurning on 18/02/2021 - 13:43

            @BananaSplitz: disable connectivity means you cant get notification sms, whatsapp email etc when they are coming?

            • TaurusHead on 18/02/2021 - 13:57

              @CyberMurning: I guess, it means that it won't be keep searching the bluetooth or Wifi.

                @TaurusHead: what even is the point of getting a smart watch? you are effectively using a dumb watch that the battery only last 3 days.

                • BananaSplitz on 19/02/2021 - 13:48

                  @OMGJL: Good point. Though for me it depends on the day. During work days I don’t want to be distracted, but on weekends I open everything up again :)

                  • CyberMurning on 19/02/2021 - 13:53

                    @BananaSplitz: so you are saying by disable connectivity is no notification from sms whatsapp etc ? basically stand alone watch ? ie time mode ?

                    • BananaSplitz on 19/02/2021 - 18:27

                      @CyberMurning: Yep. But you can still play around with the watch faces and access contacts etc since it’s loaded to the watch.

    • JIMB0 on 18/02/2021 - 14:12

      Much better value than a Cartier Watch.

      • CyberMurning on 19/02/2021 - 13:54

  • TripleJJJ on 18/02/2021 - 13:08

    Bought a Samsonite case during last 25% cashback. Thought it was a decent deal. The only thing Iconic refuse to honor my cash back. Dodge company. Should abslutely avoid .

    • julz15 on 18/02/2021 - 13:46
      +3

      Was just about to comment this. I find that cashback purchases @ The Iconic via Shopback don't tend to get honoured. I would stick to Cashrewards for The Iconic purchases.

      • TripleJJJ on 18/02/2021 - 14:10

        Well I think my story is different. At first, cashreward didnt track my cashback. I showed them the invoice and they manually added for me. However, the Iconic refused to honor my cashback at last. I use the same way on Amazon Australia and get cashback tracked everytime. Dodge company.

        • julz15 on 18/02/2021 - 14:22

          Oh damn. That's unfortunate. Sorry to hear.

    I got this in the sale the other day.. Good watch, battery life is rubbish but i turned off most things as suggested and its better. It's a bit chunky and heavy but I've never really worn a watch.

    I'll probably get a more breathable strap if anyone has any suggestions..

    possible to get the strap adjusted at a fossil shop?

    • dekekun on 18/02/2021 - 13:56

      Its a standard 22mm strap.

    Cheers, signed up, used the $20 code and also used shopback so if that tracks, another 10% off as well.

    • jimojr on 18/02/2021 - 14:11

      You won't get the cashback if the code not list on Shopback.

      • xyron on 18/02/2021 - 17:06

        Got an email before from Shopback saying it had tracked but who knows if they'll honour it. Doesn't bother me too much, I'd rather the $20 discount than the potential for $11 in cashback.

  • haji on 18/02/2021 - 13:31

      Google fit is the health side of things (and the watch has gps)

    • ccarnage on 18/02/2021 - 13:35

      Should come with it installed on the watch. To view data, you can also install the Google fit app on your phone.

  • stevem42 on 18/02/2021 - 13:38

    Just got mine from the previous deal too. Tried through iconic and wasn't able to get any further discount after signing up, went straight through fossil via cashrewards and still had nothing show up.. but even at $150 it's a bargain in my opinion.

    Came from a 1st Gen ticwatch pro, and it's definitely an upgrade. I'm happy if the battery just lasts longer than that one did which was usually a little under a day but a quick charge when I have a shower etc was enough.

    I got the steel front with black band version and like other people had said it looks a hell of a lot better than it does in the photos, thinner than the ticwatch too.

  • CyberMurning on 18/02/2021 - 13:39

    is that true you can have daily mode, extended mode, time only mode ?

    • mouski on 18/02/2021 - 13:42

      Yes

  • MK007 on 18/02/2021 - 13:39

    Hows its connectivity with IOS?

    • mouski on 18/02/2021 - 13:43

      It’s…so so. Every now and then it will drop and you need to re open the Wear app to get it going again. Rinse and repeat etc.

      • MK007 on 18/02/2021 - 13:47

    I got turned off Wear OS due to sluggish performance after using the Misfit Vapor 2 (but it was more hardware related - slow CPU and 512 MB RAM). Wear OS just doesn’t seem as polished as Watch OS.

    I ended up going for an Amazfit Stratos and it’s been surprisingly good.

    • ccarnage on 18/02/2021 - 13:54
      +2

      I've heard that 512mb to 1gb makes a world of difference for wearos.

      Definitely not as polished as watchos, but hopefully fossil and ticwatch +new processors from snapdragon this year will boost googles development speed for us!

      Already got an android phone so can't really choose watchos, compared to tizen (samsung watches), wearos has the massive advantage of using google assistant instead of bixby 🤢

    the $20 code didn't work?

    • ccarnage on 18/02/2021 - 14:05

      Which $20 code? Use the referral link to get the $20 off when signing up.

      Then shop back should give you 10% off too (don't use the shop back $20 coupon listed on their site, it didn't work for me)

      • BarginGrabber on 18/02/2021 - 14:09

        Ah alright, used the wrong code. had to check my email for the right one

      • Jackson on 18/02/2021 - 14:15

        Code didn't work for me neither, looks like this watch has been taken off the list of items for this code

        Ah, for some reason they give you a code on the screen and it doesn't work, the one they send you is different.

    • cunningdrew on 18/02/2021 - 14:23

      Copy code from email, not from the ouput on the page itself. I think it's case sensitive or something.

  • brosk1s on 18/02/2021 - 14:36

    Thanks OP, grabbed one as a gift to my dad before it went OOS.

    Seems like a decent Wear OS watch even without being $120-130. Tizen watches have never let me down, but at this price its very hard to ignore, helps that my dad is the frugal type that would probably be offended by a $500 smartwatch.

      • loxofdeals on 18/02/2021 - 16:06

        Thanks guys. Found a review on the Fossil website confirming ChiMot.

        "Bit gutted and angry that all the gen 5 watches state they can do gps tracking without being tethered to a phone. The gps needs to be tethered to the phone to work which is totally daft and pointless. Geeking out it seems to be a something Fosssil are not bothered about fixing anytime soon. I didn't find out about this till it was too late to return. Its a shame as otherwise its a lovely watch"

        • CyberMurning on 18/02/2021 - 16:25

          you dont want it anyway. it will drain the battery like no tomorrow

          • xyron on 22/02/2021 - 16:54

            @CyberMurning: Plenty of watches have Pepsi bezels, not sure if Rolex was the first (although they probably were).

            The bigger bug-bear I have with the Fossil bezel is that despite looking like it rotates, it doesn't (and, in fairness, probably doesn't need to, as if you have a smartwatch you have lots of options to account for time).

    • ccarnage on 22/02/2021 - 16:30

      Awesome, I haven't got mine yet! Can you send a photo of how it looks with the strap? I was considering swapping the band too :)
