Ivan, 05 January 2022

Fossil has announced two new smartwatches today - the Razer X Fossil Gen 6 and the Skagen Falster Gen 6. Both run on the Snapdragon Wear 4100+ platform and are compatible with Wear OS 3 (which will arrive later via firmware update).

The special-edition Razer X Fossil Gen 6 smartwatch is done in collaboration with the gaming brand and is a custom variant of the Fossil Gen 6, which has been around since August.

It comes with two custom-designed 22mm silicone bands - one in black and one in Razer's recognizable green. The watch comes equipped with three Razer-themed faces and elements of Razer throughout the interface. The Razer Chroma face has different lighting effects and is customizable.

There are 8GB of storage and 1GB of RAM, paired to the Wear 4100+ chip.

The Razer X Fossil Gen 6 can go for two days on a charge but charges very fast. It can achieve 80% in just 30 minutes.

Exactly! What's the point of having features and features if we have to turn off everything if want the battery to last a single night!

The band looks exactly like the one on the first Galaxy Watch. Still a nice smartwatch though, I might even buy one and wear it occasionally.
