Fossil this week launched its Gen 5 smartwatches in the Indian market. To recall, the series of Wear OS by Google smartwatches were launched globally in August this year. The smartwatches come with a heart rate monitor, accelerometer, gyroscope, altimeter, and an ambient light sensor. The series is supposedly designed to offer better functionality for iPhone users and many of the changes were made based on customer feedback.
