  • Fossil Gen 6 smartwatches will be one of the first smartwatches to upgrade from Wear OS 2 to Wear OS 3.
  • The update will only be coming to Gen 6 devices and not the rest of Fossil’s portfolio.
  • The update will provide iOS connection support.

When we talk about Wear OS 3, much of the conversation is limited to a select few devices. However, it looks like that will soon change once the Fossil Gen 6 Wellness Edition hits store shelves later this month.

Earlier today, Fossil announced a new addition to its Gen 6 lineup of smartwatches — the Fossil Gen 6 Wellness Edition. The new device will come loaded with Wear OS 3 and will join the extremely small group of other smartwatches that also have the operating system. While it’s nice to see another smartwatch get the Wear OS 3 treatment, it seems it won’t be alone.
