Smartwatch manufacturer Fossil Wear OS has stopped production: What does this mean for buyers?

Fossil, following a rapid sell-off last week, has announced that its stock of Wear OS smartwatches is no longer available. This means that consumers should refrain from purchasing from third-party stores as the company has stopped producing these devices.

Here's What We Know

Fossil has long been a leader in the Wear OS watch industry, but after updating to Wear OS 3, the company lost its relevance and announced its exit from the smartwatch market this year. Last week, the company decisively ended the sale of its remaining stock by offering smartwatches at discounted prices.

Currently, there are no Wear OS smartwatches available on Fossil's website, only a few hybrid models. Although the company has committed to supporting the software with its existing models, buyers should be careful when considering third-party offers.

Currently, there are still some Fossil watches available on third-party stores such as Amazon. However, the prices are significantly higher than their actual value, and consumers are advised to refrain from overpaying. Support may end and with it the possibility of receiving updates and new features.
