We’ve been singing the praises of the Fossil Gen 5 smartwatch since its release in 2019. At launch, we had a few complaints about the watch, one of which was its lack of LTE connectivity. It took a few years, but Fossil has finally launched a new version of its flagship smartwatch with the ability to connect to a mobile network. This is Android Authority’s Fossil Gen 5 LTE review.

About this Fossil Gen 5 LTE review: I used the Fossil Gen 5 LTE for one week running Wear OS version H-MR1 on the August 1, 2020 security patch. It was connected to my Google Pixel 5 throughout the testing period. The Fossil Gen 5 LTE review unit was provided to Android Authority by Fossil. Since we have already reviewed the Fossil Gen 5 (non-LTE), we’re going to keep this review short. For many of the features that we’ve already covered, I will point you towards our full Fossil Gen 5 review.
