So here we are with the unboxing. The fossil gen 5e ranges in price between 150 and 250 dollars, which makes it a competitor to the moto 360, ranging between 199 and 299. contents of the fossil include the fossil gen 5e smartwatch charge.
Dock quick start guide and warranty and product information when it comes to the moto 360. It has the added benefit of coming with two bands: a leather band and a high impact sports band. Unlike the gen 5e, the model 360 features a special coating depending on the model you purchase, which means it should have improved durability when it comes to design the gen 5e features a multi function, button speaker and mic the top button on the gen 5e powers, the Device off or on, if pressed and held for a few seconds, if tapped and held for a moment it triggers the google assistant and a quick tap, opens apps and settings. While the moto 360 is missing a speaker, it has an improved two button system. The top button performs all the functions the gen 5e does, with the added benefit of rotating for menu navigation. This gives you an added level of precision over using the touchscreen for navigation. The lower button is a settings button which is also remappable for a desired function. When it comes to the displays, they are essentially the same between the two devices with the moto 360 having corn and gorilla glass, both watches also have the same water resistance of three atms. Next, we have the bands the gen 5e band is thicker and more edgy. Giving it a bolder appearance in comparison, the moto 360 band is thinner and features waves, giving it a more active appearance, and then we have band removal.
A similar, quick release system on both bands allows for quick removal for improved cleaning and customization there’s. Also a nice feature on the fossil unit. Here you can see that we have the width of the band located on the band itself, that’s going to make shopping for a new band easier since you’ll know the spec. Next, we have the charge dock, the gen 5e charge. Dock comes in white, which is an odd contrast to the black color of the watch itself for size comparison. The gen, 5 e’s dock is significantly smaller than the moto 360s. You can also see that the gen 5e dock has more of a minimal design, whereas the moto 360s dock is a bit more futuristic. Although the moto 360s dock is larger, it makes it easier to mount to surfaces because of its size. Now both of these docks are magnetized, which means that the watch snaps securely into place on the dock. The gen 5e dock has the added benefit of allowing the watch to rotate on it due to its track design. So let’s talk specs both watches ship with the qualcomm snapdragon, wear 3100 processor and have one gigabyte of ram when it comes to internal storage. The gen 5e has four gigabytes and the moto 368. for battery. I couldn’t find the spec on the gen 5e. However, the moto 360 contains a 355 milliamp hour unit, so the gen 5e should be similar. Both watches also have a quick charge feature and reach 100.
In about 60 minutes, the moto 360 lasts a whole day, so the gen e should have similar battery performance. So let’s talk more about operation comparison between the two devices when it comes to system navigation, the moto 360 outperforms. Here again, we have that top button that acts as a scroll wheel and it’s just a more precise way to navigate options. Next, we have the built in speaker. The fossil gen 5e wins here since the moto 360 doesn’t have a speaker built in the speaker, proved useful for media alarms, ringtones and the google assistant what’s. The weather like in hawaii right now in honolulu, hawaii, it’s 74 degrees and mostly cloudy today, it’ll be cloudy with a forecasted high of 79 and a low of 70. when it comes to the built in mic. Performance is similar. The mic is great for tasks like creating a text by voice or asking google for information. Now both of these devices have a heart rate monitor, but software is slightly better on the fossil gen 5e. The added benefit of the gen 5e is you could tap the heart rate icon and get a reading within 10 seconds? Next, we have sleep tracking and the gen 5e wins here as well, because it’s more stable, another area of the fossil excels is with its four battery modes. These are presets for unique situations which can be helpful for maximizing features. Battery life or both along with the battery modes are also a tutorial and tips for maximizing battery.
So final thoughts in 2021, the gen 5e is a better watch. The gen 5e comes with more features, better functionality and similar specs at a lower price. However, i will say that the moto 360 has a more appealing, aesthetic and a slightly better system navigation due to its included two buttons, and it also has twice the amount of internal storage which could be useful, so that is it for today’s video.
