smartwatches are alive and well and we got a good look at a bunch of them thanks to a meeting we had with Faso here at CES 2019 this is vodka now and I'm Joshua Vergara what's going on everybody and let's take a look at a bunch of new we're 2.0 watches that are coming out from the Faso group we'll start off with a few new smartwatches from Kate Spade this whole collection however is new in general and it's called the scallop 2 SmartWatch collection you have this scalloped design all around the top ring of the watch you'll also see that the bodies of the watches are smaller for the smaller wrists out there but of course as this is a Kate Spade collection they are made for women and that's one thing that's really looking great here on these Smart Watch is the fact that Smart Watch bodies are starting to get a lot slimmer and a lot smaller all around so they're much more accessible to a lot of people aside from the different types of watch bands that you can get including leather straps silicone straps and metal clasp watchbands you also get a couple of controls over on the side including a dial yes that's actually a dial so you don't really have to be swiping all over the place you can also roll that dial in order to get up and down the interface there's also another button that is made for shortcuts and aside from that you have where 2.0 which has gotten a really needed refresh out this past a year one that made it much better compared to what it was before when it used to be branded Android wear they do still use the Snapdragon wear 2100 processor and they have the 300 million power battery that should hopefully give you up to two days of battery life another great feature for these Kate's based smartwatches is a new micro app that is built into the where OS operating system of each watch it's called the choose your own basically it is an interface that asks you what color many different parts of your wardrobe might be and it will cater a watch face to the type of wardrobe you might have with your Kate Spade SmartWatch it's a nice way of actually matching all of your accessories to your clothing and it's great to see that technology is starting to bridge that gap between it fashion and lifestyle if you're looking for the Snapdragon wear 3100 there is only one watch that is available or actually was available during our demo and that would be the fossil sport now the fossil sport may not actually be new for 2019 for CES 2019 rather but we are taking a look at it for the first time here and I gotta say I can't wait to actually get my hands or rather to get this watch around my wrist and use it on the daily because it feels like this is the SmartWatch where OS has been needing fashion and all the features aside the fossil sport is just an incredibly light SmartWatch and it's something that surprises you at first where the body is actually quite minimalist even though there are so many different colors of the watch body and of the watch straps it's just a simple circle with again the two buttons that flanked the dial in the middle where OS 2.0 is still a bit new to me but I really enjoy how it looked on this particular screen just swiping up down left right depending on what elements I actually wanted to see and with that in mind all of the different features you would expect from where OS 2.0 are working really well on the fossil support you still get the NFC payments on the go you also get Google assistance and it all looks really great on this minimalistic sports SmartWatch this is also a swim proof watch so you can actually get into the pool with these and maybe do some watersports and it's also going to have the IP certifications needed to brave the elements I'll say it one more time what is really surprising about the fossil sport now that I've gotten a look at it is the fact that it is that light it's easy to forget that this would be on your wrist and I think that on the daily it's one of those watches that you wouldn't realize you're wearing until you actually have to charge it and with Snapdragon wear 3100 you should have to charge it a little bit less we will have to test that out when we finally get a fossil sport on our own wrists so you can look forward to that and more from CES 2019 from us here at pocket now keep it tuned here and drop us some lifes on these videos don't forget to get into the comment sections and let us know what you think about the future of smartwatches especially when companies like the Faso grip are really putting out some great new additions thank you so much for watching our coverage so far of CES 2019 and look forward to our next video
