Fossil Connected Accessories Now Available
Fossil today announced the Fossil Q line: a new line of connected accessories created in collaboration with Intel and includes two types of smartwatches (display and non-display) and two styles of connected bracelets (men's and women's). Acting as your fitness tracker, Fossil Q will cue you to be curious, cue you to be active and cue up notifications from the contacts and apps you care about.
The entire line is compatible with phones running Android 4.3 and higher, iPhone 5 and above, and connects via Bluetooth technology.
The app works with top fitness applications Google Fit, Health, UP by Jawbone and UA Record by Under Armour. They also come with a wireless charging base for stress-free recharging.
Specifically the Fossil Q line includes the following:
- Q Reveler: It is keeping track of how far you run, notifying you of only the people and apps you care about and daring you to explore more around you. Keep track of who's contacting you with a subtle nudge and color LEDs. Q Reveler will be available on October 25 and cost $125.
- Q Dreamer: A fitness tracker that looks like a bracelet. Choose a leather band for work and a silicone band while working out. It offers vibrating alerts and customized color notifications for key contacts and apps. Q Dreamer will be available on October 25 and cost $125.
- Q Grant: It looks like an ordinary watch, but under its face, it's talking to your smartphone, tracking fitness, listening for important messages and then alerting you to only the emails, texts, phone calls and app news. You can customize your key contacts with their own color, and when they contact you, you'll feel a vibration and see that color appear on right, left, or both LED indicators located on either side of the watch. Q Grant will be available on October 25 and cost from $175-$195.
