Kellen February 3, 2020

While we wait for Qualcomm and Google to figure out if Wear OS has a future and create technology to power it that isn't from 2015, we're still getting new watches from a small group of players. The biggest of those is the Fossil Group, who keeps releasing...

Montblanc Summit 2 Review: First 3100 Watch Change Anything?

Kellen October 30, 2018
