Fossil Enters India's Wearable Market With Q Series and Misfit Ray
American luxury watchmaker Fossil has entered the wearable market in India, bringing in the Misfit Shine 2 and Ray, and its Q line-up of smartwatches among other products.
Both the Misfit products are capable of automatically tracking steps, distance, calories, and sleep. They can also provide alerts for calls and messages, and come with a smart button equipped for home automation. To add to that, the wearables are swimproof – unlike most Fitbit devices – though they lack a display entirely. That does mean the battery can last for up to 6 months, though.
The major caveat for some could be that the Shine 2 originally launched back in October 2015 and the Ray was announced in January 2016. Pricing wise, you’re looking at Rs. 7,495 for the cheapest version of the two. Shine 2 is available in Carbon Black and Rose Gold colour variants, and the Ray comes in Carbon Black, Rose Gold, Navy, Forest, Stainless Steel, and Stainless Steel Gold with either a sport or leather band.
As for Fossil’s own Q line-up, there are two options: the Q Wander and the Q Marshal. Both are IP67 water resistant, offer interchangeable straps (leather or metal) and are powered by Android Wear, and hence offer the same functionality. You can respond to messages using the screen, and even listen to music or receive navigation alerts using the built-in microphone and speaker.
Fossil promises a battery life of 24 hours, based on usage, and you can get 80 percent charge in less than 2 hours. The two smartwatches are priced between Rs. 21,995 to Rs. 22,595. They went up for pre-order in India last week.
The other products Fossil announced at the event include smartwatches with the brand name of Michael Kors, Skagen, Emporio Armani, and Chaps – all of which have been licensed by Fossil
