# Fossil won't Update their Smartwatches to Wear OS!

Fossil official Executives Greg McKelvey & Steve Prokup stated in a conference with CNET that the [organization](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/100623/what-is-the-role-of-the-world-health-organization-in-global-health)'s enduring Wear OS [watches will not prepare](https://www.mindstick.com/news/394/new-amazfit-smartwatch-edition-launched) to upgrade to the modern linked Wear [software program](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/109544/how-to-replace-apple-watch-software-program) from Samsung & Google. Alternately, Fossil is intending a premium watch that Prokup stated would have “**pretty significant hardware upgrades,**” and surviving watches will be discounted as funds alternatives.

As per the reports, Fossil’s Gen 6 watch should have characteristics identical to the upcoming watches from Google & Samsung, with more active performance, greater [battery life](https://www.mindstick.com/interview/2325/how-can-an-operating-system-improve-battery-life-while-running-an-app), new chips, & LTE cellular decisions. “***All of the software [advantages](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/12841/5-advantages-of-customer-portal-you-didn-t-know-about) that Google’s communicating about & originating with the associated program is something we will be developing into that as well,***” McKelvey told.

Google [as well as](https://www.mindstick.com/interview/2481/can-you-write-a-java-class-that-could-be-used-both-as-an-applet-as-well-as-an-application) Samsung declared the [previous month](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/159363/how-to-write-sql-query-to-get-the-value-of-the-previous-month-and-year) at Google I/O that they would link Wear OS & Samsung’s Tizen into a fresh platform, producing one central smartwatch OS for Android.

The [Fossil codirects did not provide](https://www.mindstick.com/news/469/all-new-solar-watch-by-fossil-launched-in-india) enough insight into what buttons or crowns the business may use in its next Wear OS watch. ”***I believe you are however operating to witness a diversity of offerings beyond even [our products](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/view/84157/why-should-we-promote-our-products-on-the-mindstick-voice-platform), as great as manufacturers,***” Prokup announced in the interview, “***not so significant that you’re going to have a watch that settles up having four, five, six dedicated switches or no switch.***”
