Fossil: Different battery modes for other smartwatches

With the fifth generation of its own smartwatches, Fossil introduced new battery modes. These are now to be used on more models.

Within the CES 2020 learned Android Authority from Fossil that the battery modes that one with the The Carlyle HR and other fifth generation watches (we saw some of them on the IFA 2019) introduced other watches with a Snapdragon Wear 3100 One of these modes, for example, only shows the current time, which increases battery life dramatically. Another allows you to activate and deactivate certain sensors as desired. If you have a watch with the above-mentioned processor, you can find the update in the settings under System, About and software updates.

Smartwatches with Wear OS have unfortunately had the problem for a while now that the battery life is not great. So I think it's good that Fossil wants to put an end to this.
