Don't let the worst Cyber Monday smartwatch deal entice you ...

Smartwatches are at a crossroads right now thanks to Wear OS 3 . Only a handful of existing watches will get the update in 2022, including the Fossil Gen 6 . Older watches will be stuck with Wear OS 2 and apps that devs won't bother to keep updating, crippling the experience. That's why companies are using Cyber Monday smartwatch deals to clear out outdated stock and package it as a huge steal for consumers. Exhibit A? This deal for $116 off the 2019 Fossil Gen 5 , bringing the price down to $179. That's a great deal! Except, well, it isn't. Thanks to its old Snapdragon Wear 3100 chip and 1GB of RAM, the Fossil Gen 5's performance is only middling, with apps taking too long to open and Google Assistant taking too long to respond. And although Wear OS 2 has gotten some new features and apps in 2021, that isn't likely to continue next year, when companies move all their focus to Wear OS 3. Not the deal you really want ... Fossil Gen 5 | $116 off $179 a
