I was getting pretty frustrated with my new WearOS watch (the Fossil Watch Gen 5 for those curious) would just keep disconnecting from my Huawei P30 Pro. It connects during the setup process but then after a while, the watch will just say it’s disconnected even if the phone shows that it is absolutely connected via Bluetooth.

Samsung just launched the new Gear Sport and I got a little hands-on time with it and think I’ve figured it out at this point so here’s my complete walkthrough of the device for anyone curious. The watch is aimed at fitness (hence the Sport) and looks the part fitting somewhere between the bulkier smartwatches I’ve seen but not quite as slim and sleek as the analog watches I’d usually wear out.

Most wearables are worn on your wrist, but a few companies have dared to make the long journey down the hand to the finger. We’ve seen ones that can light up when you get a notification, ones that are essentially an NFC device but not ones that have the same type of sensors that fitness trackers usually do. Finally though, there’s Motiv. A very minimalistic looking metallic ring the deceivingly simple looking device can do more than you think.
