Razer, the company known for making gaming products, has partnered with smartwatch maker Fossil to launch a special edition smartwatch which has been announced at the ongoing CES 2022.
The two companies together have announced the Razer x Fossil Gen 6 smartwatch at CES 2022. As you would expect from the device’s name, this is a themed version of the existing smartwatch running Wear OS.
This new smartwatch comes with Razer-themed green and black colored straps and packs three themed watch faces included in the software — Chroma, Text, and Analog.
Unlike the original Fossil Gen 6 smartwatch which is offered in two different sizes — 42mm and 44mm, this new version made with Razer is offered only in a single 44mm size and packs some unique interface elements.
As for the software, the device is running Google’s Wear OS 2 but similar to the original Fossil watch, there are plans to upgrade it to Wear OS 3 sometime later this year. Under the hood, it comes powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon Wear 4100 Plus chipset.
Other features on the wearable device include GPS, a heart rate sensor, an Sp02 blood oxygen sensor, and Bluetooth 5.0 LE connectivity. It will also get support for Amazon’s Alexa voice assistant.
This is a limited edition release and the two companies will only sell 1,337 units of this special edition smartwatch. It is priced at $329, a bit higher than the original product, and is set to be available for purchase from next week.
