The Fossil Q Control has a circular face with 45 mm diameter. The straps are silicone and are removable, making the watch compatible with standard 20mm straps. RAM is 768 MB, while the internal memory is 4 GB. The device also has 5 ATM water resistance rating, making it suitable for swimming.
Android Wear 2.0 makes the Q Control compatible with operating systems newer than Android 4.3 or iOS 9. The connection with the phone is through Bluetooth 4.1, but there’s no Wi-Fi support.

On the back of the circular body a heart rate sensor is placed next to the four metallic charging pins. The watch has a small LED light and a microphone for talking to Google Assistant and making calls.
Fossil also implemented touch-sensitive bezel that allows scrolling through the options on Android Wear 2.0 similarly to the Gear S series by Samsung.
Fossil has put up the Q Control Gen 3 Sport smartwatch on its website for sale. The price is $275 with free shipping in the US.

Yes, the watch does have a wi-fi feature. I got it yesterday and it is awesome. It is really cool and I am still exploring it more. The different dial options to change are really nice and has loads of features... So far, quite satisfied with the pro...

You guys got it wrong. It has WiFi. Plus it has direct access to the play store on both Android and iOS smartphones. I called Fossil, so you reported it wrong.
