Even with the Google/Fossil deal, Wear OS is doomed

It’s all being blown way out of proportion. The Fossil deal is not going to fix Wear OS. This is not the acquisition that will lead to a Pixel Watch. In reality, the deal was probably too small to really matter. Let’s pour some cold water on all this optimism. Wear OS is still doomed.

I wouldn’t call Wear OS “doomed” per se, but to say it’s not doing particularly well is a massive understatement.
