    Just wanted to report back. I went for my first long roll with the Ticwatch e3 today, and it performed like a champ in terms of the battery. I had a full tank at the start, and was only down to 53% after 3 + hours. So it definitely passed that test.

    Wow ! Best all-round review of this watch I have come across. Most reviewers will talk about the functions but not really test the functions comparatively, as you have. For that you get a subscribe, thumbs up, and alert notification on. Also, as an update to your review and final thoughts, they plan to upgrade the wear-os to the latest for this watch in the third quarter of 2023. So the support is still there. Great job !👍👍

    I'm glad I found this video! I ordered this watch, but then I started hearing bad things about the battery life. I usually go out rolling in my wheelchair for 3 hours to exercise, so if it loses 12% per hour, that's not fantastic, but it at least means it'll get through a full roll without dying. :)

    Greetings from Rwanda! Great review! I've recently switched from iPhone to Android so I'm looking for a watch to replace my Apple Watch Series 4. I'm pretty much sold on the E3, but I'm hoping you can clarify something you mention in this review. You said that you can download Spotify music directly on to the watch. Can you confirm if this is true? I've been told it can only be used as a remote for your phone. Not a dealbreaker, but I'd like to know for sure. Thanks for the great information. Your review is pretty much the one that solidified my decision!

    Hello, I am using a Pixel4 mobile phone. I originally wanted to buy a GW4, but I just read your review and feel that its GPS accuracy does not seem to be very good.

      That's my take. The hardware of the Galaxy Watch 4 is nicer and it offers a few unique features like the bioimpedence sensor.

    I have had one of these for a week now and for me the step accuracy is super innacurate. I don't know if thats just normal from something on your wrist but I'm waking up with over 11000 steps every day and I definitely am not moving around that much ! Also, the heart rate display on the main screen doesn't seem to refresh that often. I'll be sitting down relaxing and it will say my heart rate is at 100bpm. When I check ticpulse it scans for a while and then suddenly drops down to 65. I see so many good reviews I feel like mine must be defective

    • @ChaseTheSummit

      I've noticed the step tracking on all of the TicWatch offerings to be a little generous as well. In reality though it's just to give you an idea of how active you were compared to other days... and for that purpose it still works. It's just not great if you're comparing it to other devices.

They will make you start a ticket and then offer you 20% off a new device if that doesnt work for you they will make a final offer of a 50% discount. Buyer beware! Was a big fan of their products and did plenty of research before I purchased. However what good is a product that can't be repaired.

      Thanks for sharing your experience. That's unfortunate but not too surprising in todays climate. Repairing tech devices is more costly than outright replacing them at a discount. Even brands like Garmin typically offer a discount on a replacement after the warranty expires but it's all in how they handle it. Hopefully you have better luck in the future.

    The watch is absolutely worthless. It does nothing needed for a watch to track fitness. The stride length is inaccurate and the steps are inaccurate. This has been a probem for teh last year and no fix yet. Better off buying a Coros Pace 2

      Thanks for sharing. I think it depends what you're looking for in a watch. If you want a sport watch the Pace 2 is certainly a better option but the Pace 2 is also lacking in the "smartwatch" department.

      @@ChaseTheSummit Thank you for your response. I have many watches and can never find the right one. The Apple watch is a great smartwatch but the battery life is horrible. I need to charge every time I workout so the watch is on the charger three times a day. I have all the Garmins but they have been having many update problems. The new glances do not always read the data. I have all the Coros watches and they last forever and very accurate. I keep trying by buying a new watch each week.
      I have to tell you I love your reviews. I trust you and you do a beautiful job at the reviews. Thank you for many hours of entertainment

    Stay away from salt water with all of these watches as salt water doesn't mix well with electronics
