I've had both the TIcWatch 3 Ultra GPS and a Garmin Instinct Solar for the last 2 years. If there is no smart assistant anymore, which I barely used anyway, and you don't really use the voice calling function much, then it's the Garmin Instinct Solar series I'd pick every time. The newer Garmin Instinct series has the ability to produce unlimited battery power with sufficient sunlight exposure daily. I've been a smartwatch geek since my LG G Watch R, circa 2015, and the longer I analyze my use cases the more I realize that unless you are really serious about sports tracking then all you need is notifications. I you really are a fitness fanatic then you would probably better served by a Garmin Fenix or something by Coros or Suunto. As a Smart Home geek also, I'd be tempted back to Wear OS if the was better integration for tiles or widgets for smart home actions or routines, including those for Alexa. I know there are workaround, because I have implemented them, but they are clunky.
This one really shout features, the dual screen makes so much sense for some user who are for example exposed to high sunlight and also a great way to save battery, the price is still something i have struggle with, also i would like a better community connection,.i mean, for example I lost one of the buttons of my E3, the only way to get it if ordering a 3D print, same for other parts and accessories which looks like movboi just forgot to have available for the community on an affordable and easy way to get.
Seems like quite a big upgrade actually. Nice. Just wonder how Mobvoi's support of this watch will be, as I've been reading that many people are not happy lately with the company because of their support for the previous TicWatches, as they haven't received WearOS 3 yet.
As a Pro 3 Ultra user, yes, they have not delivered on Wear OS 3 promises. There was no communication about it up until about a month ago when they said the update was delayed due to tuning the dual displays with their custom chip. I like the hardware a lot so I personally don't mind as much but I can see why others would not be happy with this.
Same, the reason I got the Pro 3 Ultra was because it was promised to be future proofed. They promised Wear 3 & it had Google Assistant. Well, still no Wear 3 & Google Assistant was suddenly removed without my consent. So not only did they not update it, they actually downgraded it. Really makes me want to buy another Ticwatch.
What holds me back is the lack of updates and google assistant. Poor sensor quality. Basically its a one year watch then need to sell or pass on if no updates. This company needs to give prompt 4 year updates and support. And hopefully the sensors are better this time. Then it will get a huge fan base.
The power of the watch should mean they could provide updates for another few years if thry wanted to. I judt bought one in sandstone. The price is cheaper than both pixel and watch 5 pro and I think it looks better too.
Is there an option to use compass in essential mode? Please don't give me the answer without checking, because on the basis of that i am going to buy the watch Thanks
I hear ya on that, but it's not like Google sets the standard with updates. They've ruined their own credibility with how often they miss them and delay them. Pixel watch also doesn't have everything Google said it would.
Beautiful watch and good performance. But my ticwatch pro 3 stopped Wear Os 2.42 and security patches October 2021. How can I believe that one will be updated? And cost $349 to get a couple updates too sad.
I just don't get what so difficult for manufacturers to relay the Google assistant the same way you would through a Bluetooth headset.. I'm perfectly fine with my watch relying on the connection to my phone for that.
I had assistant on my pro 3 gps, Google removed it. I think it was a marketing move, they were having a hard time selling the pixel watch and took assistant away from competitors.
Does the watch gives info if it disconnects from the phone? For example I go to work but I forget my phone in my house, and it let me know if disconnected, so I can go back to my house. ?
does it handle whatsapp call notification properly? I'm about to get one but i heard that whatsapp call and various voip calls notifications won't show on tic watch, can you test it out?

@Pop-Up Card Maker Thank you. It was like that on the 3 pro I had a few years ago. When I saw him show the display options in the app I didn't see any options for it. Thought maybe they really want you to use that secondary display. Thanks again.
I am a die hard fan of Mobvoi's Tic watch series have owned every single one since it's inception, currently have the Pro Ultra 3 GPS and as much as I am trying to like this new Pro 5 watch I don't think it's going to sell well. There are various cues that make it look "cheaper" than prior versions. Button locations and style, The crown with that silly red circle and the band just spells cheap. I hope its performance merits its price point or it will have a hard time being sold.
So you will know they are totally inaccurate on everything😂 It never logs my sleep properly It tracks incorrect distances It's less useful than a Versa 2 Though you can put full voice navigation without the use of your phone on the Pro 3 It's just a bulky waste of money, Doesn't do anything other watches can't do Mine is just sat there collecting dust because it's useless😂 I'm wearing my versa 2 😎Which is more useful than the versa 4
I have about 5 android smart watches honestly they don't compare to Apple. The Samsung Tizen is probably the best for Android. Tic is cool but lack updates.
You shouldn't buy something based on a promise. I don't get why y'all are so mad. It's still a great watch that does what it is supposed to do. You're not missing that much from the OS3 update.
Google kill these watches by holding the wear OS3 update but this is still a great device I want the pixel to have most of these features or at least support these manufacturers that does google isnt listening to most users and have gutted fitbit and put out a Pixel watch disappointment we users of Android want simple reliable OS that will last for a week maybe they should allow solar charging on there watch with all the bells snd whistles health sensors that are accurate basically an applewatch that is we can personalize for our own liking. This is a good device google should pay attention and stop hurting there partners and give the customers what we want.
Will never buy anopther garbage Tic Watch. My Pro 3 GPS never got any updates past Oct 2021. No Wear OS 3 update as promised despite having the most capable processor on the market. Strava no longer supported due to missing Wear OS 3 update. Google Assistant broken, can't make calls or send messages. The power button has now failed and I've gone back to Samsung. Mobvoi will happily take your money and abandon it's customers. Worst smart watch company out there. They flood RUclipsrs with free product and paid endorsements to get you to buy their garbage product. My Galaxy Watch 5 works perfectly including Google Assistant and Strava.
Well, I'm tempted. Just bought my son a TicWatch 3 Pro and was impressed. I'll definitely take a closer look at this, thanks TK.

Mobvoi promised a Wear OS 3 update for 2022, and my TicWatch 3 Pro is still running Wear OS 2. I won't give them another chance.

This is great coverage I really love mobvoi and the ticwatch series they were mt first smart watch and the dual display is so nice!!!

This company needs to give prompt 4 year updates and support. And hopefully the sensors are better this time. Then it will get a huge fan base.
I'm loving this. Is there no ECG on this watch?
The power of the watch should mean they could provide updates for another few years if thry wanted to. I judt bought one in sandstone. The price is cheaper than both pixel and watch 5 pro and I think it looks better too.
It's time for tick watch to start using wireless charging because the pogo pins do wear overtime
Is there an option to use compass in essential mode?
Please don't give me the answer without checking, because on the basis of that i am going to buy the watch
Thanks
Are you planning on doing a comparison with the Samsung?
what is the name of that watchface and is it only exclusive for the TW5?
I don't think lack of any updates and making empty promises is what pixewatch should be.
I hear ya on that, but it's not like Google sets the standard with updates. They've ruined their own credibility with how often they miss them and delay them. Pixel watch also doesn't have everything Google said it would.
@@chadkuhns4386 Google also gimped the other manufacturers without ability for assistant.

Will facer app work with this for watch faces?
Does the watch gives info if it disconnects from the phone?
For example I go to work but I forget my phone in my house, and it let me know if disconnected, so I can go back to my house.
?
does it handle whatsapp call notification properly? I'm about to get one but i heard that whatsapp call and various voip calls notifications won't show on tic watch, can you test it out?
Won't forget that I paid 400 for a watch that never got the promised update. No more mobvoi for me
Very cool tk 😁

Please also share the video of it if possible
Thanks
Yes there is
@kingtendoable can you make a short video of it please?
does it also support LTE (E-Sim)?
This model does not. They might have again this year.
Does anyone know if you can still do the 'traditional' always on display? I didn't see it in the display menu for AOD.
Yes it does have the standard AOD, I've seen this covered by some reviewers. You have the option of picking which one you want.
@Pop-Up Card Maker Thank you. It was like that on the 3 pro I had a few years ago. When I saw him show the display options in the app I didn't see any options for it. Thought maybe they really want you to use that secondary display. Thanks again.
@@mattd1755 You're welcome. It is definitely there, I'm waiting for mine to arrive.
Improve a lot from the previous gen!
Does it have google assistant?

I disagree. I actually like how it looks very much.
So you will know they are totally inaccurate on everything😂
It never logs my sleep properly
It tracks incorrect distances
It's less useful than
a Versa 2
Though you can put full voice navigation without the use of your phone on the Pro 3
It's just a bulky waste of money, Doesn't do anything other watches can't do
Mine is just sat there collecting dust because it's useless😂 I'm wearing my versa 2 😎Which is more useful than the versa 4
@@niteblaster1this is not a versa 4, this is a ticwatch pro 5 🙄
Compatible with Iphone?
I'll stay with either Samsung or pixel
I have about 5 android smart watches honestly they don't compare to Apple. The Samsung Tizen is probably the best for Android. Tic is cool but lack updates.
WearOS device with no Google assistant! Hard pass. Also this watch needs to be able to connect to an external HRM.
Can I connect with my iPhone?
No only android
Want the most surprising smartwatch? Go carnivore
I would be interested to see the size of the watch compared to the pixel watch.
I wouldn't touch Ticwatch again absolutely useless with updates. The Pro 3 and Ultra still don't the WearOs update. Waste your money elsewhere.
You shouldn't buy something based on a promise. I don't get why y'all are so mad. It's still a great watch that does what it is supposed to do. You're not missing that much from the OS3 update.

👍👍👍👍👍👍
Their updates and customer support is terrible, they have been terrible for me for the past 2 years
Can you turn off that horrible 1970s screen saver watch screen? It is hedious. If so, how long will the battery last?
Ticwatch isn't accurate with anything, my pro 3
Is completely useless😂
My Fitbit Versa 2 is amazing, moisting money on this crap isn't a good idea😂
