    The TicWatch Pro 5 is one of those watches that I think looks really cool, and that some people even comment on when they notice it basically has two different screens: one ultra-low powered one to extend battery life whilst still providing an always on display, and an AMOLED Display for when you actually use it. It’s very clever, but the actual performance of this watch in terms of health and sports tracking is not exactly what I had hoped for. Of course, you should judge yourself based on the data I will share in this video. We will test the heart rate tracking performance during different exercises like running, cycling and weight lifting, and we will also evaluate the sleep stage tracking and GPS consistency. Let’s get to it!
    Hello everyone! For those of you that are new to the channel, my name is Rob and I am a postdoctoral scientist specializing in biological data analysis. As you might know, I don’t like listing the specs of watches, for that you can check out the manufacturers website or some other reviewers. In this video I want to focus on independent testing, but first a quick disclosure: MobVoi did send me this watch for free, but I have no obligation to test it, and they did not get to influence or even see the video before release. With that out of the way, let’s get to the testing!
    Overall, I’d give the TicWatch Pro 5 between 2 and 2.5 out of 5 stars, but probably closer to 2 stars. Now, I am not sure if MobVoi will ever send me devices again to review, but this is my honest opinion. For the price, you can definitely get better devices. I would rather get a Forerunner 255 for instance if GPS and a good ecosystem was my focus, or if I was on iOS and I wanted a great smartwatch with great tracking, I’d get an Apple Watch SE. If I had a higher budget and I wanted just health tracking, I’d get an Oura Ring, and if I wanted a compromise between health and sports tracking, I like the Whoop Strap. Finally, for cheap and decent sleep stage tracking, I’d probably get a cheap Fitbit.

    It’s sad that the ticwatch isn’t accurate. But I did expect that considering that they market it more for its features as a smart device and less as a fitness tracker. Though even then, I was a bit surprised by the heart rate performance. I though that it would be more accurate than it is 😢

I tried doing a run with 2 watches tic watch and galaxy4 there was a difference of about 29 beats. This is a really good looking watch but if the health features suck nah. Plus the software support is bad, mobvoi says its an AI company.

    For the $$$ it's still hard to beat the Fitbit Charge 6 and Garmin Vivoactive 5 for the vast majority of those looking for a (Smartwatch) good/accurate way to track their everyday health. This is especially true for those on Android who want good battery life (7+ days). The Fitbit Charge 6 has been as low as $99 and Vivoactive 5 $249, wait for a sale or pay an extra $50 for each. Are there better...of course, but you're likely to get poor battery life and equal or much less accuracy...and pay more at the same time. For those living in the US (no Huawei) and on Android this is especially true.

    I ownder one of previus TickWatch pro. While it was good smart watch overall and customer service was supers. back then I stopped using it as sport watch. I same time Galaxy Watch 3 and one other watch. It simply calculated GPS distance and heart rate wrong. Far more than those two. When I tested it gave me far too low hear rate and far too big distance.I think TickWatch Pro should be seen as alternative smart watch to Galaxy and similar. In that sense its pretty good. But not as sport watch.
