For the first time ever there's a smartwatch with the brand new Qualcomm Snapdragon 4100. And it delivers amazing features - a truly admirable health-tracking framework.
The Ticwatch Pro 3 is the best Ticwatch device ever, and likely - the best Wear OS-based device released until this moment (September 2020).
In this video you're going to find (almost) everything that the Ticwatch Pro 3 can do at the time of its official release. There seem to be some more improvements scheduled via updates in the coming months.

The best ticwatch pro 3 review iv watched and iv watched a few!! Thanks for taking the time to make this.
Wow, thanks!
You deserve a subscribe and likes all the way. You know why? Following up the comments and respect the viewers. Good job. Wish I watched this video before I purchased the watch like 20 minutes ago but luckily no regrets haha
Thanks for the sub! And I'm very happy that you read between the lines. Wishing you all the best, my friend!
Really appreciate how much time you have spent to make this video for us and watch for free. Just subscribed after watching your first video. Thank you!
Wow, Aslam - it is remarkable that you pay attention to such details like how much time I've spent on that. Honestly - for this particular video I can tell a long story... But really happy it had eventually a happy end. 😉
@@TechMishka i did to
Fantastic review 👍. Great vocie, easy and smooth to listen to. I'm waiting for my ticwatch pro 3 😁
Thanks mate! I so much hope you will like it a lot!
Love the chart u add with specs of the best smartwatches u have actually tested. when u say SD4100 is great then how does it stand against other chipsets! great review as always.
Thanks for the kind words and a very good question!
I rather dislike the 2100 and 3100 series because they are based on older technologies. Perhaps the only chipsets worth comparing to the 4100 are those used in Galaxy Watch series and Apple watch series.
@@TechMishka in that case, how would you say it compares to chipsets used in Galaxy watches?
One day battery life is the reason some brands ditched WearOS and pursue with own battery efficient OS
Same reason for me to like the Watch GT series that much...
And every single one of those OS was terrible. Good battery life, shitty everything else.
@@mikesnapper9001 completely agreed.. I tied watch gt it has a great battery life yes but nothing else it's really just a great fitness watch nothing more !!
@@vikasgouda9417 just try it, you'll never go back. Without worrying battery life for 1 week+ is the best feeling. Recommend GT2 for speaker calls function
@@123looneygan ya agreed I used it for 6months before selling it .. no support 3rd party apps or watch faces and not able to reply to notifications was a bummer for me .
Everything else was good
Great presentation skills, very in-depth and enjoyable review, thanks for that!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I owned the first ticwatch pro for about a year. Was a okay, but then an OS update dropped and the watch became basically unusable due to lag so I sent it back and even got fully refunded. If they play their cards right I'ma grab this on day one.
Refund after a year! Wow!
And true, the lag was annoying...
@@TechMishka Yeah that was incredible customer service. Already ordered the gen 3. Can't wait for it to get here.
Basically I wanted combination of Suunto 7 and Garmin Fenix 6. Bought Ticwatch Pro 3 yesterday and I have all I have ever wanted. Real smartwatch (faces, open system, apps, great colors from AMOLED, reply option on watch...) with all that measuring and battery life of Garmin F6 devices. Finally someone made the whole package.
Makes me happy to read your comment because I feel the same way too!
Great review! Planning on getting this one. Greetings from Croatia
Wow, almost neighbors 😉 Warmest regards to Croatia!
Thanks for the great review. This watch with an eSIM would be a dream. But I might get it anyway.
I thought same thing but every connected watch I've owned I don't leave my phone behind unless I want to track only my health data and disconnect from my phone's notifications.
Thanks for watching! And who knows - maybe there will be LTE edition eventually...
There is an LTE version.
@@hgallegos915 not the same watch. It performs better than OG yes but still a very old 2100 CPU.
@@busixb nope, it has pretty much the same specs but has ESIM support
As user of the original Tic Watch Pro ... I bought this blind.. seems I did good...
If you liked the first generation, you're going to like this one way more 😉
@@TechMishka I am waiting for the delivery... I loved the first one.. my favorite smartwatch once Pebble disappeared..
Wonderful review, and channel! New subscriber here :) The watch looks amazing.. The only things that have me torn between purchasing this, and the Samsung.. Are the sensors (apparently the Samsung's latest offering has multiple rear sensors, far superior to other smart watches, thus better health data tracking?), and the screen.. It looks great here.. But some have said that due to the dual layered screen, it's not as vibrant. Anyway, great review, looking forward to watching your channel grow :)
Hey John, thanks a lot for the comment!
I like the Ticwatch Pro 3 colors a lot more than the Galaxy Watch 3 colors; Samsung tend to oversaturate their displays anyways. But indeed - the Watch 3 has some more sensors, including blood pressure. Sadly supported only with Samsung phones.
Thanks a lot for the encouraging comments!
Looks like it's time to upgrade from the OG Ticwatch Pro 😊
Maybe... 😇
Поздрави от България! ❤
Благодаря, Вожде!
as soon as you said their is no blood pressure, I got an ad of another watch with that feature, lol.
Which watch has blood pressure checking on it?
Probably Samsung 😎
Haha, that's nasty!
Yesterday a friend of mine gave me LED strip with Alexa controller and while I haven't searched anything online, guess what kind of ads I am getting now in Facebook... 😎
Asus Watch has blood pressure measure
Great review! I have a question regarding "vibration" during phone calls. (Yes I still use my smartphone as a phone too) I like to have my phone muted, and just have my watch vibrate when my phone rings for calls. My current smartwatch (Huawei Watch v1) vibrates so loud that literally everyone in the room can hear it. I'd like my next watch to have a great quality 'haptic vibration' so that only I can feel the vibration rather than have everyone hear it. A loud vibration would be a deal breaker for me. Can you share any experience regarding this please? Thx.
The vibration is rather gentle. But could be that I like it and you don't.
If you send me a reminding email, I can setup a short recording with the watch ringing, if you believe this would help.
@@TechMishka OMG, you are so generous with the offer, and I'd be silly not to take you up on it. :) I subbed and sent the reminder email. Thx so much!
Saw the email, thanks mate. Not sur if I can make it before Monday - will do my best.
I'm also wondering about vibration alert of this watch too. Especially, if you compare with Galaxy Watch series, which one is powerful ?? Another question; is there any disconnection alert like galaxy watches ??
@@TechMishka no worries, I appreciate it at any time.
Your video is a nice introduction to the Pro 3 and walk through of the features, but since you have used it for 10 days I expected a little more test data. For example, how long did it last you between recharges? I like the 40% larger battery capacity, the 4100 processor, the LCD screen working in sports mode. Your demos of the voice recording and sleep features are interesting. However, it is somewhat unclear "...decent sleeptracking, maybe the best I've seen until now." Compared to what?
As for the sleep tracking - compared to the rest of the devices tested on the channel. I believe the GT2 is among the best of them.
As for examples - there's a part showing the battery consumption in Wear OS app - it is showing the 2 days and a half cycle.
If the battery lasts for 5 days (actual), they might have finally sold it to me.
You can use the essential mode 😆 Now - seriously - same here. I'd love to see two more days...
@@TechMishka Essential mode = a basic freaking watch with step tracking. Not sure why people thinks that's such a great thing. What good is a $300 'smart'watch that doesn't take calls or texts?
If a step counter is all you care about then buy a cheap pedometer and save yourself $290.
Maybe in airplane mode
@@JMule There are watches that cost millions of dollars and only show time, not even date or steps. what is your point?
@@JMule if you couldn't get your phone charged for a few days you will be glad it at least tells you the time
It looks amazing 😍
It does!
Great review!💯💯 Thanks, and I'll take the watch when you're done with it!😜😜
Sounds like a plan!
It's still looking like the best watch of 2021
Yeah. Might get even better soon enough.
Yesss amazing watch totally awesome. Sorry we haven't been able to visit you for the last few weeks we have been in Bulgaria filming. But great to catch up with you. Thanks so much for sharing this. Looks very cool.. Might have to invest. Huge thumbs up. Stay safe and catch up again real soon.
Wait, wait, wait... You've been on Bulgaria filming and didn't call? Make sure next time to let me know and grab a beer or something 😎
@@TechMishka Wait Wait Wait? lol a channel as huge as you have made a connection to a mere channel as small as us? OH MY GOSH, how exciting. thank you so much for leaving us a comment. Damn, we would have loved to meet up with you for a beer or two. looks like you will just have to visit the UK lol. and we'll have several then haha. Have a great day my friend. Once again thanks so much Kind Regards, Love and Light and God Bless Sarah and Glenn
And what were u filming and where?
Great detailed review!
May I know how long does the battery life last if the AMOLED screen always on display is activated (instead of using the low powered screen). Thanks 👍
Hey Tee - very good question; I've had between 1.5 and 2 days with nights being off.
The Ticwatch Pro 3 seems to be designed to mostly rely on the power-saving screen for offloading the need of ALways-On. The Snapdragon 4100+ has additional separate part that is responsible for power-saving always-on mode, which will likely appear with some other Wear OS smartwatches this year.
@@TechMishka Too bad upcoming TicWatch 3 pro LTE will have 4100 (not 4100+) as well. That'd be perfect match.
Nice review - I am looking forward to this watch going on Sale :) well - maybe - I've had previous versions of Tic Watch, Tic Watch Pro , but it was fairly unusable so had to return it - but have always wanted the TicWatch with WearOS - and this might just be the one!
In fact I also have returned some Ticwatches in my life - the TicWatch Pro and the E2.
Hopefully Amazon Prime Day will offer some good discounts.
Thanks for a great video
Most welcome, Dan! Was pleasure "seeing" you during the premiere time.
Simply awesome. Great video once again.👍😊
Thank you! Cheers!
Great overview! Just bought it but worried it might be too big for my wrist. What wrist size are you so I can get a sense of proportion. Thanks and keep up the great work!
Thanks Tim. Based on previous experience - I believe Ticwatch have a good return service, so if you don't like it - you can always send it back.
This looks sooo good but did they really still leave out a rotating crown?? The last TicWatch teased it with nurling on the top button; alas did nothing. I thought surely they’d include it this time being a Pro Watch! Sometimes a touch screen doesn’t work (gloves, wet fingers, don’t want to obscure the screen). PLEASE TicWatch, include this useful hardware navigation option in the next TicWatch Pro so I can finally buy one of these beauties!
Nah, it still is only with Samsung....
How long does the battery last with GPS tracking on (like when you're running, riding a bike etc.)?
i would be interested in that fact, too.
Haven't tried that on long running courses. It should last long enough considering the battery inside and the power saving display. Will likely try some biking this weekend, fingers crossed for good weather.
Great review! I just order mine after watching it. Just a question does the Movie app syncs with google fit? Thanks.
The watch has Google FIt integration, so yeah - you will be able to keep record of the data that you need.
Now I hate you! you knew that was coming when I commented about the Fossil Gen5 I use on the galaxy watch video right? LOL!
Great video and this watch seems much better than my Fossil, I've got to say though that I still have hard time justifying those prices for those smartwatches.
I'll see maybe in a few months I can earn enough from RUclips revenue to review it as well maybe.
BTW, Google did say there's a big update coming soon so hopefully it will get good improvements.
Oh and the last update of the Fossil did bring awesome sleep tracking but I feel like it hit the battery somewhat
Guilty as changed 😇
That's great news about the sleep tracking - wearOS should finally start doing that properly. And you are right - $400, even $300 sound like a crazy amount for a smartwatch. Few years ago there were flagship killers at that price...
@@TechMishka I guess I can somewhat justify such a price if the smartwatch can at least run fully (without some second screen or saving mode) for about a week, but for now I'll only buy such things on high discounts (my Fossil ended up costing me about 130~ USD) or if it's sponsored/earned by RUclips revenue I guess.
But I wonder, in the past people said that the added software on the Ticwatch is consuming lots of battery and wasn't that great in the past, what would happen if you will turn of (It's done via ADB) any of it's software and only use basic wear os software? guess it can last even longer though it seems that their software has improved so much that such a move won't be smart I guess.
Same system of wear os same results. We need the updated of google
Well - we do need updates from Google - that's true. But getting close to 3 days per cycle is not at all bad especially having so many good health tracking features now.
@@TechMishka U are awesome, nice video :)
Oooi
@@TechMishka qh+]]]/ň hybrid a
What do you even mean, this is really not the same result as older WearOS watches
Does it support Spotify or any music app? If so, can it download music for offline use? Thanks! Great vid btw 🔥🔥🔥
Yeah, supports spotify and most similar services. No offline playback possible however.
You need to take your phone with you for a run. It's pointless
Nice one buddy!
What about the daytime sleep tracking? Can the tic watch track your sleep through the day? Something rather impossible with amazfit watches.
Yes - I believe such a part is even shown on the video; If not - I was planning to and might have forgotten. But yeah - very, very accurate sleep tracking. Watch GT2 grade 😇
I’ll be honest, when citing all the good points of this watch, I am just reminded about how ahead of its time the Huawei Watch 2 was...three days battery life, excellent sleep tracking, simple mode for when battery low...and all this on Snapdragon 2100 and 765MB RAM. Only missing new health tracking stuff life oximeter and stress...so still no need for me to upgrade, really
Yeah, true that. In fact even the first generation of Huawei Watch was remarkable and still very relevant.
0:43 I'm afraid you shouldn't add sound effects to parts of the video where clarity of the audio is crucial.
Yup - had to mute them and forgot...
@@TechMishka Honest! Impressive. More of the people on YT just don't care to reply to such comments.
Good job!
Any detailed accuracy review for HR, cadence, pace, speed measurement during running/walk exercise? Some brands only beautiful, but useless... as they are not perform well measuring those basics information..
Haven't seen a watch with GPS in the past years that shows inaccurate data when running. This one is fine; I mnostly tested with a bike - and is good.
Fantastic review and get rithm good little Humor. Well done worth subscribing looking forward for what's next
Welcome aboard!
I'm convinced just waiting for it to go on sale.
Let's hope there will be a sale in the coming weeks.
@@TechMishka I'm seeing it being sold now for 780$. 😐
I've never seen it go on sale yet
@@kramdens1967 doesn't matter I have a oneplus phone and I bought thier watch.
Great review. Which smartphone are you using in this video?
Thanks Florian!
It's the Oneplus 8 Pro.
Excellente review. Unfortunately I could not see anything about Sun/Moon rise/set and Tide times (if any). That would be great for fishermen but those reviews always focus on hearth/fitness/sleep and things like that
There definitely are bunch of apps that will let you monitor this.
Great review cover what I want to know this product thanks Mike
Glad it was helpful!, Aek
Отново страхотно ревю. Респект!
Ехее, много ми е драго да виждам, че отново гледаш. 😇
The only major negative I see is the poor water resistance rating... It's fine in the tub, or getting caught out in the rain or the shower... But not really intended to swimming in deeper water or anything like that...
True that!
Get it from Amazon if you can. I ordered directly from the TickWatch sight 3 days ago, got an order confirmation, a paid confirmation and a 5% discount by "joining" their sight. Honey also saved me another $15.00. But I have received nothing but automated responses to my inquiries about when they may ship it out. So, being used too ( and spoiled by) Amazons customer service, I am feeling a bit let down by their lack of responding to me, even though they DID take the money PDQ. I should have just bought it from Amazon. I'm REALLY hoping it's as good as all the reviews say it is. But at this point, I just want to know when they are even going to get it sent out.....
Oh, that's annoying. Likely there are more orders than what they are ready to handle. You can always try cancelling your order, but then the coupon codes won't work on Amazon...
@@TechMishka You are correct. The delay between China and the USA is a bit longer than calling/emailing Amazon. I think Amazon spoiled me for anything else. But again yes, they won't even have a supply ready to send out until the 16th. They did offer me a full refund it I didn't want to wait, but I really want this watch. They were VERY helpful and sincerely apologetic. Pretty sure they weren't quite ready for the massive orders they received. Still can't wait to get it!!
Hello! Thanks for the video, it's very informative 😊 how does this compare to the ticwatch c2+? I'm new to the smart watch world and I use a google pixel 3 XL so I like that these keep within the same ecosystem
Yeah, makes sense!
The C2+ has in my opinion nicer design and looks more stylish. Doesn't have a speaker and is not so advanced about fitness tracking. But is a great one too.
Im cannot wait this wear os watch to come to my hometown because i want it
Let's hope it will happen very soon!
I just ordered this watch I can't wait
Let's hope it will soon be there!
@@TechMishka i just got it yesterday and its amazing! I like it alot more that my galaxy watch 3...
Nice video. What about GPS accuracy? Could you compare with Amazfit T-Rex or any Garmin product?
It is very well accurate. Much more accurate than most Amazfit watches. Almost up to par with Garmin.
Would you recommend this or the Samsung Watch3?
Tough choice. I can recommend both.
@@TechMishka I have Galaxy S20+ and am unable to decide between this and Samsung watch 3. Both watches are comparable in prices today with Samsung's ongoing deals. This one has newer processor and better battery life. Galaxy watch 3 would seamlessly work with S20 phone. Thanks for the review but I am still undecided.
I love this reviw but what is the better tic 3 this watch or sumsung watch 3
Really depends on which OS you like better. The Samsung Watch 3 feels more premium, but in terms of OS I enjoy the Ticwatch more.
Sounds perfect. I'd also like to know if it supports Spotify and offline as well.
Spotify have recently stated that it's close to impossible to enable offline mode on WearOS. Right now only online is available.
@@TechMishka what about youtube music?
love my ticwatch pro but I have to say I am tempted to upgrade
It is indeed a serious upgrade. The older Pro still rocks though 😎
Nice video. So, you can activate a sports mode and it will be visible on the low powered screen in real time? That's seems to be what others are saying. Can you customize what appears on the LCD screen in a workout?
Yes, correct. There are no customizations about the low-power screen yet, but I hope there will be some options coming soon.
@@TechMishka Nice. Thanks!
It still has the black ring around the screen!!! Omg. How did the Huawei Watch not have one like a million years ago?? I still have one; my daily since launch day. Can't find a replacement I like.
That's why the Huawei watch is sort of iconic... 😎
Thank you for this
My pleasure!
Nice review!
Glad you enjoyed it
Very good review.I like the watch,it looks like excellent choice to save some money, comparing price with Samsung or Apple.But,as a former user,I am skeptical about Wear OS stability.
Stability of Wear OS is great, question is whether Google have a good plan how to improve it. The watch is indeed excellent.
Ticwatch Pro 1st gen failed me so badly. I am not sure if I will buy another Ticwatch product.
Have you tried any other WearOS device? And what's the pard you disliked the most?
I find the dual screen arrangement a bit strange. FSTN relies on reflected light, whereas AMOLED makes it's own light and only needs a dark background to produce blacks. Based on this (and the fact that AMOLED by default is transparent) the FSTN layer should be below the AMOLED and should have a highly reflective layer under it, and when the AMOLED is active the FSTC could be switched to all-black creating the black background for the AMOLED. This would make the FSTN even more visible without compromising the AMOLED image. As it is now the FSTN is about 10-15% reflective at most, whereas it could easily be 40% (like on your old CASIO from 1985).
The other thing I'd like to see next is a high-resolution FSTN display that can show the full fat watchface without consuming too much battery life. By high resolution I mean somethin in the range of 180x180 or 240x240, not super-detailed but also no need to adapt the normal watchface for a different resolution, just draw at quater-res.
Another alternative could be an e-ink or a Sharp memory LCD instead of FSTN, both are available in round formfactor and high resolution, e-ink would be the best although it's a bit thick so could make the watch a fraction thicker or take up some of the space meant for the battery. On the other hand with a highly detailed zero-power e-ink secondary layer the battery life almost becomes a non-issue.
Yeah, I thought a lot about that as well. In fact - the FSTN seems to be a little worse than the previous generation, but still well visible. Good to see that sports are finally shown on that display.
Looking forward to the Amazfit GTR 2 review when it comes out.
Haha, me too! 😆
Great review.
Did you try to use spotify offline? That's the only feature to complete the wishlist (:
Previously they only allowed Google music to download to a wearos watch. I've just checked for RUclips music app on wearos store(Google music is discontinuing) but there isn't one. It looks like for now you have to have a Samsung watch to download Spotify music to your watch. It's really poor from google
@@A1000R thanks Andrew, that's really unfortunate. After so many years wear os still has this issue with spotify
You have enough space to store some music of your choice. True - not exactly spotify, but is a good option.
@@TechMishka do you mean playing an mp3(or other music file format)? what app do I download to get this magic to work. I have some music from years ago I could dig out that's still golden. I just didn't use it since Spotify
Are there e-sim version coming later?
I don't know that yet... The Ticwatch 4G has arrived at later stage, so there always is hope.
hi. nobody talks about the kind of glass the display has... which one is it, "normal" glass, Gorilla Glass DX (Samsung Watch 3), Sapphire Glass (which I doubt)...??? It's kind of important, besides all the features you praised in this video, don't you think...? Since it's the first thing which is going to be scratched on a watch... Looking forward to any answers, thnx.
The glass isn't marked as Gorilla, and it is not sapphire.
Simple example: Huawei Watch GT 2 is not advertised as "Gorilla Glass"-certified and has regular tempered glass. 4-5 months of usage and no scratches; Galaxy Watch 2 Active - the fancy Gorilla coverage - and I got a scratch for less than a week;
The Ticwatch Pro 3 likely has tempered glass coverage which has similar to the Gorilla Glass qualities.
@@TechMishka Thanks!
Which one would you prefer the Huawei gt2 pro or the ticwatch?
I wear both watches. If battery life is priority - the GT2 Pro. If smartness - the Ticwatch 3 is the winner.
Good old T9 keyboard would fit these watches perfect
Yeaaaah! 😎👍
If Samsung just got their act together and put a decent battery in their devices I would have bought a galaxy watch, but I bought this instead because I want it to last at least a couple days between charges.
Let's wait for a few weeks and see what the Galaxy Watch 4 has to offer.
@@TechMishka I may be wrong but I think I already read somewhere that they weren't improving the battery life... which sucks.
@@ukguy Yeah...
Please, can I listen to music on it (with internal storage) offline? Will I be able to put a bluetoth phone on it to listen to music off / on? Thankful.
Yes, both of these will work fine.
@@TechMishka thanks
REQUEST: Can you review a Wear OS Smartwatch that uses other processor . Hoping for your kind consideration . I'm a new subscriber . Thanks .
Thanks for the sub!
Right now WearOS devices all seem to use Qualcomms SoC.
There is an Android watch with different hardware which I've reviewed and the video should come up tomorrow.
There looked to be a few accidental/not recognised swipe or touches. I expected a bit more smoothness with new chip and software.
Andrew, keep in mind that I have a medical condition on my skin - it is sometimes dry and some touch screens don't like that. The responsiveness was excellent all the time and up to par with my phone.
@@TechMishka thanks for your feedback
Ticwatch pro 3 or Huawei GT Pro 2???
GT2 Pro has better design and quality build and great battery life. The Ticwatch Pro 3 is a lot smarter than it.
Now I know which watch to buy
There we go! 😎
Great info
Glad it was helpful!
Do a comparison video about Huawei GT2 pro, Honor GS pro and Ticwatch pro 3
Will see if I can fit it in the schedule. Thanks for the suggestion!
Hello, Michael. I like your great review. I see you got your TicWatch's TN screen to display time in 24 hour mode. Is it possible to have it display the date in a European format? It would be a 'game breaker' for me if it cannot.
Oops! Sorry about misspelling your name, which I discovered after clicking on the #tech4all link.
Hey, no problem about the name - it's easier to use Michael, that's why I present myself with that one.
As for the display date - currently no way to change it, but if you file a request with Ticwatch support, they may implement that via firmware update.
@@TechMishka Hi. I have now found a mobvoi forum page for " TicWatch Pro 3 Software Improvements " and the date format has already been requested. The page is at
forum.mobvoi.com/viewtopic.php?t=56852#p73381
Good review but has errors in given specs at 3:50. Battery is 577mAh and watch uses Bluetooth 4.2.
I believe the 577mAh was the minimum capacity, or I'm wrong? Will check on that.
Just checked on Mobvoi.com:
Battery capacity
Minimum: 577mAh
Nominal: 595mAh
There's no info about Bluetooth, but the 4100 chipsets should be with v 5.
Ticwatch pro 3 or Huawei gt 2 pro. I have the Huawei, but cant find a way to sync all data ...reliably to google fit. I guess the Ticwatch will do this no problem being Android wear?
Yeah, Wear OS is better about such integrations.
Great watch and a nice video you made but the watch does not live up to water and leaks!
Seen some reports from people about this. Kind of strange - I've never had issue with it, and am actively using the device ever since it's out.
Great review! 12 minutes of well-produced, information-dense content. I've been looking for a smartwatch to upgrade to from my OG Huawei Watch, and it looks like this may be the one. Now lets see what Google announces today to see if I've got a good candidate to upgrade from my OG Pixel. :) Oh, and got my sub as well!
Thanks Adam - appreciate everything you say. The Huawei Watch - although a few years old already, is still totally relevant and responsive. I also hope to see some interesting models from other smartphone makers.
@@TechMishka I've noticed some performance degradation here and there, and it has trouble keeping a BT connection (although that could be the phone). I've got a Pixel5 on pre-order now, so that won't be an issue for long :)
Pretty nice! 🙃
is this the new version of Wear OS?
I have the previous TicWatch Pro LTE and the apps are presented differently + the health apps are different. I dont have as many exercise options or the Zen or Sleep apps for example
The app launcher has different sorting, and there are a few more features, but most of the things are in common. And you are right - most of the Tic-apps are with new versions. They seem to be available for the Ticwatch Pro 3 only right now.
I have the active 2 samsung and I had the c2 ticwatch loved the style and how good i felt on my wrist the active is really light compare to the c2 but I loved the c2 im really not liking my active 2 should I go back to ticwatch
That's up to you. Both watches are quite good smartwatches.
@@TechMishka which Is Better? Google assistant or Bixby?
Well, Everything seems to be great
But as a fossil gen 5 + falster 3 user the design of this watch is not tempting at all for me
I just ordered this watch to replace my Fossil Gen 5 Carlyle. ... This fossil is getting on my last nerve.
The Falster models look indeed great!
can we disable the second LCD screen completely and use the watch face ambient screen mode instead?
Yes, you can totally do that.
Thank you this video. Is the magnetic charger with 2 or 4 pins? Is it possible to transfer data from pc to the Ticwatch Pro 3 via this charger? Thank you
They aren't that smart. Looks like the pins are 4, and not usable for data transfer, as it's always been.
@@JMuleupdate: it has only 2 pins for charging, no data exchange.
I confirm that it cannot transfer any data.
Is the backlight available in essential mode?
God i hope so. This really bothered me on my tw pro
@@mikesnapper9001 It is available through the lift wrist gesture - which is pretty nice. The buttons cannot trigger it at this point (guess Mobvoi can add it as a feature);
Another thing I discovered just now is that in essential mode - pressing the function button enables the HR measurement - and you can check your heart-rate. Pretty dope!
@@TechMishka the ticwatch pro 2020 also had a HR function in essential mode as well. Thanks for your response I ended up getting one after watching your video!
Does this new ticwatch 3 pro have a black bezel all around the actual watchface or is it my imagination ? (does it have edge to edge screen like all the older ticwatch pros)
It does...
I find the biggest let down from the samsung smart watch is the ability to do voice commands. It can take them but either doesn't know what Im talking about, cant search (does not have the ability to do google searches) or cant activate its own tools. for instance it cant start a timer or a stop watch. Can this watch do all these?
Yeah, bixby has a long way to go. Google Assistant is way better in my opinion.
Are the constant "sorry, there was an error" messages every time you ask the assistant something fixed? It boils my blood every time you battle with other wear OS watches waiting for the G assistant to load and listen and then 95% of the time just give up
That's something I didn't test much because I belong to these people that have given up. Tried it perhaps 10-15 times for basic stuff and worked fine, but didn't really dig much into it.
@@TechMishka does ifttt work at least?
Cant waitttt
Hi, thank you for review. Could you try support app called Sports Tracker and install it from google play? Thank you very much for answer.
Doesn't seem to be compatible with the watch as it doesn't discover it from the Play Store on the watch
@@TechMishka That's a shame, but thank you for the answer
How does the workout auto-detection preform especially in comparison with the GW?
The GW is better right now.
@@TechMishka thank you
What's best watch for swimming, similar to Huawei GT2 or Amazfit with good battery life, but capable to use Watchface from 3rd party?
This one can do the job right. Or Huawei Watch Fit. Or Amazfit Stratos 3.
@@TechMishka I don't like rectangle Watch. The Statos 3 is not an improvment compared to mine GT2 from Huawei.
@@yahuchananl4543 Got it... Well - I am out of ideas for good budget watches. Maybe you can check something from Garmin .
GW3 or this? Which one will you recommend?
This. Tizen os sucks.
Tough choice. Really depends on your own preference. If you have a Samsung device, the Galaxy Watch 3 has some nice features.
Is the back of the watch now made with plastic ?
I think it is, yeah.
No metal
Does it work for playing golf to rack shots via the GPS?
Hm, haven't tried that yet.
Will never beat a Garmin
I think it depends on the category. They still are watches from two quite different universes.
which Garmin watch is good?
Snapdragon Wear 4100 seems to support eSIM, instant buy if Ticwatch Pro 3 has it... and why wouldn't it?
Been waiting for Wear OS watch with eSIM for ever now.
There's a thousand wear os watches with e sim since 2017 lmao
Yeah, good points. Based on the comments here - looks like there are a lot of requests for eSIM, hopefully someone from Mobvoi will notice that.
@@tahanumansimsek Must have missed, could you name some so I can look'em up? Thx!
Shapeless Cube I just checked and lg watch urbane weren’t e-sim so I’m guessing you’re right sorry
@@tahanumansimsek No problem, thanks for looking it up! Lets hope we get some Wear OS eSIM watches next year! :D
Looks like a great watch, a pity the case it a just plain & dull. I REALLY like the amazing looking fossil FTW4040, why can't they do a case like that?
Also it's a shame there's no watch which comes without the sport tracking stuff, it would cost less surely.
Maybe FOssil will soon adopt these Snapdragon 4xxx series.
The only thing i fell it is missing in this watch is a crown or rotating thing like the Galaxy Watches.. i mean, navigating through a watch with only the screen seems a litte bit weird to me.
Totally! Probably the rotating bezel is patented.
