Another fantastic watch from Mobvoi
I discovered smart watches many years ago and I wouldn't go back to an analog watch now.... I find a smart watch offers so much more information than a traditional analog or digital watch. I love ability to get notifications, weather updates, health and fitness tracking ... and so much more.I have had four different smart watches to date. My last watch (that I have been using for two years - and still looks great) is a Mobvoi Tickwatch Pro 3 GPS. As I have been so happy with my last TicWatch, I decided to treatmyself to the latest Ticwatch Pro 5 model.... and can happily say that I very pleased with my purchase.I was initially concerned that the jump from my Ticwatch Pro3 to the Ticwatch Pro 5 would be a minor one, but thankfully I was wrong... the new Ticwatch Pro 5 offers a lot more functionality and improvements over my previous model:The Main OLED screen:The new OLED Ticwatch screen is bright and fluid. The pixel density seems a lot more detailed than my old smartwatch (especially when showing notifiactions).The Low Power Screen:I don't know how they do it, but Mobvoi have a ingenious system where they overlay a very low power LCD style screen over the top of the OLED colour screen. This allows the watch to display genearl information (such as the time) without wasting lots of power. The watch can be put into this mode to enable it to run for many days (even weeks) without charge (great if you are going somewhere without power, like a festival). This low power LCD screen was available on my previous Ticwatch Pro 3, but the background colour was fixed and the information was very limited. One the Ticwatch Pro 5 Mobvoi have taken this feature to another level - the low power screen can now display, heartbeheart rate, compass bearing, blood oxygen level and calories (all great if you are an out doors type). One additional feature that I love on the low power screen is that the default back light colour can now also be changed ( I have mine set to red so it doesn't distract so much in the dark - and can improve your night vision). I did notice that when the watch detects that you are training (and automatically kicks in the training monitor) the LCD backlight colour will change depending on your heart rate (Light Blue - Warming Up (<100BPM), Yellow - Fat Burn (>100BPM), Orange - Cardio (>150BPM), Purple - Anerobilc (>170BPM) and (>180 BPM) Red when your heartrate is dangerously elevated.This low power second screen mode is the real advantage Mobvoi offers over the competion - and its the feature that really distinguishes the watch from others.Operating System:The Ticwatch Pro 5 is complete with the latest version of Wear OS from Android. The notifications and layout seem to be improved over my previous Android watch. The processor is quick and responsive with no noticable lag when operating the touch screen, buttons and digital crown.Hardware:Having owned a Ticwatch Pro 3 for the last two years I have no fear that The Ticwatch Pro 5 will not be as solidly built (if not better). All of the Ticwatch Pro 5's materials seem well finished and offer great syle and quality. The silicon strap is comfortable and easily changed out by its quick release method.I have fairly small wrist, and the Ticwatch Pro 5 doesn't look out of place or too bulky.The new Ticwatch Pro 5 now offers a digital crowm that can be used as a user input method. This is a really nice feature to have (especially in the winter when you have gloves on, making it difficult to accuratley control the screen with touch alone).The new Ticwatch Pro 5 has some really useful sensor hardware upgrades in the form of a digital compass, barometer and altimeter (great for outdoor adventurers).Apparently the Ticwatch Pro 5 also includes a body temperature sensor, but I haven't seen where or how to access this data yet (I'll keep looking).Battery life & charging:The battery life on my Ticwatch Pro 3 has always been great (lasting for two days without charge), thanks to its low power screen switching. So far the Ticwatch Pro 5 seem equally matched, if not better.... I will report back what kind of battery life I get when I have lived with it a bit longer.The magnetic charger socket is simple to use and connects solidly to the watch when charging (the magnetic lock pulls the socket into place when you hold it close to the back of the watch). The charging seems very quick (pushing around 60% battery top-up in only 25 minutes).Software & Features:Mobvoi offer some great life style and health applications that are really useful (such as sleep monitoring, physical training & heart rate monitoring). But, this being an Android watch you can always choose to use the google or third party versions if you prefer (your choice).Summary:A really great smart watch offering from Mobvoi. A perfect purchase :0)

Yes, I’m finally converted to smart watches!
I’ve been a watch enthusiast for many years, happy to spend £400-1000 on watch if it had an interesting movement (mechanical or quartz) or was otherwise unusual.I’ve been really sceptical about smart watches, as when the first ones came out they were not at all impressive. For the past 5 years or so I’ve been keeping an eye on what was available, and never felt confident about making a purchase, especially since many of my work colleagues have had smart watches which just seemed very limited in performance, battery life, and what they could actually do – some being much more for fitness geeks, some more geared towards messaging, and so on.Then I saw some review videos about the TicWatch 5, hailing it as a very capable watch with all-round features. It seemed like all the reviewers were impressed by it in all the areas that I had been doubtful of, so I went ahead and took the plunge!First Impressions:I have to say the first thing that struck me was how nice the watch looked. A simple, almost classic case design that would not look out of place on any occasion.But it is really quite large!! At least compared to what I’m used to, my other largest watches being a Traser and a Mondaine Stop2Go at the ~40mm mark. This case is around 46mm plus the crown; however, it is also much lighter than the others, and still wears extremely easily.One really nice thing is that the watch has standard 24mm lugs, which means that your choice of strap won’t be limited by what the manufacturer provides. Noticing that my Obsidian version had a red highlight on the crown, I went for a black leather strap with red stitching from Burton.The supplied rubber strap is totally fine, though, and because it’s a little stretchy, holds the watch a little tighter to the skin, making some of the health monitoring more reliable.Speed, Navigation, and Screen:It’s noticeably faster than many of my colleagues’ watches when swiping through screens, and the screen itself is crisp and bright! It’s a joy to look at and use.Most apps are a swipe or two away, and it’s so good to be able to check my notifications and potentially reply to them on the watch – although for some things I do still need to get the phone out. The typing arrangement on a watch is never going to be as good as on a 6” phone screen, after all! It’s great not to have to draw attention to a potentially very expensive phone on the bus, though.Some settings are hidden a bit deeper in the menu system, and it can be a bit of a hassle trying to remember where a particular setting is, especially if it’s been a while since you changed it. But on balance, I like it, as it avoids accidental changes to the fundamental way the watch works.Battery Life:This was always an important one for me. I was expecting normal use to last a day, but in fact I’ve had a good 2 days before I’ve felt the need to charge. And just sitting in a drawer it will certainly last 4-5 days by switching itself to ‘Essential Mode’. When you do want to charge, it so fast even off one of my PC’s USB ports that it’s literally no trouble at all.Overall:It’s clear that with this watch smart watches have come of age. I find it so very useful, I rarely go out without it, unless I really fancy wearing one of my ‘stupid’ watches.My colleagues who already have smart watches are very impressed by the speed and screen. It’s maybe not as completely integrated with Android as a Samsung watch is with Samsung phones, or a Apple Watch is with an iPhone, but I really don’t want to find myself in a ecosystem where I don’t have much real choice.Very, very highly recommended!! The only very slight caveat is if you have quite small wrists. It might not be for you. See picture – I wear a standard length watch strap on the 2nd hole in, so I have quite big wrists. It doesn’t feel bulky, though, thanks to the light weight, I think, so it would probably wear fine on all but the smallest wrists.
