Forget the Pixel Watch! | Ticwatch Pro 5 Review

Ғылым және технология

Reviewing Mobvoi's Ticwatch Pro 5, the best Wear OS smartwatch for battery life and my favourite new wearable of 2023. I've been testing the Ticwatch Pro 5 for a fortnight now and here's my verdict on the Snapdragon W5 Plus Gen 1 performance, fitness tracking and more. Seriously, it's better than the Pixel Watch, and lasts longer than the Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 Pro.
Personally I've been getting around 4-5 days of full use from a single charge of the Ticwatch Pro 5, which is days ahead of Wear OS rivals. Google's UI has been slick as anything thanks to the Snapdragon performance and you've got all of the features, plus Play Store support. So you can download fresh apps onto this watch, whenever you like.
Mobvoi's face selection is decent, while the Ticwatch Pro 5's OLED screen is bright, poppy and crispy. On top of that you have a low-powered LED panel which can tell you the time and basic stats any time of day, without draining the battery.
If you're into health tracking, there's a respectable setup here and you can download Strava, Fiit and other apps if you prefer. However, true fitness enthusiasts will be better off with a Garmin or something more dedicated to the art.
For consumers, I recommend the excellent user experience of the Ticwatch Pro 5. It's my favourite smartwatch of 2023 so far, for sure!

    In 2022 Google made changes to their requirements as far wear os3, even fossil has issues as well. Google assistant is not allowed on it anymore. It's not just ticwatch. Hopefully now with the new updated device it will meet the requirements and updates will not be am issue. We will see I guess

    Mobvoi with a very bad timing (no pun intended): after years neglecting Wear OS update for its previous models, the company announces the Pro 5 with Wear Os 3 on the verge of the Wear OS 4 release by Google/Samsung. It makes very hard for the consumer to bet on them once more (even worse given the recent past).

    Agreed! The watch is only as good as the software. It feels like I held onto my Ticwatch Pro 3 for decades waiting for Wear OS 3. It had amazing specs for 2020, but after time, things started slowing down and the battery started draining. I basically threw that thing away and got a Galaxy Watch 5 Pro.

    Not too sure about Tic Watch, had the original E and E3 which was a great improvement on the E but found that after the initial six months getting nearly three days use between charges it started dropping to a day. I'd reset it, turn off functions, get two days and then after an update restart I'd be back to a day. In the end I've swapped back to Fitbit.

Just hope Zepp solves some of their software niggles with the next version (BT calling and heart rate monitoring seem to be the most common complaints, plus very limited Alexa functionality). The history with Mobvoi and updates have turned me off from trying them.

Can you have the tilt to wake on for the coloured backlight of the LCD screen in smart mode and it not come on when do not disturb/sleep mode is on?

    Morning Chris! Firstly I love all your reviews, so keep up the excellent work! 😀 I received my new TicWatch Pro 5 smartwatch yesterday (27/05/23) and completed the initial setup using the Mobvoi Health app on my OnePlus 10 Pro. Ever since I initially set-up the watch, I receive a continuous 'System update downloading' notification but this update but has made 0% progress in almost 24 hours of trying. I've fully reset the watch and tried and setup the watch a 2nd time, but this made no difference. Power cycling also doesn't stop this pesky download notification. So I'm now going to try pairing it with my old Xiaomi 11T Pro and see if that makes any difference. Did you have any similar experiences whilst you were reviewing this watch?

I woke up during the night, and saw a notification that the watch was updating, and the update proceeded to completion. Checked just now, and the notification is that the watch is up to date with Android version 11, and Android security update 5 May 2023.

    Thank you so much for the review! Looking at it, I don't see a reason to upgrade from my Pro 3, even if the extra couple days of battery would be nice. I'm disappointed for the lack of update to Wear OS 3, but I also know that's partially Google's fault for refusing to let them keep the Assistant and that's something that I do find myself using often, at least more often than I use it on my phone. Also I think that for the price they should at minimum also be able to do wireless charging, without that there really isn't any reason to update.

    Pixel Watch 2 doesn't exist. You can of course wait for it, but it might never come hypothetically and who knows what you'd be getting yourself into. I'm not advocating for Mobvoi, getting a Samsung Galaxy Watch is probably the better choice here to be honest, due to Mobvoi's problematic history of not releasing any updates for their existing smartwatches, but there's no guarantee whatsoever, that Pixel Watch 2 will be a massive improvement over the version 1. And judging by version 1, it's unlikely that it would beat Samsung in any relevant aspect.

    This is definitely on my list. Unlike some, the lack of an update (which is fairly nominal in features) doesn't worry me, although poor customer service would. Will do the research but looks to be one of the best, if you don't end up with issues early on.

    Mine arrived yesterday as an upgrade from the pro 3 gps which worked ok. This new pro 5 is riddled with issues even after you finaly get it to update its SW. Main issue is Bluetooth. It will not stay connected for voice calls. It also wont play my radio app! The old pro 3 does all this fine. I have sent my pro 5 back for a refund and will carry on with the 3. It would be helpfull if you cut some of the clever 'bad boy' jargan and actually tested it properly.

    Just got one and my first impressions are that it's a significant upgrade in quality on the 3 Pro - the haptic vibration motor is soooo much better! So far Wear OS 3.5 seems just as good as on Pixel Watch. Just got to hope that they do better on the old upgrades front now they are starting from a position of a watch already designed for WOS 3!

    So after waiting nearly a year for this watch after they announced the snapdragon wear 5100+ the missing google assistant is a real bummer and the update problematic is still not really solved so I guess I'll wait for the pixel watch 2 or the galaxy watch 6 but I don't have a Samsung so the pixel watch is my best bet I guess. I really hope they update the processor and do something about the battery life.
