Ticwatch E3 Smart Watch Wear OS by Google for Men Women Qualcomm Snapdragon Wear 4100 Platform Health Monitor Fitness Tracker GPS NFC Mic Speaker IP68 Waterproof Android Compatible Only

I have previously owned a couple Mobvoi smartwatches and other small-brand smartwatches/Wear OS devices. This one packs a whole lot into a great price point!Performance: The watch is very smooth and responsive with the Snapdragon 4100 processor. I haven't experienced any lag whatsoever on the watch.Battery life: I average about 2-3 days with normal usage. This is better than a lot of other watches on the market, since it allows me to wear it to sleep more often than others.Screen: The E3 has a large vivid screen. Colors pop and look great. The size fits the entire interface, which was a problem on some previous Ticwatches. It does stick out a bit, which makes it look a bit nicer but more conducive to scratches.Sensors: This is a HUGE plus for the E3. There are so many chips and sensors jam-packed into this watch that rival others significantly above its price point. They work quite well compared to other active bands that I've worn.Construction & Build Quality: The watch is on the lighter side, which is great for those who are on the active side. The band is silicone, and the casing is not as hard or heavy as it looks. Hopefully this is good news for drops. Unfortunately, the bezel is a bit larger and the watch quite a bit thicker than I would like, but that seems to be paired with all of the features packed into this watch.App: Having to juggle between the Mobvoi app and Wear OS is a bit tedious, but the Wear OS app is only necessary for a few functions (changing watch face, tiles, et al). The Mobvoi app is a HUGE improvement over past versions, and the interface is great for seeing a quick overview of activity and health indicators gathered from the various sensors.Overall, I like this watch a lot and am excited for the functionality of Wear OS combined with the hardware packed into this great value smartwatch.

Good: Top-end android wear device, which runs actual android wear. Has all the bells and whistles you'd expect. Battery life has been lasting me about 4 days between charges. Activity tracking seems on par. I do not wear watches when I sleep so cannot comment on the sleep tracking. The heart rate tracking seems to be very quick, faster than prior fitness watches I've had in the past.I only used the NFC once simply to test it, otherwise I tend to use my phone directly for NFC payments. Worth mentioning, watch band that it comes with has many adjustment points, which is great, as a few past watches I've had only had a few holes, and I always tended to be between two sizes.Bad: The only bad thing I can even say about this watch, is the watch face itself ended up with a scratch halfway across it within the first six hours of putting it on. This is more puzzling as I literally put it on when I woke up, and sat at a desk most of the day. So what could have caused this scratch is beyond me, but didn't give me great confidence in the type of glass used. I put more emphasis on this specifically because this watch is replacing a prior Ticwatch Pro which suffered a cracked screen after a few years of ownership. I've docked one-star for this. I could chalk it up to my own carelessness, but honestly can't think of where it could have been scratched, or how. If there was a "feature" rating for durability I'd simply dock it there instead of the overall, but it wasn't an option.

Ok ive had the Tic Watch E3 two weeks and its time for a review!TL:DR its great, go get one and try it out!My last watch was an asus zenwatch 2, so ive been out of the game for a little bit. I was looking for something new and affordable since upgrading from a note 9 to a S22 plus. The Tic Watch E3 is really it!Initial setup is a breeze and had everything going within minutes of taking it out of the box.First things first,The battery life. Its great, up to two days between a fast charge before work (takes about a half hour i think to get a full charge). Im using all the bells and whistles too. Heart rate, steps, sleep, oxygen, gps, spotify and probably more. Really quite surprised actually considering how light this watch is.This watch is LIGHT! i almost dont like wearing watches because i like my arms to weigh the same. Lol but seriously, between the weight of my old watch and its battery life, i just stopped using it. The Tic Watch E3 is some serious hardware and weighs almost nothing by comparison.The display, its bright and easy to read even in full daylight and adjustible. the touch sensor on the watch is very well made too. I never thought a keyboard on a display that small would be easy to use. But it is! Ive used it to log into my Tic account to keep track of my activity. And used it to reply to messages. Its surprisingly easy and accurate.Sleep tracking is very informative, I've actually been sleeping better now that i can see how my routines affect my sleep. And when i feel like i didnt sleep well i have all the info i need to convince my self that i actually did.Heart rate, steps and GPS are all very accurate and informative. Makes me want to do more in order to break previous records ive set or keep consistent. And when ive been sitting too long it gives me a reminder to get up and move around for a little bit. Extremely helpful when im on my pc too much. (im always on my pc too much)Its also very easy to manage which apps are notified by the watch and to silence your phones notifications when the watch is active. Helpful so you aren't buzzing on both devices.Ive been using the Tic apps exclusively on my watch and have no complaints. Plenty of stock watch faces available by default. And through apps like Watchmaker and more you have an endless supply of watch-faces ranging from all the data displayed you can think of to absolute minimal.Instant familiarity if you've used any other or previous android wear product with a suite of features and options you'll find on more expensive models.Waterproofing is very acceptable, i dont plan on swimming with it on (personal preference here, i know the watch would be fine) but i get dirty at work. Ill run it under water to wash off the grime before washing my self up and have had no issues.The glass is tough too, its still as pristine as the day i took it out of the box. Despite the abuse my work causes it.And last but not least, the watch band it comes with i thought i would replace almost right away. As i did with my Zenwatch and almost any other watch (smart or regular) ive owned. To my surprise i did not need nor want to do that in this case. Its just fine, it works, its comfortable and unless the band wears out or breaks ever ill keep it.In conclusion to my review, i really like this watch. Ive become more active and generally enjoy using it. Highly recommend you try it out yourself.
