Let's Talk Tech
Ticwatch Atlas review!
Mobvoi delivers the best battery life on a smartwatch! The new Atlas isn’t a radical redesign, or a chunky “ultra” watch, but it brings a more durable shell and some new features to Ticwatch lineup!
I’ve been wearing it for a couple weeks, and here are my thoughts! Continue reading “The Best Battery Life WearOS Smartwatch Just Got More Rugged! TicWatch Atlas Review!”
If you’re shopping a full featured smartwatch (especially in North America) chances are pretty good the bulk of sales are going to Apple and Samsung. However, if you want more features than on a fitness tracking watch, there are a handful of other players to consider.
We’re going to take a look at three players for this comparison:
These are premium options, that each run a full build of Wear OS (built on Android), and are capable of installing a wide variety of apps. They differ from fitness tracking watches in having more robust software and better support for rich notifications and replies. They are more powerful “wrist computers”, but that often means they will get poorer battery life than fitness trackers.

TicWatch Pro 5 Enduro Review!
Aaaaaand it’s basically a TicWatch Pro 5, with a little bit of hardware nudge.
The newest Wear OS watch from Mobvoi is not a radical hardware change. Where Xiaomi, Oppo, and Google are only just catching the tech on the Pro 5, the Enduro is move towards slightly better efficiency and fancier build materials. It’s still a TicWatch though, and while some of the software situation has improved, we still need to chat about updates… Continue reading “TicWatch Pro 5 Enduro: A Small Refresh to a Nice Wear OS Watch”
WearOS 3 is coming to the TicWatch!
Two years later, after tons of delays, updates are always welcome, but is this software too little, too late? Is this Mobvoi’s problem?
What should the TicWatch do next?

Mobvoi Earbuds Review!
I’m a big fan of the TicWatch, and I still use the Mobvoi treadmill. This is my first listen on some Mobvoi Earbuds! Arriving at an incredible price for ANC, but also including some fun tech features.
Here are my thoughts on the Earbuds ANC! Continue reading “Mobvoi Earbuds ANC are $60! Best Budget Buds?”
TicWatch Pro 3 ULTRA GPS review!
The best WearOS watch gets better! Offering three days of smartwatch use, OR 45 days of fitness tracking, Mobvoi is refining the heart tracking tech for even better health results. A new “beat to beat” sensor detects IHB and AFib, and the new colored backlight is fun to customize!
We should probably talk about this watch’s processor though…
Here’s to better health! Continue reading “TicWatch Pro 3 Ultra WearOS Smartwatch Review: 3 Day Battery! Now with AFib Detection!”
Wear OS is seeing something of a renaissance.
Samsung partnering with Google for software. Qualcomm delivering a GREAT processor for wearables. And Mobvoi is packaging this all together in a great smartwatch which is easy on the wallet!
Folks looking for a computer on your wrist, this might be your jam! Continue reading “TicWatch E3 Review: Budget Friendly, Next Gen Power, Wear OS!”
Don’t lose your phone!
An old feature I loved on the Pebble, we used to get a notification when our watch dropped the Bluetooth connection to our phone. It saved me a couple times from losing my phone while traveling.
I really missed that feature, but there IS a version of it on WearOS! You just gotta dig for it… Continue reading “Make a Smartwatch Leash for your Phone with WearOS!”
