Let’s figure out how far the budget WearOS smartwatches made it in 2019! Let’s explore the hardware, and we begin by unboxing it. Looks good – this is typical for Mobvoi smartwatches, and generally they are famous for packing a lot of greatness in rather small price. Of course, there’s no way the E2 to be as good as the Ticwatch Flagship – called the Pro. The bump surrounding the display acts as a good protection layer, in addition to the Gorilla glass. There is only one button, and of course – a beautiful 1.39 inch vibrant AMOLED display. Mobvoi have always been good for their screens, and while AMOLED is not too fantastic being visible outdoors, it still is fine for indoor usage, and sometimes – visible if you have the right watchface. Underneath the display – we see a 30% growth of the battery, Snapdragon 2100 processor, 512MB RAM, and 4GB storage, out of which more thah 2GB are available for storing files. The single button opens the app drawer, and can be used as a home button tool. By default – long press activates Google assistant. There is no speaker – reading the display is your only communication channel. Setting up is easy, and Ticwatch are kind enough to provide a set of good watchfaces. You will find the usual amount of default apps – most of them are typically being distributed with WearOS – Play Store, Weather, Timer, Stopwatch; Ticwatch has a specially developed framework for fitness tracking – TicHealth, TicPulse and TicExercise; You can of course use Strava – which unlike the very popular watch GT2 – has good integration with wear OS. Generally – while there are some tracking capabilities, I cannot say it is a great sports watch – and so far the WearOS intention has never been; Most of the cycles I managed to get around a day of battery life with always on screen, second level of brightness (out of 5) which was sort of expected. What comes as an extra disadvantage on the Ticwatch is the lack of ambient sensor – so there’s no auto brightness mode. There’s a calendar feature – and if you have a lot of appointments and you want to somewhat control your calendar from the watch – this is something Ticwatch can help you with. At the end – a short summary… Strong sides – the waterproofness, the app support, the microphone – therefore Google assistant. And the price! But looking at the drawbacks… Battery life is unfortuinately not sarisfactory, and it’s WearOS to blame; build quality matches the title – entry level, and while performance is sort of alright – 512MB are not enough for
