It has been a while since I wore an Android Wear watch. Of course, if you are an Android fan, you might already know that Android Wear is now called Wear OS by Google. Thanks to Mobvoi, I am able to review their latest flagship smart watch, the TicWatch Pro.<\/p>\n

\n<\/p>\n

As I only had the watch for two weeks, this will not be a comprehensive review. It will be more like a walkthrough on the various features and to test out the real-life scenarios of using the smart watch.<\/p>\n

What is in the Box<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Inside the box, it has the standard accessories. Below is the charging cradle. You can use a USB port to charge up the TicWatch Pro.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Close up of the charging cradle.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This is the size of the watch.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I have a very small wrist. This is how it looks like on my wrist.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Here is how it looks like on the back.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Close up of the back. At the center, it has the heart rate sensor. On the right-hand side (based on the picture below), it has the contact point for the charging cradle.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And if you notice, the strap is a quick release type. And if you really notice, it seems that the strap has leather on it.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

You are correct. On the top, the strap has a leather layer.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

On the bottom, it is made of rubber.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I do find it a bit weird but nevertheless, you can always change the strap if you want. On one side, it has two control buttons.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

There is nothing on this side.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In term of thickness, it is thick but doesn’t look bulky when I wear it.<\/p>\n

Power On<\/strong><\/h2>\n

You will be greeted by this TicWatch screen when you power on.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

To make full use of the smart watch, you will need to download the apps – the Google Wear OS app and the Mobvoi app (for greater customization). Connection is very simple.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

One of the greatest features for Android wearables is that they have lots and lots of way to customize. For smart watch, the watch face is the most common customization.<\/p>\n
