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

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.

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).

Waiting for September/October for the Pixel watch 2/GTS5/GTR5 to decide which will replace my Pixel watch. The less-than-a-day battery really is a killjoy on the first Pixel watch. 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.

I was a little annoyed by no wear OS 3.0 as well, but mine is still running wear OS 2.0 so buttery smoothly not quite frankly I don't care. I still get over 2 days of battery life, and it's still running so well. Especially considering it's been as low as 189 and still arguably the best Android smart watch out there I'd say it's a bargain

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.

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 paired my Pro 5 with my Sony Pro-i phone. Like you, every time I checked I was seeing a 'System update downloading' notification which failed to progress.

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.

​@@terrym540 I still have my Pro 3 Ultra watch connected via the WearOS app on the same phone, and I've noticed that when you have the Pro 5 connected to the Mobvoi Health app, it defaults the WearOS app to the new watch setup screen. So in order to reconnect to my Pro 3 Ultra, I have to disconnect the Pro 5 from the Mobvoi Health app. Not a big problem, but clearly there is still some communication link with the new Pro 5 and the old Wear OS app. Ah, the joys of buying devices as soon as they're newly launched! 😆

Mobvoi promised a Wear OS 3 update for 2022, and my TicWatch 3 Pro is still running Wear OS 2. I won't give them another chance.

Disappointed. No LTE. No wireless charging. Weak vibration. Sticking with my original Galaxy Watch. Still get 4-5 days with that (without lte of course). But I so love the dual screen.

I'm planning to buy a TikTok Pro 5, and I'm an iPhone 15 Pro Max user, so I want to use it in conjunction with my phone, but can I use it in the same way as an Android phone? If it's different, what's the difference?

Great review (as always) I am in the process of ordering a pro 5 from Amazon & have downloaded the mobvoi app but am confused as the list of ticwatches to pair does not include the pro 5. Does this appear once you start pairing the pro 5? Please excuse the daft question
