ticwatch pro review: the smartwatch flagship killer?

Ticwatch Pro is the latest smartwatch from Chinese company Mobvoi, newcomer to UK smartwatch market.   Unlike its cheaper predecessors, Ticwatch Pro's casing adds stainless steel for more robust feel and its strap is nicer, too, combining bit of leather with the mostly silicone construction..   Ticwatch Pro's hardware is built around Qualcomm Snapdragon Wear 2100 chip and also has NFC for making contactless payments.   Mobvoi boasts that Ticwatch Pro uses premium materials on its packaging and, depending on your tastes, the downside to Ticwatch Pro's stainless steel and glass-fibre reinforced casing is apparent as soon as it's unboxed it's one hefty watch..   With the strap attached, Ticwatch Pro weighs mighty 78g, which is not far off double the weight of Ticwatch E.   Broadly speaking, the styling of Ticwatch Pro mimics that of Ticwatch S, with second numbers marked on the bezel around the edge of the watch face.   From afar, there's no reason anyone would guess you're not wearing device, except up close Ticwatch Pro lacks the subtlety and refinement of more expensive smartwatches such including Fitbit Versa.   It's not altogether to the cable you get with Ticwatch E and S, except that it's larger, and you sit the device on top of it rather than just clipping it to its side.   Start Outdoor Walk or Cycling mode in the Fitness app, for example, and after few seconds, OLED shuts off and instead displays the details of your workout, including heart rate, time and distance on LCD...   Pro employs Qualcomm Snapdragon Wear 2100.   Read more
