Hi All.
Me in the look for my first ever SmartWatch.
my criteria below (hope its realistic).
- Round
- budget below USD100 (RM400).
- good quality color screen (min 240 x 240)
- long life battery, says recharging once every 7 days. i dun mind to take 5 days.
- simple functions such as call, msg notification, & other standard feature. DO NOT need sim card function, as lately an abundant on most. But I dun mind if it is there IF above criteria was met.

Achievable requirement huh?

So Far, my search has leads me to;

1.) No. 1 F18.
https://www.gearbest.com/smart-watches/pp_0...363#goodsDetail

2.) Lenovo Watch 9 (sort of hybrid hehe) & their Watch X Plus.

Lenovo watch 9 baru limited. Only few apps got vibration.
And no screen.

yes, true on the Watch9 - since its a Hybrid type

QUOTE(SonnyCooL @ Aug 18 2018, 10:01 PM)
add a little bit more and go for gear sport, current new from N9 bundle should be selling at RM 700, i think is really worth ...

Good recommendation, beautiful display, but the cons for me is the budget (almost Double) & the standby-time based on reviews is 2 days Max.

if u get a smart watch without most features and tiny OLED screen, u can get week or more batt life, but is that what u look for ? most ppl called those smart band not smart watch ....
*
clear onit. TQ.
for real, im looking for a smartwatch - as per my requirement listed earlier.
either branded or not, doesn't matter. if you can see my link for the first item - F18 seems to be a great stuff. Just i wanted to ask around IF there is another outside there that matched my requirements.

Ticwatch is the one super-tempting, but i got scare on the battery life, just because im not that type (recharging frequency).

Lenovo Watch X is another candidate , hybrid. but im awaiting they change the band. milano strap sucks

If want Wear OS smartwatch, wait a bit, maybe October smartwatch with better processor well be released, maybe pixel watch too.

Unless you want Samsung Tizen OS based watch.

How about ticwatch E? My budget is around 400-600 RM.

Apparently, AliExpress whom just finished their Sales on the Sept 1, would matched ur Ticwatch's budget.
I nearly click the TicWatch S - USD157 (approx RM650), after minus the AE Coupon, Store Coupon, etc.
Should be a bargain isn't it?

And the E would cost much less, right?

For me, design wise, Ticwatch range is one of the most 'beautiful' so far in the market.

Any buddy here wana share about their TicWatch battery life performance? do u get Full two days usage without charging? or more....

So, during the sales, I ended up with the Lenovo Watch X (Leather Gold),- costed me USD52 (RM216), albeit its a Hybrid smartwatch.
One reason I got it was because of their stated 45 days battery life.

But definitely Im eyeing for the next Tic. brows.gif

I use TicWatch E, after owning few Android Wear, I can say it has the best battery life among ( Moto 360, Huawei Watch & ZenWatch 3 ).
I can comfortably go 2 days without charge. Last week wear for 6 hours and reached home with 78% battery left. My own observation are that it's standby time are bad, mine can dropped that to 78% if I left it overnight and more  sweat.gif

Now gonna wait if new generation AW will have good looking while affordable option, or wait TicWatch Pro drop price.

Thanks for the info.
Ya, Ticwatch Pro is a monster. Would love to have one.....problem is the high price ATM.

Great choice! The Ticwatch pro battery life (& price) would be superior over GW. I would do the same.

I directly order from Mobvoi, because i compare the price between Mobvoi and Amazon, mobvoi much more cheaper.

Mobvoi directly is USD250 at the moment.
Lets share update from now on the cheapest sites we can get it from.
So far, it isnt on AliExpress yet, but GearBest will be available soon...Pray it will be Cheaper.

My first journey into Smartwatch world...albeit a Hybrid one.
Got it last month during AliExpress Sale.
USD52.

Very slick look, & in love with it!
Dono how this watch gonna be use for fitness functions (pictures attached) haha.

Maybe with these straps/bands that will be available soon.
definitely have a sportier looks.

https://mitem.lenovo.com.cn/product/1002661.html

Note:
1) The only problem is it don't shows Weather link, because I found out that it only links weather in China only.
But, it is not a problem to me.

Another side story is I saw a friend with HW Stratos, been using it for a month. Great watch according to him, but pls take note the screen is not Full Circle type. There is a "Cut" at the bottom if you get wat I mean wink.gif

This one definitely a budget-range killer.
With international version,n cheaper compared to spore, for example.
Very² Tempting.
Anyone mind to share some reviews? Much appreciated.

Fully charged & started messing with this toy.

so far,

1) the screen very nice. great. happy with it.
2) their os (Amazfit) not so bad after all. of course i havent tried Wear OS, so cant compare much.
3) very comfortable on the wrist, very light n cant feel at all, really.

hi guys, which one do you recommend? Amazfit verge or stratos? Appreciate your honest opinion, TQ
*
I believed it depends on your own taste.
Verge is more sporty & plastic feeling. Cheaper.

Stratos is more classy & premium feeling, cost more.

I have a friend on Stratos for 2 months aready & im on Verge for 2 weeks.
The only thing i dun like about Stratos is the "Flat tire face"

So far,im liking it! (Verge). Even sporty look, im wearing it for work- like ticwatch E.

Of course,this comparison is my own preferences, & there's a lot of features differs btwn both of them.

This is totally my own views

Let’s see what Google will do with Fossil Smartwatch tech https://www.theverge.com/2019/1/17/18187026...wear-os-android

I, personally never like Fossil watches.... probably because they are the real traditional watch maker.
Not very fond of fossil design,i dono why but it just me.
But, i hope any new breakthru/new things, will spurs the industry into new height.
Maybe the much awaited Google Watch will be tempting hehe.
