Easy to understand all the technical jargon... I am happy with your content.. You got a new subscriber.. Ya pls bring the xiaomi watch review and pls do let us know which is the better choice among 3 tic pro5, Xiaomi or 1+2... cheers mate
Got mine yesterday, LOVE it. Having a Pixel Watch 2, the size is excellent. The biggest plus is the sapphire crystal glass and advertised battery life, and that it has the weight and feel of my analog watches. My Pixel Watch 2 already has glass damage which really sucks and I have to charge it every day. My only gripe so far is all my fitness tracking is in Fitbit and at least for now, can't be moved over or integrated (yet?).
Anyone planning on buying needs to know that oneplus watch doesn't like other watch faces they work with the watches but usually give you warning that power save won't support any watch faces you download from Google just a fair warning not to panic it will still be supported just not in power saving mode
Thank you for providing the most comprehensive review yet! 🎉 Just to clarify, the watch is equipped with the W5 processor, not the W5+. Please let me know if I'm mistaken.
6:15 paused there and THAT IS HOW a watch is supposed to be, curved, curved enough to wrap around your wrist, so many watches are made but the band and where the band connects to are not curved enough and so far, this OnePlus watch it fits perfectly, and for safe measure, I will be selling my Classic 6 and buy a 2nd OnePlus so that I can use at work and if it scratch it I won't care, I'll have a 2nd one for the weekends.
I've got the Galaxy watch 6 series, the Xiaomi Watch S2 and the Amazfit Balance, and the Balance instantly became the "daily driver" as it does all needed, it's very customisable with the buttons, and even with the latest OS update where it is now possible to control all by voice commands/AI and not to forget, the battery lasts for days compared to the other watches that only get a couple of days the most.
@@farleyfaria it's a great watch, and power lasts for more than a week... Just remember to buy/add a protective cover for the watch' glass/display, as it scratches extremely easily.
Good review. Very informative. This watch is hands down better than the ticwatch pro 5. It's smoother and quicker. The screen looks better. Google wallet actually works on this watch. The only reason I'll upgrade this watch eventually is that it has too much bezel and the motor for vibration could be stronger (plus should have the option to customize the strength of vibration like their OnePlus 12 phone can). Also, they need to bring the water touch algorithm to the watch as well. So you can use in the rain or shower without phantom touches. Plus OnePlus or Android needs to allow customized ringtones and messages alerts. Can't believe that's not a thing already.
for me running whit music is important, if you have spotify premium and you download your running playlist or podcast can you go battery save mode and aces the music ? or only full wear os mode?
Funny thing is, like you, I am still waiting for the perfect smartwatch and then last night clearing out my google stuff, I came across 3 photos of previous smartwatches. Sony (square jobby) with the fabulous screen that was ledgible in daylight! Moto360 with the flat tyre that I honestly never minded because it's bezels were so thin. Huwawei, an early model with sapphire glass, beautiful stainless body and the smallest bezels ever. I still think this is the best form yet and watches went seriously backwards from this point.
I have been waiting for this review. But can you explain why a watch needs to play music, YT or any animation? I use my phone for that because the speakers are great. Thank you for reviewing this watch.
Love your reviews mate....cheers! Could be so kind to recommend a fitness ring or band (NOT WATCH, don't want it for time) that can measure Blood Pressure accurately enough???
Samsung and Honor are launching their Health Fitness Rings soon. Apple is rumoured to do the same. So stay tuned. I don't think blood pressure will be possible. We will have to wait and see.
I'm also interested in the vibration strength. Other reviews on Reddit said it was similar to the Galaxy watches. Which is good. Very few reviews mention the vibration strength which is frustrating to me since I need a strong vibration to wake me and give me daily notifications without sound.
Excellent review, thank you! I notice that it DOES have a couple of dials at least (green and blue) with traditional CALENDAR readouts. In an ideal world, I'd like a developer to come up with a lighter blue background dial, with full calendar read-out, including Moon phase and even, for us 'clockies', an Equation of Time dial.
Great review as always, and I completely agree with the frustrations of some of the Samsung frustrations you mention. However, that battery life is exactly the same as my classic 6 on smart mode and given the bigger screen and rotating bezel and most importantly wireless charging, the GW6 is far superior. We've had this discussion before, but just knowing I can use my phone to reverse wireless charge my watch offsets any loss in battery life (compared to the unreliable ticwatch) Where I agree is Samsung failing to provide a better Battery Saver mode. It cannot be beyond the watches capability to provide a user defined set of saver modes whereby one can select what features you disable completely. I read that google has now added the facility to allow different facilities to be run by different chips so perhaps it will happen next generation. In the meantime, Samsung will give users features like reviewing Health tracking on TV.. that is so useful, can't wait to try it out.😂
This is a really well done review. They make a 43-44 mm version & I'm in. Those of us with smaller wrists can't wear this giant. This watch seems to hit a sweet spot between the best of Wear OS & a Garmin watch.
Very good and detailed review. I would really like to know if you decides to use this dayly instead of your watch 6. Im trying to decide which of them to get. I really like the design of theese 2 more than the watch 6 classic
A few months later I'm asking how the earbuds are doing. I had some issues with the earbuds 2 models from a fast battery drainrate. Do the 3 models have it to? If not Imma buy them.
Are the complications on most of the default apps editable? I found with Ticwatch they are either not editable or you can only select from a really small number of the Ticwatch compllications
just got my watch today i have the oneplus 12 im debating if i should wait to get screen protector before using it...i have the pixel with lte but wanted something bigger lol
My 2 biggest concerns - can i pay with it without my phone being connected? Secondly, do you think the scrolling crown which dies nothing can be fixed by an upgrade or will be always just fake scroll on this one?
hi, i am a long time follower of your channel. have you considered doing some level of screening on the controversial or conflicting things in your review when compared to other popular review channels like dc rainmaker, desfit and quantified scientist? i feel that would create some level of confusion among smart watch enthusiasts such as yourself who are also following other channels. thanks for doing this, btw :)
As an none smart watch user, now that i got the One Plus 12 i'm looking to things like these, and was wondering if having this watch for the price or recommend something different?
The only two problems I can find with it is it's not wireless charging and the bezel on the watch is too big other than that this is a really nice smartwatch
thanks for the great review! nice watch but... my heart is with Huawei... I used Huawei watch 3, Huawei watch gt2 pro, Huawei watch gt3 pro and now Huawei watch 4 pro... the last one is just fantastic! if you would have a chance to test Huawei watch 4 pro you would love it :)
I just got mine as a gift but I'm having problems with SMS text messages. Calls come through. WhatsApp notifications come through. Even my doorbell notifications come through but SMS text messages .... nothing! What am I missing?
@@gnyanateja with huawei fit 3 you are passive only watch notifications you can’t respond with iPhone or androïde you need huawei phone, you can’t pay with Nfc in Europe also.. I hesitade also Oneplus is better

I mean, the OnePlus released 2 days ago. I don't think many people have both because it takes a few days for delivery. I've had the Ticwatch Pro 5 since release but I'm still waiting for my OnePlus to be delivered. I'm a big fan of Mobvoi but I think the OnePlus is gorgeous. I collect watches and was destined to buy this one.
Very great review as usual, thank you a billion! We have finally a new champion waiting for head to head comparison. Not very surprised with this great watch and i see the fingerprint of Oppo very clear here. Two processors, i think we had before in Oppo watch 4 pro, not sure about the battery modes but i feel that oppo watch X is the twin of oneplus 2. Great job and great review. Thank you a lot. Two last points. The first is about the head to head comparison between Mi band 8 pro and Samsung fit3, where i feel that samsung will fall again. The second point is my message for samsung to think better for future especially for battery and stop rotating good features between watches, this is the result of making watch 6 classic weakin battery to support purchases of watch 5 pro. Sorry Samsung but you are not the only option in the world of smart watches anymore.
Have you tried to answer calls on phone when you have a bluetooth device connected to the phone itself rather than the watch ? I cant get that to work, it disconnects any bluetooth device and directs the call to the phone itself.. that means that I cant use my regular bluetooth devices that are far better than the buds, or use the Google AAOS handsfree in the car.

Which one do you recommend? Oneplus watch 2 or Ticwatch 5 pro enduro?
I hav Samsung watch 6 classic, it good, but battery is awful, everything is turned off, battery saver is on & still I hav to charge everynight!!! Xiaomi band 8 is cheaper & lasts 14 days.. But I need additional features & will b buying oneplus watch 2.
Whilst I mostly love this watch, the biggest problem I’ve encountered is the ‘Sleep’ mode (ie turns off raise to wake, notifications & calls) and the DND are both manually activated. There’s no schedule option so you can automate the on and off times. Inevitably I’m going to forget to manually turn them on or off and it will have consequences.
excellent review, but I would mention one big CON to this watch that holds me back from buying it and that would be only 2 years of wearOS updates + 1 year extra of security updates. I don't want my watch to be outdated after two years, compare this update cycle to the galaxy watch....
Which UK and US banks for tap to pay? Had a huawei gt 5, nice look but doesn't support tap to pay in Europe or the USA (works in Russia and China banks).
I luv the watch. But I lost my pin code and it was disconnected from my phone. Therefore I could not reset the watch or access the apps I sent it in for repair... they sent it back without repairing it after two weeks! It costs me $40 to send it in. Will see what they do about it.
Hoping for oneplus watch 3 will be slightly thinner, around 50-60g weight and with functional rotating crown...also, hoping the update for watch 2 will improve the waiting time to view message from notification..
I know they may need to shave a bit of battery but I'd like it to go to a 44mm casing and a couple mm thinner. I have this watch and it's nice but it needs some updates.
@@japomi I'm eager to know what yours can do that mine don't, perhaps you can have NFC which mine doesn't but I have full Alexa integration, messages replies, full Spotify support, 4gb of storage, spot on health metrics, every gps satellites position with dual band currently available, wifi and the best of all, over 5K free watch faces made by modders and devs, a full 1.45" inch 60hz amoled screen with 1000nits.. I mean, for the price I've gotten it, that's quite hard to beat...
Hope this helps spark a drive to improve battery life on WearOS watches. Had the Ticwatch Pro 5, but ran in to some very annoying software niggles on it, so got a Galaxy Watch 6 Classic at a hefty discount (plus it has LTE). Love the watch, but 1 day battery life is rough. Software is good, no oddities as yet, app is good, probably overall the best WearOS watch I've owned to date. The Xiaomi Watch 2 looks nice and has 2-3 days battery life, but no promises on software support and also reports of quite buggy software, so a pass from me. Something about the button design/layout puts me off this OnePlus watch, as the 'crown' doesn't actually do anything, I don't really see the point of making things asymmetrical, like they have.
I had the Watch 6 classic, sent it back for a refund, the watch would disconnect from my phone and the only option was to reset the watch, losing my customisations, couldn't do that every couple of weeks! Bought this OnePlus Watch 2 and really impressed to be fair.

there is a lag
Thank you for providing the most comprehensive review yet! 🎉 Just to clarify, the watch is equipped with the W5 processor, not the W5+. Please let me know if I'm mistaken.
Thank you for your feedback! Appreciated.
@@ChigzTech Okay, but can you let him know if he's mistaken?
@@VenVileit's not using the w5+ because it uses a different co processor.
@@VenVile I m very sure it's W5 not W5+
This was an amazing video. Thanks for the easy to digest comparisons, and detailed research on your part.
Does it have option to transfer pictures and open in gallery app or something like in Apple Watch?
Is this an Esim independent watch or do you need your phone nearby to use all features?

I don't get it , why no rotating bezel to scroll thru the menu ? Screen will be full of fingerprints
Amazing, So this is basically like a WearOS Huawei Watch 4. I cannot wait to get mine, I am excited.

Only in wear os mode.

Wireless charging I count against a watch. There's no advantage to it and it makes charging take much longer.
The Pogo pins start to corrode after a while that's why I prefer wireless charging but it is slower.
The best review for watch 2 so far..

@@japomi I'm eager to know what yours can do that mine don't, perhaps you can have NFC which mine doesn't but I have full Alexa integration, messages replies, full Spotify support, 4gb of storage, spot on health metrics, every gps satellites position with dual band currently available, wifi and the best of all, over 5K free watch faces made by modders and devs, a full 1.45" inch 60hz amoled screen with 1000nits..
I mean, for the price I've gotten it, that's quite hard to beat...
Hope this helps spark a drive to improve battery life on WearOS watches. Had the Ticwatch Pro 5, but ran in to some very annoying software niggles on it, so got a Galaxy Watch 6 Classic at a hefty discount (plus it has LTE). Love the watch, but 1 day battery life is rough. Software is good, no oddities as yet, app is good, probably overall the best WearOS watch I've owned to date. The Xiaomi Watch 2 looks nice and has 2-3 days battery life, but no promises on software support and also reports of quite buggy software, so a pass from me. Something about the button design/layout puts me off this OnePlus watch, as the 'crown' doesn't actually do anything, I don't really see the point of making things asymmetrical, like they have.
Hi. Could you let me know about your experience with the ticwatch pro 5? I've just placed an order for it.
I had the Watch 6 classic, sent it back for a refund, the watch would disconnect from my phone and the only option was to reset the watch, losing my customisations, couldn't do that every couple of weeks! Bought this OnePlus Watch 2 and really impressed to be fair.
