Thanks for all the well wishes, friends! If you're wondering where my profile pic is ... well, so am I! But the good news is, I'm not locked out of my own channel anymore! Full story here: twitter.com/theMrMobile/status/1213248345369653248?s=20
Very happy that you're back, Michael. I always enjoy your videos, and they are really a jolt of happiness in my day. So happy you're back. BTW, I really like how the studio is looking. Hopefully, we will get a tour?? LLAP
Thank God you are back , i was wondering about you today morning in Pakistan 🙁 happy to see you. But new year did not strat well without your videos of "best smart phone of 2019 awards" plZ make video
I see that you're trying talking to the camera more and not just voice over b roll. I like it. It helps reinforce the conversational flow of your reviews.
This is the watch I've been waiting for. This is the review I've been waiting for. I'm keen on hybrids and this one is a next level. The model that blended classic and smart watches being still stylish and long living but techy enough at the same time. I think I gonna get one.
I got the rose gold style- perfect for a teacher and anyone who shouldn't have a smart device on them the majority of their time working. I mostly wanted a fitness tracker with a traditional clock face so this fits the bill. Absolutely love it and not having to charge every other day. I find the tracking is excellent though my time reading before bed is often counted with my sleep. I've found the sweet spot for waking up the screen via tap is above or below the hands, not too close to the center. Thanks for your in depth review
I have to tell you. I watch all the major tech reviewers out there and you are, by far, my favorite. I refuse to spend my money on a piece of tech without watching your review first.
I'm all-in on the Garmin ecosystem and a watch enthusiast. The STANDARD 20mm lug width is one of the nicest stats on this watch. I already have a bunch of 20mm straps and tossed the default blue strap that comes with the Luxe back in the box.
Mr.Mobile is my go-to channel for smartwatch reviews. It's become somewhat of a tradition, over the years- to watch every new smartwatch's review on your channel first. So yes, make that captain watch review!
I love your channel. I am currently watching every video you posted on the TH-cam so far even if it's about the tech that is 3 years old. Shame you only have a million subscribers. It should have been 20 millions at least.
Welcome back to TH-cam, Michael! Seeing you face the camera reminded me of your early days at Pocketnow where you would sit in the sound booth and face the camera. A nice little bit of nostalgia to start off 2020!
Welcome back MrMobile. The same older generation vivomove HR offered back in 2017 was a really good buy. Really happy they stuck with the hybrid and updated it this time around! Thanks for the video. Will be upgrading to this model soon
Even the "expensive" one's are a lot more affordable than an Apple watch of any kind. You can easily replace the battery and make these last 10 years. Have fun trying to use your Apple or Samsung watch after 10 years, or even 3... Then pay another 500!
As always, a great review, Michael. Not really a fan of the audio from the Bluetooth mic you are using in some of the cuts, but at least you can be understood. Keep reviewing those watches. You're the best at it
Welcome back, dude! First off, I loved how different this video is compared to the others (can't say I loved it more than your old "voiceover-only" format, but I also can't say I loved it less), there was just an instance (at 3:50) where it felt a bit weird to hear you talking without your lips moving. As for the MARQ Captain review, I know I don't have an interest in *buying* it, but I'm sure other followers will agree with me that we'd sure like to watch a review about it. In part because we like watching every video you release, but in my case also because each review helps to paint a clearer perspective about where smartwatches are going and to find out what caught your eye about it. Anyway, thanks for all the great content!
They would be so nice if only they were using e-ink. Using less power and the option to have a screen of your choice always on. The Fossil is close but no touch screen and not near the quality of the Garmin. Battery life on the Fossil however is awesome. OLED might seem stunning at first but as soon you walk out of the store it's clear that it comes with a very high cost. E-ink or transflective is the way to go on smart watches. It's not a multimedia device to watch movies on! True full details always on display are so underrated!
I really want more of these hybrid watches. I will forever want an analogue watch, but having smartwatch features as well without sacrificing the glorious mechanical parts is exactly what I want. Hopefully there are more options coming in the future, including more aesthetic choices (I've got a somewhat particular aesthetic preference for my watches which isn't really fulfilled by any smartwatch yet, but the hybrids are getting close).
Great review 👍🏼 Id love to hear more on the Marq. I’m in a smart watch limbo where I’ve started buying analog watches again in appreciation of the engineering that goes into them. Mainly because I’m bored of smart watches. That is until I saw you mention the Garmin Marq...!
Cool tech and hope it comes along better. I'm currently using the Mi Band 4 and other than needing better looks, it really does what I need. Hope you had a good holiday period. Keep up the good work Mr Mobile.
Just saying, Garmin introduced the hidden display hybrid feature a good time (1-2 years) before Fossil. It was called Vivomove HR, which would technically be the predecesor for this watch.
I'm still happy with my Gear S3 Classic. It's a great looking watch, has a stellar choice of straps, and I can stretch the battery life out to three days.
@@shahmirkhan5373 I'm not sure if it is just my imagination but I swear the battery discharges faster when I'm not wearing the watch, other than that no issues. I've had the Gear S3 since July 2018, I got it second hand from eBay for £200.
Happy New Year to you! I have always enjoyed your top quality videos and this is no exception. I particularly like how you have started to talk to the camera, rather than from the editing suite. Please keep it up, it adds a certain je ne sais quoi
Good to see you Micheal.. I saw your post earlier about what happened with your channel and I am glad you got it sorted out. Sorry you had to deal with this with the new year.. anyway, happy new year to you 😊
I hate smart watches. They look like they are meant for children. HOWEVER I love tracking my health so the combo of analog and digital is perfect. I could not imagine a better watch.
Nice video as always. Glad to have you back. I really hope that you achieve the success you deserve on this 2020 (more than million subs) Keep the good work!
Dear Michael, you can review a tyre and we will watch it. Absolutely top notch level, love it. I am totally confused as to which smartwatch to buy which can basically tell me the path I covered, how much time I took, etc etc. Your reviews are just like the supercharger boost to the Naturally Aspirated engine. You are awesome!!
I appreciated this review and appreciate you lightly touching on the companion phone apps for the watches. I have a withings steel sport HR and like a lot of its features, but it's app really shines and keeps me in that system - will you be talking more about phone apps in the future as part of the review? I know they change over time but so do smart watch features. Would you consider doing a smart watch buying guide/very general overview of several?
this is unexpected from gps company i really like the classiness of it maybe I'll buy it as my first (modern) smart watch one day as i already have the casio cal watch(if that even count as one) . and yes.. I'm glad you're now "in-control" of your channel again kinda worried me when the profile pic missing
That is pretty innovative but truth be told, the future is high res fast transition colour eInk, for realistic faced daylight readable power sipping goodness.
Welcome back Michael and thanks for the review. I've been very happy with the previous gen Vivomove and was thinking of getting the exact Luxe model you reviewed (silver background screen). I'm worried though about the screen legibility in bright light conditions (indoors on a sunny morning or outside shade - i suppose in direct sunlight it will be kind of useless like it's predecessor). If you could share your opinion on this i'd be grateful. Cheers!
That's spooky. I literally left a comment a couple weeks ago to do the marx captain smartwatch but thought it was unlikely due to the price. Would love to see a review!

I think this is a genius smart watch design. More and more I've felt having a whole screen on your wrist is a little redundant.
And yes, I'd love to see a review of the Marq Captain.

First minute : Wow, finally this is my next watch.

better looks better displays and higher prices haha
@@branpod it sort of is for a watch that will be obsolete in 2 / 3 years.
@@huzcer I dont see why this will be obsolete? Garmin supports gps watches older than a lot of the audience here.

@@mitchellsteindler notwithstanding support, technologically it will be obsolete
I see that you're trying talking to the camera more and not just voice over b roll. I like it. It helps reinforce the conversational flow of your reviews.
I was looking for that comment, that's exactly what I think. It feels "better" and "closer".
4:36 Exactly everyone! One low battery warning is enough to let you know and get you searching for the charger! Please!
Seriously! I've been saying this since 2003, watching my friend's Nokia kill itself telling her 6 times an hour its battery was dying. ugh.
@@TheMrMobile I know right. It's so annoying. Like it's trying to get you even more paranoid that is going to drain itself.
It’s like it pretends you will just stand up in the middle of a meeting and leave the room to charge the watch if it bothers you enough 😂
@@MrJleonp 🤣
Glad to see another upload after the incident!

Mr Mobile as usual killing these reviews! These hybrid Garmin watches are awesome 🔥
I have to tell you. I watch all the major tech reviewers out there and you are, by far, my favorite. I refuse to spend my money on a piece of tech without watching your review first.
I'm probably gonna get a hybrid when they are perfected a bit more.
Me too
Same here
this is the most intelligent and helpful review I have ever watched... I'm impressed by that guy ! Thanks for this detailed evaluation MrMobile !
this looks like something out of a spymovie or an iron man movie
Finally managed to log back in to your account. I'm so happy for you
I'm all-in on the Garmin ecosystem and a watch enthusiast. The STANDARD 20mm lug width is one of the nicest stats on this watch. I already have a bunch of 20mm straps and tossed the default blue strap that comes with the Luxe back in the box.
Man, I am so GLAD your channel is still up.
This is the first time I’ve seen a watch that genuinely tempts me away from the galaxy watch I’ve been using for a while. Great video.

Glad to see the incident didn't shake you off. Another well written review. This is something i might get my hands on. It looks so classy!
Not even exaggerating. You're the only Tech reviewer whose video lights me up as soon as I see those idiosyncratic thumbnails. Keep going Michael!
Welcome back MrMobile. The same older generation vivomove HR offered back in 2017 was a really good buy. Really happy they stuck with the hybrid and updated it this time around!
Thanks for the video. Will be upgrading to this model soon
I hope Citizen comes out with a smart watch hybrid using its Eco drive technology. Never having to worry about a battery has made it my daily driver
Even the "expensive" one's are a lot more affordable than an Apple watch of any kind. You can easily replace the battery and make these last 10 years. Have fun trying to use your Apple or Samsung watch after 10 years, or even 3... Then pay another 500!
Never been so happy to see one of your reviews, bud. Welcome back.
Glad you're back, these TH-cam streets wouldn't be the same without MrMobile telling us to stay mobile
As always, a great review, Michael. Not really a fan of the audio from the Bluetooth mic you are using in some of the cuts, but at least you can be understood. Keep reviewing those watches. You're the best at it
Garmin: your power level is over 9000

Glad your back and eagerly awaiting the long-term review. Especially as it relates to life on the water.
First time I almost got interested in a hybrid watch, then you crushed it haha. Good review. Happy year ahead!
Glad you got your channel back Yes please do the review of your watch!
I absolutely love the new talking head segments where you speak to the camera sitting down, great idea

I really like the way this video was organized! Its cool to see your face talking to us, it’s a really good blend!
I don't care what the product is, if you make a review of it, I'm watching it. Onto another great year Mr. Mobile 👍🏾
A marq captain review would be great! Thanks Mrmobile! Glad to have you back!
I love the new pattern of your video where you have enough face time.. This was the only thing missing out on your earlier videos.. Fan for life ❤️
