Third-party reviews

What we like about Mobvoi Ticwatch Gth

  • Exceptional battery life, often lasting 7 to 10 days on a single charge
  • Highly affordable price point, providing good value for a entry-level smartwatch
  • Includes a wide array of health sensors for the price, such as skin temperature and SpO2 monitoring
  • Lightweight and comfortable design suitable for 24/7 wear and sleep tracking
  • Solid build quality featuring a metal case and 5ATM water resistance for swimming
  • Simple and straightforward user interface that is easy to navigate

What we don't like about Mobvoi Ticwatch Gth

  • Lacks built-in GPS, requiring a connected smartphone for distance tracking during outdoor activities
  • Basic notification system that only displays text; users cannot reply or interact with messages
  • Inaccurate or inconsistent readings from some health sensors, particularly heart rate and step counting
  • Proprietary magnetic charger can be finicky and disconnects too easily
  • The Mobvoi companion app is often described as outdated or prone to sync issues
  • Small 1.55-inch TFT display is surrounded by large bezels and lacks the vibrancy of AMOLED screens
  • Odd or 'wiry' font choice for notifications that some users find difficult to read

Verdict

The Mobvoi TicWatch GTH is a budget-focused smartwatch featuring a 1.55-inch TFT touch display with 360 x 320 resolution, housed in a metal case with 5ATM water resistance. Key characteristics include its 24/7 health monitoring suite, which tracks skin temperature, blood oxygen (SpO2), heart rate, and respiration rate, alongside 14 workout modes and automatic activity detection. Its primary pros are an impressive battery life of up to 10 days from a 260mAh cell, a lightweight 32g design, and comprehensive health sensors usually found in more expensive models. However, notable cons include the lack of built-in GPS, a proprietary RTOS that lacks third-party app support, and basic notification features that do not allow for replies.
