Third-party reviews

What customers like about Mobvoi TicWatch Pro 2020

  • Innovative dual-layered display (AMOLED and FSTN LCD) that enhances readability in sunlight and saves battery
  • Increased 1GB RAM significantly improves system fluidity and reduces lag compared to the original 512MB model
  • Rugged and durable build with MIL-STD-810G military-grade certification and Gorilla Glass 3
  • Comfortable hybrid strap featuring genuine leather on the outside and sweat-resistant silicone on the inside
  • Comprehensive feature set for the price, including GPS, NFC for Google Pay, and a built-in speaker/microphone

What customers don't like about Mobvoi TicWatch Pro 2020

  • Uses the aging Qualcomm Snapdragon Wear 2100 chipset, which can still feel sluggish during heavy tasks or app installations
  • Chunky and bulky design that may feel too large or masculine for users with smaller wrists
  • Underwhelming battery life in full 'Smart Mode,' typically lasting only 1.5 to 2 days under heavy use
  • LCD secondary screen lacks a backlight, making it difficult to read in dark environments without waking the AMOLED display
  • GPS accuracy can be inconsistent or slow compared to dedicated fitness trackers from brands like Garmin
  • Software updates from Mobvoi can be slow, and the Wear OS platform sometimes feels cluttered or unoptimized

Verdict

The Mobvoi TicWatch Pro 2020 is a rugged Wear OS smartwatch featuring a unique 1.39-inch dual-layer display that stacks a high-resolution AMOLED (400x400) panel under a low-power FSTN LCD for superior sunlight readability and power management. Internally, it is equipped with 1GB of RAM—a key upgrade over its predecessor—alongside 4GB of storage and the Qualcomm Snapdragon Wear 2100 chipset. Its durable build meets MIL-STD-810G standards and carries an IP68 water-resistance rating, while the hybrid leather and silicone strap caters to both formal and athletic settings. The watch's standout pro is its versatile battery life, offering 2 to 5 days in Smart Mode and up to 30 days in Essential Mode, supported by built-in GPS, NFC for Google Pay, and comprehensive heart rate and sleep tracking. However, notable cons include the use of an aging processor, the lack of an LCD backlight for visibility in dark environments, and reported inconsistencies in GPS and heart rate accuracy during high-intensity workouts.
