These Aren't Your Typical Smartwatches

Apple and Samsung don’t just dominate the smartphone market in the US; they also make most of the smartwatches I see on a daily basis. So for this video, I wanted to introduce you to three less-common smartwatches. Whether they'll be counted among the best smartwatches of 2019 remains to be seen; but each of these is interesting in its own way. Join me for a look at the Mobvoi TicWatch Pro 4G LTE; the Casio ProTrek WSD-F30; and the Garmin MARQ Captain - and be sure to vote in my Smartwatch 2019 Review Poll [in the Community tab on my Channel page] so you can have a say in which of these gets the full review treatment!

There's a weird confluence of worlds when you are both a tech guy and watch guy and you're watching this from both perspectives. When Michael said that the Garmin was expensive, my watch brain was expecting something like 10k. Oh okay, less than an Oris Aquis. But my tech brain is like... no smart watch is worth that much, that's the price of a laptop.

@harveyezihe 5 жыл бұрын

Lol. I understand the confusion 😂

@birtalanlorant5572 5 жыл бұрын

Yep. I thought the same. "Expensive? By watch measures that's 5k on the lower end and everything above. In tech? 800$ and above." When I heard the pricetag (it's a cool watch tbh, looks like a Tag Heuer Calibre 16), my jaw just dropped. For 1500$ you can get an Oris Aquis Date, and for the 300$ remaining you can get that ticwatch pro 4g.

Garmin its nice and still rocking F3HRS but Marq series its obsolete for me not because the price but for total separation of capabilities. Internally are these watches are same but you dont have same functionality by software and you cant download these specific applications. Garmin watches was always for active people and its now useless if i do paragliding and week later yachting and month later week in wild. Also that comparison its lite unfair for Garmin because you compare absolute top from Garmin. You could compare Fenix 5 plus and which cost around 600usd and will left Casio and China in dust.

Just be careful. I have a friend that had his Fitbit watch die twice on him in just over a year, and apparently replacements don't reset the warranty clock so they wouldn't help him the second time it happened. Pissed him off so much he switched to Garmin.

@Spills51 5 жыл бұрын

As with the other response post I would recommend getting the extended warranty from squaresoft (I believe its $40 if you get it initially, 50 if within a month) so instead of a 1 year warranty you get a 2 year. Unless you tend to flip fitness trackers every year or so. The Versa is a decent watch for fitness, not so much as a smartwatch. Get is on sale for $170 or so...But I wouldn't pay $200 cause there is always someplace that is running a sale for them. I had the Versa but then returned it for the Ionic cause it was on sale for $200. Again, decent Fitness Tracker, decent build, not a great smartwatch.

If the MARQ Captain is too pricey, check out the Quatics. Honestly, Garmin has a wide range of watches at various price points. This is definitely on the high-end, but was designed to be that way. The resolution is low to improve battery life. The features and gorgeous design are where the price comes in. The Hauwei GT is the sweet spot though.

That TicWatch looks great but I'm guessing that battery "sipping" is gonna stop being a thing as soon as LTE lands. Does the existing non-LTE model have that same screen? If so, might be my next watch. I keep switching back off Wear OS onto my Pebble Time largely because of the screen in sunlight.
