TicWatch Pro is a multilayered smartwatch with a second screen that lasts for 30 days

Two-face

Craig Grannell

Smartwatches are power-hungry devices – not ideal when you’re many miles from a charger, gawping at a black display and desperate to know what the time is. Enter Mobvoi’s TicWatch Pro (£219.99). Launched today, this premium Wear OS smartwatch flings notifications your way, tracks steps, and lets you pay for things using NFC. But when it’s idle, a low-power FSTN LCD atop the OLED takes over. This extends battery life to two full days of usage, along with being actually possible to see in sunlight. If that’s still not enough watch time, power up the FSTN-only Essential Mode, which limits you to the time, steps tracking, and heart-rate monitoring, but will keep the TicWatch Pro going for 30 days.

I’m a regular contributor to Stuff magazine and Stuff.tv, covering apps, games, Apple kit, Android, Lego, retro gaming and other interesting oddities. I also pen opinion pieces when the editor lets me, getting all serious about accessibility and predicting when sentient AI smart cookware will take over the world, in a terrifying mix of Bake Off and Terminator.

Areas of expertise

Mobile apps and games, Macs, iOS and tvOS devices, Android, retro games, crowdfunding, design, how to fight off an enraged smart saucepan with a massive stick.
