Mobvoi TicWatch S2 : Not a looker, even by smartwatch standards

The more expensive new TicWatch looks like someone scaled up an Action Man accessory

Still a cheap way of getting Wear OS; Feels light on the wrist; Nice, punchy AMOLED screen;

It looks like a Happy Meal toy; Uses a chip from 2016; Weak battery life;

TicWatch S2 review

The Ticwatch S2 is one of the best-value Wear OS watches around. A heart rate sensor and GPS make it seem ready for prime time fitness tracking. However focusing on exercise highlights that the Ticwatch S2 is more of a pain to use than the Fitbit Ionic, Samsung Galaxy Watch or Huawei Watch GT. Battery life isn’t bad for a Wear OS band, but it’s still dismal. And this thing is largely a style vacuum, which is a bit of an issue for a watch.
