My budget is around the price of these watches, any other brand gets too expensive in my country.
My requirements are:
Basic fitness tracking (steps, heart rate, calorie, sleep)
Decent battery (2-3 days is enough)
Good design
Google Map
2-3 days battery life, you can delete Ticwatch E from your list

Forget price and not interested in looks.
What is the best Android Wear device today?
Need Android Wear
Best Battery life (ambient mode always)
Heart rate
I think the Motorola watch is out poor battery life (can not keep it on ambient mode)
The Sony Smartwatch 3 misses on heart rate monitoring (it locks up on me intermittently once every couple weeks to month)
But I can not think of any other watches.
.... holding out for now I guess, hopefully the next generation will be better.

I don't think the Sony has a heart rate monitor at all.
Or did you mean your heart locks up on you every couple of weeks? If so, you need a doctor and not a smart watch.

LG G Watch R. Watch battery last me 2 days easily with ambient mode on and has a heart rate sensor. And imo the most normal looking watch design wise.
I loved having a working heart rate monitor on my BT tethering watch, zeblase Crystal. unfortunately, the heart rate chip failed, which got me seriously looking at Android watches. I was pretty impressed with the D5 and D5+, since you can tweak to improve battery life. Then No. 1 announced the D7 with a very nice 500 mAH battery, which they claimed has 5 days of standby life. I began waiting for some good, detailed reviews and, bless him, Smartwatch Ticks delivered. Well, his online review and updated RL testing, which you'll find in the comments below the video, reveal a smartwatch with improved battery life and decent recharge times. He got 29 hours with BT and WIFI on, a SIM card installed and screen brightness at 50% (GPS was turned off). Recharge to 100% took 90 minutes. When in conservation mode with the SIM card out and everything shut off and screen brightness at 25%, he got 76.5 hours. The best thing for me is that No. 1 will shortly be bring out a sporty twin version of this watch with a silicon band, the D8. I think this will be my new smartwatch, when they're available. It's not just the battery size that's helping achieve better battery life, they also used a battery-friendly design, dual core architecture rather than quad core and lower resolution screen. With that said, it's got a beautful screen and performs well. I'm hoping Smartwatch Ticks gets the D8 to review, too. If you're looking for an Android smartwatch with good battery life, I'd suggest that you check out Smartwatch Tick's review (it looks like there's finally a decent update to Fundowear's fitness app, too).

Thats what I am thinking too!. I have a lem5 and love it, but battery is maybe 5 or 6 hours with minimal use.... So I was looking at the D7 and blown away by smartwatchtick's yourtube!!!!!! Then I happened to see the no1. D8 from their website and I am sold!
With everything off (wifi, BT and GPS) I have 20% per 24h battery drain so it's pretty nice result.
Hi Guys,
Been searching for a cheap tablet with reasonable performance to run around the house, what's your take on these 2 options?
pros and cons?
My own opinion:
The recently released the Huawei has a better and modern layout / design and a fresh battery.
The Tab S2 has better screen, better performance.
About the same price at the moment.
Any help would be appreciated.
Similar to the m5 lite there also the galaxy pad a8 2018, but unfortunately lack of fingerprint reader...
Tapatalked with A8 2018
There is probably lots more support for the Tab S2 if that's important to you.
I bought SM-T719 last week for 299Eur. Nice small tablet. Amoled is great, came with android 7 preinstalled, battery has no drain when idle, is fast, LTE did not try yet.
EDIT : the battery life : I still had 80% battery left after 95minutes of browsing (on-screen time), so that makes the battery life 475 minutes, or almost 8 hours. I have the tablet on for couple of days. That is very good battery life.
My one year old Ticwatch 3 pro battery started to deplete at high rate. My watch had passed its warranty period.
One month ago, the battery gave me 2-3 full days. For some reason the watch was store for more than a month in my drawer. Lately after full charges I barely get 12 hours. It can deplete 50% after a full charge in 5-6 hours while lying on the table.
I even went into recovery mode and performed a factory reset. To no avail.
Mobvoi support claims that it is past warrenty and so far did not approve to send if for repair.
Please advice.
Thanks.
It's like storing escooter over winter w/out charging -> 500$ battery dead. Especially if the quality isn't high which typically isn't.
I used to try fancy smart watches like this since 2005 (Samsung) and returned them each time. Charging so frequently is a joke. I just returned Tickwatch 3 Pro too. The battery lasted only for 2 days despite fancy 2nd display.
With Garmin, i charge only 20x per year, so the battery would last for a decade even if it was crap (which it isn't like experienced). Forget the toys, get Garmin.
There are a lot of devices and good brands. But wich are the best brands' smartwatches with highest accurate monitoring for health, sport and battery duration?
