New 4100 watches coming soon? - Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
as far as I know, currently the only smartwatch with 4100 at the market is the TicWatch 3 Pro.
Soon the Black Friday will take place and I wonder if there will be more options in the market with the 4100 chip.
What do you think?

I did a research during China double 11. It looks pro3 is the only developed brand with 4100

4100 is definitely a good thing to have in a watch!

It is very quiet about what 4100 smartwatches are upcoming. I have the Fossil Gen 5, but the battery life is poor like all other Wear OS watches, apart from the Ticwatch Pro 3 and the untethered GPS barely works. I would like a watch with a similar battery life to the Ticwatch but to have Wireless charging, not a crappy proprietary charger so I will wait unless the Ticwatch goes for silly money on Black Friday.

Currently Tic watch is recognized as the only watch with sdw4100.
Personally, I'm hoping for the ONEPLUS watch, but it has been postponed indefinitely...

I think TicWatch 3 Pro is the only one with 4100

Which Android Wear 2 Watch?

I am looking into a new Android Wear 2 watch, but can't really decide what the smartest buy is. Obviously taste makes this a loaded question, but if you were to buy a fully loaded AW2 Watch, which would it be?
The new Casio (no Heart Sensor), Huawei Watch 2 or ?
I like the looks of the Tizen based S3 Classic, but that nonexistent app store makes it a no go.
What would you recommend?
I like my Asus zenwatch 3.
I can't say enough good things about the Huawei 1. I bought it and the HW2 Classic at the same time and the HW1 is much better for me.
I tried both Zenwatch 3 and Huawei watch 2 international edition. I think I like the huawei more.

Need a new watch?!

So I am looking for an Wear OS watch. Any ideas for a good watch and overall good. I had a Sony smart watch 3 and it was nice for what it was but looking for something better. Got a Nexus 6p for my phone.
Maybe Huawei Watch 2 or Ticwatch Pro.

If you want a cheap but good quality wear OS device, I suggest Ticwatch E. Changeable straps, android oreo, 24hr battery life, good build quality.
I can recommend the TicWatch Pro. A really nice device. First I had a Ticwatch E, but it's a plastic device and the haptical feeling is really cheap.
In terms of quality and design i can recomand emporio armani hugo boss ot tommy hifigher watch but in terms of features and battery all three are averege. Ticwatch pro is best option on marchet rigt now but all big producers are lawnching theyre new watches like huawei watch 3, lg urban 3, moto 360 3rd gen all are wright around the corner.

I really enjoy my Fossil Sport. Battery lasts me a day and half to two. Good for fitness, waterproof, and has the new chipset so it should only get better with the next WearOS update.
Also it's on sale now for less than $200 so it's a steal!

I got a fossil q g4 explorer and the Micheal Kors I like em both
I was finally time to retire my gear s2
Im a mechanic and its lasted over a year no issues But I the battery is killed over in the last few weeks
Is it still OK to "resurrect" a 1 year old post? Damn, last time I used xda was a life ago.. Anyway, back here for searching the same thing: Which smartwatch to buy.
I researched a bit and as for now, the 4 best choices are:
1) Fossil Sport
2) Ticwatch Pro
3) Huawei watch 2
4) Skagen Falster 2
But all of them are "some months old" already. So, not sure if waiting for the new generation or "f*** it imma get it anyway".
2) Ticwatch Pro
I have almost all Wear Watch (and Huawei 2) but the Ticwatch Pro is for far the better. 2nd LCD screen for always ON and not light emited like a lighthouse. Large OLED screen 1.4". Better battery life for all wear watch. Real innovation for a watch.
Last 4 posters: did you know that it's a year old thread?
Anyway I'm using Fossil Gen 3 and happy with it. The Gen 4 only ads NFC...
If you you are interested in a ticwatch, there is now a limited $50 / €50 off using code "Mobvoi50TY" during checkout. Will make the Ticwatch Pro even a better price/performance

Help me to decide a smartwatch

Hi guys, I do not decide between 3 smartwatch, could you help me decide which one to buy?
Samsung galaxy watch comes with tyzen and rotating bezel
Huawey Watch 2 comes with android wear without rotating bezel
Huawey watch gt new model, I do not know if it's better than the Watch 2
Important points:
I think having a rotating bezel gives a positive point to the clock
So I have read tyzen is not well optimized strong point for android wear
Then i dont decide between samsung or huawey... By the way i love cool watch faces like fallout pip boy or super mario faces,..
Which of the two operating system / clock has the most support on wahtcfaces?
THANKS FOR YOUR TIME GUYS
Huawei Watch GT is just a Fitness tracker, almost zero smart.
Huawei 2 very Good smartwacth, maybe the best for Health and battery life but Wear OS little annoying.
Tizen Watch, not bad at all, more stable than Wear but not many app, but many watchface.

Well maybe pokemon go no... But android wear is better on this compatiblity point... Then +1 to huawey wath 2
Which is the best smartwatch then? XD
Yes Huawei Smartwatch 2 is the best of Wear Watch with better battery life. Just the screen really tiny with 1.2" vs 1.3" for Gear S3 or 1.4" for Ticwatch E. But all Wear Watch other Huawei 2 has a real bad battery life.
My vote goes for the Huawei watch. The Huawei Watch 2 is one of the most popular mens watches watches in recent time.
Some of the key features that give it an edge over Galaxy Watch are:
It comes in two editions (Sport and a Classic)
It has a 1.39 inch Amoled Display, which is much superior than Samsung’s 1.3 inch
The watch also boasts of a built-in coach functionality.
However, the Samsung Watch does possess one advantage which is it rotating bezel. It helps improve the interface.

Huawei watch 2 has an 1.2" display so really smaller than the 1.3" for samsung Galaxy watch (and S3). But some new smaller Galaxy watch has smaller display in 1.2" like the Gear S2.
1.39" is for the Huawei GT wich is not a smartwatch but an activity tracker.
Samsung Galaxy Watch is the best rated in reviews, has decent battery life and some apps that you can install.
Huawei Watch GT also has great battery life but it's a brand new closed platform with no app capability and Huawei don't have the best reputation for updates and bug fixes. Could be a great platform in the future but it's a hell of a risk at the moment.
Huawei Watch 2 is Android Wear so lots of apps but OS is so poor on battery life meaning no continuous HR monitoring or sleep tracking.
I would go for the Samsung - good platform and some apps.

[Q] Is it worth to buy?

I don't know if I'm right to post it here, but I have one single doubt before choosing between Le Pro3 or something like Redmi 7 (that is really slightly cheaper). I was looking at this device's xda forum and found some people reporting that their phones got suddenly hard bricked. I wanna know how common is this issue. Could I buy it or probably some unexpected death will haunt my phone usage?
No, stick with Redmi. Too many risks involved with this one in particular. It wasn't released outside of China. The x720 and x722 are total bang-for-your-buck devices though. If you can get them for like $120 USD or something, then go for it

I completely agree with @sk8223
Absolutely the Le pro3's with the Snapdragon 821 or 820 processors are a fantastic phone without a doubt. The problem is that some of those bargains at $120 and actually refurbished units and I have heard stories about the quality not being as good as the original.
Meanwhile the Redmi Note 7 Pro comes with a Snapdragon 675 and an excellent camera, modern bezels and if you buy the global version the software is excellent.
Yes, there are many great Roms for the Le Pro 3. However, the Le pro 3 will always be stuck with using an old kernel 3.18, and unfortunately updating kernel any further is a monumental task that is simply not going to happen. So in my opinion, I also feel that you are much better off with a New Redmi Note 7 pro
Biggest issue with the LePro3 is the usb port burning out and the battery wearing out. Both are replaceable but it's an involved process that requires a heat gun to remove the screen.
The parts are cheap though. I got the usb board for $5, a replacement battery for $20 and replacement screen for about $17. These are cheaper than iPhone parts!
Other than that, 4 GB of Ram and Snapdragon 821 cpu is great.
Have any Le Pro 3 owners switched to a Note 7? My Le Pro 3 Elite is working fine but I have been thinking that the Redmi might be a worthy upgrade.
I've owned the Pro 3 x727 since release. The USB port and battery are fine, it can still hit 8+ hours of SOT. Would I suggest the Pro 3 to someone in 2019? No. It's easy to find nicer phones at a similar price. For example, the 3a was going for ~150 after trade in.
Some newer phones have better thermals- which allows them to maintain their peaks longer. If you play games this is obvious. Let's say you're playing PUBG @60fps and recording, the Pro 3 will heat up and throttle. That 60 will soon turn into a stuttery mess.
Then you have to consider sensors. Pro 3 lacks a wide angle and telephoto lens. Thus, limiting the type of images a user can capture. In addition, 64GB doesn't provide much room, at least not for me.
The Note 7 has an SD slot, modern design, and a taller display. Seems like a no-brainer.
One thing I would keep note of it whether the redmi has the band's you need for lte. I know it depends on the cell provider and carrier. But a lot of these international version phones tend not to have the same extended bands needed for indoor coverage in the US

Ticwatch Pro 3 different info on WearOS vs FTSN vs Mobvoi app

Is anyone else seeing this on Ticwatches that the info on the FTSN is different to whats on wearOS.
For example in the screenshot below the FTSN shows i hvae done 4073 steps while WearOS shows 1435. If i go into the Mobvoi app it shows different info from the other two.
I can see there are reports on the mobvoi forum of incorrect counting of steps but i dont see any that details different steps between FSTN vs WearOS vs App and i opened a thread on their forum to report this it was not posted. mobvoi seem to screen the threads and responses and only allow some. I can understand some differences between them but 4k vs 1.5k it seems like something bigger is going on.

The Ticwatch pro 3 is a cool watch, but it's junk compared to my Active 2. WearOS has gone to the dumps and now they are partnered with Samsung anyway and the Ultra is 299. No way is that worth that price. I returned the Ticwatch and went back to my Active 2. I don't see a good future for smart watches.
This Wear OS 3 Situation Really Sucks
Today should have been a big day for Fossil. The company announced its long-awaited Fossil Gen 6 smartwatch, the follow-up to the mostly enjoyable Gen 5, with upgraded specs across the board that should provide a dramatically improved experience. Unfortunately, the story from today’s...

i agree wear OS is useless and only seems to be getting worse.
just checked it on mine(pro3 LTE) and there is no difference
perhaps it has been fixed since your first post?
