I have a ticwatch pro 3, and I have mixed feelings about it.
I was pretty happy with it early on, but the software was always a little hit-and-mis. In particular the Google voice assistant stopped working a year or so ago, and when they finally rolled out the WearOS 3 update a few weeks ago, it just removed that feature (and several others) rather than fixing it.
I am a big fan of the dual-display with a super-low-power, sunlight-readable LCD and a richer OLED behind it.
I also really liked having a user-assignable hardware button, although mine stopped working after a couple of years, and apparently the WearOS 3.0 "upgrade" took away that feature too.
- TrianguloY 3y agoI don't use the assistant (in fact I have it disabled) so I personally wouldn't mind. The user assignable button is wonderful (the pixel has two buttons: you can configure nothing of them) really sad they removed the feature too. The dual display was my biggest lost. I need always on, and very few watches support it. With the pixel I get 2 days of battery with it, which I've become used to, but I would love to have that lcd display. As for wear os: I had a moto sport with wear 1. It was basic but functional. Then it was upgraded to wear 2 and it improved a lot, I really liked it. But then the wear 3 was released (which that watch never got) and it's like google forgot everything else. Now I have wear 4, which I don't feel particularly happy about it, mainly because of the horrible material theme (seriously, everything is sized as if you used your full thumb, padding everywhere, wear 2 had almost double the information visible)
- nfriedly 3y ago* correction: it's now on Wear OS 3.5 after the recent "upgrade". I'm not sure what it was on before that, but it might have been 3.0.
