Budget Apple Watch killer TicWatch launched in India
Beijing-based Mobvoi has made available its popular TicWatch smartwatches in India. The three premium models – the premium TicWatch Pro, the classic TicWatch C2 and the fitness-focused TicWatch E2 – currently available in the country are trendy and feature-packed to meet the needs of today’s smart and savvy Indian consumers. TicWatch smartwatch is currently available at Amazon. Mobvoi is also in talks with a few channel partners in India and plans to roll-out the watches across pan-India in the coming months.
Coming from the house of Mobvoi, a Google-backed company whose motto is pushing the boundaries of next-generation human-machine interaction with AI technology, TicWatch smartwatches are a perfect amalgamation of style, comfort and technology. The three models of the watch have been designed to suit the unique customer requirements in terms of fit, usability, design and battery life. AMOLED technology powers the display on the three watches. All models are powered by Wear OS by Google and works with phones running Android 6.0+ (excluding Go edition) or iOS Android 10.0+.
TicWatch Pro is seriously stylish and contemporary in design while at the same time being practical and technically impressive. A thickness of 12.6mm gives the smartwatch a sophisticated, bold and masculine look.

TicWatch Pro comes loaded with features, such as a heart rate sensor, IP68 water and dust resistance, built-in GPS, and NFC which supports Google PayTM. One impressive feature of the watch is the dual-layer display technology with two screens layered on top of each other, which gives it superior battery life and allows you to switch between AMOLED Smart Mode and FSTN Essential Mode that can elongate the battery life up to 30 days. A carbon fibre/stainless steel casing gives the watch a premium look and extra durability. TicWatch Pro is priced at Rs 22,999.
