Going out to ask in June launched the Ticwatch 2 smart watch, the new machine performance configuration to maintain the previous generation of MediaTek MT2601 (1.2G dual-core A7) +512M memory +4G storage +300mAh battery. But the body size has been reduced and replaced with an OLED screen, and new 3G, GPS, off-the-arm lock screen, constant light mode, wireless fast charge and other functions have been added, and the price has started at 999 yuan.
After half a month's use, it finally completed this may be the longest and deepest intelligent product evaluation in history. Many of the popular sciences, as well as the content and evaluation criteria for industry players and operators, lead to a long period of time and need to make good use of the floating directory in the lower right corner of the page.
Comparison of Ticwatch, inWatch T and Apple Watch parameters
Packaging and Accessories
Ticwatch2 has three versions of “Easy moving, classic, and fine porcelainâ€, each with different packaging. What we got this time was a classic version that was in the middle. The surface of the black box was a convex cloth with gilded slogans around it.
The packaging is simpler than expected, including accessories, wireless magnetic charging dock, charger and power cord.
The classic version and the fine porcelain version have built-in chip-type eSIM cards, which have the same network access license as mobile phones.
Cylindrical charger output power 5V/1A. But in fact, the power of the cradle is very small. With the charger of the mobile phone or even the USB interface of the computer, the charging speed will not be significantly different.
Magnetic suction wireless charging base diameter is slightly smaller than the table body, there are a lot of metal components estimated inside, weight and magnetic force are much larger than expected, the bottom is a whole piece of soft rubber pad for increasing friction, the watch is put The approximate location will be able to absorb, use more convenient
Ticwatch2 uses a traditional watch shape, the overall color value is good. The 42mm round dial is smaller than the 46mm of the previous generation, and the screen accounts for 73.5%. The official announcement is that the screen has the highest ratio of pure round smart watches. The main body of the watch body is brushed stainless steel. The left side is a round crown, and the plastic part of the right side back is a hidden touch area. The official name is “scratchâ€.
The biggest features are two: the crown is on the left by default (the system supports left and right rotation), and the dial glass is about 2mm above the body. The former is to give way to their own "tear" touch bar, which may be to reduce the thickness of the body, along with providing tactile tips on the edge of the screen.
In addition to the porcelain back cover used in the porcelain version, the Yuet and Classic versions of the Ticwatch2 are made of plastic. The PPG optical heart rate sensor in the middle is provided by Pixart (original phase) and claims greater accuracy and anti-interference ability.
The machine uses a 20mm universal strap, the original strap has a quick release design, whether it is a brown or black belt, the inside is light brown inside. The stainless steel buckle is relatively sleek and has a brushed texture.
Ticwatch2's design is very easy to get. The glossy metal case is just the front cover of the watch body, and the other 2/3 thickness is the black back cover, which greatly reduces the visual thickness. The model number and electrical specifications of the machine are recorded near the strap interface. At the top of the back cover is a speaker opening, with microphone and acoustic pressure equalization holes at the bottom instead of noise reduction on the phone. These openings are small, but because of the relatively high position and the cover of the strap, the problem of easy accumulation of dust is reduced to some extent.
Sony Smart Watch, LG G watch, famous Moto 360 and Ticwatch2
Ticwatch2, Moto 360, LG G watch and Sony Smart Watch strap
Although Ticwatch2 is slightly smaller in size, its thickness is not dominant. It differs from other "older" design styles. The only common point is that the straps are consumables. Whether it is silicone or leather, there will be obvious signs of use for more than half a year. In particular, leather straps, even if attention is paid to their maintenance, have a relatively short service life.
Ticwatch 2's body skeleton is a traditional watch, brushed stainless steel handles fine lines and works well. Although the Ticwatch 2 is only a 42mm dial, the screen is smaller than the Moto 360 with a 46mm dial, but the latter is a no-table design, but it is more hand-to-hand when it is worn.
To be honest, the author prefers the look of the original Moto 360 and the original Ticwatch, especially their straps without stitches... but the Ticwatch 2 with more sensors has better volume control and the strap is reduced to a more suitable Asian 20mm. Small users and most women are not too abrupt to wear and disguise their audience.
Wear
Ticwatch 2 has a normal overall feel and feels slightly worse than normal quartz wristwatches. It is a medium-upper level in smart watches. Three factors that affect the feel:
Weight and weight distribution: Yue moving, classic, fine porcelain (hereinafter referred to as low middle and high grade) are aluminum shell, steel shell, steel shell + ceramic back cover, and the weight is increasing obviously. The low-grade watch movement is surely the lightest and most comfortable. The weight is similar to an ordinary quartz watch. The weight of the mid-weight version is similar to that of a mechanical watch, and the high match is the weight of the gold watch. Only when the high version of the wrist is shaken, there will be a noticeable drag.
Appearance: The part that fits the wrist is the plastic of the curved edge, the contact area is not large, the foreign body sensation is lighter and more comfortable;
Strap: The leather strap has a good texture and was changed to a suture design with a slight increase in thickness, resulting in more prone to folds. The original leather strap is 20mm wide, and the narrower strap will no doubt be more breathable and more comfortable.
The major changes in hardware on Ticwatch 2 are the following:
Built-in SMD eSIM card can be independent 3G network, can send and receive telephone and SMS;
More GPS for maps and track recordings;
On the back of the infrared sensor, used to lock the screen off the wrist (password after entering the table to enter);
Other minor changes include the PPG optical heart rate meter, wireless fast charging, and linear motor addition.
screen
Ticwatch 2 was replaced by a 1.4-inch OLED screen from its predecessor, the 1.5-inch TFT, and the resolution increased to 400,400 with a PPI of 287. The AMOLED screen viewed on mobile phones is also a type of OLED. Its advantages are thinness, power saving, and high saturation (brilliant colors). For smart watches, the most important feature is the ability to turn off the pixels when displaying black, thereby increasing contrast and power savings.
Brightness: The system provides 5 brightness adjustments, the maximum brightness of about 420 nits, the brightness of the mobile phone is higher than most AMOLED screens, there is no pressure to see the time under the sun. However, the minimum brightness is high, and the minimum brightness is enough to cope with 90% of the scene. Cloudy and indoor are quite suitable, but looking at the middle of the night will be a bit too bright.
Fineness: Although the PPI is higher than the previous generation, Pentile is most likely to be used. The actual PPI has to be calculated at 6.7 fold. There is a noticeable graininess when you look closer. The problem of “split†edges on fonts and objects is also More obvious.
Color & viewing angle : The screen color is bright, and A screen is usually blue-green, but the degree is not obvious. Good viewing angle, after 135 degrees there will be a certain degree of brightness attenuation and color cast, but has been pressed to 170 degrees still see the screen content.
Reflective & Other : The light transmittance of the screen is not bad, and the reflection will not be too serious. Of course, the reflection under the big sun is still reflective. Compared with reflection, the thickness of the glass panel will be a bigger problem. Although it cannot be confirmed whether this is a full-fitting process, the surface layer and the display layer have a relatively obvious distance, and the feeling of a mobile phone is less obvious, to a certain extent. Affected the extreme viewing angle.
In general, this is a block-sized smart watch screen, although the fineness is general, but the brightness is sufficient, colorful. The most important is its OLED material, which is the physical basis of the constant light mode.
performance
System storage information
Hardware configuration: Smart watches often change shells without changing their minds. The Android Wear camp uses a shielded version of the Snapdragon 400 for multiple products. The Ticwatch 2 is directly followed by the performance of the previous generation, are MediaTek MT260 +512 M memory +4 G memory +300 mAh battery, MT260's CPU part is 1.2 G dual-core A7, parameters and watch on the Nine Dragons 400 almost coincide.
Performance and fluency: This configuration is close to the 2012 thousand-yuan machine, and its absolute performance is weak. However, Android Wear and the TicWear system for out-of-the-box questions are all specially designed systems. There is almost no background, and the fluency and response speed are also acceptable. It takes about 40 seconds to power on, and it takes only 2 and 3 minutes to reset the system. Map loading, WeChat under Android Wear compatibility mode, and the speed of manned people are all normal. It can be seen that the performance is tight. However, only two QR codes built-in Alipay can be turned on very slowly. Optimization in this area needs to be improved.
System and storage: Internal memory takes up 1.19G, analog SD card 1.22G. The former is used to store application data. After installing 20 apps, the remaining 860 MB is almost impossible to run out of.
Basic modules: touch, vibration, volume and sound quality
Touch test
Touch: The screen only supports single touch, and the touch response speed is normal. Through the painting application test, there is no disconnection position, but the screen edge sensitivity is general, and the edge is more sensitive to the tangent line than the vertical line, but the watch system does not need to operate precisely. This feature has no effect on the actual operation.
Vibration: Strength must be enough, and it is already strong enough to make the author's obsessive-compulsive disorder feel distressed for the power and life. The system has two strong and common gears available, but the vibration intensity does not seem to be different (because the linear motor can not be adjusted?)
Volume: The volume of the maximum volume and normal people's speech is slightly weaker, and indoor use is OK, but basically no need to count on the outside in the outdoors to remind yourself.
Sound quality: A slight break in the high frequency, and the others still make do. It may be that manufacturers think that the possibility of using watches to listen to music is negligible. Many smart watches do not have speakers. Even if they do, the sound quality will not be too good, and it will rarely allow the watch to have the ability to broadcast songs independently.
Voice quality: The voice quality when talking with a built-in patch-type eSIM card is better than talking over a mobile phone (the latter is a double compromise of the Bluetooth+speaker), and the overall sound quality is more general.
Ringtones: The aesthetics of several ringtones are pretty good, but there are only 4 types of ringtones and you cannot import other music files yourself.
RF Modules: Bluetooth, GPS, WiFi and 3GIf no accident, all these RF modules are integrated in MediaTek MT260 SoC, because the back of the fuselage is plastic, the design of the antenna part is less difficult than the previous generation, and the signal strength should be better.
Sports app screenshot, GPS track record on the far right
Bluetooth: In the two weeks of use, there is no problem of Bluetooth disconnection. The connection distance is only 6 or 7 meters. It is close to low-power products such as the millet bracelet, and is weaker than Samsung Smart Gear and other smart watch products.
GPS: The speed of searching satellites is slow, and the position accuracy is also relatively general. The overall availability is not high. One of the official propaganda points is that users can go for running exercises only by wearing a watch, but it may be a problem of GPS strength and accuracy. After the actual sport mode is turned on, the app will recommend that users connect to the mobile phone and use the Internet. However, even if the phone is connected, the cold start time of GPS needs more than 10 minutes, and the signal is not good or the speed is too fast (in the car) will cause a very obvious position drift.
WiFi and 3G: It is difficult to observe because the frequency of use is too low and the intensity is not directly displayed. However, at least the number of WiFi signals found was close to that of ordinary mobile phones, and the communication module did not show disconnection in the elevator and garage. Of course, because the ground floor uses Unicom's services, Unicom's 3G coverage in poor places such as second and third-tier cities can barely run 2G.
Sensors: motion sensing, compass, heart rate sensor
Gravity sensors, gyroscopes, and accelerometers: The three sensors used to sense spatial position and motion will directly affect the somatosensory functions such as raising the hand and turning the hand to wake up the voice assistant, but the sensitivity is too high and it will burn. These sensor sensitivity Ticwatch 2 normal levels just smart watch / bracelet, raising his hand and millet bracelet bright speed 2 / Gear Fit no significant products respectively, and there are obvious gaps Apple Watch;
Geomagnetism: Also called the electronic compass, it is obviously added for the independent navigation function. However, our test machines often point to cold after the start, have to restart to resolve, resulting in very low availability, do not know if it is a case or common problem, if it is a software problem, hope to repair as soon as possible;
Heart rate sensor: The accuracy is relatively high, and it is close to the heart rate data of the Gear Fit wristband. Even relatively accurate data can be measured when running. However, the data update frequency is once every 10 seconds, which is slower than many sports bracelets. In addition, if we do not know whether it is a bug or whether there is an algorithm based on the speed of movement to correct the result, when the author sits in the car and enters the motion tracking mode, the heart rate value will be significantly higher by about 20 or so, giving a little discount to the data credibility.
Built-in SIM card
The Ticwatch 2 with a mid-to-high profile has a built-in patch-type eSIM card that uses live communications from Unicom's 3G networks (GSM and WCDMA formats). In the second and third tier cities, 3G does not have a network. It is a high-probability event. Fortunately, the watch function has low demand for network speed, and running 2G is not a big problem.
Register to go to WeChat public account or the official website of the People's Communications official website. The process is summarized as follows: fill in the ICCID (in fact, the SIM card ID code) and personal information on the package, select the number and package, take the package, ID card and upload your own photos Waiting for real-name certification review.
Number information: The first batch of numbers are all located at the north of Guangshen, starting with 170/171. On August 7, the available range is 0XX-7XX, and the audit time ranges from a few hours to more than half a day. In addition, it is recommended to go to the Minsheng Communications official website to choose a number (a number filtering function).
Fees and Packages: There is a pre-stored credit fee of 30 yuan when you buy a number. Provides monthly rent and 9.9 yuan two packages, voice is 0.15 yuan / minute, flow 0.15 yuan / MB, SMS 0.1 yuan / article, answer free. The 9.9 yuan package includes 30 minutes of talk and 50MB of traffic, which is now a lot of children's wristband settings.
Go out and ask the official to send 100M of traffic, effective for 6 months. In addition, the caller ID is 5 yuan/month, but it is of little significance and it is not recommended. Support AliPay, WeChat and UnionPay payment, and then pay online. It should be noted that after the number is activated, it cannot be returned, and maintenance and replacement may cause some problems.
Hardware section summary
After previous trials and errors, Ticwatch 2 has many targeted designs and clearer trade-offs. Visually thin body, appearance and color value is good, weight control and material control are remarkable. But hardware can be seen everywhere to make choices for life, and the previous generation of processors and batteries, speakers with sound quality and volume, weak Bluetooth and GPS.
These are in exchange for the whole body is smaller than the previous generation of a circle of the body, and slightly better life than the previous generation, but the overall life is only the middle level of smart watches, specifically detailed below. After all, this is only a table, and the author still agrees with the product selection decision.
Ticwatch 2 is equipped with a ticwear 4.2.0 system based on Android 5.1, which is essentially a customized version of Android Wear. The system has almost no background. Because there is no Home button, apart from apps such as navigation and motion recording, 99% of applications return to the desktop and they really exit. The performance and power consumption will be much lower.
The system of smart watches is much more exciting than mobile phones. The above is the main classification of smart watches. Among them, Tencent OS is directly under Tencent, and QQ and WeChat support will be better. Because of the Chinese version of Android Wear and the origins of outbound questioning, even if the ticwear platform application has only a few hundred third-party apps, most Android Wear apps can be run in AW- compatible mode.
It is worth mentioning that only Android Wear, tiwear in compatibility mode and Tencent OS of relatives can view WeChat records and replies. Others can only see WeChat in the form of notification push and cannot reply.
Connection and management
Early smartwatches running full-size Android can run mobile apps directly without the need for mobile phone management, but now almost all smart watches require mobile phones for management and application installation. Domestic inWatch, Tuman, etc. equipped with Android core deep-reform system products, have their own mobile client, which has a very small number of third-party applications (the former only 8 app when evaluating at the beginning of the year).
The Android Wear branch is similar to the Apple Watch in terms of products, connections, and operations. The phone is the protagonist, and the watch is the supporting role. If the application on the mobile phone has a watch version, the latter will be automatically synchronized to the watch.
Ticwatch client
Ask App Store screenshot
Ticwatch 2 needs a mobile phone to scan the QR code for the first time to boot up. After changing the phone, the watch must be restored to the factory to reconnect. Fortunately, the recovery speed is only 2, 3 minutes, and there is cloud backup. There are many areas for improvement in the experience of installing and managing applications:
To be installed bilaterally: the watch app has its own app store. When downloading, you may wonder why the volume is so large. After downloading the app for the mobile phone, the watch app is then synchronized to the watch.
Not necessarily installed: The ticwatch application store is the official partner of the Chinese version of Android Wear. The app inside can be used directly by the National Bank version of the Moto 360/Huawei Watch, but some apps will be misplaced on the Ticwatch, even It cannot be installed. This leads to partial applications that can be seen in the mobile app management list but not in the watch.
Uninstall implicated: uninstall the watch app must use to ask the application store or a dedicated management app, uninstall the mobile version will be unloaded together ... ...
Uninstall trouble: The mobile app is unloaded at the desktop, but the watch app will stay on the watch itself. At this time, it may not work, but you can't unload it. You need to reload it with your mobile phone and uninstall it with the app store or a dedicated management app...
In addition, it is support for Apple's mobile phone. Although it is already the best Android watch supported by Apple, the limitation of connecting to the iPhone is still much more than the Android phone: unable to send third-party apps and dials, return SMS and WeChat, no third-party app shortcut cards, no GPS track record .
interactive mode
In addition to the touch screen, Ticwatch 2 also has a crown and a touch bar on the right (the official name is "Tickle - scratch"). The first two are common settings for smart watches, and the third is something unique to Ticwatch:
Touch screen: Click, slide, long press are all the same as mobile phones, but cancel the multi-fingered control. The right edge of the left edge is a return, iPhone users may be familiar with.
Crown button: crown click to return, double-click is a screenshot, three-click is directly to the maximum brightness and maintain about 10 seconds, used to deal with suddenly run into the sun can not see the case of the dial. Press and hold to enter the power menu. The restart/shutdown/power save/reset switches are all inside. These settings are all good, but the double-click and triple-click features are hidden features that are not prompted. Normally, they should be provided in the activation or setup. This hopes to improve.
Flexing the touch bar: The plastic part on the right side of the watch body is a hidden touch area that can be swiped and clicked (the map can zoom in and zoom out). For its even the crown has been moved to the left (setting can be changed), this is a point worthy of praise in industrial design, but it is not practical. Twisting the touch bar does not return to operation. It should be used in conjunction with the touch screen, and its use is limited to the list of pages. After testing it for a week, the author shut it down to save a little power because I didn't need it and occasionally missed it.
The main problem with "scratching" is that it cannot completely replace the touch screen. In 99% of cases, touch screens must be used. If you increase the double-click to return it may be more practical, but there will be inadvertently. In order to ensure the accuracy of the operation, sliding the long list requires many fingers. These are the limitations of this program, so I do not think about the future of this program.
system structure
The system structure of the smart watch can be imagined as a cross-arranged card. Some products will have different layouts. Ticwatch is the structure of the following diagram. The clock home page is the control bar (the quick card is also inside) and the notification bar. The left is Voice search, right is the application drawer: 
Clock: The machine comes with 25 models, the third-party dial multi-entry hair, some dial also supports custom. The system supports displaying month/week/hour/second, step/weather/power, but it can't show the to-do list like Apple Watch. Even the third-party application can't find the relevant function temporarily. This is a pity and regret. I hope the official will fill it in as soon as possible. pit;
Dial and Dial Shop
Control bar: two set cards are fixed at the front, can not be modified, respectively, control the "flight / Do not disturb / own signal module", set / ringtone / brightness control / find the phone (remote phone ring) / raise his hand Screen switch. The quick card can be customized, essentially an application icon, click to enter the original application.
The system comes with music / news / weather / Alipay / health / sports a total of 6 cards. But sports cards are only displayed when they enter the sport mode, and the naming and health are difficult to distinguish, and the design logic is rather confusing.) It is worthy of praise that information such as location, store, movie, flight, and traffic route of voice search can be added to the card. ,More convenient;
The notification bar and the application drawer are as their names suggest.
As shown in the hierarchy diagram above, the system design completion is relatively high, and there is no essential difference with Android Wear, but there are still some areas for improvement:
Location waste: 10 menu items are set, but the four “for dial/reset/about/permission management†are not of much significance, wasting the position of the first menu.
Uneven distribution: Preferences put down almost all of the advanced function switches, the content is the most, can be split into several items
Extra levels: Partially set the fourth level of the menu, you have to click 3 times to go in, but only one switch after entering... Like the power trigger line of the intelligent power-saving mode, you can directly tile to the upper level to simplify the logic
Quick control bar: set the flight in the card, do not disturb, ring tones, get back the phone are very low-frequency features, remove them can save the next page
System comes with app
In addition to system-level voice search and settings, there are 14 self-apps. The more special ones are the same phone app as a dual-card mobile phone (which directly reads the phone's call history and address book) and has a very healthy function. You can find the functions of sedentary reminders and moving targets by moving right to the end. This can actually be put into the system settings.) The rest of the app functions and interactions are relatively simple and will not be described here.
System and third-party app screenshots
Application Market and Development
Ticwatch downloads and uninstalls apps from its own app store.
Compatibility: A small number of apps do not support ticwatch well, and there are problems with misplaced or even unsuccessful installation.
Quantity: Regardless of compatibility issues, the number of resources in the application store is still not a lot. With the dial, the total number is only a few hundred. Experienced players can end up within a few minutes. Of course, the number still spikes domestic rivals such as Tencent OS and other non-Android Wear cores.
Quality: The dial, Jingdong, what is worth buying and other big-name life applications are still in place (although there are few opportunities to use them), but the overall quality is uneven. The game application is just a fake fappy bird, dodge ball, etc. can only taste the fresh level.
Android Wear compatibility mode
Because the bottom layer is the same as Android Wear , you can use most Android Wear apps after manually switching and restarting to enter AW mode. However, this mode consumes a lot of power (according to the model and use state, the life of the watch and the mobile phone may weaken more than 2-30%), so the default is closed. For most users, the AW mode is a function for WeChat reply. After it is turned on, you can view the group and history, reply to expressions and voices, and send text in the form of voice to text.
Mobile WeChat screenshot
However, there are still compatibility issues, such as insufficiency of the big picture, the voice of the end of the micro-channel PC is not open (prompt has been damaged), the default open "bright screen does not push" (mobile phone screen will not be lit), from The AW mode rollback will cause partial app flash back. Experienced early adopters, I still gave up the AW mode and WeChat reply function: First, the utility of this feature is not high, the phone is too painful to see the message, but the message is really useful, but the power consumption is too touching, if the phone itself This collapse is simply worse.
stability
During the test period of two weeks, the machine was fluent for most of the time. There were “difficult†apps in the “bigger†app, such as the startup and map/wechat, but no crashes occurred. After the AW mode is switched, the power detection app flashes back and can only be reinstalled.
Overall, the system itself is not a problem, but the gap is still in the third-party app. Some dials, watch management apps and games may crash the watch's battery life (more than 10% of the speed per hour standby power failure), have to toss about to catch the "murderer", after unloading can be resurrected, but unfriendly to ordinary users, Toss.
Enhancement points and selling points
The left is the movement and the map, and the right is the corresponding dim light pattern
Low light is always on: After the screen is locked, it will display time with low brightness and black and white. Because it is an OLED, it is more power-saving (experience will be much better, and endurance loss is acceptable, normally open is recommended). In the map and the sports app, the original information is displayed in black and white after the information screen, and the setting is very practical.
Cloud push: As long as the mobile phone and watch are connected to each other, the phone can also receive WeChat, SMS, and notifications. What is more regrettable is that the incoming call is not a push notification. In the cloud push mode, some mobile phones such as Samsung cannot receive the push when they call, and it is even more impossible to answer the call remotely. It is recommended that the mobile phone number be directly transferred to the watch number. In addition, under the AW model, WeChat messages cannot be pushed by the cloud.
Comes with a sim card: You can call and surf the internet without a mobile phone. The call is transferred to the watch, and if you forget to bring your phone, you can also receive an emergency call. You can use voice and search without a mobile phone or wifi. Both of these are rarely encountered, but will find useful features once encountered.
From the wrist lock screen: After opening, if you take off your watch without a password, you can only watch the time. After binding Alipay and the address book, this function is very necessary to open and the design is very careful.
Quick payment: watch Alipay QR code can be used offline, installed force to pull groups.
Privacy Push: After the push, only the details will be displayed when you raise your hand to prevent the push from being accidentally seen by others (but not personally, and it will cause the message push details to slow down, so it is closed).
Part of the system summary
Ticwear is a highly customized version of Android Wear. Although there is still a gap between the completion level and the Apple Watch, systems (swift cards, switches, etc.), voice assistants, and self-contained applications can all finish Android Wear and Tencent OS equivalent systems.
Its short board is still supported by a third-party app, much better than other domestic rivals, but it has a clear distance from the native Android Wear, and application management is more troublesome. The default mode cannot reply with WeChat. The AW mode is too power-consuming.
Voice search is the business of asking questions. Some users may have passed their mobile apps, so Ticwatch puts voice search at the highest level and uses it as a selling point. You can wake the voice assistant by swiping to the right on the surface of the clock, flicking your wrists twice, or using “Hello Askâ€.
In addition to search engines, voice search also requires voice to transfer text and split keywords before searching. Ticwatch 2 is essentially an extended search scenario for out-of-the-way interrogation and has been specifically optimized for specialized equipment. Voice search includes the following 4 measurement points:
Speed: The actual recognition speed is very fast, the voice just fell 0.5 seconds to complete the recognition, the author has experienced the fastest voice recognition. However, the buffering time is very short and you have to think ahead about what you want to ask. If you do not finish it, the machine will search for it.
Accuracy: Medium to upper level, long sentences can be corrected by themselves, 5 or 6 words, as long as Mandarin is not too exaggerated to recognize. What is more impressed is that it has a high recognition rate for the location, and more specific location names such as Chegongmiao and Guangzhou Gangding can be quickly identified.
Sensitivity and Noise Filtering Effect: This is related to the problem of whether or not noisy environments such as outdoor and roadside can be used normally. The actual effect is unexpectedly good. Indoor normal dialogue volume, the distance of nearly 1 meter can also wake up and identify. Noisy environment from the watch more than 20 cm, the normal volume can also be correctly identified, quite the feeling of using Moto X that year.
Many rounds of dialogue: This is even Google efforts, Ticwatch and the voice assistant can just contact the upper and lower sentences to add semantics, continuous dialogue search can use "just, said above, then how" and more complex, closer to the spoken language search word. However, it only adds to the degree of goodwill of users, and it cannot be said that much change has taken place. After all, the success rate of contact is still not high. After a few failures, it will still return to traditional keyword phrases.
If you insist on picking a sting, unfortunately, there is no recognition in Cantonese and English, and you can't just recognize the voice of the owner. The awakening phrase of “Hello Ask†cannot be replaced on its own.
The main things that Ticwatch and 99% voice assistants can do are mainly the following. When considering using these apps and devices, you can refer to:
Search queries: news, jokes, movies, celebrities/things. Humanization is limited to the end of the line number, the number of Olympic medals, PM2.5, stock index, color ball, exchange rate conversion;
Productivity categories : schedule, reminders, countdowns, turn on the stopwatch (counting will begin immediately after recognition, this praise);
Map categories: navigation, personal location, nearby cuisines, ATMs, hotels, gas stations;
Transportation: Bus routes, subway trains, high-speed trains, and plane flights;
Application startup and system information query: heart rate, dialing, texting, number of steps
Something special is the following:
Taxi: Ticwatch can be bound with Uber, Drip account, voice assistant can directly complete the taxi mission;
Nearby beauty: access to flower fields, card-style look sister paper, but the picture resolution is very slag, details and larger plans to be sent to the phone to see;
Language translation : translate words into other languages, multiple target voices are optional;
Eggs : Can understand "big care" is to find a massage, find the toilet can also give the location of the nearby McDonald's and KFC
Almost all search results can be long-pressed and added to the shortcut card for later viewing. I also use it as a favorite. If you think of something, search for it. Simple information will be scanned at a glance. Too long things will be added to the fast card, and then you will watch it slowly.
In actual use, although the experience is so much better than the mobile phone search, this thought that such a convenient search would greatly increase its search frequency, but in fact it will only use the watch search on the road. When sitting in your home or office, your computer is still faster. I use the highest frequency and all-weather use is the schedule and alarm clock reminder, can be completed with the mouth, the speed is too much faster than the phone.
To summarize briefly, this is the highest wearable device available for voice search, not one.
Raise the screenThis is the power-saving setting inherited from the smartband era. The smaller the wrist-lifting speed, the slower the speed, and the faster the wake-up speed, the more natural it is to use. The cost is that the higher the sensitivity, the more power it consumes. Electricity and inadvertent contact problems. The actual performance of the machine is lower, with the millet bracelet, Samsung Gear Fit a level, and the Apple Watch, Gear Fit2 such a top machine to instantly wake up a lot of distance.
Watching when walking hands (walking and standing), the poor watch can also wake up, just to awaken the difference in speed; when it's still and flat (this is almost always the case for office watching movies, etc.) Wrist can wake up, but Ticwatch and most wristband products can only wake up when they meet the conditions. Every day, they encounter a lot of embarrassment that raises their hands but they don't shine brightly. This will seriously affect the user experience, so they would rather sacrifice about 15%. Life, I also opened the light mode
For the Ticwatch 2, it may be to save power and impose a lot of restrictions on the raising of the hand. It is characterized by the fact that only the last surface angle is available and there is a cooling time of a few tenths of seconds:
Surface angle: This is the biggest, and it affects the use of the problem. Even if you raise your hand when you walk, the action will be faster and bigger. As long as the last surface does not have a slight tendency toward yourself, it will not light up even if the surface is horizontal... Official It is entirely possible to relax the scope of this angle. After all, in many cases it will not be turned to such a large angle. It is hoped that the relevant issues will be corrected as soon as possible;
Acceleration: The demand is not high, even if it is intentionally slow-motion, as long as the final surface angle exceeds the level and faces slightly to itself, the screen will be bright, which is still good;
Action cooling time: This is also a big problem, it is the main reason why it does not light screen during exercise. When the watch is moving from a standstill and the acceleration is generated, the machine will judge whether or not the screen is bright. If the continuous acceleration does not stop, even if the tilted wrist angle meets the requirements, it will not light up. This is also the time when sitting and shaking hands continuously. The main reason why none of the screens are bright, as long as the first time the wrists do not light up the screen, it will not light up when you keep turning your wrists. This phenomenon is not obvious in Gear Fit2 and Apple Watch.
For products with similar problems, it is recommended to test the characteristics of the machine, so that you can have a targeted wrist (the machine design is flawed, only the user himself tossing). For the Ticwatch2, remember to keep the surface at a slightly angled angle when you turn your wrist. It's enough to wake up the machine if you slightly exceed the level.
Somatosensory wrist and navigation
In addition to raising his hand, Ticwatch 2 has added a cover sheet to disable the screen, a vertical hand-off screen, and a number of wrist movements:
Two wrists - exhalation voice assistant
Flip down - exhale shortcut card
Flip up - Call out notification bar
In the caller interface, two wrists - answer the phone
Under the call interface, turn the wrist twice - hang up the phone
Notification bar interface, up and down wrist - notification bar page
Fast card interface, up and down wrist - switch shortcut card
