Mobvoi, the brand known for its TicWatch line of smartwatches and TicPods line of earbuds, is running a spring sale that has products discounted by up to 40%. The discount cuts across its smartwatches, earphones, and treadmill, and across various regions. However, we are focusing on the US store, so make sure you check the store for your region to get the discounted prices.

If you are on a budget, the TicWatch GTX that launched last year as one of its first wearables not to run WearOS can now be purchased for $44.99. The launch price was $65, so this is a good deal. The smartwatch has a round dial, support for 14 workout modes, 24-hour heart rate monitoring, and a battery life that goes up to 10 days.

For those who want a WearOS smartwatch, the TicWatch S2 (Glacier/White) is available for $119.98. The Snapdragon Wear 2100-powered watch was announced in early 2019 for $179. If you want a more recent smartwatch, the TicWatch Pro 4G is down to $224.25 from $299 but that deal expires in about 17 hours as at the time of writing.

For audiophiles, the TicKasa ANC over-the-ear headphones that launched last year for $130 can be picked up for $77.99. The headphones have ANC as the name says, a 30-hour battery life (20 hours with ANC on), and can also be used in wired mode.

If you want something smaller, Mobvoi has discounted its TWS earbuds the TicPods 2 and TicPods 2 Pro. The earbuds sell for $64.99 (the original price is $99.99) and $90.99 (the original price is $139.99) respectively. The TicPods ANC earbuds can be purchased for $53.99 (the original price is $89.99).

Trying to set up your own gym, then the Mobvoi Home Treadmill is on sale for $404.99. This is not a significant discount as the original price is $449.99.

You can access all of these deals on Mobvoi’s US page. Just remember that some expire soon but the sale is expected to run until April 30.

Mobvoi announced two new smartwatches at CES 2019, however, it didn’t reveal the price for the Wear OS-powered watches. Today it announced the Ticwatch E2 and Ticwatch S2 will sell for $159 and $179 respectively and both can be purchased right away.

While both watches share the same specs, Mobvoi is selling the sports-like Ticwatch S2 for $20 more. That extra amount is for the watch’s MIL-810G compliance which means it can survive extreme temperatures, shock, water, and dust, unlike the E2 which is only waterproof up to 5ATM.

Other than the difference highlighted above, both watches have a 1.39-inch AMOLED screen with a 400 x 400 resolution, a Snapdragon Wear 2100 processor, and a 415mAh battery that is said to last up to 2-days on a charge. They both have built-in GPS, Bluetooth 4.1, a 24-hour heart-rate monitor, and run Google’s Wear OS.

Mobvoi has also announced a new feature called TicMotion 1.0 which is a suite of AI algorithms that proactively detect any physical activity you are involved in and record them without you doing anything. So there is no need to set either of the watches to swimming mode or running mode before it begins tracking. TicMotion will also include sleep tracking but it will arrive as a future OTA update.

The Ticwatch E2 is available in Shadow while the Ticwatch S2 is available in Midnight. The S2 will have a Glacier (white) model that will be released in the future. Both watches can be purchased on Amazon now. You can also purchase them on Mobvoi’s official website.

About four months ago, Mobvoi put up a teaser on their website for the Ticwatch E2 smartwatch. We thought it would launch soon afterward but it didn’t, instead, we got the Ticwatch C2. Now, the smartwatch maker has announced the Ticwatch E2 at CES 2019 and it brings along another watch, the Ticwatch S2.

The Ticwatch E2 and Ticwatch S2 were both unveiled at CES 2019 and are much more similar than they are different. They have the same 1.39-inch AMOLED display with a 400 x 400 resolution. They are also powered by the Snapdragon Wear 2100.

Both watches also have the same 415mAh battery and come with GPS and a heart rate sensor. So battery life, put at 1 to 2 days by Mobvoi, should be the same for both watches.

So where do they differ? In their design. The Ticwatch E2 has a simple design though not like the Ticwatch C2. It has a polycarbonate body (the S2 does too) and a circular button on the right side. The Ticwatch S2, on the other hand, has a sporty look. There are minute markings on the dial and the button is rectangular.

Although they both have different straps that further differentiate them, you can actually swap them for each other as they both use 22mm bands. Mobvoi says the S2 can also withstand extreme conditions and environments.

The two smartwatches are water resistant (5 ATM) and can track swimming activities. If you don’t swim, they can also track a bunch of other activities. They run WearOS, so you get the usual apps, Google Assistant and downloadable watch faces.

Mobvoi hasn’t disclosed the pricing for the Ticwatch E2 and the Ticwatch S2 but seeing as they are technically not different, they should be priced the same. Both watches are expected cost under $200 and are set to be available soon.
