DECRIPTION:
What a way to start the new year! Finally we have an Android smartwatch, not only bumped up to Android 6, but sporting 4G cellular compatibility (not yet globally though). We showed this watch to you recently in the Mr. Ticks Predicts segment for 2018, and you may have seen a little one minute review (for those who think I run a bit too long), as a prelude to today’s program. This is the full version, so grab a glass of water, settle in, and get ready to watch away!

Sorry
Nice Microwear h5 Smart which
Sir please do review of DM2018 smartwatch
Nice watch
As said in this video, I also prefer the standard micro USB interface cable as opposed to the 4 dot connectors. You can use the watch while it is charging without the cable falling off and you don't have to buy multiple cables as backups .. These benefits out way any lack of waterproofing.
Does it support jio sim?
Hi….
Does the watch have
RAIS TO WAKE
please…..?
How do I make this work with Verizon?
Is it waterproof?
Hi, plan to get a lemfo lem7, but battery still worry me, I want a watch thats mtk6737 based but with 2gb of ram, I wonder why they are all 1gb ram with h5, m9 and lem7… kinda dissapointed…..
SmartWatch Ticks I own this one. Value for money. Besides the apps you recommend in your videos, which are pretty cool (settings search etc.), I like very much:
1. "join" by joaoapps. with this one, you mirror notifications between 2 android devices using 4g (or 3g). So I have my phone's notifications (another sim card is mounted on that one) in h5 even if I 've left it home.
2."Perfect keyboard". 9 big button t9 old school keyboard. Many languages supported. Best typing experience for my style of using the device.
Also I would like to report 2 problems I 've encountered. I would appreciate any feedback from the community…
1. I have paired several bluetooth headsets with this watch to listen to music etc. and eveything's ok. But when a call starts (outgoing or incoming), sound goes to the watch automatically and I cant switch it back during the call. I cant find anything in settings to fix this (i have installed search setting app too).
2. I have installed viber app but it doesnt fit to screen (buttons that i need to push to make it work are offscreen and I cant reach them). Is there anything I can do about it?
Thank you very much, keep the great job going with your videos! I think, it would be very interesting to include testing mainstream 3rd party apps. Cheers!
The camera designed backward because in China we all pay food with QRcode so it makes us easier to scan directly from wrist. Is is not design to do selfie or videocall. I would suggest Thor S for good selfie or videocalling camera. Good review though Mr Ticks. I enjoyed your reviews.
Is there a way to replace / remove the bands on this one? thanks
The worst smartwatch in the world of smartwatchs TOTAL CRAP … it started fallin apart the 2nd day i had it…
i had the zgpax smartwatch after two years the usb connector on the watch failed but all in all two years was quite a good run i got it for 35 bucks
best stand alone watch atm?
how does this compare to the No1 D6, aybody knows (because I have one)?
does the watch support vibrate notification and can I get a day battery usage out of it?
h5 deep review !!! – …………………………………………………………………………………………..

Very scarce info everywhere, but quite a few people already use this $80 super-powerful watch including me (which is basically a micro-smartphone).
Many video reviews already.
I personally think that such powerful watch (much more powerful than my cheap 2016 tablet on previous Mediatek chip with less RAM) is a such small smartphone with illusion like it’s watch made by very modified version of Circle launcher with edited Android 6. I don’t see any limitations on this watch to run full stock Android OS here from the M6737M series smartphones, if ported. Even now all full-featured apps from Google store made for smartphones are perfectly runs here, including very big navigation apps and even the full “battery saver” function present from smartphones (first one which I see on Android watch ever). The only limitation which I noticed is very small display (specific apps cannot fit) and badly edited Android OS (like completely deleted status bar from OS, any 3rd-party status bar apps are installing fine but crashing on settings). Most 3rd-party launchers from Google store and open sources are installing here (only with few exceptions) – the most stable one I’ve found is open source “Essential Launcher” ver. 1.3.
My feeling from “lift wrist turn on” function with “swipe pages” makes almost iPhone X experience here, no any buttons needed, very stable power on only by view and swiping windows (including closing them by swiping to the right) makes very good feedback to the user.
Everything spoiled only by edited OS – awful work with fonts, too many illogical Menu lists, deleted functions like not present “Storage” in OS settings(only shortcut to file explorer) – the USB storage media not adding because of edits on OS level, considering normal micro-USB & even if you turn on “usb media” in developer settings.
Very few watch-faces with no way to install any others, it’s obviously fake feature to make you feel and use them as watch.
So, what I think many would be glad to see here – the root is the most important goal for now(developer menu allows bootloader unlock-not sure if it’s true because USB media settings there not works), maybe putting the normal Android is the next goal.
The root is very needed to firewall for very shady apps here, it’s very powerful device so it have full smartphone spyware, like notorious MTK Logger & Thermal Manager, which can work at sleep mode (it is almost suspicious that they broke USB media function so user can’t bypass network connection for installs). Root needed to work with display resolution and etc.
Edit: the processor by Aida app recognized as MT6737M but on Aliexpress you can find watch easily by search term processor "MTK6737M" (only like 7 sellers total).
And another one f. chinese j u n k !!! No Wi – Fi ?!!!
At 10:15 it's not Android 6, it's FunOS ?
I was wondering if it has bigger battery, it should be bigger since it has 4g, which means it will be more power hungry. I even won't charge my watch so often as it is a watch.
Also, when you show the description on the unfolder, you see a fake full screen
Hello,
Nice smartwatch but still the same problem, an appearance of a super big screen and once turned on, it is the small screen 1.54 inches that appears.
Every time the same deception ….
While people are looking for more battery life , here it is micro-wear add 4g to a smart-watch , i mean why ? why you need 4g in a freaking smart watch ? the phone already have it and its fine with it ……. if any smart watch company is watching this …… pls consider optimizing the battery more . anyway good first look/ review mr.tick. have a nice day .
Thank you for your answer. I did not understand when you said I will appear upsidedown when I point the camera towards my face.What should I do to appear normal in the camera while making a video call, I mean not appear upside down.
Thank you!
Emmanuel
Hi Friend!
Maybe you can help me and solve my problem. I bought this smartphone after seeing this video that you posted but I was a little disappointed after discovering that without using anything but just the watch, no internet but only my sim card in the device the battery lasts maximum 8 hours and when I made a video call on Whatsapp I see the image of the other person perfectly normal but my image to the other persons and to me is always upsidedown. Is it possible to solve these problems?
Thank you!

This watch works in usa right?
Here in Norway i get Download speed 33mbps with 4g ?
I want to see a round one, with gps and large screen. Come on China you can do it.
Hi mr. Ticks! Did you know that both H5 and
H2 have a protective lens cover? It is put on so well that it is practically
invisible. I took me 1 month to realize this for my H2, pictures always looked washed
out compared to I4Air. After removing the plastic lens cover on H2 and H5 there
is quite a difference in the quality of the shot.
what is the smallest length of the wrist band? can a child or female wear it?
Indian price plz
I believe you and Chigz Tech Rev are waiting for (as we all are) for the Finow Q1 Pro 4G Android 6.0 with 750 mAh battery but have you heard of and going to get an M9 4G Android 6.0 smartwatch with supposedly 320 x 240 screen res., and 850 mAh battery and takes micro sd card. Looks like Microwear H5 but softwear like Finow Q1 Pro with blood pressure.

Hi
Lik your video.
I have ordered H5 and i4 air. Do you think I'm going to be happy with these watches? Looking forward to testing 4g download here in Norway with H5 watch.
Mr. Tick- does the watch have hot spot capabilities…?
Nice review. I enjoy your channel. Just quickly, for the ping read out your "time" it's in millisecond. Again, great work.

Hi Mr. ticks I was on gear best website and I was reading the feedback on this watch and it said that it was impossible to install play store have you heard anything about that

Just received the H5, located in Chicago. AT&T tells me I should have 4G available, I'll post within the next few days. Question, though, is the watchband replaceable? Thanks!

Hi Mr.Ticks,just found out that Finow has made a new Finow Q1 pro ,Android 6.0 smartwatch, removable bands ,waterproof, larger battery than H5, I just ordered it on Banggood,hope you have a chance to review it soon.
