First of all, thanks! I ran into some of your videos while searching for reviews of smartwatches on sale for Black Friday. They really helped a lot! I have to say, you act and sound both very entertaining and professional, making videos detailed but also interesting (and funny) to watch, even for a neophyte (not to say completely inexperienced) like me. Definitely earned yourself another subscriber! My G6 has just been shipped, now I just have to wait! Thanks again, and keep up the good work!
Compared what is now seen around,these NO.1 (G5 and G6) seem to be two really interesting models, particularly in price-performance ratio. Prices of this manufacturer are in fact absolutely competitive. Hoping to try soon my metal and tpu G6's. ( Are five days that are stopped at Hong Kong airport...). Mr. Ticks...what about ? Perfect review goes without saying. DGA
Customs may be examining. I've had that happen to some of my watches. They will either send it on to you or back to the seller. After 4-6 weeks the seller should send you a new one or give you a refund, especially if you have tracking information.
the best channel on youtube for revieing most of the cheap smartwatch.. i got a question.. the g6 can it thatering with ios for receiving call? tq keep up your good work
I'm pretty sure it can. Look for the FundoWear app for iPhone, download it and check it out (free to download). Read up on it over on Apple review sites, and you'll find out. If you get one and it does tether for you, please let me (and all of us) know, OK? Thanks!
SmartWatch Ticks I'm planning to buy it later but I've just search for the fund do wear app for iOS but it stated that I need to purchase and it is not free for iOS user.. But it's ok because I might not using the fun do wear app because I just want to message and received call from the watch..as long as it can connect with the iPhone it will be fine for me.. Tq for your reply ✌️👍
hello Mr. Ticks.... one more question and this one is a bit of a doozy. Do you happen to know in the vast number of watches you reviewed, which ones have access to Google play?
Are these the only pure tethering watches? I want a step up from these but once you get to the $100 price bracket the watches are all sim-based full function android watches. Does anyone make a nicer tethering watch?
Yes, there are quite a few. Check the Playlists I've created here on the channel. One of them is called "More Tethering Watches" and it includes the videos of all the tethering smartwatches I have reviewed.
Hello and Thanks again for other amazing review! This two smartwachtes are fantastics, but i got a question, do you know if exist an app that shows current speed and mileage, in the watch screen while you are running? Like a GPS watch, you know. Thank!!
i wonder are these watches have the screen protector? 'cause for the first time after bought it i don't want the screen to get scratch. but sadly i got the watch scratch just in 2 weeks after bought it. thanks God the screen still had the factory protector. do you know the size G6 screen? can i use the screen protector from other product?
Sometimes they ship with a protector already on. Sometimes there's one or two tossed in the box. Often times there isn't any. I don't know of a place where you can buy one either. I guess you could cut a phone screen protector to fit on your watch if you want.
Absolutely! The metal band uses the compression pin just like a regular analog watch, 22mm I think, and you can pop it out and replace it at will. Great news for the G6! You can't do this on the G5, by the way.
You don't buy the bands separately, they come with the watch. One of them lets you remove and change bands, the other has fixed bands and you can't change them.
I am absolutely amazed at how sturdy and expensive it feels. It's the real deal. Solid, sturdy, and beautiful. It matches the stainless steel case of the watch perfectly. I'm amazed at this quality for anything under $50 in a regular watch, let alone a smartwatch.
hey there, I have a question about the finow q1 square watch. is the casing of that watch metal or plastic(especially on the black version)? and does it have 1gb ram? thank you I really enjoy watching ur videos
SmartWatch Ticks ohh thank you im deciding on what im going to buy between q1 and q3 but I need a watch with a metal frame so it has a better durability plus they are the same price now 😁 umm wat do you recommend between those two ?? (sry if im bothering you 😩 )
Hi, can I install extra watchfaces on the G6...there don't seem to be many listed specifically for this model. There are loads for the D5/+ and a ton of other models, but which watchfaces will work specifically on the G6, what do I need to look for to make sure a watchface is compatible with the G6...I have watched loads of videos, but haven't been able to get a clear answer to my confusion on this point. Thanks

Thanks...for the conveniene of anyone else with the same confusion: 1. Install Fundo Wear or Mediatek Smartdevice on your phone. 2. Download any watch face / extract it. 3. There will be 3 files: .xml, .png and .vxp. Copy these, and paste into your smartphone sdcard inside folder "appmanager" . 4. Open the mediatek or fundo app, connect to your watch. Then go to "My Application", press "Install Now" button on the watch face. 5. Done.
Wow, thanks Carlo! Really appreciate the effort here. I've pasted your message in the show notes under several of my videos to help others, including this one.
I need help I really want to buy the G6 watch.. but I don't know if it fits my specifications. I am currently using a smartband (Veryfit ID107 HR) and I like it that it automatically monitors my steps and my heartrate every 5 or 10 mins interval or so.. and tracks my sleep. My question.. does this watch capable of doing all these? if not, what are your suggestions with the same price range. Thank you so much. PS: I bought the G8 for my husband.. and he liked it. thanks for your unboxing and review video :)
Wow, I'm not sure if it can do what you want to that level of detail. You might try asking No.1 company directly here: en.001phone.cn/contact-8.html?wpam_id=16 or look here: plus.google.com/u/0/communities/108993240225376107397
Hello. Is there a posibility to campare the Galaxy S3 and the KW88 please. I know that they have diferent OS but i wish to hear your opinion to if it's possible. Thank you.
These watches don't support the Android OS. They use a smaller proprietary OS and have very limited memory. You won't see any bump up to Android in the G6.
I don't think these watches have apps installed to display text files. They do basic tethering functions to your phone. I could be wrong on this as I've never wandered outside the stock apps shown in the reviews.
The G5 and G6 are simple tethering watches. They don't have memory card slots. You would need to look at the Android watches, and even then only a few accept memory cards. Most people with Android watches use Dropbox or similar to move files to and from the watch, or they connect to a computer with the USB charging cable to move files.
Sure. As I show in the video (and actually on the thumbnail image for this video) you can install them from the Fundo wear app. Here's some available: forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/other-smartwatches/watch-vxp-files-t3437311
SmartWatch Ticks Does this watch work with a LG G5 ? Looking at buying a cheap and cheerful fitness/smart watch and the G5 looks decent for the price, What would you advise ?
Danny Waterson Of course it does so don't worry about that..But I wouldn't suggest you buy the no.1 g5 or the g6.It hardly lasts a day so its pretty much useless..How big of a budget do you have if I may ask?
If you want to check if I've doe a video on a particular watch, just put "SMARTWATCHTICKS S9" in Google or the UA-cam search box. Here's my S9 review: ua-cam.com/video/dBDG-rh78w8/v-deo.html
After android wear and failed attempts to make a full android watches last more than half a day with terrible battery life, I think the next penny I waste on this endeavor will be the S3 FRONTIER. Cant wait to find new ways of being disappointed...
I did watch it. Adding I actually watch all of them at orion he's one of the best reviewers of there and very underrated. But I just meant that someone on the fly may like a summary at the end of the video. That's kind of customary.. We all watch review videos but if you fast forward to the end you generally get a summary at the end part.
hi love your show but...I got a problem I like the Samsung g3 smartwatch but I got a iphone7 plus is there a app so I can use the watch or is there a update soon ?? regards chris in the uk

About the heart rate monitor, well I think you can put two watches in your arm to test their accuracy..
IF they are different. one is right, one is wrong, or they are both wrong. Good test for dispersion though.
Thank you for another great video and it gave me the answers I was looking for. I have ordered a G6!
Great to hear! I'm really enjoying my G6. Very nice watch.
i am south korean. and i love this channel very much!😄
Wow, thanks! That's a nice compliment.
Are the battery is replaceable? if yes where i should buy the battery?

hello Mr. Ticks.... one more question and this one is a bit of a doozy. Do you happen to know in the vast number of watches you reviewed, which ones have access to Google play?
Sure! It's all the ones that say they are Android watches: Beginner’s Guide -

waterproof ?

Does it have water proof?
and does the watch water proof ?
I just wondering is there any application on the phone to record the data on the watch ?
Hello, is g5 compatible with the Windows Phone?
I made my decision thanks to your videos.
Other than Fondu Wear's App... is there other ways I can find/add other clock face to this watch?
No, I don't know of any other way, especially with the severely limited amount of user available memory.
Hello and Thanks again for other amazing review! This two smartwachtes are fantastics, but i got a question, do you know if exist an app that shows current speed and mileage, in the watch screen while you are running? Like a GPS watch, you know.
Thank!!
Not on these watches. You need to upgrade to an Android watch for that where you actually have GPS and can download apps.
Can the bluetooth transmitter be turned off on the watch?
yes
Hai,how can i change the strap for g5? any idea?need some help
i wonder are these watches have the screen protector? 'cause for the first time after bought it i don't want the screen to get scratch. but sadly i got the watch scratch just in 2 weeks after bought it. thanks God the screen still had the factory protector.

SmartWatch Ticks, is band on G6 smartwatch removable. pls reply
I just order a g6 and I was wondering if I could replace the metal strap to a milanese strap?
Absolutely! The metal band uses the compression pin just like a regular analog watch, 22mm I think, and you can pop it out and replace it at will. Great news for the G6! You can't do this on the G5, by the way.
SmartWatch Ticks could you please recommend a link for the band because I'm very confused which one to get.
You don't buy the bands separately, they come with the watch. One of them lets you remove and change bands, the other has fixed bands and you can't change them.
how about battery in G6> ?
Can both the watches play music, if I put some songs on the microSD card, via the speaker of the watch.
can it silent?
Does the g6 metal band feel cheap or sturdy and expensive ?
I am absolutely amazed at how sturdy and expensive it feels. It's the real deal. Solid, sturdy, and beautiful. It matches the stainless steel case of the watch perfectly. I'm amazed at this quality for anything under $50 in a regular watch, let alone a smartwatch.
can we see images in G5 SmartWatch? if yes then how?
hey there, I have a question about the finow q1 square watch. is the casing of that watch metal or plastic(especially on the black version)? and does it have 1gb ram? thank you I really enjoy watching ur videos
It sure feels like metal. Yes, it has the full 1GB RAM from the AnTuTu report.
SmartWatch Ticks ohh thank you im deciding on what im going to buy between q1 and q3 but I need a watch with a metal frame so it has a better durability plus they are the same price now 😁 umm wat do you recommend between those two ?? (sry if im bothering you 😩 )
FINOW Q3 is a much better watch for build quality. You may want to wait for the Q3plus with more RAM and Android 5.1. I will be reviewing one soon.
SmartWatch Ticks thanx looking foward to that

i need an explanation. what the difference between tpu strap (asia) & tpu strap (eu/us)
Wow, good question. Anybody have an answer for Azim?
i noticed that the difference about 8$. is that both size diff? cause i'm asian n curious to buy
I'm not sure what you mean by a 'size' difference.
sir, may i ask, are there any affordable smartwatch have always display on, like samsung gear frontier
Usually these are the sports/fitness watches and bands. Check this playlist to find a few: ua-cam.com/video/qCmo1nMjJ5k/v-deo.html
Hello, do you know if G6 monitors Step counting in the background like G5 does?
Thanks! (btw nice reviews, just subscribed :) )
No, I don't know if it does. Sorry. Anybody with a G5 able to answer this?
SmartWatch Ticks OK no problem. But it should be possible since the software is almost the same :)
Hello. Is there a posibility to campare the Galaxy S3 and the KW88 please. I know that they have diferent OS but i wish to hear your opinion to if it's possible. Thank you.
Sorry, I don't review Android Wear watches. These two would be completely different.
Does it have a rotatable bezel? plss tell fast
No, only the G3+
Out of all the No.1 watches what one would you say is the best?
I've always thought their D5 line is the best No.1 watch.
Do these work with the Samsung Galaxy S3 phone?
They should work with any Android phone that can install the tethering app.
how to order in india
Hello again.... any word on if the g6 will update to Android 4.4?
These watches don't support the Android OS. They use a smaller proprietary OS and have very limited memory. You won't see any bump up to Android in the G6.
Hello :) and Thanks you for this amazing review ,
wanna ask you if one of this support .txt files !? Or can read any written files ?
I don't think these watches have apps installed to display text files. They do basic tethering functions to your phone. I could be wrong on this as I've never wandered outside the stock apps shown in the reviews.
i'm about to buy on, so i think if they have memory card place they can read text files or i'm wrong !! :/
The G5 and G6 are simple tethering watches. They don't have memory card slots. You would need to look at the Android watches, and even then only a few accept memory cards. Most people with Android watches use Dropbox or similar to move files to and from the watch, or they connect to a computer with the USB charging cable to move files.
can you test, this watch plug in to micro usb magnetic charge
I don't know micro USB magnetic charge.
hii sir why not play music with smart watch
As always nice video.Oh and a kind of a stupid question..Can i install any costum watch faces on eiter of them?
Sure. As I show in the video (and actually on the thumbnail image for this video) you can install them from the Fundo wear app. Here's some available: forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/other-smartwatches/watch-vxp-files-t3437311
SmartWatch Ticks Wow..Well i guess i will give the g6 a try..I only wish its battery wont be a disapointment
SmartWatch Ticks Does this watch work with a LG G5 ? Looking at buying a cheap and cheerful fitness/smart watch and the G5 looks decent for the price, What would you advise ?
Danny Waterson Of course it does so don't worry about that..But I wouldn't suggest you buy the no.1 g5 or the g6.It hardly lasts a day so its pretty much useless..How big of a budget do you have if I may ask?
It should work with the G5 just fine. The G5 would be a good starter watch for you, and you won'e even have to learn a new name! Both G5!
Is the G6 waterproof?
It can probably take a little splashing, but definitely can't be dunked in water.
Hi I have bought No.1 G, I am unable to active my Nofitications and i'm using Iphone 8 IOS 11
Can you bring that to the attention of the No.1 Team here: plus.google.com/u/0/communities/108993240225376107397
Super video do u know about no.1 s9 please make a video
If you want to check if I've doe a video on a particular watch, just put "SMARTWATCHTICKS S9" in Google or the UA-cam search box.
Here's my S9 review: ua-cam.com/video/dBDG-rh78w8/v-deo.html
is the g5 waaterproof
That's a really good question for No.1 to answer you directly. Try asking here: plus.google.com/u/0/communities/108993240225376107397
Someone knows if the G6 has water protection? Thanks!
nah... for sure
After android wear and failed attempts to make a full android watches last more than half a day with terrible battery life, I think the next penny I waste on this endeavor will be the S3 FRONTIER. Cant wait to find new ways of being disappointed...
Without watching the video, which is better?
Hey everybody, care to answer Daniel on this one, without watching the video, of course?
I did watch it. Adding I actually watch all of them at orion he's one of the best reviewers of there and very underrated. But I just meant that someone on the fly may like a summary at the end of the video. That's kind of customary.. We all watch review videos but if you fast forward to the end you generally get a summary at the end part.
I bought one, just waiting for it to turn up. By the way you're guy is the best reviewer ever!
hi love your show but...I got a problem I like the Samsung g3 smartwatch but I got a iphone7 plus is there a app so I can use the watch or is there a update soon ??
regards chris in the uk

Short answer: Neither
Adorei!
Türk varsa +1
Don't buy g6,it is a very bad Smartwatch ,thank for the videi
Vittorio Cecchini perché?
Marvin Ag Perché é davvero lento é inutile,ti consiglio un domino 368 funziona da dio,ma il g6 proprio no
Vittorio Cecchini quanto costa? Posso leggere le notifiche interamente?
Marvin Ag il domino 368 costa 89 su gearbest, e se metti il coupon DM368 ti da qualche euro di sconto.Ha Android ed é come un telefono,scarichi tutte le app che vuoi e le notifiche funzionano davvero bene
Vittorio Cecchini ma è meglio del Sony smartwatch 3
