    This is just the beginning.
    Mr. Ticks, if you want to REALLY customize your watch, read this: forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/other-smartwatches/how-to-make-watch-amazfit-t3571751
    Latest Chinese FW (1.2.11) fully translated with a lot of goodies: forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/other-smartwatches/rom-pacefied-amazfit-huami-amazfit-t3539431
    The Chinese and the English FW are nearing - they added mi/km and 12/24 support in the latest Chinese FW, and most of the text are bilingual now. So in the future there'll be only one FW IMO for both the Chinese (A1602) and the USA (A1612) versions with the same functionality, except the sport export - I think that'll be limited to Strava for A1612 and MiFit / MiDong for A1602.

      You are blowing my mind StormChild! It's these moments of glee that make all this reviewing, editing and posting worthwhile. THANK YOU! I didn't know about this at all. I've pasted your comment directly in the Show Notes and am pinning it here so it will be the first one everyone sees. Hey everybody! Please share if you try any of this by adding to this comment string. I'm sure we are all curious!

    Hey, do you get live phone call and notification on the watch. Like if someone is calling does it display who it is and the options to pick or Atleast cancel the call. And also for whatsapp, who sent and what?

  • @JohnHansknecht
    @JohnHansknecht 7 років тому

    Do you think Xiaomi would be responsive to customer requests? For instance, suppose I am a skydiver and I want it to have a screen that is like an analog dial type altimeter with a digital ground speed numeric on the inside? That would be awesome!

    • @SWT
      @SWT  7 років тому

      They are completely different watches for different purposes. First figure out what you want to do with your watch. That will guide your decision.

  • @mannymorales1706
    @mannymorales1706 7 років тому

    i had another question.. how long did it take for u to get the lemfo y3 shipped to u from the day u purchased?

    • @SWT
      @SWT  7 років тому +1

      I get my watches through special DHL Express delivery directly from the manufacturer in the case of LEMFO. You might want to ask this question under the Y3 review video for others to answer you who ordered through normal channels.

    • @mannymorales1706
      @mannymorales1706 7 років тому

      SmartWatch Ticks ok cause on gearbest it also offers dhl express for $8.50 and thats y i ask how many days it took

    • @SWT
      @SWT  7 років тому

      From the moment I get the DHL Text Push to my phone it's right around 5 days, 7 if it spans weekends, to my door. Remember shipping time is SHIPPING TIME, not prep time. You can get caught in 2 weeks or longer prep time, especially with flash sales where nothing goes out until the whole lot is sold (so I'm told) before it's given to the shipper. What you want to check is end-to-end, order to delivery time.

    Dear Mr.Tics, I'm using the latest Amazfit watch (1.1.8). On my Amazfit watch app doesn't have menu "load image". Any special setting required? Please advice.

    • @SWT
      @SWT  7 років тому +1

      Check ROM version of your watch is 1.3.1m or newer. You should see the Load Image at the bottom of the Watch Faces page in the app.

    Hi Mr Ticks...just subscribed to your channel. Great reviews and videos. I am interested in the Xiaomi Amazfit Pace and just wanted to confirm if its a standalone or a dual mode/tether watch?...Sorry you may have already provided this info...but I sure missed it. Please advise. Regards

    • @SWT
      @SWT  7 років тому

      Good you're checking. It's a sports/fitness watch with no speaker, hence, no phone calls. Same for the SMA-TIME watch, the other one with the great transflective screen. Thanks for subscribing! Sounds like you've already watch the Beginner's Guide video 'cause you already knew the watch differences!

    • @laurencestewart2579
      @laurencestewart2579 7 років тому

      Thanks for the info Smartwatch Ticks. Any 3G dual mode/tether watches out there that you can recommend since 2G is on its way out? I see the Kingwear KW18 is a 2G watch...so thats a no no.

    • @SWT
      @SWT  7 років тому

      Sorry, I haven't kept track on which are 2G and which are 3G. Since it's of interest to you right now, I'd appreciate you sharing which ones you find that are 3G so I can start developing a list. This is yet another one of those important facts I haven't tracked on each of these watches. Same goes for Android watches and their 2G vs 3G support. We really need a list of which ones still work!

  • @ysys999
    @ysys999 7 років тому

    Hello smartwatch ticks. I have a question regarding the watch faces. Is it possible to use the watchfaces build for android smartwatch like the no.1 d5 and others built by the members of the round android smartwatch forum. Thanks

    • @SWT
      @SWT  7 років тому

      Unfortunately you can only use the watch faces you find in the Amazfit app for the PACE. Some of them do allow for minor adjustments, like adding date, but not much more. Android Wear and VXP faces won't work either. I think it's partly because of the capabilities of the transflective screen.

    • @ysys999
      @ysys999 7 років тому

      SmartWatch Ticks Hello, traveling along the web i found this site sawfb.fabiobarbon.click/edit letting you design watchfaces for the amazfit. Installing them seems easy like installing watchfaces to android watches like no.1 finow and others. Just letting you know. Did you try that and it doesnt work on the english version? Thanks

  • @LuisLucio7
    @LuisLucio7 7 років тому

    So are you ever gonna do a full review of this watch and your thoughts or nah?

    • @SWT
      @SWT  7 років тому

      I think the full review is going to come in fits and starts. It's a work in progress, constantly changing. I wish I had a better idea how the firmware update affected the GPS both in accuracy and power consumption, but I don't have a clue on how to test that, and even less time to give it attention right now. We'll see how things go. The good news is I'm using this one quite often so it isn't in the storage bin. Better chance I may do some deeper reviews as I discover more worth sharing.

    • @LuisLucio7
      @LuisLucio7 7 років тому

  • @johnmanley4528
    @johnmanley4528 7 років тому

    Hi. Do they have any backgrounds that are all white for the watch faces? All of the dark backgrounds are hard to see. Also, do they have an app for looking at your steps or is it still only accessible by looking at the watch? Thanks.

    • @SWT
      @SWT  7 років тому

      Only the faces you see in the app are currently available, but look at the first post in this video. I pinned a comment from StormChild with links to a way you can make your own watch face for the Amazfit. Then you can design it the way you want it. Please let me know if you have any success, and if you want, I'll show your design in a future video. As far as the steps showing, from the watch face, swipe once to the left and you'll see your steps in big numbers and how you are doing toward your daily goal.

    • @johnmanley4528
      @johnmanley4528 7 років тому

      I don't own the watch currently and don't have the app. I did return it. One of the reasons why I returned it was that I felt the background was too dark and it was difficult to read.

    • @SWT
      @SWT  7 років тому

      It does take getting used to, and compared to others it is dark. But the always on display makes up for that for me in most situations. I wouldn't want this as an Android watch for using lots of apps, but for fitness, time, heart rate, etc., it's perfect.

    • @johnmanley4528
      @johnmanley4528 7 років тому

      The lack of an app to sync sleep and steps to was a deal breaker for me.

  • @neelmegh1
    @neelmegh1 7 років тому

    Hi sir
    is there any option to increase the brightness in the watch becoz I see that icons are not so bright like other watches

    • @SWT
      @SWT  7 років тому

      This uses a completely different kind of screen that relies on reflected light. There is no brightness control, only a soft backlight for when you are in a dark room. This screen is a color version of those digital watch displays you see on the watches at Kmart. The only way I can show you the screen is to try and shine a flashlight on it and get the reflection just right for the camera. Much more work than a traditional backlit smartwatch. But the battery life is excellent because of this unique screen.

  • @mgabrielmcdowell5324
    @mgabrielmcdowell5324 7 років тому

    does the gps function display your location on a map or grid?

    • @SWT
      @SWT  7 років тому

      No, it's a shame, but it does not. It doesn't export your track to the app for later use either.

    • @JoseFernandoDominguez
      @JoseFernandoDominguez 7 років тому

      Yes, please test as I have the Chinese varient, and I like to buy the US version only if it syncs to mi fit app.

    • @SWT
      @SWT  7 років тому

      Well this is very strange. When I launch the Mi Fit app on the phone and I attempt to pair the English watch with it, the app automatically launches the Amazfit app and I'm paired in that app. When I go back ti Mi Fit, it is not paired. Every time I try it, the Amazfit app is launched instead. I guess the answer is no, it doesn't work, as I can't get access to anything in the Mi Fit app since the app doesn't actually pair with the watch. You may want to ask this question directly to the Amazfit folks though. The way these phone apps are integrated is very confusing to me.

    • @SWT
      @SWT  7 років тому

      Yea, I'm surprised there aren't more case options out there, given how impressive this device looks. Broader band choices would be welcomed as well, especially something to make this think look dressy. After all, it's supposed to be worn all the time, and it's in the business executive price range, but you can't wear it to a formal dinner with the current band selection.

    • @SWT
      @SWT  6 років тому +1

      Anybody able to help on this one? I've always done it by computer, so I don't know. I would suggest installing something like Airdroid on your phone and watch, but you would need to be using an Android watch to install the app. Can't do it on the PACE. Other options like using Dropbox or Google Drive would work for moving files over from your phone to your watch, but again, you would need to install those cloud drive apps on your watch. So I'm as stuck on ideas as you are. Sorry.

      You "design" your own faces with the options that they give you for a few select faces they provide. You can change the background picture and what shows on the display, as well as modify the hands, but you can't upload custom faces.

      @SWT  7 років тому +1

      I'm going back and forth on doing that myself. I want to stick with the Chinese updates so we can see what will eventually come to the English Pace version, yet it would be fun to try out the English update if it won't brick the watch (it's a 3rd party solution - not offered by Xaiomi). The process looks a bit technical, so I'll probably wait until I have some time to study it. In the meantime, if anyone with a Chinese version of the Amazfit wants to try it, please share your results! If you want to shoot a little video clip in 720p resolution of English on your Chinese only watch, I'll be glad to upload it here for everyone to see. Just let me know!

      Interesting, Craig. My two PACE watches (Chinese and English versions) are doing just fine and they were from the first batch on the market. That said, Xiaomi has created a new version, the Stratos (or Amaxfit Smartwatch 2), which is reviewed here: ua-cam.com/video/66MXmaoZCmk/v-deo.html
