Friend has the TicWatch 2. And the only issue is that it's running it's own modified Android OS which has odd crashes after side loading apps (original app loader is pretty limited). Guess w official Android Wear OS should overcome this issue.
The voice recognition is very impressive.
Worth backing the TicWatch S. Just hope they retain the existing voice recognition API instead of Android Wear's.
Personally the Apple Watch series 2 is still the best fitness tracker especially it's swimming capabilities and more compact design. And since the TicWatch S is scheduled for Nov launch, there prob is gonna be a price drop for the Apple Watch during that period (Black Fri). Thus it's something to consider.
