\t\"\"<\/p>\n

The Mobvoi TicWatch series has produced some memorable Wear OS smartwatches, both in terms of value and hardware advancements, but the company seems to have thrown in the towel altogether.<\/p>\n

Mobvoi has been producing smartwatches for the better part of a decade, with the company\u2019s first US release being 2017\u2019s TicWatch 2<\/a>, which was based on its own Android-rooted platform. It didn\u2019t take long for the company to adopt Android Wear<\/a> and, later, go all-in on Wear OS. 2018\u2019s TicWatch Pro was where the company really made a name for itself with a special dual-layer display<\/a> that pushed the smartwatch to have multi-day battery life, and stuck around as a continually offered feature on later models. <\/p>\n

Over the past 7 years, Mobvoi has released well over a dozen separate TicWatch devices powered by Wear OS.<\/p>\n

While the company developed a great reputation for its value and hardware, that reputation was continually soured by very slow software updates. It took around a year for Wear OS 3 to arrive on any TicWatch devices<\/a>, and more recently, the company has been silent regarding Wear OS 6, having been pretty quiet overall around Wear OS 5\u2019s release as well, much to its customers\u2019 frustration.<\/p>\n

The last TicWatch release from Mobvoi was over a year ago, with the TicWatch Atlas<\/a>. That watch was a respectable upgrade powered by Snapdragon W5+ Gen 1, but it continued <\/a>the lack of timely software updates too.<\/p>\n

Now, Mobvoi appears to have largely given up, or at least completely shifted its focus away from Wear OS watches.<\/p>\n

All TicWatch models have vanished from Amazon search and listings are \u201ccurrently unavailable.\u201d Far more telling is that Mobvoi has stripped most presence of TicWatch from its website. The \u201cProducts\u201d navigation menu only shows treadmills and the TicNote AI recorder. The TicWatch Atlas and TicWatch Pro 5 Enduro are both seen on a featured slider on the homepage, but both listings are \u201cnot available at the moment,\u201d leaving no way to purchase the smartwatches.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve reached out to Mobvoi for more information, but given the absolute silence about new TicWatch products over the past 12 months, the removal of the website listings, and the removal of Amazon listings, it certainly seems like Mobvoi\u2019s time in Wear OS has come to an end.<\/p>\n

In response, Mobvoi said to 9to5Google that \u201cwe don\u2019t have new information to announce about the TicWatch lineup\u201d but that \u201cexisting devices will continue to receive essential support.\u201d The door certainly isn\u2019t closed, but again, the writing is on the wall. <\/p>\n

This leaves Wear OS losing another name that propped up the platform for years prior to the 2021 reboot that came with the Pixel Watch and Galaxy Watch 4. Fossil was the other name that stood alongside Mobvoi, but the company shuttered its smartwatch efforts entirely in 2024.<\/a> Tag Heuer also ditched Wear OS earlier this year for its own OS for the sake of iOS compatibility<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Remaining Wear OS brands include Google Pixel, Samsung, OnePlus, as well as Xiaomi and Oppo in some international regions.<\/p>\n
