The watch, working

The boot is quick, and shows a short animation showing the KKTICK logo. The first thing it asks, as usual with almost all smartwatches, is to choose the language, and then it does something that is new: it shows a guide in where, on different screens, explains how to change the watchface, how to enter the 3D mode, and what the watch does when we slide our finger in each direction, until it finally tells that we've completed the first part of the guide. On this screen, we can tap the top button to go to the second part, or the down button to skip it. And the last thing the first startup asks to do is to scan the QR code to download the WearPro app and pair the watch.

As we saw in the unboxing , the box shows a QR code for a different app: WearJoy. Although my contact at DT No. 1 told me that this Tank T5 is compatible with both, I'm going to use WearJoy for this review because I haven't used it before.

After this initial setup, we have the watch working and showing the default watchface. We can change this watch face in two ways: by rotating the watch crown, or by holding the finger over the center of the screen and choosing the one we want. Additionally, with the lock button that appears below we can lock it so that it won't be changed if we accidentally rotate the crown. Also, and this is a first for smartwatches related to DT No. 1, we have a button to delete any of the watchfaces that installed by default, except the first one.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

And last, we have two options to use custom watchfaces with our pictures or videos, install watchfaces from the DT No. 1 Dial Market... and a little surprise that I'll also tell you about. We'll see all of this when I talk about watch faces.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

Now, before getting into the watch interface, let's see the functions of each of the buttons and how to turn the screen on and off. First, when the screen is off, either of the two buttons turns on the watch screen.

With the screen on, the main button has different functions. The first one, with a single press, opens the smartwatch menu. And if we press this button when we're inside a menu, submenu, option, or application, it allows us to go back.

The second function happens when we hold this button down for several seconds, and it turns on the flashlight.

(Click to enlarge)

And we've already seen the third function in the watchface change screen, and it's that we can rotate this button or crown to move through the different menu and app options without having to use our finger on the screen.

As for the secondary button, a simple press does the same thing as on many other smartwatches, which is to open the sports app. And its second function, holding it down for several seconds, shows us a menu where we can turn off the smartwatch, restart it, reset it to factory settings, and add a new option: "Shipping Mode." This is a power-off mode used on many battery-powered devices, such as laptops, and shuts down the device in a way that it consumes less battery power while it's not in use. This is used when devices are going to be transported on long trips such as shipping, so they'll still have battery power when they reach their destination.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

None of these buttons turns off the screen when pressed or have any function when double-pressed.

In addition to using the buttons, the screen turns on in two ways. The first is by raising the wrist, and the second is the one I like the most, which is by double-tapping the screen. We can enable or disable both of these options in the Screen Settings.

And to turn it off, we can wait until the time we set for the screen to turn off automatically has passed, or also enable the option to turn it off by covering it with the hand in the display settings.

And let's take a look at the interface now! It works the same way we know it from this manufacturer's smartwatches, by sliding the fingers in all four directions. Sliding the finger down brings up the now-familiar shortcuts screen, which I must say is quite comprehensive. There we can see the date, the battery percent and the status of the Bluetooth connection with the phone and with the TWS earbuds. As for shortcuts, we initially have them to display the WearPro app QR code, change the brightness, open the Settings, turn Power Saving mode or the Do Not Disturb mode on or off, and enable or disable the option to turn the screen on when we turn the wrist.

(Click to enlarge)

But, also, with the Edit button at the bottom we can add up to 8 more shortcuts so we can customize this screen.

(Click to enlarge)

By sliding up, as is the case with virtually all watches from its sister brand DT No. 1, we'll see the notifications area, which shows the notifications from the apps we've selected in the WearJoy app.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

And last, as we're familiar with from other smartwatches, by sliding left or right we find the apps Widgets to access them without having to open them from the menu. The first is the sports Activity area, which shows, in a round chart and also numerically, the steps we've walked, the distance we've traveled, and the calories we've burned. Sliding the finger up also shows you a summary of the current day and the last week with a graph and numerical values.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

The next one is the Heart Rate, which lets us know our heart rate, and if we slide up will show a graph summarizing the last 24 hours and the maximum and minimum values ​​of the heart rate during this period.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

Next we have the Weather app, which will show the current weather and temperature, the minimum and maximum temperatures forecasted for the day, the UV index, and the humidity percent. Here I should mention something I found negative, and it's that neither in this Widgets area nor when opening the weather app from the menu shows any weather forecast appear the next days.

(Click to enlarge)

And the next one is a favorite of many, and I always consider it necessary to have it in this app widgets area: the Music Player, which in the menu we find under the name "Offline Music." The name doesn't seem 100% accurate to me, and I'll explain why later.

(Click to enlarge)

This player shows a screen with a vinyl disc where we have several buttons. The first one is the List, which shows the list of songs we have stored on the watch, and through it we can select the one we want to play.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

And now, if we go to the icon in the bottom center, we have three options to choose from. The first one is to play the music from our phone. That's why I said that the name "Offline Music" didn't seem 100% accurate to me. However, the only thing we can do with this option is to control the music playback ON THE PHONE. This means that we won't listen to it on the smartwatch, but on the mobile phone. With the second option, we'll control and listen the music on the watch. And the last option allows us to listen the music from the smartwatch on Bluetooth headphones.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

With the two remaining buttons, we can choose between different playback modes (single playback, loop, shuffle, etc.) and modify the volume. And this is where another use of the main button or crown of the watch comes in, because rotating this button increases or decreases the volume. This option is, in my opinion, a good idea.

(Click to enlarge)

The main buttons on this screen works the same way as on other smartwatches: we can pause and play the song, and skip to the previous or next song.

(Click to enlarge)

In my opinion, the music volume is satisfactory enough and sounds very good.

If I had to find a fault with this music player, I would say the negative point is that it only allows to control the music playback from the phone and cannot play it through the smartwatch's speaker.

And last we have, as is now practically customary, the typical "+" button that allows to add more app widgets to this area. Spoiler: We can only add one more if we keep the default ones. Those we can add are the Blood Oxygen monitor, the Voice Assistant, the Sleep monitor, the Dial app to make calls, the Breathing Exercises app, or the Timer or countdown.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

By holding the finger on any of the apps in this area we can delete any of them, even the ones that appear by default, so we can customize it to have the ones we like the most.

(Click to enlarge)

As I said before, pressing the main button opens the smartwatch menu, and we can scroll through it by rotating the watch crown or sliding the finger. The first time I entered the menu, I thought it had many more apps and options than other smartwatches I've reviewed. For this menu we have two types of view, although they are both very similar, so I don't mind which one to use.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

Calls

As you might guess, this Tank T5 also allows to make calls, and I must say that I found the user experience with this option quite satisfactory.

On this smartwatch, we don't have a phone app. Instead, the call options appear separately in the menu. The first one is the Contacts. To view them, we first need to sync our frequent contacts from the WearJoy app. And this contact list is extensive, as we can add up to 2,000 phone numbers to it. After selecting all of them, we simply tap the sync button. Once synced, we'll see them on the watch, and by tapping the button, we'll call that number.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

Additionally, during the call, we have three icons available. The first one allows to change the volume (which we can also do by turning the crown on the main button). With the second one we select whether we want to hear the call audio and speak on the smartwatch or on the mobile phone, and with the third one we disable or enable the smartwatch's microphone.

(Click to enlarge)

The second option is Dial, and it's not a mystery, as it's the typical dial pad to enter the number, and with the button at the bottom left we make the call.

(Click to enlarge)

And the third option, you already know what it's going to be: the Recent calls. Here we have the calls we've made or received recently, and tapping on any of them will show the phone number, the date and time we called or the person called us, and a button to call.

(Click to enlarge)

What I do consider a novelty is the button that appears at the top of this list, which allows to sync this history whenever we want. This way, if at some point we haven't paired the watch with the phone, we can update the history to show the missed, received, and made calls during that time.

(Click to enlarge)

The audio quality of the calls is equal to that of the music player: in my opinion, PERFECT.

Sports and fitness apps

As usual, KKTICK has placed special emphasis on the fitness and health monitoring capabilities of this smartwatch. And one of the things they wanted to highlight is the more than 100 sports modes for tracking our activity. Let's take a look.


The Sports app, to be honest, seemed quite, QUITE complete to me. When we open it, we find 5 five different categories for monitoring your exercise: Outdoor Sports, Fitness, Ball Games, Water Sports, and Other. I won't mention them all, but I will say that I counted them, and it's not "more than 100", but exactly 100. Which seems more than enough to me and covers almost any sport we might want to do. In fact, among the sports or exercises we can find Frisbee, Curling, and Parkour, something I personally hadn't seen on other smartwatches.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

Let's choose Hiking, for example. When we open the option, we'll find a button to start and an icon indicating that the smartwatch is trying to acquire a GPS satellite signal. The signal isn't required to start tracking the physical activity, although the watch will recommend connecting to the satellite. This recommendation is basically so you can follow the route we're traveling.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

After starting it, the watch immediately begins recording your physical activity performance, and look how much info it shows! It's definitely much more than other watches I've reviewed from, for example, DT No. 1. We'll see all this information in a moment, when we see the summary the watch provides at the end.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

When we want to finish, we simply swipe right and see a screen that lets us choose whether we want to continue, end the exercise, or continue later. It also offers two other options, the last of which I found funny because it's "Give Up," which is used if we want to just leave the tracking we were doing and no data is saved.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

Selecting "Sport Ends" brings up a screen where we must choose an option to describe how the exercise was, and after choosing it, it shows a monitoring of our heart rate frequency recovery, which  lasts three minutes and is recommended to be done while resting.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

When we're done, the sports app saves the data and shows a summary of the workout, where we can see the distance traveled, the duration of the exercise, the steps we've taken, our average pace, the average and maximum heart rate, the recovery time, the aerobic effect, a summary of the workout intensity, another summary with the average cadence, the average stride, the cumulative ascent and descent, and the calories burned, and last shows a map with the route we've followed.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)


(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

All the workout logs are stored in the Workout Log, where we can check each one individually and see all the data.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

And to help us with our daily workouts, we have video workout courses. Yes, video courses. We have 5 different workouts that we can watch by choosing them and sliding right the "Go" button that appears (and it also tells us the duration of the exercise), although I must warn you that they will only be heard in english. And they explain how to perform the workout.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

If we want to stop before it ends, we simply slide our finger to the left, and it asks if we want to stop or resume the exercise. Selecting "Stop" asks if we want to exit saving it, or without saving it.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

And as always happens with smartwatches from this manufacturer, in the WearPro or WearJoy app we can complement the sports app with the included Exercise option. In it we can choose Outdoor or Indoor Running, Walking, Cycling, or Climbing, which are the exercise options we have usually seen in WearPro. By tapping the Go button, after the three-second countdown that appears, the smartwatch will get the physical activity data, while the phone will use its own GPS to obtain the location data. The watch's activity during this exercise is silent. That is, we won't see anything on the watch screen, unlike when using the smartwatch's sports app.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

When we want to finish, we just have to tap the Pause button, and we can choose whether to continue, or by holding our finger on the End button it will ask us if we want to end the exercise and save the data.

After saving them, it will show us a summary with the date and time we started, the distance we traveled, the time we spent performing this physical activity, the calories burned, the pace of our exercise, the speed, the cadence of our steps, the length of our stride, and the total number of steps, along with two graphs referring to the cadence of our steps and the calories burn, in addition to the usual map showing the route we followed.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

All these records are saved in WearJoy so we can check them later, and we can choose to see them all or see only those corresponding to each exercise category.

(Click to enlarge)

In the health tracking apps section, in addition to the heart rate monitor we've already seen, we have three more. The first is the Sleep app, which is already more than familiar, in which we can see our total sleep time and how much time we spent awake, in deep sleep, and in light sleep.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

We also have the Blood Oxygen app, which begins measuring when opened and after a few seconds shows the percentage of oxygen in our blood. As with the heart rate, sliding up brings up a screen where we can see the measurement result, the maximum and minimum measurements of the day, and the results of any other readings we've taken over the past 24 hours.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

And another health-related app that has become common on smartwatches is the Breathing Exercises app. In it, we can select whether we want to perform the exercise for one, two, or three minutes, and whether we want the intensity of this exercise to be faster, calmer, or slower. After choosing and tapping the start button, the watch will tell us how often we should inhale and exhale.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

In addition to these three apps, the smartwatch includes an app that allows women to track their menstrual cycle. And to use it, you first need to configure a series of parameters in the WearJoy app.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

And just like the DT No. 1 smartwatches that use WearPro, the data collected by these apps is integrated into the WearJoy app, where we have several tabs for each one that show us the tracking of each of these apps, and we can view the results for the last day, the last week, the last month, and the last year.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

Other apps

The rest of the apps are the standard ones typically included in smartwatches, although there are some that we can find new in this model. As this watch is geared toward people who enjoy adventure and outdoor activities, the watch includes a Compass, as well as a Barometer that tells us the atmospheric pressure and altitude.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

And in addition to these two apps, we also have the Flashlight, which we already saw when I showed how the main button works by holding it down. This flashlight allows to have a steady light or a flashing light that we can activate if we need to send a signal.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

We have a Calendar where, of course, we CAN'T save any appointments or events and we can only view the calendar for the current month and the previous and following months. And another classic on these smartwatches is the Calculator.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

We also find the usual Recorder, where we can save recordings and listen to the recordings we have stored. When we open them we can play them, modify the volume, or delete them..

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

We also have the Alarm Clock. Here we have 5 alarms that we can modify, but unlike other watches, in this Tank T5 we can't create new alarms or delete any of the ones we have.

(Click to enlarge)

And of course, we also have a Stopwatch in case we need to use it, and the Timer, which offers 5 preset timers and a button to start a countdown with the time we want.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

And this next one is new! An app to measure decibels. We can use this if we have a neighbor who plays the music too loud, to show him the noise level when we complain.

(Click to enlarge)

As usual, we also find the Mobile Voice Assistant, which allows to use the watch to request something from the phone's voice assistant.

(Click to enlarge)

And it also includes something I always like: the World Time app. We can use this app to find out what time it is in other countries or what time it is in our own country if we're traveling. In it, we can select any country we want, and whenever we open this app, their time will appear. Although I must say that I find it disappointingly limited. First, because not all countries appear. And second, because in countries that use different time zones, such as the United States or Russia, we don't have all the time zones available, but only one of them.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

As always, we have the typical options to find our cell phone if we can't remember where we left it or if we want to find it quickly, and the remote shutter for the phone's camera, where we'll see the image from the phone's camera shown on the watch and we can select whether to use the main or front camera, and take the picture.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

And as with so many of the watches we've seen previously, we also have some games like 2048, the classic Snake from old cell phones, the Towers of Hanoi, or Sokoban. In total, they include six games, and as shown in the images above, more will be added. As I always say... they're there just in case we want to entertain ourselves.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

And now I'm going to mention two apps that I wanted to leave for last. The first is the Gallery, where we can view the photos and images stored on our phone. These photos and images must first be transferred from the WearJoy app by taking a photo or selecting one from our phone's gallery, and we can zoom in and out.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

In addition, by holding the finger on any of the images we can choose whether we want to use it as a smartwatch face or delete it.

(Click to enlarge)

And the next app is the Video Player, about which I should mention some important details. The first one is that in order to play them, we must first convert them to a format compatible with the tool that DT No. 1 offers for this conversion. In the WearJoy app, we have an option that shows us the address from which we can download this tool, and a tutorial that will teach us how to do this conversion and how to copy the videos to the watch using our computer.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

The second important point to keep in mind is that videos must be SQUARE, since if, for example, we convert a video that is in the elongated or rectangular screen format, the conversion tool will adjust or "shrink" the size so that the destination video is square, and when playing it, this change will be very noticeable.

And finally, I must recommend that you only copy short videos, as the smartwatch has 4 GB of available storage space, and considering that offline maps take up a good portion of this storage space, it's recommended to avoid copying very large files to the watch. Not to mention that it would seem a bit absurd to watch an entire movie on a smartwatch screen.

Leaving these important facts aside, I think the video playback is more than adequate and looks great.

(Click to enlarge)

Offline maps

One of the new features the manufacturer wanted to highlight compared to any of its previous smartwatches is the offline maps, which we've already seen when I talked about the sports app. If we use them with the watch's own Offline Maps app, we can see where we are or where we're moving at any time. Although I must warn you that these maps are limited compared to others you may be familiar with. In other words: this isn't "a Google Maps on our wrist," and we won't have street names, for example, nor will we be able to enter addresses for the map to show us directions or the route to get there. These maps are simply intended to show the route we followed while exercising, or if we want to see a map of the area we're moving through.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

Otra cosa importante que debo mencionar es que el tamaño en disco de estos mapas suele ser grande, y tenemos que tener en cuenta que el almacenamiento del reloj es de sólo 4 GB. En la aplicación WearJoy tenemos la dirección donde podemos descargar los mapas que necesitemos y un tutorial que explica cómo instalarlos. Yo probablemente dentro de poco también haga un vídeo explicando cómo descargarlos e instalarlos.

WearJoy app

At the beginning, I mentioned that I would use the smartwatch with WearJoy to see how this app works. Well, I can say that on one hand I really liked it, but on the other hand it's nothing new. And I say it's nothing new because it's exactly the same as WearPro, both in its performance and its options, and in fact, the interface is practically a copy of the other. It's true that it was developed by the same developers as WearPro, but they could have introduced something new to differentiate them.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

What I liked so much is simply its appearance, as it has a black background where all the information and elements are displayed in different shades of cream color, in addition to white, which looks very good.

I would say that visually it's very attractive, and functionally it's the same as what we already know. If I had to describe this app, I would say it's "WearPro with a very nice makeup."

Screen and battery

The screen, I must say, looks VERY good. I think it's one of the smartwatches with the sharpest AMOLED display, and its colors don't disappoint. Although I must also admit one thing, and it's that if we're using the minimum brightness level, the screen will look almost completely dark in bright environments. As always, indoors or at night, it will be perfectly visible at any brightness level, while in very sunny or bright environments, it will look worse.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

As for the battery, it lasts a long time. A VERY LONG time. Obviously, the fact that the battery is 860 mAh and the fact that this is a watch that connects to the phone via Bluetooth, and not an Android smartwatch, means it will have a long duration. In fact, the official website indicates that with just 10 minutes of charging, the battery will last a full day. I've had it for about two months, and while I admit I haven't had it on during all the day since I received it, I have used it in one way or another every single day (since I had to test its features for this review), and I haven't had to charge it yet.


With a standard use, it can last between 25 and 30 days, while with intensive use the battery will last between 15 and 20. As for the smartwatch's full charge time from 0% to 100%, it takes about three hours.

Watchfaces

And now let's see the watchfaces installation, which has some interesting options. As I mentioned at the beginning, at end of the watchfaces selection screen, we have the watch face market. We can use this in two ways. The first is on the watch itself, tapping the Add button, opening the watchfaces category we want to enter, and then tapping the button to download the watchface we want to install. Once downloaded we tap the Install button, and we'll have the watchface on the smartwatch.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

The second way is through the WearJoy app. There, in the watchfaces option, we find different categories. Getting inside any of them and choosing the one we want, tapping the Install button we copy the watch face to the smartwatch, and in a few seconds it will be ready to use.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

In addition, we can customize watch faces. We have an option called Premium Picture Watchface where we can create a watchface with any background we want. The first thing we do is add it by taking a picture or choosing it from our gallery. Once chosen, we can adjust its size and position, and then we can modify the brightness of the image in the background. Among the options we can choose we have digital watchface or analog watchface with hands. In the case of digital watches, we can change the text color, the font, and the info that will be shown above the time. Additionally, we can move both the time and the additional info to place it wherever we want.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

If we prefer an analog watchface, all we can select is the style of the hands.

(Click to enlarge)

Once we have it the way we like it, using the "Push" button we have the watch face we had already created on our smartwatch.

The next option allows us to do the same, but with videos. However, keep in mind that for this option we can only select 6 seconds of the video and a square area of ​​it. For this type of watchface we have the same options as for the previous one.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

And last, we have another option called "Picture Dial," which only allows to create digital watchfaces. Here we can also choose the background image, but we can't change its brightness. And for digital watch faces, this option has more possibilities than the one we previously saw. We can choose the text color, the font style, the position of the info on the screen, and the type of info that will be shown both above and below the time.

When we're finished, with the Save button we'll install the watchface on the watch.

(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)(Click to enlarge)

And now comes the little surprise I mentioned when I explained how to change the watch face, and it's that we you can create watchfaces to be installed. A few weeks ago, the guys at DT No. 1 finally shared a method to create watchfaces and install them on watches with the ATS3085S chip, which is what this Tank T5 and other models use.

(Click to enlarge)

This is something I, as a watch face creator, have been waiting for a long time. So I'm going to start studying this method and when I master it I'll launch a section on my blog with watchfaces that you can download and install if you have a smartwatch with this CPU, and I'll also make a video explaining how to install them.

Price and availability

The KKTICK Tank T5 is available in just one color; we have no other options than this black model with metallic blue details. Plus, when you buy it, you can add TWS earphones and a black metallic strap, totally free.

Its price is almost 120 dollars or 103 euros. But with the discount code you can see here and which I also added in the description, you can buy it 50% off. Yes, instead of 45% like when I did the unboxing and the resistance tests, the discount is now 50%. And they've also extended the period of this discount code until November 30th.

Conclusions

The truth is that I really liked this smartwatch, and for many reasons. The first one is its appearance, and when I took it out of the box I really liked its aesthetics and details.

The second reason is its durability, as the tests I performed on it pleasantly surprised me. Its resistance to water and, above all, to the car passing over it or freezing in ice makes this watch to withstand virtually any environment where we use it.

As for its functionality, first of all I find it very fluid in operation and with good tactile performance. The screen display seems more than adequate to me, despite the typical display problem in very bright environments, something common to many smartwatches.

I find its sports activity monitoring to be quite comprehensive, both for its many sports modes and for all the information it offers. And I found it very interesting that they added the ability to measure heart rate recovery after finishing doing exercises. As for the health monitoring options, they're very standard and do their job.

The additional apps are enough, and I haven't missed any. And as for calls or music playback, the audio is more than acceptable, and I've even tested it with TWS headphones, and their performance has been more than adequate.

The battery, as I said, lasts a long time. I think of all the smartwatches I've used, after the Haylou Solar, this is the one that has given me the longest battery life. If you use it a lot, it can last about 10 days, and with a normal use I think it will easily exceed three weeks.

Last, as a watchfaces creator, I like that the guys at DT No. 1 have finally shared a tool to create them. That, combined with its performance and the beautiful stainless steel strap it includes, makes this smartwatch become one that I'll certainly use very, very frequently.

On the downside, I think the offline maps can show some glitches, and the WearJoy app should be more than just a "WearPro facelift."

For all this, my score for this KKTICK Tank T5 is 8.5.
