I have had it for about 3 months and I use it daily. It is lightweight, seems waterproof (it hasn't been tested in rain), and comfortable on the back, even when full.

The main compartment has quite a large capacity and is almost one piece, while it expands with an external zipper for even more space - I have needed that several times. Satisfactory protection for the laptop, but the pocket in front of my laptop compartment came apart after minimal use. Generally, the internal seams are not very durable.

The middle pocket is good for relatively thin items, with very basic organization, while the front fits a small A5 notebook and generally small and thin items.

The straps seem to hold up (that's where cheap backpacks fail), and the zippers are delightful, large, and open easily.

Overall, a budget-friendly and comfortable backpack for daily use and short trips, but it lacks in quality and organization capability for items. For the money, it is good though, if someone doesn't want to spend more for something better.

Recently, I received this as a promotional item from a partner. The truth is, I didn't expect much from it, given its small capacity (with mobile phone batteries now being 5000mAh).

It is made of metal, with a sturdy construction and a LED light that is not very clear and activates when the power bank is charging as well as when devices are being charged through it. It also has an on-off button that you need to press to start charging - otherwise, you will be waiting in vain!

What impressed me positively is that when I charge, for example, smartwatches (with batteries of 300-400 mAh), which with other power banks of 10,000 mAh reach only about 90%, this one fully charges them!

Overall, with its small size and weight, it found its place in my backpack and I use it in case of emergency, mainly for small devices (Bluetooth headphones, smartwatches, etc.) and occasionally for my phone when it's running low on battery.

I have had it for about a year, purchased from Amazon.uk on sale for about €120, and it replaced a Huawei Watch GT (Gen 1).

The reason I bought it is for the Wear OS, to have more capabilities compared to a typical smartwatch. It supports esim (so it can be used as a 4G mobile) but with patents, there are relevant instructions on the internet. I haven't tried it myself.

Pros:
- Sturdy construction and large size, ideal for a male wrist
- Very good battery life (for a Wear OS smartwatch), easily lasts 2 days - even 3 if WiFi/GPS (fitness tracking, etc.) is not used much, thanks to the use of dual screens
- Supports Google Wallet, so you can make payments everywhere with the watch
- Accurate measurements, I don't have a point of comparison but I don't see significant differences compared to my friends' watches when we run together
- Overall, it is fast and responsive thanks to the very good hardware (CPU, RAM, ROM)
- Recently upgraded (with great difficulty) to Wear OS 3.5, which will likely be the last update it receives
- Clear sound for calls (microphone and speaker) through the mobile phone
- Notifications work well, you can read email previews, messages, Messenger, everything, and you can reply (although it's difficult with such a small screen keyboard). It also supports Greek text properly.
- Good mobile app, provides various information without being something special
- Infinite watchfaces, both through the Mobvoi app (TimeShow) and third-party options

Cons:
- Not waterproof: It's okay for rain, possibly even for swimming pools, but if you read about the water-related issues, you won't risk it.
- After the upgrade to 3.5, it doesn't have Google Assistant. It's not the company's fault but Google's (Wear OS). It was incredibly useful while it was working.
- There is no repair center, so if it breaks within the warranty period, you have to contact the manufacturer directly (China) to sort it out. If it's out of warranty, you just cry about it.

Overall, it is a decent smartwatch, with many capabilities and good hardware, but with support issues (see the upgrade to Wear OS 3.5) and construction problems (e.g. read about battery swelling, waterproofing issues, etc. that may also appear in other smartwatches).

Nice, lightweight, waterproof for use in the pool, with a clear screen and a very good battery. BUT:

I bought it for my son from Mobvoi (online), it stopped charging after two weeks and they replaced it relatively easily (there is no repair center in Greece). The second one (GTH Pro) broke within a few months under warranty (the screen doesn't turn on) and they sent me a third one (regular GTH), which also broke but out of warranty (it constantly connects and disconnects from the phone every 3 seconds).

Overall, Ticwatch watches are decent (I have a Pro 3 LTE for a year without any problems) but with proven hardware issues that you can read about online. It requires caution when charging (NOT with a fast charger, that's probably how the first one broke, only with a slow 5V/1A charger) but even then, the situation is not saved.

I would not choose Ticwatch again for my son, as other brands (e.g. my son's Haylou) have proven to be more reliable, although they lack in other features.

Quite cute and practical, considering its low price. Strong sound, but with little bass, which distorts after a certain point. Easy connection with the mobile, supports microSD cards for MP3 playback without connection to another device. It is rather heavy for its size and appears to have a sturdy construction.

I have had it for over a year and it has saved me: I fill up the car tires with air when I have time, at home, without needing to go to the gas station. Once, I inflated a tire that had a nail almost halfway through and managed to drive to the vulcanizer to fix it.

I have also inflated bicycle tires, balls, everything works fine! It is small and relatively heavy, but you can easily leave it in the trunk for emergencies. I see that its price has increased compared to when I bought it, so if I were to buy it now, I would look at other alternatives as well.

One of the most interesting books I have read recently, as it combines geography and history in one. It helped me solve questions I had about the expansion of countries over time, conflicts between countries, the logic behind strange alliances, etc. Obviously, it does not include the most recent events, such as Russia's invasion of Ukraine, but the logic behind it is already covered in a relevant chapter of the book.

I highly recommend it to those who read history and geography books.

Perhaps the best dishwasher capsules I have ever used. They dissolve easily without leaving any residue like others, clean perfectly even on the short cycle, and leave a pleasant lemon scent at the end. It's no coincidence that the packaging mentions an even shorter washing cycle, probably for professional dishwashers.

I have already bought 2 packs and I will hardly choose any other tablets in the future.
