Defective units can be replaced or returned for refund within 30 days of purchase. Non-defective units can be returned in the same time frame if in like-new condition with a 20 percent restocking fee applied. If the unit has had altered firmware or became bricked due to a non-standard firmware flash, the board may not be eligible for return.

Sales tax is required in many states and will be added at checkout if applicable to your delivery state. Tax exempt forms can be sent to our support department.

Great for 3hrs

Don’t plan to wear it all day, this device has a very short battery life. Otherwise it works well as a Meshtastic node.

Dead battery

Looks like a cool watch. It only powers on when plugged in, so I haven't done anything with it really...

Hi Alan, we are sorry to hear about this. If you are charging from a PC USB port, the current may be to low. If you have tried multiple charging sources including a wall USB charger, please let us know and we can get the watch replaced for you. Thank you!

What I was looking for, however I have some qualms with the listing itself, not the product.

Note, If this review doesn’t make any sense to you, this is not the watch for you! This product is a dev kit intended for people willing and wanting to write the code to make the bare hardware work. This is not a functional consumer product out of the box. If you do know what youre looking for, hopefully my review can help clarify things.

Buyers should note that the S3 version is not compatible with the software for other versions of the LilyGo T-Watch, and the GitHub linked in the description is not accurate.
While it shares some characteristics with the 2020v3, it uses a different chipset and instruction set. The two are not compatible, and the S3 has much less community support as of this writing,

The T-watch-S3 uses an ESP32S3 MCU with 16Mb flash, 8Mb PSRAM , Sx1262(LoRa transceiver), AXP2101 power management unit, and an IR emitter diode. The esp32s3 uses Xtensa® Dual-core 32-bit LX7 running at 240MHz utilizing the RISC-V Microprocessor instruction set and requires esp-idf version 4.6 or greater to build for. The biggest difference is this chip lacks support for an SD card and has more available GPIO pins (45). The pinouts are different between these two watch models.
The GitHub repo for that particular branch is to match This watch* can be found here. (Or, if using the git cli utility: git clone –branch t-watch-s3 https://github.com/Xinyuan-LilyGO/TTGO_TWatch_Library/ )

The T-Watch2020v3 That this watch closely resembles uses a ESP32-D0WDQ6-V3 MCU with 16Mb flash, SRAM 520 kB SRAM / PSRAM 8MB, AXP202 power management unit, also has the IR Diode, but does not have the Sx1262 LoRa chip. The ESP32-DOWDQ6V3 also uses the Xtensa® Dual-core 32-bit LX7 chipset running at a clock rate of 240MHz. This watch does include SD card support, however it lacks the same number of available pins(22).
If you find a good deal on the 202v3, This software for it is excellent. However, it is not compatible with this watch listing. GitHub - sharandac/My-TTGO-Watch: A GUI named hedge for smartwatch like devices based on ESP32. Currently support for T-Watch2020 (V1,V2,V3), T-Watch2021, M5Paper, M5Core2 and native Linux support for testing.

This Needs to be made clear in the listing as physically the devices look identical and in fact use the same casing and strap. At the very least the links for the firmware need to be updated.

a good watch

Previously left a review about the watch battery running out but discovered the wifi disconnect needed a 'true' passed in to also turn it off or it would drain the battery.

However, I was trying to get it to mimic a 433MHz garage door opener and the spectrum analyzing code on github doesn't seem to function at all, or the radio doesn't - but that's not really what I got the watch for so I didn't exactly try hard.

Battery life will vary based on WiFi and Bluetooth connections and how long the screen is on. Based on factory firmware testing, with a battery voltage of 4.1V~4.2V, the screen is observed every 2 hours, displaying for approximately 15 seconds before automatically resting, the standby battery life is approximately 48 hours. Our team has reached out to you via email to confirm how the watch is being used.
