At just $160, Mobvoi’s Ticwatch E is one of the cheapest full touchscreen smartwatches you can buy, and it hasn’t skimped on the feature list, offering both a heart-rate sensor and GPS. This elevates it beyond watches that cost twice as much. We’ve worn one to see if the low price means corners have been cut elsewhere.
