What I really like about the reviewers works is your power to steer the companies in the right direction. I have a TRex-3 and your review was spot on. I really hope Amazfit is listening! Thank you for your work.

I been rocking it for 3 weeks and I love it has been solid however one thing to mention they did an update to be able to reply to text only works with android operating systems IOS you don’t have the capability. The most for me important feature is tracking my sleep apnea has been on point and it deviated 2% from my CPAP machine.

Hi Des I am one of your earliest subscribers from Nepal. I watch your reviews regularly and have garnered a significant amount of knowledge on the sports wearables. My request here to you is to do a review on Huawei watch GT5 and GT5 Pro. I know those are banned in the US but nonetheless you can give it a shot. Thank you.

Watching the GPS section made me think that it's crazy Garmin is selling the Fenix E for $800 without dual band technology. It was already a miss years back when they used to call it Epix Gen 2.

Especially strange considering that the Instinct 2X, for which I paid 270 €, does have dual band GPS. Even the cheapo Huawei models like the GT5 have dual band. Garmin is way overpriced.

For me, this watch has been super solid except the readiness score which is way too nice to me and for some reason it has problems connecting to my heart rate strap for the first 10 minutes of my runs and this is after I've confirmed that it's connected before the run.

What do you think about treadmill running with stable speed? Trex offers two way of doing treadmill running, either with setting stable speed or normal mode which is calculating speed like any other watch. I'm curious about your opinion, cause I started to wonder why other sports watch brands doesn't have that mode included.

Yes, the T Rex 3 is not a Garmin Kilker. But I had the Garmin Fenix ​​8 and for me it wasn't worth the money at all!!! I can't understand the hype about Garmin watches. The operating system on the Fenix ​​8 was a disaster... too slow, too tedious to find anything quickly!! Amazfit is doing everything right and they will continue to grow.

I have T Rex 2 , was planning to get T Rex 3 but my issue with Amazfit is accuracy at least in my opinion, my unused T Rex 2 sitting here collecting dust has severe accuracy issues and Amazfit is quick of abandoning their previous products on software updates once they release a new one which is a No No , I ended up going for Garmin Fenix 8 which cost a lot more, it's not perfect either but at least it's accurate with a companion of my apple watch Ultra 2, I think Amazfit makes incredible products specially The build and their battery life is top notch but accuracy and software support are their cons IMO

I sold my Fenix 7 (because of the dim MIP display) and bought a Instinct 2X - better contrast on the black and white display. It's easy to read, has huge battery life and almost every feature of the Fenix except "napping" and music. But for music I wear a Huawei on the other wrist for workouts. Huawei has way better sleep tracking but misses HRV and the VO2max is way too optimistic. Everything else though is on par with Garmin - heart rate and GPS accuracy are the same.

Interesting review. I bought the TR3 upon launch (first Amazfit watch), and it has had multiple updates. As a runner, this watch is amazing value for money, it only really lacks in power features. Yes I can connect my Stryd pod, but it can't sync with the Stryd software, and it has limited power data fields, no Average 3 sec power etc. I've also found that, testing the wrist HR against my Polar H10 is very accurate for me, only 1 or 2 beats difference on average. I still prefer running with the HR strap though. Totally agree with the sleep metrics being a bit wonky, but I've no interest in that, so not an issue for me. I haven't had any slow down at all with the maps, no matter what settings you use, so maybe that issue has been sorted via updates.

It's a specs king. On paper it has everything a Garmin of 3x the price has. But in reality it also has major flaws, like it can't really navigate,it has widgets but they freeze and take time to load, sensors not accurate, they lie about battery claims, has a mic but not a speaker etc.
@stefangpa
@stefangpa 5 күн бұрын
I don't really agree with your opinion, I have the watch for a month now and nothing has freezed even once, everything runs really smoothly. The gps is one of the best I have used and believe me I have used a lot. Heart rate has disappoint me twice when for about 5 -7 minutes stuck at certain BPM but this is probably due to cold weather and my really frozen hands( I think I have a situation) Speaker is missing ok, but 4 months ago no sports watch had a speaker, same goes with the flashlight. The thing that pleases me more is that many sports are fully customizable and are not plug n play, for instance in padel activity it counts forehands and backhands something that polar or suunto doesn't.Let's see what trex 4 will bring

If it didn't have that weird octagonal shape, and was offered in a sapphire glass version, and had a torch built in, then I would definitely consider getting one rather than pay through my nose for the latest Garmin Fenix 8 with all those additional features that I do not need, and certainly do not want to pay for either.

I tried and owned many Garmins over the years. IMHO the best deal currently is the Instinct 2X. Insane battery life and has almost everything the Fenix 7 has except "napping" feature and internal music player. I sold both my Fenix 7 Pro and 7X and only use the Instinct now and a Huawei watch on the other wrist (GT5 or Fit 3) for listening to music 😂.
