Amazfit T-Rex Smartwatch Review - I love it!

[@neilreid9005]

Just got mine. It's even better than the videos- there's a great deal to like about this watch, starting with the price point for this many features. Intuitive user interface, very easy to configure, and change configs, has all the health, weather, compass, and notifications I'm looking for, plus it's very light and super comfortable. 11/10 score.

[@RedskullPro]

yeah, awesome watch! I wear it daily now :)

[@MrExprise]

How's the watch going now? Does the battery consistently last 2 weeks?

[@jerryx2000]

do you still have it? How is the battery life now?

[@ronyzmiri]

Got myself my first smartwatch, the Amazfit T rex. I have a complete beginner question - should I turn OFF my T Rex from time to time? When turning On again will it syncronize with the App? Should my phone be on Bluetooth turned ON for the the watch to be syncronized with the App? Thanks for replying)

Hi there, nicd review! Recently the battery of my Amazfit Stratos gave up. I am now looking for a new Amazfit watch; I would like an AMOLED screen and will use it primarily for outdoor cycling, so accurate and fast locking GPS is important for me. Hence I am looking at the GTR and the T-Rex. Which of the two would you recommend?

[@RedskullPro]

Hey, features and software wise they are identical. I prefer the t-rex because of the sporty look

[@dekik.979]

Thanks for the review. Does it support swimming or triathlon? Does it pair with Strava?

[@rhettoracle9679]

Great battery life for continuous GPS! Cheers

[@yvindRosmer]

Hello. I like the design of this watch, but have no need for fitness tracking. Can you turn off heart rate monitoring, step counting, sleep tracking etc? Basically i am looking for a smartwatch with long batterylife, music control and notifications from my smartphone. Can you recommmend this T-Rex for those functions, or maybe an other watch? Thank you

[@RedskullPro]

Hey, you can turn off the heart monitoring, the steps will stay on no matter what but if you turn off the heart rate and notifications the watch will last over a month on a charge

[@raghibali3051]

Why the T-Rex watch needs the Amazfit app to run in foreground to control music through the watch? How can I play KZbin music in this case?

[@absabs129]

does it have abc functions aswell as sunrise/sunset / moon / tide graphs ????

[@VideoGalerija]

How many times the watch vibrates after reaching the certain "workout goal"? For example after every 2 minutes.

[@neilwillis4694]

Didn't notice a mutil-sport setting as you scrolled through for Aquathlon, Duathlon & Triathlon.

[@NirHason]

Thanks for the video! Can I store music in the watch so I can connect Bluetooth headphones and play the music directly from it without the need to take the phone with?

[@jasonguzman1672]

Nope

[@21stand8th]

I just ordered this watch, can't wait to until it arrives

[@RedskullPro]

Great watch!

[@tgy13]

Hey Redskull thanks for great video. I have question I got mine after watch. For example whatsapp notifications if comes several cant see one by one and it says you have 5 messages. And if i wanna see them I am going back and come again. Any idea? And vibration level is to high amd make noise on my wrist while I am in silence place, any settings on this? By the not waking up screen everytime that I wanna swing my wrist. If you share your opinion would be awesome. And last thing your watch face is great but not in store?

[@Love-Runs-Blind]

Is it worth the price? I saw some video where the Heart rate giving false results or even showing numbers when kept on bed. Is it fake heart rate sensor? How’s the build quality and the screen won’t get off suddenly I believe. Plz reply. I roils like to buy this watch

[@RedskullPro]

I've been using it daily since this video and I truly believe it' a good watch. The heart rate monitor is real but the results may vary depending on your skin colour

[@Love-Runs-Blind]

Redskull thank you so much

[@Love-Runs-Blind]

I need one help from you. Can u please chk whether the oximetry is giving reading if you are not wearing the watch? You just put it on table and put the sensor on. I have seen a video where it’s giving reading even on table when you are not even wearing it. There are cheap pulse oxygen meters in market which are fake as if u put fen , pencil or anything instead of finger it will give some reading. This is the thing which is stopping me from buying this. Can u plz check it and guide me bro. Thanks in advance

[@Abhishek-ml2tm]

Hi Redskull, Nice review. I have had mine for a few weeks and really like it. However, it recently stopped monitoring my sleep. I have re-started watch and phone without success. Can you help please? Many thanks.

Hey, I never used mine for sleep monitoring... i find it too big on my wrist at night..so I can't really say. Maybe a factory reset and setting it up again would help

[@martinchan5302]

Very disappointed with the watch. got the chinese model, it sucks. my experience is, whenever GPS is activated under outdoor tracking mode, the watch will at some point jump out of tracking mode suddenly, or even shutdown and restart, without saying gps signal is lost or weak. it happens EVERY SINGLE TIME whenever gps is used. However indoor running mode and free training mode works fine. i can conclude the GPS function is deficient. Huami sucks. i use the most updated android version(10) , the latest app version from google(4.6.0) , and latest firmware on watch(v00177)

Interesting. I've been using mine daily and I haven't had a single issue with the GPS. I use it for walking and biking
