@@joshuafuhrmeister7279 I believe Amazfit is now in Target and bestbuy so price increases were inevitable, unfortunately. I love my Trex pro I don’t even see a reason to upgrade to a trex 2 because the amount of notable features they add to each generation is minimal. Perhaps I’ll wait for a holiday sale and see what the discounts are.

Once again precise in-depth review. Congrats! Amazfit Pace was my very first gps watch for running, back in 2017. Right afterwards I upgraded to Amazfit Stratos when it was released. Both watches gave me a lot of happiness (ran my first half marathon with Pace version and first marathon with Stratos version. Both were accurated), but after two years of intense usage gps became unaccurate. No software upgrade, no technical assistance in Brazil, then I saw it was time to updgrade again. Then I started in Garmin path. 245 then 255. I think Amazfit a very good watch, beautiful piece, however when we are talking about sports/healthy accuracy mesuring I stick with Garmin and problably other brands like it. Maybe it's a trauma. hahaha. But I stil do respect and have compliments to Amazfit. If I don't run, I'd probably have an Amazfit.

@@amircastilla07 My eyes sight is a little tired. I believed going to a bigger screen I'd have bigger fonts, then I could read the screen easier. Terrible mistake. In the beggining was ok. But after a few Firmware updates Garmin reduced the font sizes. At Garmin Forums we are in constant discussion why they have reduced fonts in a bigger screen (255). If you have a 245 and feel happy with it I don't see any need to upgrade, in terms of features. Tech in both watches are awesome. Of course, 255 has some better points (because has more updated tech). You probably had seen in this wonderful channel, as well as full info about 245. Good tranings.

I switched from Coros Vertex to TREX2 in December, and while I can’t comment on the Ultra, I can say that I agree with many points on the brand. First, HR is hit or miss. However, Coros HR problems has their own HR problems. I try and stick with HR band when I’m concerned about accuracy, regardless. I love everything else about the watch except the Strava integration. They don’t send elevation data to Strava so Strava has to use its own topography maps to estimate elevation gains. When training for a mountain/elevation race, having an accurate reading of total elevation gain is crucial. Strava’s estimate reduces total elevation by 30-45%. It’s ugly.

Even though the technical features are closer to the tier 1 brands, the infrastructure that a watch brings makes the big difference, , such as Garmin Connect, this is still unmatched in my opinion. That's why I think that the infrastructure that a watch brings with it must also be taken into account when assessing the price. Then a wristband that cannot be replaced? Really? Even the expensive plastic straps from Garmin look worn and no longer beautiful after half a year, which is why I find it essential to be able to replace the strap. Non-exchangeable straps can only be justified on watches that are not made for sport.

If you want a sports watch I would say that a decent heartrate monitor should be the top priority and then you can skimp on things like social media notifications and music for all I care. Also build quality comes to mind and while this watch is designed a bit like the Rambo knife's with built in needle compass, fishing line and first aid kit, sometimes less is more if it includes top quality components instead of flashy 'eye candy'. Personally I want my sports watch to be a tough as nails and focussing purely on the sports aspect. I don't care about golf, fishing, dancing, playing computer games, or social media notifications, and would much rather that those resources/money were spent on quality. I think the closest I can get to that these days for the lowest price is the Fenix 7 sapphire solar, which certainly isn't a cheap watch but probably lasts better than most others and even carry a decent second had price if you want to upgrade as the new model's come onto the market.

Great review. Its very appealing but as you mentioned on the video the heart rate sensor is very DISAPPOINTING. I don’t understand WHY Amazfit will launch 2nd new watch after the GTR 4 with “improve heart rate sensor” and still use the old heart rate sensor. I could by for another $100 a new Garmin 965 with better performance all around (gps, heart rate, mapping, music, etc) non military specs. Yes, I agree with you that Amazfit is moving in the right direction with mapping , gps but cannot get the heart rate right. Can you please make a short review of the heart rate sensor on the GTR 4.

@@MarceloBacchi Tldr: For me it is comparable to my other HR monitors, that's the most important thing. So I could not tell you if it's perfect. I never measured my heart rate with a perfect system. But I have a OMRON blood pressure monitor that gives me the same reading, so I trust the watch. The watch is just a little bit slow in updating when big changes occur so I use the watch for everyday use and normal training, and on race days or interval training I use a strap external monitor with higher update interval that I connect to the Ultra. For me its important that my HR is the same as the monitor that I use with biking and other sports, it does not have to be my true heart rate , but it has to be consistent so i know where I'm at. I think you should only look at your "perfect heart rate for medical purposes.

@@domenicoperrelli4016 I had both before moving to a Suunto Vertical Titanium. I found the T-Rex 2 incredible accurate in a 60 kilometer ultra. In fact, despite of not having maps, the T-Rex 2 is a lot lighter and has much better battery life. If you are ok with the very basic navigation, it's a better watch than the T-Rex Ultra.

Any idea what "Membership cards" is used for? Purpose?

@ChaseTheSummit Жыл бұрын
Not entirely sure, it looks like it scans QR codes and stores them to the watch so if you have a membership to a gym or something with a QR scanner you could use the watch instead of the card? I was expecting NFC but that's not the case.

just a comment about the "cheap plastic" of trex pro. I bought my trex pro in august 2021, after more than 1 year and half it appears like just "out of the box". Plastics didn't decay in appearance and in characteristics, there aren't scratches on the glass and only a little scratch due to a little incident I had last summer. Materials in trex pro are really a false problem.

I personally don’t have an issue with plastics. In fact they tend to survive scratches better than metal since metal scratches leave an unsightly shiny spot. Though, for super rugged applications and for a more “premium” feel I think a lot of people like the metal bezel and back plates.

All reviews i have seen does not shows how the watch interacts with an iPhone functions like texts and calls. This is what keeps me from buying the watch. Please include these features on you future reviews.

You cannot answer phone calls on the T-Rex Ultra as there's no speaker or microphone on board. Messages and Notifications do show up however it's just something I didn't mention because that's essentially the bare minimum for any smartwatch these days!

I really like the look of this vs my Garmin Instinct 2X but cant find any info about the flashlight on the Ultra. obviously it wont be as great as the dedicated LED on the Instinct. But can you tell me how bright the flashlight is? Is it usable?

Its just to find your keys in a dark room, or your bag. But not for lighting a trail.

It took me 5 minutes to download a map of my town to the watch. And, while i did have to download another app, it did give me turn by turn directions (through Google maps on my phone phone, lol).

Hi Dave!!!... Great review as always and very nice studio set up. As for the watch adding weight for looks and feels is not the way to go. The lighter the watch the better at least for me. Looks like a good device for adventurers but not for runners. Cheers from México.

Size and weight is certainly a personal preference. I do like lighter watches as well but this one does feel really well built.

The only upgrade from the T-Rex 2,is the built quality.And they ask 400 euro,for this smartwatch...this is a joke(no titanium and no sapphire glass).The zepp app,need a lot improvements,and the sensors too.If it had newer sensors,NFC,better price and official service in Greece...maybe I would consider buying it.

For loading maps at the trailhead, could you try connecting the watch to your mobile hotspot and then do it? Seems like that'd be a workaround the Wi-Fi issue.

Will you also check out the GBD-H2000? I'm very interested in the watch, but the reports about the heart rate sensor and a very bad software make a disappointing impression again. I trust your reviews the most and would appreciate it.
