Thanks for watching my Amazfit GTR 4 review, hoping to get the GTS 4 on the go soon - and please do ignore any Telegram competition nonsense from spambots, that's not me! Cheers!
I have the GTR 2, brilliant watch and hasn't let me down. I easily get 2 weeks of battery between charges still. No app support but it's a no nonsense smart watch
BEWARE: Amazfit may have been upgrading the sensors from generation to generation but one thing they have NOT upgraded was their HR algorithm. Now in the fourth generation, the watch is still suffering from a major flaw in that if fails to pick up the pulse in sudden and rapid spikes of the HR, in activities such as cycling, interval training, swimming and a few others. I could be climbing an uphill on my cycle getting an HR of as low as 56bpm (?). Amazfit is well aware of this problem but they have NOT bothered to adjust their algorithms as yet. The new Falcon as well as the T-REX 2 both suffer from the same flaw. It is possible that the flaw may have been passed on to other models of the Amazfit lineup as well.
@@SibTiger33 Most of the times I start my activities manually. but It makes no difference. I have pulled all sorts of tricks, played with the settings, rebooted to factory settings, all to no avail. Two things that may help is first, wearing the watch as farther back on your arm and secondly, if it happens from the very start of the workout, you need to end the session and begin a new one until it locks on the actual HR. What do you do when it looses track amidst a workout? You just ignore it and you don't let it spoil your mood.
Years back I had the Samsung Gear S3, I had to charge it every night. After two years it died. Since then I have used the original GTR, it is still going strong many years later. This new GTR4 looks excellent too. If I were to get a new smartwatch, I'd go for this one. Good stuff!
I bought a Samsung Watch 4 last September. I went to put it on a few days ago and it was bricked. Won't charge or anything. That's what $300 gets you nowadays I guess. Never getting another Samsung watch unless they improve the quality. My boyfriend bought this one for me as a Christmas present. Let's see how it holds up!
Yap.. some may say that it's okay to only have one day or two and simply re-charge the battery, but batteries have what's called life cycle. The more frequent the battery is charged, the faster it comes to its death (or at least the battery's optimal use)..
I am using the original GTR and its going great. I don't see any significant increment in features to want to upgrade yet. Yes, mine doesn't have calling or an SpO² monitor but I can live without those. 😀
Been using it for like a week now, I am happy with it overall but I'm concerned it's sleep tracking is really bad, my old trex pro had a better one, was way more accurate within sleep phases and showing when I was awake, my gtr 4 shows I fell asleep way before I actually did and sometimes shows I slept the whole night when I had awaken several times.
I have the gtr 4 and I actually got 11 days of usage out of it. Yes I didn't have the alway on display but I did get the 11 days. On other days I get 10. Love the watch. Won't go back to samsung
I really like the GTR 4, but I am still waiting for Zepp OS to offer a camera viewfinder app for looking into tight spaces. Love that tool on the Apple watch.
I had the GTS2 and now have the GTS3 so I'm looking forward to the GTS4. I'm completely sports adverse, so the watch will get very little workout use, but I love the sleep tracking and heart rate 02 monitoring etc and things like the timers and alarms, notifications, weather (and find your phone!). The 4 has got indoor walking added I believe, which could be good for the walking treadmill I've got , and also fall detection is a nice addition. We have a downstairs bathroom so have to negotiate the stairs in a coma now and again in the night. It'll be terrific for answering a call when I'm cooking and not having to handle my phone. Smart watches are advertised with honed young people doing endless exercise, but they're getting really useful for us old biddies too.
@@TheRebs7 You reflect exactly why I wear the gtr 2. Also the gtr line up all look superb, especially the silver cases. I will get myself the 4 for christmas. By the way I'm finding the glass is easy to crack, I have 2 very fine cracks in mine. Have yours stayed uncracked?
@@robertjpayne Oh that's a shame. Wonder what caused that? Mine have been fine and I'm always amazed how shiny and scratch free they stay. It's nice, too, when you pass them on that they look pristine. I enjoyed the upgrade from the 2 to the 3 so I think you'll enjoy the 4 at Christmas.
@@TheRebs7 thanks for your endorsement of the 4. its been a while since I was excited by new kit and its quite motivating to see my steps and heart rate (I need to lose a few pounds)
@Rebs7, don't suppose you have a link to your walking treadmill? I'm trying to avoid the huge, not needed running treadmill but don't want something flimsy either!
Good review! Just to note, if you have an Android phone then the GTR4 allows you to reply to messages from the watch. You can reply from pre configured messages that you save but can't type to reply
I'm still with my GTR 1 😂 Mabye this will be funny to all of you but this watch has already more than enogh for me Every added thing after is good, but for me I think most of people at the end of the day want use 80% of those things It's cool if you really want it But for me I like it simple and doing it's job
Hi, I bought this watch and basically I am very happy with this choice. However the phone calls via the watch are a bit uncomfortable since the person on the other side keeps hearing an echo of his voice. I hoped a firmware update would help but the last one did not change anything. Anyone having this issue? Any solutions? Thanks in advance.
I am pretty pleased with my GTR (the 1st GTR). I still get about 20 days of battery and its got everything I need. Infact its got some functions that I don't use at all. I therefore don't see myself upgrading to the latest GTR4. I don't need the calling function and will definitely not like to take a call on speaker. I don't save music on my wearable and I am quite satisfied with the bio-trackers on my current watch.
Its not unreliable or not accurate. Its better than most of his price tag. Its quite accurate actually but its not on par with high end smart watch like apple and samsung.
Pretty decent watch. I'm not very big on feature loaded watches. I just want something that can handle notifications and some customization so I don't get bored of it. Great review as always. Thanks!
Excellent review! What's your experience with its tracking stair count? I've tried several times going up and down at home and it just doesn't track properly at all.
Unfortunately you have to look at the accuracy of the health metrics. Great that it tracks a workout and sleep but if the accuracy is poor then what's the point.
They adjust over time. Initially they are a bit off. After a week or so they learn your activities and become very accurate. I've had a few different ones. After a week or so they are spot on.
Thanks for the video, here are 2 questions that I have: 1. How does the GTR 4 compare to the Watch 4 Classic 46"? 2. Would you choose the GTR 4 or wait for the GTR 4 Pro?
Great review and i still rock my amazfit pace and the standby time is really great after all these years. The main problem i have is the zapp app and all the data it needs so i rather want to use it with googlefit only
@@niplob Thank god i dont care about these things tho. I mean, its nice to have but not paying 350+ for shit like this when i use my phone for the apps and my watch just for music control and stepcounter/sport tracking.
Everyone who raves about the GTR4 just raves about the big battery. I bought one of these two weeks ago and found, as you did, that it does a horrible job of keeping track of fitness metrics. The steps are all over the place, it has no clue when or how I am sleeping, pulse is sketchy and not real time, and the PAI's make no sense. A 3 mile treadmill run might send the PAI's through the roof but an extreme, 18 mile mountain ride will barely budge them. I could go on, but this thing is a complete failure as a fitness tracker.
Thank you for the review. Can you tell me if the body of the watch is black? I thought it was Grey... How would it look with a silicone black strap? Thank you
If these cheaper "smart" watches had google maps or an equivalent I'd be sold... I've most recently had an amazfit bip and went back to a normal watch. Google Fit tracks my steps on my phone, and I don't really care about heart rate or o2 levels. While it's smooth to use navigation is the one feature that would sell me on trying one again.
It has its own maps. Your walks, rides and runs are shown in the Zepp app and you can see on a map exactly where you have been without Google knowing your every movement!
For directions there are third party apps that can get Google map directions directly on the watch. But not as nice as wear os where you can look around on the map
Great review, thank you. Would this be a good watch for an elderly person to make eceive calls, monitor heart rate, spo2 and fall detection? Or would the Huawei Watch 3 be a better option.
Great review. Can you please share your thoughts about the compass? How accurate is it? I sold my GTR 2 because of the compass but I want to switch back to Amazfit again wondering about the compass.
Wonderful Review 😉 I have also watched the reviews of the GT3 and the GT3 Pro and still can't decide is the GT4 gonna be "Much " of an Upgrade in comparison 🤔
Im considering to buy this watch but dunno if I its really that big of a change from the gtr3 pro? should I w8 for the gtr4 pro? Or should I buy the garmin venu 2 *plus* that i heard alot of good stuff about it. (Spotify and payment feature include) what you say?
I love to hear you. It doesn't matter what you are talking about. I just enjoy your accent. Can you tell me which smart watch had more accurate HR and GPS: GTR4 or Galaxy watch 5 pro?
Hello, Can you exit to the main menu while in the workout mode ? I usually use the timer between sets so this feature would be a deal braker for me...Thanks!
Hello Tech Spurt. Thanks for this video and many others, been watching your videos for a while now. On this one, would you be able to confirm if the GTR4 can connect to external heart rate sensors, such as the Polar H10? 'settings>Bluetooth>workout accessory, then add device'?
this watch seems to be a nice option for me, but I've been having trouble finding out the width of the band, and a full list of the exerciseds. Does anyone know where I can find those information? Thanks.
Hi there, did you manage to figure out the Alexa/Amazon issue? As mine does the same. It'll be connected then an hour or so later I'll try it and it'll say to go back into the Amazon app
Thanks for the comprehensive review. Could you check if the Tides Forecast is finally working now? I had a GTR 3 Pro in the past and it failed all the time since it was impossible or the Watch to connect to the Xiaomi Weather Server. Hopefully this has been fixed in the GTR 4 ...
Bought this for partner's birthday, and returned it almost immediately as it was constantly disconnecting from her phone. Lots of people commenting about this on Reddit, but very limited (and ineffective) information from Zepp to solve this. So disappointing after such a great review!
Thanks for the great review. One problem I face with Amazefit watch GTR 2 is the GPS . Everytime I start cycling it takes few minutes to lock the GPS and without locking it it does not track the activity. Not sure how it is with GTR4
I tried the Amazfit GTR3 Pro and found it to be generally a decent smartwatch - however, I ended up returning it as, like all non Wear OS watches, the calendar app and notification management didn't sync with the phone at all - for me the two most useful "smart" aspects of the watch (as opposed to a fitness tracker) are being able to simultaneously delete notifications from the phone using the watch and being able to quickly see my calendar on the watch. So for me the Ticwatch Pro 3 Ultra is much better (although the vibration motor is too noisy to be discrete! - probably due to light plastic body rather than metal?). Does notification management and calendar access work better on the GTR4??
Great watch for swimming. Tried some of the most expensive out there including Garmin fenix six and polar vantage range and this watch was more accurate than they were in a 25 metre pool. Cheers for the review. Love your sarcasm across all your reviews.
Great review, you just left out one feature that galaxy watch 5 has, and does GTR4 have the accessibility feature for visually impaired, I'd really like to know.
The face judt came off my GTR 2e after about 30 months of use, a little under 2 and a half years. Should i go for this one to replace it i am wondering
the only thing the amazefit stuff is missing for me is an underwater depth sensor, could then be used like a scuba dive computer "if" there was app support for that for NDL stops and air/nitrox/trimix tables, impressive bits of kit otherwise.
great review. I have the GTR 3 Pro, and had the GTR 2. I've one big question though that I'm hoping someone can help with me. Does anyone know if that fall detection has actually been enabled and actually works. I want to but one for my elderly father (he currently has the GTR 2) but I've not seen any confirmation that the fall detection actually is available and/or works. I know it was on the initial advertising but saw something that it may not be enabled or will come via a later update. thanks in advance
I'm looking to replace my phone with a watch, full-time. I only need calls (Bluetooth headset compatible), messages, discord and a payment app on it. No GPS, heartrate or anything rlse. What would be the best choice? Do you have any suggestions?
Are you going to review the new infinix zero ultra when it launches? That phone reminds me of last year infinix concept phone, but with a higher 180W thunder charge
The one thing missing for all these non WearOS/Apple/Garmin watches is a music app such as Spotify/Deezer which lets you download playlists onto the watch to listen to when say out for a run with no phone - until they provide such its a showstopper for me as I never have my phone with me when I'm out running so rely on my watch for music.
While I have almost every Samsung watch made so far I saw this on amazon, and figured I see your review it. But when the proprietary app says "former" it screams don't buy me because I won't be supported after a while.
Do not buy any smartwatch if you are a iPhone user. I don't know why they don't provide this warning at first place. I bought Honor Watch GS Pro from ebay and I can't even return this watch. Huawei Health doesn't show watch faces.
Just got mine, and most readings inaccurate. Steps yesterday Amazfit 10033, Huawei & Samsung both 6550, temperature now Amazfit 35 degrees, Huawei and Samsung 26.
Thanks for watching my Amazfit GTR 4 review, hoping to get the GTS 4 on the go soon - and please do ignore any Telegram competition nonsense from spambots, that's not me! Cheers!
Why is the screen smaller than gtr3 pro??????????????
Holy smokes, 1 week battery life?! This is the one I've been waiting for! Is it compatible with iPhone???
I'd love your take on the GTS 4! TIA
Is this watch compatible with the iPhone 14 Pro Max?
Too funny

What do you mean
@@sarakarim8526 To summarize the video, the battery life is unbeatable, but every sensor on the watch is inaccurate and unreliable.

I can testify. Sensors are rubbish. On a exercise when Coros gives me 136HR this amazfit watch show 201HR 😂

The face judt came off my GTR 2e after about 30 months of use, a little under 2 and a half years.
Should i go for this one to replace it i am wondering
What's the name of the watch band? Can one get it in 20mm? Need something like this for my galaxy watch 4 classic.
What a great video! I love the colour you use in your ambient.
Nice video. My GTR 4 doesn't include Alexa. Do you know how can I enable it? Maybe I have a region related issue
the only thing the amazefit stuff is missing for me is an underwater depth sensor, could then be used like a scuba dive computer "if" there was app support for that for NDL stops and air/nitrox/trimix tables, impressive bits of kit otherwise.
That's what shearwater are for mate 😂
What s the point of the pixel watch??? This one is killing it ! I ve seen one on silver, looks great
Are the bigger name brand really Premium or are they just a bigger name brand? 🤔
Does it support Google pay? Might have missed that in the review I'm afraid. If yes, I may be tempted to part with my Huawei gt2 pro.
Unfortunately it uses its own OS, and therefore doesn't support any kind of pay
Do u recommend GTR 4 or GTR 3 pro or Galaxy watch 4?
great review. I have the GTR 3 Pro, and had the GTR 2. I've one big question though that I'm hoping someone can help with me. Does anyone know if that fall detection has actually been enabled and actually works. I want to but one for my elderly father (he currently has the GTR 2) but I've not seen any confirmation that the fall detection actually is available and/or works. I know it was on the initial advertising but saw something that it may not be enabled or will come via a later update. thanks in advance
I'm looking to replace my phone with a watch, full-time. I only need calls (Bluetooth headset compatible), messages, discord and a payment app on it. No GPS, heartrate or anything rlse. What would be the best choice? Do you have any suggestions?
Can Amazfit GTR 4 work with Google or Bixie on a Samsung Galaxy A90 5G smart phone because I don't use Alexa?
Forget Samsung. How about Amazfit GTR 4 compare to the Garmin Venu 2 Plus?
Are you going to review the new infinix zero ultra when it launches? That phone reminds me of last year infinix concept phone, but with a higher 180W thunder charge
Do you know of any difference between this and the limited edition GTR? Like a $100 difference.
Hi, nice review. Have you been able to activate Alexa in the meantime?
just need to update to latest version. No drop-in feature tho, in case it matters to you.
The one thing missing for all these non WearOS/Apple/Garmin watches is a music app such as Spotify/Deezer which lets you download playlists onto the watch to listen to when say out for a run with no phone - until they provide such its a showstopper for me as I never have my phone with me when I'm out running so rely on my watch for music.
I need the same. Pretty sure you can't connect BT headphones to these watches. A real bummer. I was ready to switch from my GW4.
Have you seen the reviews of the Spotify watch app? Probably better off having one of these and loading it up with mp3's.
@@kbagrows Yes you can connect BT headphones to these.
@@FoxArcher Oh man! Thanks for letting me know, thought that did not work for some reason. Thanks!
Amazfits own BT ear buds work best
While I have almost every Samsung watch made so far I saw this on amazon, and figured I see your review it. But when the proprietary app says "former" it screams don't buy me because I won't be supported after a while.
Does this only connect /work with Alexa? I don't want yet another closed environment.
this watch or galaxy watch 6 47mm which one should I buy?
Do not buy any smartwatch if you are a iPhone user. I don't know why they don't provide this warning at first place. I bought Honor Watch GS Pro from ebay and I can't even return this watch. Huawei Health doesn't show watch faces.
Dude honor gs doesn't work with huawei app this watch have its own honor app that's your fault
Just got mine, and most readings inaccurate. Steps yesterday Amazfit 10033, Huawei & Samsung both 6550, temperature now Amazfit 35 degrees, Huawei and Samsung 26.
Can you schedule sleep mode for a certain time frame?
What frame rate did you shoot at to avoid flicker?
Does it have NFC? I'm sorry if I missed it.
I want buy Xiaomi S1 Active but whats your suggestion? is GTR4 BETTER than S1 Active? is it worth?
It's good in my opinion I chose it over GW 4
Can we store photos on this watch like we can on Apple and Samsung watches?
Great review Chris, may justupgrade my Garmin with this baby especially with that great battery life.
does the seditary & water reminders need the app or can I just use the watch? please help
Im in a dilemma of buying huawei gt3 or amazfit gtr4, anyone mind sharing opinion?
Does have wireless charge? Does have NFC PAYMENT?
Did you find out what the Alexa issue was? That would be one of the main reasons for me to upgrade from my original GTR
just upgrade to latest firmware/app. I was disappointed tho, cause you can not use the drop-in feature on it.... all the other stuff works nicely.
