Brilliant video! I have a Garmin 965, but this watch looks great and can be used as a smartwatch too. Garmin is very limited regarding smartwatch features. Thank you!
@@DaveDoesFitness thanks! It was your fault that I picked it up! I will link to your video in the description. Have you been following the hype on the Amazfit Active 2? That thing might own the budget smartwatch universe if it isn't too goofy.
Thanks for an informative video on the Amazfit TRex 3.. I have seen several negative comments for Android users surrounding the Zepp app. I have an Android, what are your thoughts and/recommendations. Thank you... Fred
I’ve been trying this watch out for the past week. After being an Apple Watch user for years I’m enjoying the T-Rex 3 for the most part. There’s a few things that I wish worked better on Apple iOS but for the most part I think it’s a keeper.
I bought one a few months ago and found the screen to be excellent but the ability to display accurate statistics was ridiculously bad. It routinely added 20% to the expected values based on prior watches and Google Fit. The battery life was okay, 10 days, but it show that I sleep for 3 hours a night when in fact I sleep for 7 plus. So, sad to say not fit for primetime especially because during a snowstorm I did not leave the house it said I had walked nearly 3 miles! Really?
Man, I saw some quirks, but nothing like you saw. I think running was on par with Garmin, weight lifting was better. Sleep tracking was worthless. Step count seemed ok for me.
Have had the Trex2 for a year with zero issues. Plus they've added a lot to it over the year. I just wish they would make a smaller sized option for the TRex line. The 47mm just looks huge on my small wrist. A 42mm would be a good second available option.
Seems like a great watch. Only thing I don’t like about Amazfit is their sw update intervals (or lack of them). I had Cheetah Pro and watch stayed pretty much on the sw version it came from the store. Sure, it got few minor updates, but OS version stayed the same with no plans on upgrading (confirmed from Amazfit via email). After that I went back to Garmin. Rocking Instinct 2 Solar and love it so far.
@@DexterHR Garmin is excellent, no doubt. I still like my Fenix better, but if Amazfit keeps up their progress, the next rev may be better than Garmin.
In my experience i used a Garmin F8 and i feel its completely over priced and over rated. I used a Galaxy watch ultra it is great but battery sucks. Ordered the T Rex3 after seeing reviews so lets see
Hope you like it, I was using mine last night. They updated the software again, so the HR tracking is better. It is quirky but I can forgive the quirks at this price with this battery life.
No se si es por la falta de pelo, pero no hah que ir a un suizo para tener un alta gama,, el GT 5 Pro con caja y malla de titanio, y cristal de zafiro, ya tenes el mejor smartwatch gama alta del mercado. 😎🏆☠️
I want to dislike this device but it feels great on the wrist. Apple Watch is better in almost every way excluding battery but it costs so much more. I do not feel the need to pay for the high end Garmin for my needs, I feel this one will work for many people who want a heavy duty watch with a big and bright screen. I wish it was easier to load the MP3 files.
@manikdesilva1 oh, it still has drawbacks, but for 250 bucks I don't think you can do better. I would probably have a Samsung watch if the battery life wasn't absolute trash.
I have the T-Rex 2 and got the T-Rex 3 for Christmas. I love the watches but Amazfit is really missing the boat on call functionality. At least I can actually respond to texts now, but it's "reply only". Fix those issues and it would be unbeatable in my opinion.

Owning form 2024 oct. Completely satisfied with it. HR, GPS accuracy, altitude measurement (and GPS pickup) are quite good. All other are extras
Using it from the last 2 Months !!!

@@MarceloBacchi thank you!
Thank you for your input. The T Rex 3 is the most cost effective smartwatch/sportwatch in the market right now.
Great in-depth review 💪

Seems pretty impressive, particularly for the price point.

Apple watch has a lot of good, but the battery life is crap. I just wish Samsung, Google, and Apple cared about that. I really like the Trex 3.

Good vid J! Have a great New Years🎉🎉🎉
@Overlandingtruckie thanks! Happy New Year to you too!

la traduzione italiana è veramente uno spasso hahahahhaa

@stevendragulski7440 the new Active 2 might be perfect for you then, and the price on it is awesome!

It won't be because of the screen
My T Rex 3 is paired with an iPhone. Text response limited to AI voice. Will Zepp update to allow manual responses?
@jake1up probably not, Apple is notorious for not letting people in to their programming interfaces.
@ Thanks brother. Appreciate the great vids!
@jake1up thank you!
Do you think the GPS accuracy is good?
I do. I compared it to a Garmin Fenix 7x and the tracks were almost identical. The GPS on Amazfit surprised me with how good it is.
I return it because i had 0 accesories for him in octomber and the strap adaptors in the box was lame quality

@graydogllc yea i am waiting on mine
Thanks for the video. We want Spotify and lte for the next model😉
@YppenplatzBasketballAssociatio You're welcome, and 100% agree!

That still won't turn heads or occasion comment. Nobody cares about smartwatches. When I wear my Breitling, people notice.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🔝
Amazfit lol only a Chinese outfit would have that ridiculous name.
No bias detected in your user name!
Hello 👋 Amazfit T-Rex-3 My Dream Watch Gift 🎁 Please 🙏🙏🙏
Nie wieder Garmin.
Kein Netzteil.

@ thanks for your reply. What are your thoughts about the music capabilities? Have you been successful in loading music into it?
@manikdesilva1 I haven't tried. I only use my watch to start or stop Spotify. People say you can load mp3 into it, but that seems so archaic?
Compared whit t rex 1 / 2 / ultra this has a s*** plastic quality

I am assuming that the next model will have those features. They are coming along nicely.
