While I agree that software and map experience can be improved, especially maps detail, POI, saved location handling, etc., I do not agree it is that bad.

Amazfit has in fact promised us to do better and bring the features including on-device routing to the T-Rex 3. I made a post on that and Bryce was unambiguos about it (Link), thus I'm positive that they'll deliver and if that takes time so be it. No matter whether it's resources or wanting to sell
