Amazfit hardware is fantastic. For reference, in the last couple of years I’ve owned and trained with the following (I’m not rich or crazy, but I got really used to having a bunch of devices during grad school when my research called for it).

I have used the T-Rex 3 Pro for about two weeks now, in conjunction with my Helio Strap that I've been wearing for about 4 weeks. And I'd call myself very satisfied so far. I have to mention that these are my first fitness wearables, so I cannot really compare. As a tech savvy and relatively sporty

I used to think exactly the same: I just need a watch. Something that tells the time, maybe counts a few steps, maybe syncs with my phone if it’s feeling generous. That was the whole plan. A simple man, simple needs. Then, somehow, it turned out the watch should also be waterproof. Then it should tr

My T-rex 3 pro is much more accurate in sleep tracking than Garmin Fenix 7. Inaccurate sleep tracking in Garmin makes its body battery and recovery metrics inaccurate as well. Amazfit imrpvoed significantly its sleep tracking by software updates, it is now much better than before. That said, I do no

What do you mean "euro increase"? The watch costs 400 eur total. ESim - I am glad T-rex 3 pro does not have, it would just increase price and many people so not need it, including me. HR on my T rex 3 works great, even more accurately than on Fenix 7. T rex 3 pro should be the same. Moreover, Garmin

My fitness journey has one person to blame: my girlfriend Tereeee 😍. She convinced me to sign up for my first 5k and it was rough, I finished swearing I'd never do it again. Spoiler: I lied. From that point on I got hooked on running, using Runna to track my training, and started mixing it with the

If you don't want a fitbit or a pixel watch, look into amazfit, maybe a bip 6 if you like the square look or an active 2 or 3. I have now a T-rex 3 pro and the calorie burns on it are roughly the same as my old pixel watch 2. The app has a good built in food tracker, much better than fitbit

Was just in the same boat, switch from a FR255s to T Rex 3 Pro 4mm. Was pretty smooth until I noticed HR issues yesterday, it does seem like it might be my smaller wrist 16.5cm being too small for steady readings with the 44mm model? Just did up a post, looking for answers. https://www.reddit.com/r/

Okay, I'll chime in. Here's a guide about how it works: https://www.reddit.com/r/amazfit/comments/1q2i8ja/guide_how_to_pair_your_helio_strap_with_your_watch/ Hopefully you will find the answer you seek from there. But as a user of both devices it is useful. However, it's usage is better with the Balance 2,
