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).

If BioCharge and advanced navigation from the Pro version don’t come to the regular T-Rex 3 via updates, I’ll sell mine without hesitation and never touch Amazfit again. A flagship product abandoned just a year after release, limited on purpose by software. Next year T-Rex 4 will come out with new f

Probably the most unneccesary release I've seen from Amazfit, alognside the T-Rex Ultra 2. They haven't been able to keep up with the Helio Strap demand, still unable to sell a single replacement band for the Helio Strap, the calories algorithm is still super high, sports like swimming are still lac

What is Reality? Is there an objective Reality when it comes to pricing? It looks like you get angry just because Amazfit launches more expensive models and you are afraid that you won't be able to buy their products in the future. If you think that Amazfit's price policy gives you much lower value

Yes, Amazfit really disappointed with feature support to standard T Rex 3. They even said that it will receive all features of T Rex 3 Pro but they changed their mind later, or never had that intention and just lied to delay letting down users of standard T Rex 3.

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. I am using Garmin Fenix 7 also, and experience with Amazift T-rex 3 is much better, more fluid, customizable, easier to transfer GPX path and nav

You forgot to mention bugs and inconsistencies in algorithm, even crashes when using navigation/routing features. Also, display is fingerprint magnet that makes it less readable in some scenarios. It is good watch but far from final and stable product that competes with big league watches, which mak

Actually, this article does a good job of pointing out many of the same concerns users have mentioned here. Amazfit really nails the hardware, but the software still needs work to deliver a smoother overall experience. That said, I don’t have the T-Rex 3 Pro — I use the Balance 2, Active 2, and Heli

The existence of the Ultra line doesn’t make sense to me. Amazfit watches are good because of their strong price-to-features ratio, you can overlook the drawbacks since they are cheaper than competitors. But "premium" models with the current level of software and especially the length of support are

T rex 3 pro can be purchased for about £350 which is good value....the latest amazfit ultra however is too expensive. I wouldn't even say it offers anything much extra.
