Amazfit has become a great choice for anyone looking for a cheap fitness tracker or a cheaper rival to one of the best garmin watchesbut his next outing could be his most ambitious yet.
The company unveiled the T-Rex 3, which it calls the “ultimate outdoor GPS smartwatch,” at the IFA event in Berlin, following leaks late last month.
The latest addition to the Amazfit Adventure lineup features a 25-day battery life with 100 hours of continuous support in GPS mode. It also features a 1.5-inch AMOLED display made of Corning Gorilla Glass and a brightness of 2,000 nits that certainly makes it competitive with other options.
The watch will feature over 170 sports modes covering everything from fishing to skydiving, and will again pair with the Zepp app on iOS or Android. It will also work seamlessly with the Amazfit Helio Smart Ring.
The watch will retail for a suggested retail price of $299 (around £230 / AU$440), making it a more premium option in the Amazfit portfolio, but still a far cry from the near-four-figure price tag of other adventure watches like the Garmin Fenix 8.
The Amazfit T-Rex 3 will be available in Black, Cangshan Green, and Rock Red colorways.
Will Amazfit venture into premium territory?
“The T-Rex 3 exemplifies Amazfit’s commitment to advancing wearable technology for active and adventurous people,” said Wayne Huang, CEO of Zepp Health, via press release.
“Its rugged design, extensive features and unmatched battery life make the T-Rex 3 the perfect model for those who lead an active lifestyle and are always ready for their next adventure.”
We have already taken a look at the Amazfit T-Rex 2 In late 2022, we praised its durable design and battery life, but there were a few accuracy issues here and there. While we were less impressed with the Zepp app, it saw big improvements throughout 2023 and 2024.
