for $200 its' absolutely worth a punt. I really wish someone would wear both this and fitbit in the gym. From what i've heard their fitness tracking has improved a lot,
Now this is a good option for a smartwatch: at least a week of battery life, very good fitness tracking, speaker and independent headphones support and WiFi connectivity for fast music transfer (how big is the on board storage for music?) and some ability to reply messages, very good stuff. If it had nfc for payments it would be instant buy for me. Great to see the different battery life expectations for different use scenarios. Next time please show the different AOD available
What you say is very true, Ivo! The available storage is 4GB as far as I remember, so it can host a lot of music files. Let me think how I can add more AOD information :-) As for NFC... I think Xiaomi have shown with Mi Fitness how difficult such implementation actually is. Since these watches cannot pass Google's safetynet, they will have to rely on their own payment systems, so maybe it is right now too challenging to create a new one.
I honestly don't like having NFC capabilities on watches. You constantly have to unlock your screen to use your watch. I'd rather just whip out my phone for payments.
I have this watch and strongly recommend it. Great speaker and easy to take calls and it works perfectly. Caller does not even know I'm talking to my watch. Can receive and send texts. Great size and its light. Very comfortable. Great health apps. And it really does get 2 week battery life. IMO, this is far better then the apple/samsung/pixel crap and it does not lose features if you don't use their own branded phones. I know its rated really good on many sites but I have to agree with those reviews. Just buy this.
Still using the original GTS and works quite well. Don't need a complicated device, unless it could completely replace my smartphone. So these features are much more than what I need.
Watching this video with the first generation GTS on my wrist . A great and simple smartwatch , but now i am thinking to buy the GTR 4 . The GTS is the only smartwatch i had and i have , so an upgrade would be great :) .
@@liviudodo exactly the same thoughts here. I'm on the fence, still, because my original GTS still works. Plus, I'm really into the squared shape (and higher screen area), but I'd like the GTR4 battery life.
I am using the GTR 3 Pro for some months now and honestly, aside from the funky new design I see no significant upgrade in GTR 4. The technological leap between my previous GTR 1 and 3 Pro was massive in pretty much every aspect (aside from battery life, ofcourse). If it's your first GTR watch it's totally worth it, but if you are already using the 3 Pro and want to upgrade - eeeh....
I have an original GTR now and am on the fence about the 3 Pro or this.. What's the best battery life you've managed from the 3 Pro? I do really like that with the GTR I can generally go a week or more without charging. Another thing I can't find info on is can you pause/resume workouts via a button? For some reason the GTR let's me pause with a button, but I need to use the touchscreen to resume which is really annoying if I have gloves on. Thanks!
One Big question I have is, can you se the time without having to connect to the smartphone/app? I'm tired of having to use the smartphone app to be able to set the hour, it's a watch, we should be able to set it from itself without any external device...
BEWARE: Amazfit may have been upgrading the sensors from generation to generation but one thing they have NOT upgraded was their HR algorithm. Now in the fourth generation, the watch is still suffering from a major flaw in that if fails to pick up the pulse in sudden and rapid spikes of the HR, in activities such as cycling, interval training, swimming and a few others. I may be climbing an uphill on my cycle and be getting an HR of as low as 56bpm (?). Amazfit is well aware of this problem but they have NOT bothered to adjust their algorithms as yet. The new Falcon as well as the T-REX 2 both suffer from the same flaw. It is possible that the flaw may have been passed on to other models of the Amazfit lineup as well.
@@TechMishka I would think that a man of your own claimed expertise would have his own sources. For a start, a reviewer who would bother to have an in-depth look at a watch before he reviewed it, he would know that Xiaomi watches too suffer from the same flawed HR algorithm. This is merely one fact in a list of some more. Reviewing a product is not all about being cute on the camera.
does the watch calendar app actually sync properly with Google calendar app on a phone and does deleting a notification on the watch delete it from your phone? For me they were the two main failings from the GTR 3 pro which is why I sent it back and opted for the TicWatch Pro 3 Ultra
Hey Richard, good question: Yes, sync with the calendar is excellent. As for deleted notifications - no - they stay until you manually remove them. The Ticwatch pro 3 Ultra is an amazing smartwatch too, and looks like you value the smart features a lot more - therefore seems to be the right choice for you.
I need help please . Can this watch measure heart rate 24 hours or always it need my finger touch first ? I wonder about heart rate tracking system or manual ? I couldn't decide Tichwatch ultra pro 3 or amazfit gtr 4 ? Which is better ?
Great review, the heath rate accuracy has improve greatly and in addition you can add external devices Ike chest band etc. My only downfall it that it occasionally does NOT measure the stress level. It give a lot of inside information when you exercise that is lacking even from Apple or Samsung.
Does GT3 track steps correctly for you? My GT3 tends to add a lot of steps that shouldn't be there, like 30% more. The same for my dad's Huawei Band 8. It's really weird and no one talks about it so what's going on here?
@@TechMishka that's super weird then. I don't even know what's causing it, since it's the same on two separate devices. If that'd be the firmware's fault, then a lot of people would report it.
Great reviews. I'm currently split between the t rex 2 and gtr 4. Both are similarly prices where i love. I'm slightly leaving towards the t rex coz of the looks. What would you recommend?
I was looking for reviews on amazfit and bumped into your channel, you Mr Michael got a new subscriber Thorough videos. This model got 6 satellite system or just 5 on the box says 5???
It depends on what you call "unreliable". They are fine in most cases. Not as good as chest mount HR tracker. Also, most.of these reviews are done right after the release. Updates improve performance a lot
Nice review 👍 How does the Always on screen work in sunlight? I own the first gen. GTR (witch I really like..) but the Always on screen is impossible to see in sunlight, and I hate it... Has this improved i gen. 4?
Thanks Carsten! I feel like this perception depends on the user and the level of brightness. it is definitely brighter than G1, but it is not as bright as the maximum screen brightness mode.
Yes it does. it will sync recent sport activity with your phone when u get in bluetooth range. However without phone it wont be online as you may already know
I ain't buying it until I get a keyboard to reply to the notifications. NFC at this price is also suggested tbh. And last - the speaker output is below average compared to the competition.
Thanks for the comment, Pradeep! I don't see a virtual keyboard coming to this one at all... And interesting statement about the speaker output - I think this one is really good 🤨🤔
Wow, you are absolutely great about noticing what I wear! yes! There will be a comparison of Amazfit Band 7 to Mik Band 7, and a dedicated review to the Fitbit Inspire 3.
I would like to share my experience with the Amazfit GTR 3. I purchased the Amazfit GTR 3 Pro in January 2022. I liked the design of the watch and the battery life. In July 2023, I sent it in for a warranty claim, because the touchscreen stopped working and the watch could not be operated. The claim was accepted, the fault was unrepairable and was resolved by replacing it with a new piece. Unfortunately in August 2024 even with this new watch there was a defect, the watch would always switch to the switch off/restart screen and then switch off. Now the watch cannot be used. The first watch lasted functional for 18 months. The second one only worked for 13 months and this one, even though it was new, could no longer be claimed. Amazfit's statement on the repair of the Amazfit GTR 3 watch was that due to the waterproof design and design of the watch, it could not be repaired or would not be cost effective. At least I gained experience, next time just don't accept the replacement but straight out withdraw from the contract and buy it again, at least one gets the warranty again, which may not be a bad thing with this watch. I was satisfied with the watch, but I admit that it could have worked longer.
Hi, great review. What do you mean with no wireless charging? GTR 3 didn't have wireless charging either or am I mistaken? Gtr4 /3 needs to be "locked on" to magnetic charger, right?
The T-Rex 2 feels bigger and is rugged. I believe access to menus is a little easier on GT4, and also - the ability to take phone calls is an important advantage.
I currently have a first gen Samsung Galaxy watch, would say this would be a decent upgrade from that?? I looked at the garmins, but i dont do enough exercise to justify all the fitness things it does. I want a more 'smart' watch, but heard the new samsungs have pretty terrible battery life, unless you go for the 6, which i cant really afford. Thanks. :)
@TechMishka thanks, think it may be the amazfit gtr4 limited addition or huawei gt3 pro The other issue i have, is i currently have a Samsung phone, but i may not stick with samsung next upgrade, and heard the Samsung watches are now locking down alot of their features etc
I have a sort of a unique question, if anyone can clarify - So, I have a smartwatch like Venu 3 for example - I pair it to my personal phone (Android) and install their app, and just use the watch normal, let it track whatever. But while at work, I'd like to connect it to my work phone (iOS) to take calls or see notifications. When it's connected to my work phone, will the health tracking start all over again or will it continue as it is?
@@TechMishkathanks but how ? cause I been trying to figure this out & I can't find anything also the vibrations are so light its mostly useless is there a way to make the vibration stronger? please help
Just tow questions dose it support youtube like Samsung watch and how accurate it is compare to german watches in term of gps namely running thanks in advance
@@TechMishka Thanks for the reply. It's a shame these devices are made disposable. A watch might still work fine after 3-4 years but maybe half the battery life it used to have when new.
@@TechMishka i want to switch to android for abit so amazfot watches are the best android smartwatch in my opinion. Could you tell me which watch face it is?
Hello, Can you exit to the main menu while in the workout mode ? I usually use the timer between sets so this feature would be a deal braker for me...Thanks!
I am still wearing the original amazfit pace !!!!!!!!!! Must be 5 years old now. Still works great and almost a week battery life. Thinking of an upgrade though. I do like the way amazfit kit works. For the price the GTR 4 looks like my choice. Great reviews by the way.
Oh, very important point! It will be possible. With the current version of the firmware I can't do it, but the update enabling the feature should arrive any moment.
@@TechMishka Sorry, another question. If the update arrives, will the watch be able to connect to any hr strap and cadence meter, or will it only be able to connect to hr straps and cadence meters via bluetooth
Имам няколко въпроса. - Колко е лимитиран от към функции като го вържеш към iPhone? - Може ли да се плаща с VISA/Mastercard ? - Може ли да ти мери с "точност" температурата?
Почти всички функции са си налични когато работи с iPhone. Няма опция за безконтактни разплащания. Не бих се доверил на термометър на китката - там телесната температура е твърде непостоянна.
I have some questions regarding GTR4. Currently I own Huawei GT2, for 1y and a half now. And I miss some things like calendar or agenda app, alexa/google assistant, replies, etc... Also, emoji support is non existent in the watch. So questions: 1. Is there agenda/calendar app that can sync from google calendar and exchange/outlook. 2. i can see that some emojis in the notifications are not support. From your experience, what is aproximate percentage of the emojis supported? 3. How is the support for app icons? Example, if I get a notification from whatsapp/viber, is there going to be some generic icon or whatsapp/viber icon indicating there is a message? 4. In your opinion, is it worthy to upgrade from Huawei GT2? I can find GTR4 for about 180e. Or maybe wait for Ticwatch 4 Pro, GTR4 Pro or something similar? Thanks! Keep up the great work! Greetings from Serbia!
1. Yes. 2. Around half of them 3. Not great 4. Not really. Sounds like you'll enjoy having a WearOS smartwatch. However - the battery life will be much different to what GT2 Pro provides. For the record - I believe the GT2 Pro is one of the best looking smart watches ever designed.
@@TechMishka Thanks for reply! Yeah, I had OG Ticwatch E with wear os previously, it is great... But once I got GT2, I cant go back because of battery life. It is just game changing. Thanks once again!
I also have a GT2, bit mine after 2 years appeared that inside bubbles on the screen. Now, after 3 years, the touchscreen doesn't work properly anymore. So I was thinking about buying the GTR 4, because of the battery life similar to the Huawei's. My doubt is only the sensors and GPS, for what I searched, the Huawei's usually better than the Amazfit's. Did you end up buying the GTR4?
Hi. I think Your reviews are really good. There's just one thing i would like to ask - if You could also look at hw good or bad GPS is in all those watches, and if there's possibility to connect them to external sensors. I'm particulary interested if GTR4 or T-rex 2 van connect to external speed / Cadence / power sensors. I've read that after update there's possibility to connect them to HR sensors, and that changes a lot...
Hey Michal, thanks for the comment. So far I managed to connect only to a HR sensor. Not sure if the software and the smartphone app can well interpret data from other sources.
Thanks 4d review. Question: Can you use other apps beside Zepp for this? Can you remove some fitness trackers like swimming and yoga? Tech4all is 1 of my new favorite channels. More power.
Hey Temiong, thanks for the kind comment! You should be able to use Notify and fitness for Amazfit, but I haven't tried it myself yet. And sure - you can arrange the workouts the way you like and only list those that you are interested in.
@@TechMishka Oh okay cool, I didn't know it has similar features like t rex has, anyways keep making amazing videos dude, always love watching your videos.
New supporter of your channel, great content and style :) btw I just ordered the Mi watch s1, convinced also by your review to try it, but I may return it to Amazon without even open the box since this looks much better and more functional. What do you think about this comparison? Which is best? Also does this support NFC payments? Thank you again, very positive attitude you transmit
I believe the Amazfit device feels better, however the Xiaomi watch supports NFC, therefore contactless payments. So if this is a priority to you - better keep the purchase! 😎 P.S. Thank you so much for the kind words!
Galaxy 5 is a full fledged smart watch. GTR 4 is a smartwatch lite/Hybrid smart watch. I have the galaxy watch 5, and i find it useless for its battery life. Stopped using it only a few weeks after i got it. Got the GTR 4 a couple of weeks back for its fitness features, super long battery life (comparatively), and its great so far.

Does the watch show full text of the notifications or cut them off once reached a fixed number of letters?

In your opinion, better GTR 4 or Huawei Watch gt 3?
I have the first version and i think that it's time to upgrade. I'm very happy with this watches.
The GTR 1 is indeed a fantastic device. I believe you will like the progress done with this one.
is the black crown plastic? also, does it offes any kind of certification about the screen (e.g. gorilla glass)?
I think it is a metal one. As for the screen - not officially Gorilla. They claim it is a tempered glass.

Hows it with iphone?
Works fine, app feels stable.
If you comparing it to amazfit trex 2, which benefit is for casual use and light exercise kind of people?
The T-Rex 2 feels bigger and is rugged. I believe access to menus is a little easier on GT4, and also - the ability to take phone calls is an important advantage.
Huawei GT3 Pro or this one or any other watch, which is your pick?

Accuracy is good, the GPS performance on GTR4 is superb.
Can the battery replaced (even in service) after 2-3 years or the watch goes to trash when battery cannot hold charge anymore?
I don't think you can replace the battery.
For the record - I have Amazfit Stratos from 2017, which still works.
@@TechMishka Thanks for the reply. It's a shame these devices are made disposable. A watch might still work fine after 3-4 years but maybe half the battery life it used to have when new.
Hi, is it possible to download HIKING maps like Locusmaps etc. to the watch? Thats the main and key feature i use on my galaxy watch
Hi, please can you tell me whether the Amazfit GTR 4 has running interval workout setup option as available in the Garmin Forerunner 245?
Yes, you can measure intervals.
do the watch faces feature a red notification dot for notifications you have received but haven't viewed? same way the Apple Watch does it?
Yes, you have a dot at the top.
@@TechMishka i want to switch to android for abit so amazfot watches are the best android smartwatch in my opinion. Could you tell me which watch face it is?
Great review. thank you. As a result of this, I just bought the GTR 4.
OMG!!! I really hope you will like the watch a lot.
I am struggling between Xiaomi S1 pro and GTR 4, which one do you recommend?
I'd go for GTR4 if NFC and payments are not important to you.
Spend a little more and get the GTR 4. Its worth the upgrade.
Hello,
Can you exit to the main menu while in the workout mode ?
I usually use the timer between sets so this feature would be a deal braker for me...Thanks!
Hey Filip - currently - not.
Hi there, Thank you for the great video. Would this watch connect with my polar h10 heart rate monitor?
I think so. I have one at home, so - would you please send me an email reminder, so that I try next week. (contact@tech4all.net)
I enjoyed watching this review. Thank you!
I'm so glad!☺️☺️
I am still wearing the original amazfit pace !!!!!!!!!! Must be 5 years old now. Still works great and almost a week battery life. Thinking of an upgrade though. I do like the way amazfit kit works. For the price the GTR 4 looks like my choice. Great reviews by the way.
Hey Andy, great to hear the Pace works good. I still keep the Stratos. Amazing times!
Is this watch capable to show elevation continuously?
Not really each and every second , but it can
Can u connect a hr strap to the watch, like on the Huawei gt3 ???
LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!!!🤩🤩🤩🤩
Oh, very important point! It will be possible. With the current version of the firmware I can't do it, but the update enabling the feature should arrive any moment.
@@TechMishka Thank you so much!!!
So it will be possible .
@@TechMishka Sorry, another question.
If the update arrives, will the watch be able to connect to any hr strap and cadence meter, or will it only be able to connect to hr straps and cadence meters via bluetooth
Does it support contactless payment?
It doesn't.
Does it still have the mode where you compete against yourself ?
I think so.
Great video. Love the shirt❤
Thanks Damien for the kind comment!
Is it possible to make payments with it? GTR4 or Amazfit S1? Nice review, thank you.
Only Xiaomi Watch S1 can offer contactless payments. No NFC with GTR 4
If it's connected to iOS, can it receives a Whatsapp Call and Facebook Messenger Call like Huawei Watch Fit 2?
Nope - whatsapp calls are not supported.
Really great review, i was wondering if it comes or has an Free diving mode or app
Имам няколко въпроса.
- Колко е лимитиран от към функции като го вържеш към iPhone?
- Може ли да се плаща с VISA/Mastercard ?
- Може ли да ти мери с "точност" температурата?
Почти всички функции са си налични когато работи с iPhone.
Няма опция за безконтактни разплащания.
Не бих се доверил на термометър на китката - там телесната температура е твърде непостоянна.
I have some questions regarding GTR4.
Currently I own Huawei GT2, for 1y and a half now. And I miss some things like calendar or agenda app, alexa/google assistant, replies, etc... Also, emoji support is non existent in the watch.
So questions:
1. Is there agenda/calendar app that can sync from google calendar and exchange/outlook.
2. i can see that some emojis in the notifications are not support. From your experience, what is aproximate percentage of the emojis supported?
3. How is the support for app icons? Example, if I get a notification from whatsapp/viber, is there going to be some generic icon or whatsapp/viber icon indicating there is a message?
4. In your opinion, is it worthy to upgrade from Huawei GT2? I can find GTR4 for about 180e. Or maybe wait for Ticwatch 4 Pro, GTR4 Pro or something similar?
Thanks! Keep up the great work! Greetings from Serbia!
1. Yes.
2. Around half of them
3. Not great
4. Not really. Sounds like you'll enjoy having a WearOS smartwatch. However - the battery life will be much different to what GT2 Pro provides.
For the record - I believe the GT2 Pro is one of the best looking smart watches ever designed.
@@TechMishka Thanks for reply! Yeah, I had OG Ticwatch E with wear os previously, it is great... But once I got GT2, I cant go back because of battery life. It is just game changing. Thanks once again!
I also have a GT2, bit mine after 2 years appeared that inside bubbles on the screen. Now, after 3 years, the touchscreen doesn't work properly anymore. So I was thinking about buying the GTR 4, because of the battery life similar to the Huawei's. My doubt is only the sensors and GPS, for what I searched, the Huawei's usually better than the Amazfit's. Did you end up buying the GTR4?
Could you tell if watch shows Whatsapp incoming call on iphone?
Yup
How about muting incoming phone calls on iphone?
Great review as always.
Thanks again!
Thank you for this great review. Does GTR4 support quick answers for such apps as viber, telegram and so on?
Yes, well supported.
@@TechMishka Thanks, that's great:)
Loving the watchface at around 8:54 of the video. Blue with black diagonal lines. Has all the info I'm looking for. Where can I find it?
It is one of the default watch faces, cannot recall the exact name though.
@@TechMishka Not seeing it as one of the defaults of the GTR 4 I purchased yesterday, but I'll keep looking. I appreciate the reply.
Is there NFC on this model?
The Amazfit Balance is similar and has NFC
Thanks for the review, it's extremely helpful. I just migrate from my old se to gtr mini. Glad I picked amazfit
Great to see that you enjoy your new device
I really like this watch but I have a small wrist and there is no amazfit store to try it out ... does it feel so big for a small wrist?
My wrist is not that big and I think it looks good. If you have Amazon around - you can use their return service in case you feel it is too big.
Hi. I think Your reviews are really good. There's just one thing i would like to ask - if You could also look at hw good or bad GPS is in all those watches, and if there's possibility to connect them to external sensors. I'm particulary interested if GTR4 or T-rex 2 van connect to external speed / Cadence / power sensors. I've read that after update there's possibility to connect them to HR sensors, and that changes a lot...
Hey Michal, thanks for the comment. So far I managed to connect only to a HR sensor. Not sure if the software and the smartphone app can well interpret data from other sources.
Thanks 4d review. Question: Can you use other apps beside Zepp for this? Can you remove some fitness trackers like swimming and yoga? Tech4all is 1 of my new favorite channels. More power.
Hey Temiong, thanks for the kind comment!
You should be able to use Notify and fitness for Amazfit, but I haven't tried it myself yet.
And sure - you can arrange the workouts the way you like and only list those that you are interested in.
Can you be able to change font size?
Not that I know how...
Amazing Review & I Love The Shirt Dude!😎💯
👍❤️
Does it support wireless charging?
It does not.
Me choosing smartwatch:
1. Design
2. Watchface and AOD
3. Battery Life
Sounds like you will be fine with WearOS too :)
Does gtr4 have a triathlon specific sport mode?
Anyone knows?
Is it possible to charge the amazfit with my wireless phone charger?
No. Wireless charging is not supported.
Amazing review mate, have you got hands on falcon version yet?
Hey, thanks for the comment.
Likely I won't review it because of the similarities to T-Rex 2.
@@TechMishka Oh okay cool, I didn't know it has similar features like t rex has, anyways keep making amazing videos dude, always love watching your videos.
New supporter of your channel, great content and style :) btw I just ordered the Mi watch s1, convinced also by your review to try it, but I may return it to Amazon without even open the box since this looks much better and more functional. What do you think about this comparison? Which is best? Also does this support NFC payments? Thank you again, very positive attitude you transmit
I believe the Amazfit device feels better, however the Xiaomi watch supports NFC, therefore contactless payments. So if this is a priority to you - better keep the purchase! 😎
P.S. Thank you so much for the kind words!
U do well. Xiaomi s1 isna shit😢
How many pre installed messages watch can have?
I've seen up to 10, perhaps more are possible.
Dose it support ECG?
no
Amazing review and video Mihail ! This may be my first smart watch. Waiting for some kind of sale or offer to buy. Lets see..
I very much hope you will find a great deal. Amazfit have good discounts around Black Friday and Christmas
should I get this or the galaxy watch 5, I use a Samsung phone
They are different. Galaxy watch 5 is much smarter, running WearOS. This one is great about battery life and health tracking.
@@TechMishka I just want the watch to get notifications, check time, and some other basic stuff like that, what would be the better pick?
Galaxy 5 is a full fledged smart watch. GTR 4 is a smartwatch lite/Hybrid smart watch. I have the galaxy watch 5, and i find it useless for its battery life. Stopped using it only a few weeks after i got it.
Got the GTR 4 a couple of weeks back for its fitness features, super long battery life (comparatively), and its great so far.
