Your videos are just amazing.
Very informative and straight to the points we wanna see.
Congrats from Brazil.
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,
Yeah, Amazfit are quite good about fitness tracking already.
Michael I love you reviews and friendly attitude. Much love from South Africa
Hey Jay Jay, warmest regards to South Africa!!! Kind of jealous about your summer time just about to kick in soon 😎😎
Really great review, i was wondering if it comes or has an Free diving mode or app
Thanks for the review! Purchased GTR 4 based on it, and I'm so satisfied
Great to hear!
Nice review.Is it possible to record audio on GTR 4?
I enjoyed watching this review. Thank you!
I'm so glad!☺️☺️
Sir, how is the accuracy of distance measurements (GPS)?
Great video!
Nfc has this smartwatch?
Does the watch show full text of the notifications or cut them off once reached a fixed number of letters?
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
Amazing Review & I Love The Shirt Dude!😎💯
👍❤️
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
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.
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.
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.
U r the best .. i love your style when u show us watches ❤️
Thank you so much for the klind words, Wael! 👍❤️
I have a GTS 2e. Notifications are not good since it previews so little.
Can you read the whole Notification on this watch?
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.
Hey Ismael, good summary! Agreed - amount of details is remarkable.
Haven't noticed this part around the stress levels, will keep an eye on it.
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.
You're channel is so good!!!
Wow, thanks for saying this!
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.
Great review as always.
Thanks again!
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?
If you don't need phone calls via the watch - go for the TRex 😊
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.
The original GTS is iconic!
@@TechMishka still ticking on my wrist 🙂 tempted by the new features of the late siblings, but this little fighter doesn't lose a bit.
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 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.
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)
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
Great video. Love the shirt❤
Thanks Damien for the kind comment!
Would be nice to have a comparison for Coros pace 3 VS Amazfit GTR 4 & Huaweri GT 3 SE for instance
The Coros is a purely sports watch.
Great review thanks, Just ordered gts 4 mini and I wanted an idea of what it was like!
Hope you enjoy it!
Hey! how is going that 4 mini?
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:)
I'm liking this watch a lot, will be looking out for the GTR 5 to see what the improvements are, will stack my pennies in the mean time
Good plan! Not quite sure how soon GTR 5 will appear - let's wait and see.
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 ?
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.
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?
Huawei Watch GT3 has wireless charging, so I am hoping to see such a feature with Amazfit watches too.
Does it only track your activ calories or also your calories while resting?
Great review Michael!
Does it show the current time when countdown and timer are on at the same screen?
Can you swim in the sea?
No way to see these.
And yeah, swimming in seawater is fine, just wash it once you are done with normal water
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.
great review as always but I know what tech products are coming on your channel
1) Fitbit inspire
2)Amazfit band 7
am I right?
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.
How is the connection to the app pairing? I have polar and my watch is awful at connecting to my phone app. Like never wks
Nice review..superb..how about the step accuracy during driving?
It doesn't count steps while driving.
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😢
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.
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.
In your opinion, better GTR 4 or Huawei Watch gt 3?
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.
Hi, do you have any information when the new Amazfit t-rex is coming out?
And will it have a speaker and microphone?
I have no such information, Josip.
I've seen something on Reddit about triggering Google Assistant straight from the watch and watches that have microphones ( GTR 4 as an example ) should give you full functionality. I think it was done with Amazfit Tools or Tasker. Does anyone know how to do this?
Hi mate
Gtr 3 pro or gtr 4?
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
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!
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?
Very good video. Do you now how many memory rom end ram have ?
4GB storage, and 32MB RAM.
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.
Hi. Does it track independent of the phone when doing sporting activities like running and cycling?
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
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
It doesn't support TH-cam.
Accuracy is good, the GPS performance on GTR4 is superb.
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. :)
Well... It upgrades on many features, but battery life is not good at all... You probably will enjoy a lot the UI and navigation
@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
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...
No such way...
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.
I prefer the squared shape of the GTS variant. But thanks for the review
yeah, the space utilization is a bit better for some of the apps.
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
Thanks for great review and so much advice ! 🏆
I know that I probably boring you, but I have not anybody to ask - just one question (maybe I miss this information) - when I receive notification on Whats up, (I know that I cant to reply), but, can I hear the voice msg via speaker that msg ?
Only that.
Please answer, I have 58 years and my son dont live in my country and because is very important to me this feature.
Thanks a lot, best regards for you and al best wishes 🎉🏆🍷
There is no way for the watch to "read" out loud the message. You will only sense the vibration when it arrives and you can read it.
@@TechMishka
Thanks a lot for quick reply and advice 👍💯👍
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?
Hmmm, the counter was accurate in my case.
@@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.
Hi! Im considering between Amazfit GTR4 or Huawei Gt3 Pro. Can you please recommend?
I am a Huawei fan when it comes to smartwatches...
Aw mann. Ive just gotten the amazfit gtr 4. If ive seen this comment earlier i wouldve changed it to huawei
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.
I like your reviews
Thanks mate!
1:23 i saw a bulgarian words😆when you make advertisement on bulgarian
I will like to know how the ekg feature of this watch is turn on... Or this feature is for an update software for future time
Not part of thenl features
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?
I have a problem with my amazfit gtr4, I can't answer my call with my headset. Please help me
Any chance You making a review of GTS 4?
It is almost the same as this one. Will for sure cover the GTS 4 Mini 🙃
If there's something in particular that you'd like to ask about the GTS - feel free to (you may send an email in case I do not respond quickly enough here)
Storage?
Does wireless charging actually matter though? The charger attaches to it magnetically, you just pull off the watch and you're done. I could understand wanting wireless charging if you had to slot a tiny connector in a tiny device but the magnet on the GTR4's charger is pretty cool imo. I have it stuck to my PC's outer metal shell and it's strong enough to stay put when I pull the watch off.
I have had situations where I forget my GT3 charger and was able to recharge it via the smartphone's reversed wireless charging.
@@TechMishka gtr4 has a 5-7 day battery life with intense use and isn't something that's going to die on you unexpectedly.
If wireless charging wasn't so inefficient, I'd be more inclined to see it more heavily implemented. Feels like a downgrade tbh, especially if it comes instead of contact charging.
Could you please suggest a smart watch with stress monitor and calling feature under 15000Rs?
The previous generation of this one should be a good fit.
Even some fitness trackers can now measure stress. But in my opinion - it is not as accurate as most people think...
Music question, does anyone know any good app or website to download FREE mp3? There are lots of with either spam or very intrusive ads.
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....
Probably due to covid lock down in china, not many improvements were made.
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!
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.
Great video !
How is compared with Xiaomi Watch S1 ?
I believe it is better than it.
Does it still have the mode where you compete against yourself ?
I think so.
does the seditary & water reminders need the app or can I just use the watch? please help
you can use the watch only and they will notify you.
@@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
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.
Awesome to see these details. 👍👍👍
Hey I am confused on gtr 4 , huawei gt3 and honor gs3. Please help
All of these are excellent smartwatches. Out of them - GTR 4 has some more cool features.
Does gtr4 have a triathlon specific sport mode?
Anyone knows?
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.
Can we upload custom running workout courses on the watch?
We can't...
@@TechMishka Thanks alot for your prompt response and by the way review was awesome!
Nice tshirt bro..💯
Thanks 💯
In the review you are saying battery is 2 days 07:18
But on the chart it says 7-8 days
Please confirm it
Is there any setting when I don´t ever want use build in speaker?
Nope. But you can simply avoid using it.
@@TechMishka So if Im connected with watches I can pickup phone call normally on phone without using watch speaker and mic? Thanks
Hi, I bought this watch and basically I am very happy with this choice. However the phone calls via the watch are a bit uncomfortable since the person on the other side keeps hearing an echo of his voice. I hoped a firmware update would help but the last one did not change anything. Anyone having this issue? Any solutions? Thanks in advance.
I didn't have this on my end. Is it any different if you try to lower the volume?
It will for sure help if you report this to Amazfit support - they will be able to release a firmware update.
@@TechMishka thanks for the reply. Already reported that to amazfit. Still waiting for any response. Cheers again
Hello mate, have you got any scratches on your watch after the long term use? Should I out any screen protector or something because I'm about to buy this watch and how is the fitness tracking?
@@deepamdhakal8848 I actually bought it along with a full body silicon protector that I use 90% of time. So no scratches at all. As for the fitness tracking I am very satisfied but I do not see any big differences between GTR4 and GTR2 that I switcher from. Maybe only the GPS positions much quicker.
Good video 👍
Thanks 👍
Can you be able to change font size?
Not that I know how...
Waiting for a review of Huawei Gt3 vs Amzafit GTR4
There is such one already ☺️
Както винаги, великолепно ревю! Имам въпрос: освен за плуване в басейн, има ли и режим за плуване в открити води?
Благодаря предварително!
Здрасти Митко и благодаря за коментара. Да, има опция за плуване, която се следи от GPS. към момента смятам, че устройствата на Гармин са по-точни и добри в този аспект.
@@TechMishkaВ ревюто ти видях само за в басейн и затова реших да попитам дали има за в открити води. Благодаря ти за бързият отговор!
Where we can get the protector for gtr 4 ?
There are a lot of options on Aliexpress, Ebay & amazon.
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.
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?
If you gracefully sync and transfer, it will keep it all.
Does it work with Google fit correctly? I need that information?
From what I see on my end - it is fine. But I mostly measure steps.
I like the shirt! I grew up watching those cartoons
😇😇😇
Good morning, i bought amazafit GT 3 pro. It Is nearly the same gtr4. thank you
Enjoy it!
