Huami is globally known for innovating wearable devices. We recently wrote about their latest smartwatches – the Amazfit Bip Lite and the Amazfit Bip S. There is a new addition to Huami’s smartwatch series, called the Amazfit T-Rex. It was first announced at CES 2020, back in January. The watch looks as good as any premium smartwatch and has quite a few advanced features. The Amazefit T-Rex is selling at Rs. 9,999*. If we have to describe the Amazefit T-Rex in one word, we would call it ‘Rugged’. Let’s check out features of the Amazfit T-Rex military-grade smartwatch.
The T-Rex is designed and made ready-for-any environment. It has passed 12 military certificates for its robustness and reliability. This watch can withstand extreme heat up to 70 degrees Celsius. The T-Rex can also survive from freezing cold temperature of -40 degrees Celsius. Like the Bip S, the new T-Rex is 5ATM certified. This means, you can wear this watch while swimming and track underwater activities up to 50 meters deep. Also, sweating or getting wet in the rains should not be an issue. Amazefit claims the T-Rex has a 20-day battery life. This means, you can fully charge the watch once and forget about it for at least a month. A 20-day battery life is really impressive and is longer than what most smartwatches offer.
The watch looks strong and sturdy. It has a round dial and a flexible silicon strap. The Amazfit T-Rex is available in five colours – Gun Grey, Rock Black, Camo Green, Khaki and Army Green. These colours make the smartwatch look as good in the office as while hiking or cycling. The watch body is equipped with shock absorbers and protrudes a little bit on the outer side. This helps to absorb shock and prevent screen if it falls from a height. Also, the buttons are made up of metal for better grip and precise control. There are four buttons, two on either side, to help you navigate through menus and settings. The outer ring of the watch is made of a special ink-filling technology to take the quality of the watch a notch higher. It protects the screen especially in rough, outdoor conditions.
The Amazfit T-Rex has a 1.3-inch AMOLED display and it runs on a resolution of 360 x 360. You can choose to have an always-on display, if you do a lot of outdoor activities. It is great, because the T-Rex can give you updates on what is happening on your phone at all times. This feature is also very practical, because you can now wake display of the smartwatch by simply raising the wrist and not by tapping on it. In addition, the watch has a number of built-in watch faces to personalise your smartwatch. There are different artwork and colours to make your smartwatch look elegant. You will find more watch faces on using the official Amazfit app. The T-Rex also support third-party sites, where you will definitely a collection watch faces you’re looking for.
The Amazfit T-Rex comes with a huge range of features. This watch can track 14 different sports and activities, including running, climbing, walking, skiing, hiking and swimming.. The watch also measures your heart rate, records your sleep patterns and tells how fit you are. The watch uses a high-end Sony GPS chip and dual-satellite positioning system. With the Sony GPS chip, the signal efficiency has been increased, made faster and accurate for positioning. It also consumes less power. This means, even if you use GPS for 20 hours continuously, the battery won’t drain too fast. This way you can use the Amazfit T-Rex to track the number of steps and the distance you run every day to monitor and achieve your fitness goals. All the information is available on the watch itself and can be also viewed on the Amazfit app.
Like the Bip S, the T-Rex is smart in terms of connectivity. The Amazfit T-Rex is compatible with Android as well as iOS devices. It supports Bluetooth 5.0 to communicate with your smartphone. Also, the watch can help you find your phone in case if it goes missing, as long as they are both connected to Bluetooth. Apart from this, you can easily control music playing on your phone, read notifications, silent or decline calls, get weather updates and set reminders with the T-Rex.
The Amazfit T-Rex is aimed at users looking for a smartwatch at a reasonable price. It is a good choice if you are also an outdoor enthusiast and want a smartwatch that does a lot of things you would typically find in smartwatches priced higher. This watch boast extensive fitness tracking, has game modes, gives access to the latest tech and is equipped with long battery life. The Amazefit T-Rex is ready for harsh environments and has GPS too. It’s a very good value one would pay for a smartwatch. The Amazfit T-Rex is available to order at Reliance Digital.
