Review on 🕰️ Amazfit GTR 42mm Smartwatch - GPS+Glonass, Heart Rate Monitor, Activity Tracker, 12-Sport Modes, Moonlight White, 10-Day Battery Life by Kristiyana Briblo ᠌

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Not worth the money, I will not advise this product.

As I found out later from the reviews, this watch is a copy of the HUAWEI Watch GT 2 Classic and, of course, I did not personally check it, but the reviewer stated that HUAWEI has no problems at all compared to these, that is, everything works fine and stably. The whole catch is that I bought them in a store for 5200, but this is at a discount and with bonuses, otherwise they cost 12 thousand and the funny thing is that in the same store HUAWEI Watch GT 2 Classic costs 1 thousand more, that is, 13 thousand, but this is without problems with software and with wider functionality (for example, you can answer calls, you can download music and listen to it + more memory and the battery lasts longer) and the question is if you want to take this watch not being afraid that it will be some kind of Chinese counterfeit, or a watch after repair, but new, from the factory and with a guarantee from the store for 1 year, then will you take a copy when the original costs 1 thousand more than the most? I think not, so I want to say this in conclusion, if we talk about them as about hours for 5200, I have no complaints, the functionality is wide for that kind of money, and you can close your eyes to problems with the software and I hope they will be fixed, but if we talk about them how about a watch for 12 thousand, and even for 10 thousand, then I would not take them to be honest, it’s better to look for something else. [ate] It seems that I figured out why the watch was periodically disconnected from the phone, I bought myself a new phone with Bluetooth version 5.0, and before that there was an iPhone SE with version 4.2, and on the new phone the problem with disconnecting from the phone disappeared, I would say that this is good, but of course it’s worth it say, why is this actually happening? It just turns out that you definitely need to have a new smartphone, along with this watch, although not everyone can afford it, and there may be situations for others, so I'm still glad that they work fine now, but in general it's still a minus as well , which does not work well if the Bluetooth phone has an older version.

Pros
  • - Very cool design in the style of classic watches; - The screen is not big and not small, that is, the golden mean; - It works for a long time without charging (even in the cold, charging does not go into a minus, like, for example, some phones. From the purchase, they lived for 5 days, but this is taking into account the fact that I specially discharged them for 2 days, but recently fully charged them for 5 days passed, still 65%, very good); - Wide functionality (for example, it is convenient if you sit for a long time, the watch will vibrate every hour, reminding you to get up and stretch); - Good screen quality; - You can change the straps, which are just a huge selection; - There is protection against water, but I really did not check it once;
Cons
  • - The software works very badly, a prime example. The watch periodically disconnects from the phone, which is why you have to restart Bluetooth and only then the watch will reconnect to the phone. The second example is that notifications come with some kind of Wishlist, then you will consistently receive them, then they will simply stop coming and then they will start coming again, as a result, you can’t completely trust the watch and you still have to look at the phone, this is of course not for it’s critical for everyone, but those who don’t want to constantly take the phone out of their pocket, or simply put it somewhere at home and don’t want to constantly go to it to see what’s important there, it will be critical. + Combine this with the problem of disconnecting from the phone, get a minus combo for someone, I will not say that for me it is super critical, but not pleasant. Moreover, the problem is known, they are trying to solve it on the forums, but something doesn’t really help, to be honest; - They can perform only one function, for example, if you turn on the timer, you cannot see the time; - The accuracy of the pedometer is not absolute, it sometimes counts 2-3 steps at once, although I see that I did 1-2, and I don’t really understand, but sometimes it counts the steps in real time, and sometimes it ates the number of steps after some time, but apparently it is connected this is with the work of GPS in hours. The heartbeat also somehow thinks in its own way, but obviously not exactly, which, by the way, is indicated on the forum; - The iPhone clock functionality in the application is cut compared to Android phones - A small selection of dials, in 2022 at all there are not yet, there are very few functional and beautiful ones, and those that do have flaws. Although the Western system of writing the date, which is mirrored, is more infuriating, it will be very inconvenient for a resident of 2022; - You can not answer calls, only reject; - For some reason, the screen turns on only when you press the button, but pressing the screen does not work, but it works for a while if you press the button;

Has pros: A high-quality case (not a single scratch in a month), a good screen, a decent battery lasts up to 14 days. Its cons: Lack of more flexible screen settings when swiping left, right, down, etc.
