Amazfit GTR 2 Smart Watch for Men Android iPhone, 14-Day Battery Life, Alexa Built-in, Fitness Watch with GPS, Bluetooth Call, 90 Sports Modes, Blood Oxygen Heart Rate Tracker, 5 ATM Water Resistant

It is not the first time that I have bought an Amazfit watch, I've had 3 or four watches, but they were cheaper models like the Bip. I bought the GTR 2 because I wanted to be able to answer a call straight from my watch. I usually use it when my phone is charging, and I don't want to be sitting close to the electrical outlet. The call quality is excellent, my callers don't notice anything different when I answer on my watch. If you want it to monitor your sleep you will have to sleep with your watch on, which some people find difficult. I love this feature because it will give you a grade depending on the amount of sleep and the quality of it. Some of the things that it monitors are the time you are asleep, the times you wake up during the night, the amount of REM sleep, and the amount of deep sleep. Another feature that I use frequently is the Workout mode. I start a basketball workout when I start playing and it will log the duration of the workout, the calories that you burned, and the intensity of the workout. The app is not very useful to use at first, but I am pretty good at using it because all the models use the same app. One of the things that I had trouble with, is the notifications because you need to go to the settings and select all the apps that you want to show on your watch. You also need to set up the watch to be able to answer calls, otherwise, it will tell you that somebody is calling you but you won't be able to answer the call. Pros: Great quality when answering calls on your watch. A ton of great features for the price: Workout mode, step counter, Alexa integrated (I haven't used this feature, but some people will find it useful), you can control your music (pause, previous track, next track) Very useful app. Great battery life and is very fast to charge. Cons: The app is not very intuitive at the beginning, and some people will find it confusing or difficult to find the setting you want. Sometimes the watch disconnects when you charge it and it won't easily connect back (I reboot the watch first, and if that doesn't work I will restart my phone) In conclusion, I would recommend this watch if you don't mind spending some time at the beginning to do all the setup.

Why I bought the Amazfit GTR 2 This is my 3rd time purchasing an Amazfit branded smartwatch. I high recommend getting the GTS 2 or the GTR 2 and not E or Mini versions. I originally purchased the Amazfit GTS 2 Mini and it was nice but I hated the blood oxygen monitor on it, I found myself in many situations where I received phone calls and wanted to answer but couldn't on the GTS Mini. I'm also an Apple Watch 5 owner and I even prefer this watch from that one. I'm no longer stuck in Apple's ecosystem, nor do I have to worry about charging two devices after a full day of work. Apple offers a lot features that you never really use because most of those features you turn off to save battery life. They forget we also need our smartwatch to be an watch an good extension of our phone. Why I like the GTR 2: I like the GTR 2 because it's offers a great experience, even from unboxing it. The screen is beautiful, I mean even more when you see it in person. I have no complaints at all. Absolutely gorgeous. I love the design, I love you can change the straps, and I love it looks like a classic timepiece. The markings are great when you have the analog clock enabled especially when Always-On mode is on. The clock faces are customizable and you can also download them from other apps. Honestly the watch faces are the best thing about this smart watch. Whatever you choose it looks great on the screen and can match with your attire very well. I really wanted a smart watch for notifications and phone calls, & its great for that too! Now I can check messages and emails at a glance as they come in throughout the days and I don't have to worry about missing that important call because I couldn't hear my phone or maybe I wasn't in a good vicinity to reach it. It's really a nice feature to have coming from the GTS Mini 2 that only presented notifications and no way to answer calls. Smart Health features: This is another reasoning onto why I love this watch. Its smart health features are awesome and very accurate most of the time. Every health feature just works well. I haven't ran into the problems I experienced on the GTS 2 Mini. The Zepp app presents all this information well and I utilize the information to help me experience better sleep and exercise. Alarm: Yeah, I know most reviewers don't talk about the simple stuff but having this watch as alarm is great. First, I don't need a loud siren to wake me up when I wear this watch. It vibrates my wrist to a custom vibration and my body knows to wake up and get active. No more snoozes, no more stress from an alarm. And the reason all of these features work is because of the battery life of this device being around 7 to 14 days on a single charge. I don't have to worry about charging, so everything is a connivence to use and it makes more fun and just worth the money also you get these features on the watch that make it even more of a bargain: Waterproof: take it in the shower, wash the dishes, is it working? Yes! Go swim, you good, it can handle it. Alexa & offline voice commands: Yep you can control your smart home from the Alexa on your watch, ask it questions. You can also control the watch just by using your voice. Not a feature I use all the time but its there and most important it works well. 3gb of Music storage: they didn't lie here either, you can store up to 600 mp3s on this watch and enjoy them on the go or connect to some earbuds. Find my phone: I use this more often than not, the watch has good range. I always find my phone with this feature. Weather: It's so awesome to wake up look at your wrist and know to weather for the day. Didn't even have to reach for the phone at all. Just took a shower and got dressed for the day. Verdict: I could go all day singing GTR 2's praises, there's too much to love here and not so much to hate. Most of the problems that I see on YouTube from the original reviews have been fixed. It's not sluggish, it's very snappy. It's updated with Alexa. & I hear Amazfit is working on other update soon. Hopefully they add the camera remote back in on this watch cause that's a convenient feature to have as well. It's a MUST BUY for anyone wanting a smartwatch on iPhone or Android.

Got this (my first “smart” watch) for a good price since it’s a couple models old now. For perspective, I’m a middle aged average guy starting to try to fight the dad bod and get into better shape. I also like classic watches (square forms just don’t do it for me) so I was happy to find an affordable round one like this. I chose the green one for the nice soft silver watch body and replaced the band with a stitched leather one for a little more classy look for everyday wear. The green silicone band is comfortable and I’ll use that if I wear the watch in water, but for the rest of the time the leather really ups the look. Size isn’t too big, either (I have fairly thin wrists). The software is reliable so far after a few weeks and the app is well-featured. I don’t use most of the features, of course, so it’s more than enough. It’s definitely a fitness-focused watch with a few extras, not a full smart watch but adequate for average users like me who just want some basics to help me think about my activity level. It has lots of workout/activity choices, that’s for sure. I haven’t tried any sleep monitoring so can’t speak to that. For the rating I stopped at 4 stars just because while they make a big deal out of the insane battery life, I think you’d have to tweak settings a lot to get that much. Leaving the watch factory settings as is, I’m getting about 8 days. That’s still fantastic compared to the expensive full featured smart watches, so no complaints. Also the weather app loses connection often. I wouldn’t care about that but I actually like it more than I thought I would, so hoping they improve it with a software update. I like that the watch shows me texts when they come to my phone; it’s handier than I expected, helping me decide if I need to grab the phone to read more or reply. People have been complimenting the watch, which is always nice. Looks kinda matter after all, since it’s still an accessory. I definitely recommend the Amazfit brand now that I have this. It’s great as a watch with some nice added features at a great price, and if it’s your first smart watch, it can be helpful to get you more aware of your activity level and such, which can help add some motivation to put more effort into a healthier, more active lifestyle. Step counting alone has already made a difference for me. Happy so far!

Let me start off by saying that I am not a watch person. I have never liked wearing a watch, but recently found a need to purchase a smartwatch. I do a lot of kayak fishing and I prefer to keep my iPhone 13 ProMax in my dry bag while out on the lake. But if I get a phone call that means I have to reach to the back of my kayak, unhook the dry bag, and then open the bag and take my phone out. By the time I finish with that I miss the call. With the Amazfit GTR 2 Smart Watch I can simply tap on the watch and answer the call. Is it perfect? No. Sometimes it's hard for the calling party to hear you. It also has very, very limited bluetooth range. For example, if you're at home and get a phone call while your phone is in the next room you probably won't be able to pick up the call on your watch. The Alexa compatibility is decent, not great. In order for it to even work at all you need to keep the Zepp watch app open on your phone. Because the watch has a speaker, I expected to get Alexa voice responses, but that doesn't happen. That pretty much eliminates a lot of Alexa functionality for me. That's disappointing to me because I do use Alexa for a lot of things including controlling many devices in my home. The data, health, and sleep tracking is good although I usually prefer to take the watch off when I sleep. The watch faces are OK, but nothing really stands out for me. When I bought the watch, all watch faces were free. But now the started adding watch faces that you have to pay for. I may end up trying to create my own instead. Overall, I'm happy with my purchase for the price. But I hope the next version has better bluetooth range and allows for the full Alexa experience.

I purchased the Amazfit GTR 2e for a special needs person to monitor her sleep cycles and give her access to her music. I thought it could be connected to her Android tablet as she cannot use a phone. I obviously misunderstood the description and requirements for this watch. One of the most annoying requirements for using these devices is that you are REQUIRED to download the app on a phone (and ONLY a phone) just to use the most basic of features of this watch. It will not even let it display the time until it is linked to the app on a phone. The app on the phone REQUIRES you to set up an account on some unknown server to use the app. Two strikes against, but I was still willing to give it a try. Within 24 hours of setting the watch up, the memory on the phone was full (2.5GB of free space used in less than 24 hours). I could not even open the app to try to figure out what the app was storing. My only recourse was to uninstall the app, which rendered the watch useless because it could not connect to the app. Strike 3, your out. Now I am not even sure the app is fully uninstalled because the phone keeps trying to connect to some unknown server if the wifi and data are disabled. This did not happen until after I installed the watch app. I do not recommend this product, especially if you are concerned about your privacy and a potential hack of your phone. It certainly consumed all memory on my phone and is burning data bandwidth at a phenomenal rate. The last time I saw this type of behavior was when a app on her tablet had malware embedded. Nothing else has been installed on this phone except the watch app.

Initially, I had an Amazfit band 5 watch that I thought was pretty neat and efficient with a long battery life. Unfortunately, I dropped it on the ground, and just my luck, it landed on the face and cracked. I was heartbroken because I'd come to depend on it counting my steps and delivering phone notifications. I was about to replace it, but this model caught my eye. What really won me over was the Bluetooth call feature. Just to be clear, you can only receive/answer calls to speak through the watch. You cannot dial out and speak through the watch. But just being able to answer calls and talk hands-free is a major feature for a watch at this price point. Not only that, but this watch also has super long battery life. It has all the expected fitness features, and memory to store MP3s to play directly through the watch. Sure, there are other bigger brand-name watches that can do all of that or more, but do those watches go a week or more without charging? I don't think so! This is a perfectly capable, affordable, sleek-looking, lightweight smartwatch with long battery life. It's not a fussy device at all.

To truly get this watch to track your exercise, you need to set it to an exercise mode whenever you’re active. For me, that means while at work I set it to “walk” exercise mode, and then it accurately tracks my exercise for the day. Otherwise, it really doesn’t monitor heart rate well. The sleep monitoring works well for when I sleep, even with naps, but I don’t believe it’s various ratios of light sleep vs. deep sleep, number of times awake, etc. it seems sketchy at best. And again if one doesn’t have it set to an exercise mode, it doesn’t accurately track your heart rate throughout the day. Having it operating for exercise mode also drains the battery significantly- I tend to charge my watch every other day. This doesn’t bother me because it charges fast (20%-100% in 15 minutes) but just note-worthy. The gps tracking was impressive to me. I like to hike mountain trails, and it accurately showed how far my walk was, altitude, etc. (of course only if I had it set to exercise “hike mode, but still). Was fun to see the map of my walk, how intensive certain parts were, etc. Have worn it while kayaking and brief swims and it hasn’t had any issues with water. Batter charging nodes haven’t worn down at all (I have a cheaper old smart watch and it’s battery nodes corroded over time and it sucked, this one hasn’t had any issue)(plus I sweat a lot so it’s impressive how little this one shows any wear at all). Overall love this watch. Has withstood the tests of time, constant wear, and has been a fun way to check on my health, just taken with a grain of salt.

The Amazfit GTR2e is exactly what I was looking for in a smartwatch. It has solid and nice looking design, 80 + whatch faces and growing, an amazing 2 weeks + battery with regular use, or a full week with heavy usage (doing exercise with gps tracking, continuously heart rate monitoring, etc...) It monitors very accurately my sleep patterns, it measures the blood oxygenation, also the body temperature (not great because of the place it measures it) and it has a plethora of exercise modes to choose from. The only thing this version doesn't do is take phonecalls or listen to music directly from the watch. These functions are available on the regular GTR 2 for a premium if your in to that. The bands are 22mm universal fit and you can find a great variety of styles and colors on the internet. It's a great bang for the buck! I highly recommend it!

The watch has everything I need for my rides and runs., it is stylish, and very light.

It's classic edition with steel body. It's great watch looking very nice on your wrist. Battery timing is 4 days on full use, always display on function and bluetooth calling functions turn on. Moreover, it has black leather bands in this edition. Moreover, it is waterproof. I take shower by wearing this. Overall it is beautiful watch.. On negative side its Alexa function is little bit slow and offline voice assistant is also not responding quickly. Any how there is no need of these functions for me.. GPS is working fine, sports and other modes are very good. Heart beat and sleep time accuracy is very good.

La verdad es que es un smartwatch muy completo a un precio muy razonable. El diseño es muy sencillo y elegante o sport a la vez. Para mi es muy importante que puedas recibir llamadas en él, pues es algo muy cómodo y lo hace muy bien. Los acabados son muy buenos, de calidad. Un producto muy recomendable.

This watch is an amazing improvement on my old Firbit charge 2, for about the same price. It is beautifully styled and has a huge number of features. While the battery doesn't quite live up to the projected time between charges, it is still far superior to many watches that are twice as expensive.

I bought one and the watch looks exactly how I wanted so that is a good thing. However, one of the reasons is because its water proof and has a good range of sports you can track. The problem I have here is that it lacks on some basic features that it feels like they don't release to force you buying the next one. I am having a huge pain wearing this watch because it is not able to track my swim laps for example and that is ridiculous. The watch is able to measure the swimming pool, track the time so it could simply store the laps for every 50m/25m/whatever. What makes it worst is that a watch that was releaed before(stratos 3) has this feature which shows they choose not to add to this one and that makes me think if they are trying to hold on features just to force people buy another one on so simple features. Please, add swim laps to this watch, you have all the data you need in there. As you don't offer to install other apps, let's add at least the basics to the sports part to make us happy !!!!! I am now thinking on buying another one just because of that :/ really disappointed with this.
