What's up guys Chigz here from Chigz Tech Reviews
Today I got my hands on a brand new fitness SmartWatch with an
AMOLED display it's 5ATM waterproof
and you have a 24 day battery life and lots more so this is the latest Xiaomi
Amazfit GTR now first of all inside the box you will find a user manual a
USB magnetic charger and of course the SmartWatch itself now you do have a
tough and attractive build quality the body is made from aluminium alloy with
ceramic bezels going all the way around and I have to say it does look like a
well-designed and durable looking SmartWatch and you
can also pick this up in a stainless steel version if you prefer that look
now on the front we have a 1.3 9 inch AMOLED touchscreen with a resolution of
454 by 454 and that is maximum brightness I am going to put the
brightness to halfway just above halfway and to show you that it does look
absolutely amazing a very nice responsive AMOLED touchscreen display
now you also have Bluetooth version 5 now this watch is running a custom basic
OS and it is compatible with both iOS and Android devices furthermore you've
got a built-in 410 milliamp hour battery which promises around 24 day battery
life which is quite incredible and this watch has an IP 68 v ATM rating which
means you can go underwater swimming with this up to 50 meters now the watch
dimensions it's forty seven point two millimeters in diameter and only ten
point seven millimeters in thickness and weighs 52 point four grams and to give
you an idea to size I will bring in the Samsung Galaxy watch so this is how they
fare side-by-side the Galaxy watch is 46 millimeters in diameter with a 1.3 inch
screen it's 13 millimeters in thickness and weighs 63 grams now compared to the
amaze fit GTR which is forty seven point two millimeters in
Mitter with a 1.3 9 inch screen it's ten point seven millimeters in thickness and
weighs only 52 grams so quite similar in size however the Amaze fit is slightly
slimmer with a slightly bigger screen but the straps we have hybrid leather
straps with soft silicon on the inside with these very comfortable ridges and a
very smart looking brown TPU leather finish on the outside
now the watch itself feels quite comfortable on the wrist
it's very slim and light and the straps are also very easy to remove and replace
with your own 22 millimeter strap now on the side of the watch we have two
buttons one is for power and the other one is a back button and on the other
side we have nothing and at the bottom of the watch we have an all-day optical
heart rate sensor and your charger pins on either side so I'll quickly show you
the charger it's a magnetic charger so you just drop it on top and you can go
ahead and charge that up from any USB source and it will take around 70
minutes to charge up and it's quite a strong connection it's not going to come
off very easily as you can see so great magnetic USB charger included now this
much connects to your smartphone via bluetooth version 5 and you do have an
advanced built-in gps and glonass so accurate gps included furthermore there
is no Wi-Fi no SIM slot or no NFC so you do need to be connected to your
smartphone via bluetooth but it does support both iOS and Android
smartphones so this is basically a fitness SmartWatch and the main
functions of this watch are all-day activity tracking with calorie and
distance information you have notification alarms sleep monitoring and
lots more I'll quickly go through the system apps so if you swipe up from the
bottom you've got status heartrate workout activities whether music
notification alarm alerts event reminders more and settings if you click
on more you've got a compass timer count down and find your mobile if we swipe to
the right you'll put a shortcut to your heart rate sensor which we will be
testing in a bit if we swipe again you've got your step counter and that
brings you back to the watch if we swiped
from the top you got some quick toggles and settings so you can adjust your
brightness etc now let's talk about watch faces you can't download new watch
faces directly from the smartphone app so you click on settings go to watch
face settings and these are all downloadable watch faces that you can
immediately download now I'll download one just to show you how long it takes
so if we just choose a random watch face this one here so if you select it it
will say sync watch face I never tell you that
download size is 656 KB which is under a megabyte so it's not a huge huge file to
download so it's already downloaded it's now syncing it directly to the watch and
now this process can take up to one and a half minutes to download and send the
watch face directly to your watch so download dial is successful and there
you go the watch face has now appeared now the Amaze fit app will give you
detailed information on your health activities I haven't done anything yet
myself but you've got walking running cycling sleep data heart rate your
weight goal tracking and then you've got a section for friends you got your
profile settings and over here you can adjust your goals your records etc if
you click on the watch you've got lots of settings that you can activate so
watch face settings unlock screen incoming call alerts event reminder
watch alarm app alerts idler t' and you can click more you got incoming SMS and
call notifications furthermore I'll skim through these settings over here just to
show you what else you can do lift wrist to view info running
background ringtones etc so quite a feature pack watch you do have firmware
updates at the bottom in fact when I first did pair this up there was an
update and the firmware update was an automated process and it and it did
update the firmware automatically for me so now we're going to do a quick screen
on hand-raise tests so amazed fit versus the galaxy watch we're going to do them
both at the same time to see how they fare so here we go
galaxy watch straightaway as usual but the Amaze fit wasn't bad at all let's do
it again
okay a slight second delay and then it's on I think it's doing a very good job
the Amaze fit for the screen on hand raise the Galaxy watch is definitely a
lot faster but a split second later the Amaze fit turns on beautiful screen slim
watch very very responsive so once I got both watches on my wrist we may as well
run a similar taneous heart rate test
without a t3 on the galaxy and we're getting around and we've got a live
reading here on the Amaze fit and it's on 81-82 so both smart watches will
provide you with a super accurate heart rate sensor so there you have it guys
that was the Xiaomi amazed fit gt-r smart fitness watch so here are my
thoughts on this device this is a great Fitness SmartWatch you have multiple
sensors built in giving you superb accurate results for the step counter
optical heart rate monitor and GPS the watch can also automatically monitor
your sleep and exercises another bonus is it's 580 M waterproof so you can go
swimming up to 50 meters underwater the straps are also very comfortable and
removable battery life is very impressive and you can achieve up to 24
days you have a beautiful design with an AMOLED display and the touch screen is
very responsive now there are a few drawbacks which I have to mention whilst
you can download watch faces it takes nearly 1.5 minutes for the watch face to
download from your smartphone and transfer to your watch
I think 1.5 minutes is a bit long to wait and to make things a little bit
more inconvenient you can only download one watch face at a time so if I was to
download another watch face the first one will disappear furthermore Bluetooth
calls and SIM cards are not supported so bottom line if you're looking for a
solid accurate Fitness SmartWatch which looks professional and attractive and
durable and will give you a super battery life with lots of premium extras
like 5 ATM GPS and lots more then this is the one you need to consider in
fact I'm calling the Amaze fit GTR the best Fitness SmartWatch I have tested so
far in 2019 and with that being said I will leave the links in the description
so you guys can check this product out meanwhile thank you so much for watching
and I hope you all have a brilliant day see you in the next one guys
