Amazfit T-Rex Pro review with pros and cons

Amazfit T-Rex Pro review with pros and cons




Amazfit has been able to make a name for itself in India’s wearables space in a very short period of time, thanks to its feature-rich, good-looking, and well-priced offerings. Slotting in on the premium side of the brand’s portfolio, the T-Rex Pro is an interesting new addition and comes as an update to the T-Rex launched last year. Let me take you through its workings to give you an idea of how well it fares.

First, a quick look at the specs and features.

  • 1.3-inch, 360 x 360, AMOLED display
  • MIL-STD-810G certified for ruggedness
  • 10 ATM water resistant
  • Weighs 59g with strap
  • SpO2, heart rate, sleep tracking
  • GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, Galileo
  • 390mAh battery
  • Sensors: PPG bio-tracking, acceleration, gyroscope, Geomagnetic, Ambient light, Barometric
  • Bluetooth 5.0
  • Supports 100+ sports modes
  • Works with Android and iOS

What’s good

  • If you’ve seen the non-Pro model of the T-Rex that was launched earlier, the T-Rex Pro might not appear to be very different in terms of design. If you haven’t though, let me tell you that the T-Rex Pro looks every bit the rugged, outdoorsy smartwatch that its military-grade certification would indicate. Crudely put, it resembles Casio’s G-Shock lineup of watches in terms of design, and that does have its share of fans across the globe. It’s big and chunky, so if you’re looking for a more elegant or subtle look that would possibly go with your work attire, this isn’t it. That said, I love it!

  • Despite its chunky design though, it’s very comfortable to wear over long periods, and weighs a mere 59g.
  • Its military-grade certification means it can withstand extreme temperatures, humidity, salt spray, ice, and freezing rain, and shock. Even the water distance rating has been bumped up to 10 ATM as compared to 5 ATM on its non-pro sibling.

  • The AMOLED screen is a beaut. Not only is it bright and vivid, it has an always-on mode too. Moreover, it comes with a layer of Gorilla Glass 3 and an anti-fingerprint coating. The screen isn’t overly glossy and has a matte finish on it. I also love the fact that the screen is recessed within the outer rim of the casing, which means there are fewer chances of the display getting scratched… I keep bumping my hand on door edges and furniture while walking around, and this helps immensely.

  • The swipe-driven interface is easy to use, but if you choose, you can use the buttons on the side to navigate through the menus instead. The large buttons can be operated with gloves on too. The two on the left allow you to move up or down through the menus, while the ones on the right let you select or go back.
  • Apart from the much-in-demand SpO2 feature, you get the usual functions like tracking steps, workouts, sleep, heart rate, etc. Built-in GPS means you don’t need to carry your phone with you if you want to track the route for your walks or runs. The device also features a compass, altimeter, and barometer for atmospheric pressure.

  • The T-Rex Pro pairs with an Android phone or iPhone via the Zepp app, which syncs all your physical activity data faithfully and provides detailed metrics. The app allows you to change device settings and also lets you download more watch faces.
  • What’s not so good

    Verdict

    With its sticker price of Rs 12,999, the Amazfit T-Rex Pro goes up against the likes of the OnePlus Watch (review), the OPPO Watch (review), Realme Watch S Pro, Mi Watch Revolve (review), and quite a few others. Each of these has its own pros and cons, so you’d need to decide on the basis of what you like in terms of design and capabilities, Barring the iffy SpO2 (which might or might not be a deal-breaker for you), the T-Rex Pro is certainly an option worth considering if you have 13k to spend on a fitness watch. This is important since many of the same functions can be found in cheaper devices, including some from Amazfit itself. One thing is clear though – you’d either buy the Amazfit T-Rex Pro for its looks, or for its ruggedness if you’re a serious adventure buff.
