Features Amazfit T-Rex 3

The watch’s display has seen a signi icant upgrade. It features a 16% larger AMOLED screen that is now 100% brighter than its predecessor.

This enhanced clarity ensures that users can easily view the display, even in challenging light ng conditions. The rugged military-grade build is further strengthened with a stainless steel bezel, providing a tougher exterior to withstand extreme environments while maintaining a sleek aesthetic.

One of the standout features of the T-Rex 3 is its advanced navigatio capabilities. The smartwatch supports offline maps, including contour maps with turn-by-turn directions, which are crucial for hikers and explorers venturing int remote areas. More importantly, they will be free to download!

Battery life is another impressive aspect, with the T-Rex 3 offering up to 27 days of typical use. For GPS-heavy activities, users can still expect up to 180 hours of continuous GPS usage.

To complement the outdoor focus, the smartwatch has introduced advanced privacy features, giving users complet control over their GPS data. Whether stored on the cloud, temporarily saved, or entirely disabled, privacy remains a top priority.

Zepp OS 4 powers the T-Rex 3 and integrates AI more deeply than ever, thanks to its partnership with OpenAI’s GPT-4o technology.
