The lack of a rotating crown is a good thing. Sold my GTS 4 and switched to Garmin because that crown was extremely annoying when running hard or sprinting when cycling.
Is the GTS 3 still a good buy if I can get it a little cheaper than the Active? Or should I get the Active? I have the first GTS and think it’s time for an update!
Watching this in June 2024 - Active is currently going for 115 USD, GTR 4 is going for 170 USD, and the older GTS 3 is going for 90 USD. Any thoughts on which watch if whether the older GTS 3 is ultimately a better deal than the Active, or if the GTR 4 is worth the extra $55?
Bro proud of you as only one person who hailed goods and bads of amazfit. I think amazfit is going moderate and increasing price thinking themselves as good as samsung or apple. So weird
When you are running, does it have the option to give vibration alerts if you get out of a certain hearth rate both in lower and higher values, and can these values be set both manually without being a default ones? And also, does it give additional alerts even if you are in Range? I'm asking cos Xiomi Band 9 does not allow to custom, and even if you select a predefined range it gives you additional alerts to say you to keep going, and that's distracting.
You can change the song and the volume. But it is not a dedicated Spotify app - it controls whatever music player is active and this control is quite limited. You can play the precious or the next track and control the volume. That all
You reviewed the Amazfit Active and the Amazfit Bip 5. In my country they have the same price. What are the diffrences between these 2 and which one would you choose?
Thank you for your review. I may be late to the party, your reviews helped me in making my purchase decision. It's true that Amazfit is now overpriced. I chose to buy the Redmi Watch 4 over Amazfit. I still have my 3 year old GTS2, although it's battery life is only at 3-4 days. I'd still choose my GTS2 over the Active.
Should I go for amazfit active or the GtR mini or The GTS 4 mini or somthing else. But I want to have a budget but a good smart watch for sport and daily life. I want to spend around 150. And for iOS please, thanks
Redmi Watch 4 for the win... I own the Amazfit GTR2e, GTR 4 and the Balance... A lot of features are paid like aura and watch faces. The app is cluttered and all watches are super slow on bluetooth connect... The Redmi Watch 4 is super quick on connect and pretty precise and got a simple app and crazy battery life. Love the tiles setup on Redmi but could wish for more watch faces and a bit annoyed on the date format MM:DD :( Love that the Redmi have a crown and auto brightness. Also loves when I put my phone in DND the watch also goes in DND 👍 Sleeptracking is also better on Redmi since I work nightshifts, amazfit didn't recon that I slept in the day
Hey, I’m thinking of buying Redmi watch 4. Does the global version have nfc payment for visa? Can it answer calls? I’ve found different answers on the Internet and don’t know who to believe 🤷♀️
Thanks for your video, gave me an idea of how the Active is. My Amazfit GTS 3 recently died, after 2 years of intense use, but i really liked that watch. Now i just bought the GTS 4, and with an average use, the battery wouldn't last more than 2 days, so I am returning it after a week of use. Since I still like amazfit i am wondering if i should get the Active or the GTS 4 Mini, as you said before the Active battery life lasts at least 6 days to you. Which one would you consider buying, the GTS 4 mini or the Active if battery is important to you? Thank you!!
I'm looking for a smartwatch with wi-fi (for reliable notifications all over the house). One e-shop told me this model has it, but you didn't mention it. Can you please confirm eather way?
Hi man! Something I don’t quite understand, can I listen to music on spotify using my bluetooth headphones without having to carry my phone? I’d use it for running and would like to know which watch is the best option. Thank you and appreciate the review ☺️
No you can't. It doesn't have LTE type data connection, so bluetooth headphones will only work for music in the inbuilt storage in the watch, not any of the cloud services like spotify.
My gts 3 just bricked today in the middle of a swim. It had randomly turned off a few times (losing workout data) previously. Trying to research a replacement and this looks identical. Identical. And my old one was almost 3 years old........
Amazfit is very good brand, good quality and design, I have the GTS4 MINI and it's absolutly fantastic since 2022 : huge battery and very thin . Even xiaomi is not competitive I think, more cheap looking I would say, Amazfit is a kind of apple watch at third price !
Bro I have seen your earfun buds cheapest of 2020 video. I seen ur family. So good family brother. Can u suggest me cheapest but good earbuds for good phone call?
@@floraazevedo349 I have been turning the brightness up a bit more as the days are getting sunnier but I still don't have to turn it up high. I think it's definitely worth the price. It's on sale all the time. Wait for a good sale and get one. I got my wife one too and she loves it. Just remember that it doesn't store much music if that is important to you. To me I don't care if it stores music or not. Are you considering other watches? If so, which ones? Are you looking for an everyday watch or more of a runners watch? I have mine connected to an Android. I am not a fan of iPhones.
You should think better writing this because fit 2 is much more older model and have bad screen . You should compare active with fit 3 but it looks like app watches replica similar it does not have an original design and not usefull like active in iphones and androids.
I completely disagree with milanmilan. There's nothing wrong with your presentation of facial expressions. Just be yourself. You're doing great. And I find your animated expressions convey enthusiasm and passion for your work. And a positive vibe. It's refreshing, authentic, and YOU.

They do! Or at least they used to 😊
Thanks for the balanced review. It's on sale and I'm checking out my basket now.
Hope you enjoy it!
How's it been for you? Do u like it?

Perhaps they need some better cashflow. We won't mind higher prices if there are newer and better features.

Do you think gts 4 mini is a better buy in terms of value?
It is very similar.
Gts 4 mini looks better.

The GtR2 new edition ☺️

Which one would you recommend and why?
Both are great. I still tend to prefer Active., mostly because of the app

No

Redmi Watch 4
Which amazfit models have nfc?
Amazfit Balance has NFC

Hi, so would you recommend this watch if sleep and heartrate tracking are very important aspects for me? Or should i go for the apple watch SE?
With apple watch you cannot track sleeping unless you recharge prior to going to bed
Can you take calls and answer text messages when it’s connected to an IPhone
Not really

What do you think compared to GTS3?
Maybe GTS3 is still slightly better.

Does that mean you can’t change the Apple Music app on watch?
It can control whichever app is active about music playback
Is it connect in iPhone?
Yes
should i get Amazfit 3 gtr because am liking but my other option that i have available in my place is amazfit and samsung smart watch 6

Not possible, unfortunately. You need WearOS or Apple watch for that
Could you compare between amazfit active and redmi watch 4? I am on the decision to choose one.
Amazfit Active supports contactless payments and you.can rely on some more integrations with other sports apps. The rest is similar.
@@TechMishka thank you
Zepp active app wont support I phone 😢

Yeah, can be tracked
@TechMishka thank you
Amazfit active or amazfit band 7?
Hmmm, active has GPS
I have this. Not measuring awake time, REM and Naps. Is this a software issue you reckon? Or defect with the unit I have?
It has measured REM in my case. As for naps - didn't get the chance to try out.
An active crown or bezel I can go without, but having to manually adjust the brightness every time I go indoors is a big turn off.
Yeah, same here.
I have seen absolutely NO reason for a crown, bezel or auto Brightness feature. I like my Active.

Most Redmi buds have good price and quality.
The only tempting thing about this watch is the weight. I love a heath tracker on my wrist that weighs as little as possible.
Agreed!
The observation I make is that many manufacturers like Amazfit really don't pay attention to what is being done by the competition 🤦🏽♂️
Hah, this is a very good point!
Good hardware and design let down by weak software, shame. Amoled, GPS and long battery life give it some chance for some if on good sale
Totally
It has Zepp OS 4.0.
Yeah, this is a rather recent upgrade.
It had zepp 3.5 os now
Nice!
