The amazfit GTS2 has a 1.65-inch AMOLED touch screen display which gives you a resolution of 348×442 I found the display to be high quality showing colors well being visible in both daylight and indoors. One feature I found very convenient was as a result of the always-on mode, you can view the watch at a glance, and it can be scheduled to turn on and off at certain times so you don’t wake up to a glowing watch.  

The touchscreen is responsive and lets you swipe through applications seamlessly both the 3d curved glass and the aluminum 44-millimeter watch case feel nice to wear and it comes with a removable 20-millimeter silicone strap I believe the amazfit GTS2 is an improvement from the original and functions better.

As a smartwatch, you get notification alerts weather forecasts event reminders and the built-in speaker and microphone can handle calls impressively I did find when you dismiss a notification on the watch, it doesn’t reflect on your phone, so you’ll miss out on the chance to dismiss it on your phone as well in the amazfit GTS2.

The amazfit GTS2 comes with a built-in music player and three gigs of storage so you can leave your phone at home while you exercise, transferring music can be done via the app, but you must own the music to take advantage of this feature; GTS2 does not support streaming services, which could prove to be a deal-breaker for someone.

Also features voice assistance the offline assistant is very responsive to your commands and allows for hands-free control over key applications which enables you to control your other smart home devices through the watch though Alexa compatibility has been iffy I think that this watch works best as a casual fitness tracker as opposed to a sports watch it tracks.

The typical metrics such as your steps distance caloric burn additionally the smartwatch features a GPS set to track your outdoor activities although it’s susceptible to dropping coverage and can be frustrating at times and it’s nowhere near as smooth as some of the similarly-priced competitors.

The amazfit GTS2 is waterproof up to 50 meters so you can take it during swims and showering I found my developed bio tracker sensor to be innovative which offers while the watch does offer real-time heart rate tracking during exercise and measurements of blood oxygen levels, it is not medical grade and while the heart rate monitoring is solid, competitors like Fitbit do offer higher accuracy.

Similar to google fit heart points the gts2 gives you the personal activity intelligence scoring system awarding you points every time your heart rate is increased and sending you alerts for an activity it also has improved sleep tracking which tracks your stages of sleep ranging from light deep to rem and gives you in-depth insights including tips on the sleep checker can provide you with a sleep score out of 100 and track naps between 11 am and 6 pm.

The amazfit GTS2 can also track your breathing while you sleep, as well as tracking your stress level every five minutes throughout the day, giving you a score. The companion app zap is where you’ll get most of your advanced insights for your sleep patterns to stress levels and physical activity while the app can be a little clunky to use it offers you important information and it lets you transfer your music over it has customizable watch faces and a solid selection that offers both digital and analog aesthetics.

In my opinion, the impressive battery life is a standout feature packing a 246 milliamp-hour battery amazfit GTS2 claims up to seven days with typical usage of 20 days in basic usage and better than the expected GPS battery life of 25 hours I found the actual battery life is a little bit less averaging around four days with typical use which is still better than most competitors like the Fossil gen 5, Samsung, or Apple watches.

The charger is magnetic and it takes only around two hours to charge. Further saving the battery can be achieved by disabling features like GPS 24/7 heart rate monitoring and the always-on display.   to full so is it worth buying well that depends on what you’re looking for on a smartwatch.

If you’re looking for a smartwatch for fitness then at a similar price point I would suggest the Fitbit versa 2 might be better but if you’re looking for a smartwatch at top performance and you can afford to spend a little bit more I would recommend a Samsung or an apple.

If you’re looking for a smartwatch that gets the most value for your money and includes an array of useful features, such as a voice-activated assistant, a music player, 24/7 heart rate monitoring, GPS, and is a wallet-friendly option, then the Amazfit GTS2 could be right for you. However, that is just my opinion. I’d love to hear your thoughts.
