Thanks for great review!
Can you please show how to add music on iPhone and how control music during workout for GTS 2/GTR 2?
Both of them looks pretty amazing but I will be choosing the GTS2! Cheers mate!
Haha actually me too simply cuz of the watch faces 😂
@@LimReviews Yeah so rad! (>‿◠)✌
With a firmware upgrade expected the initial battery problem should be solved and then the gts 2 is the better
@@vidarv.9010 Agreed!
@@LimReviews Can you show us all the watchfaces? Just scroll through please? Thank you
Hi Lim
What’s the watch face that you are using in GTS 1 ?
Thanks for your great review !
Thank you so much for the comparison. Did you see any bluetooth connectivity issues with either of them when on an iPhone?
Very helpful thank you. 👍🏻
Glad I found your channel. Love from India
New sub here ! Great videos as always man
Thanks for the sub!
Very informative. Definitely subscribe you!
New fan from Egypt🇪🇬
i like ur review! glad its coming from malaysian
Awesome! Thank you!
Awsm review likes and hearts from this indian fan
your reviews are really awesome. could you please publish your reviews on amzefit gts mini...
The review is good but you could've explained a bit more about the music playback and how it sounds , also about taking a call directly in watch to see how it sounds to the other person on the call
Great Content!
Id like to know if GTS 1 still have issues with step tracker and heart monitoring? I think it was a previous problem due to update?
Most of those issues have been fixed considering the watch has been out in the market for a year now.
Good comparision and presentation....
Glad you liked it!
hello congratulations for the video.
i'm from brazil, i would like to know when the global version GTS 2 will come out.
Hey Patrick, as I mentioned in my other replies, we don't have confirmation yet but expect it to be released before end of year.
They have FINALLY made a complete apple watch clone that is a good price and is actually functional
If you think this you don't know difference between smartwatch and health band
I have both and to be honest, the GTS is more pretty than the Apple watch. Looks better.. But its not a clone when it comes to the functions.
Had the GTS 2 and it was absolutely awful. Battery life was barely 24 hours. I never got the update you talked about that helped the battery life. That with an average of a 1-2 hour run every day. The GPS was off by about 1/2 mile. I have the Amazfit Bip S and this little thing is amazing. What the hell happened? Are they using a different GPS chip or what.
LOL when you said it says you're stressed when you're eating!
Thanks for nice review. How loud is the speaker on GTS2 when the music is played on the watch itself?
It's actually very loud. Might pop your ears.
Hey Lim, cool vid as always. Can u give us some infos on the mp3 transfer. Is it like a mass storage device, just plug in to ur computer and move files over? Or is it stored via the phone? In that case, how long would it take to transfer lets say 500mb? Just asking because on my last smartwatch the music transfer lasts like forerver. Very slow :-( Greetings!
Thx for the exhaustive comparison
I bet GTR vs GTR2 is next.
Looking forward to it!
In terms of battery life and Zepp:
Are you willing to try third party apps like notify for amazfit/Zepp from onezerobit to see if it improves?
I'm using notify for miband and the things you can set up and personalise is staggering
Hello! To be honest for all my devices I use the app from the brand itself. For the case of Amazfit + Zepp, you have no choice but to use it cuz all the watch settings are set from the Zepp app. Even the watchfaces is in the Zepp app. Noted on the Mi Band app though. Haven really tried it!
@@LimReviews thx for the reply!
I see, that's very interesting
Here is the Play store link to the third party app for amazfit. It even works with the Zepp e watches.
It will do all the syncing instead of Zepp app and you can decide how often it should sync
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mc.amazfit1
Sir Lim..i will ask only if amazfit gts is capable on calling..thanks..More power on your Channel.🙏🙏🙏
hi lim! have you heard about honor band 6? hope you can make a review about it
Can you please compare the GTS2 and GTS2 Mini? There is significant price difference and we would like to know what we are getting by paying that difference. Thank you.
wow.. was wanting the GTS2 and now hearing that the battery life even reduce actions settings, is only 2 days.. hummm that just tell me AMOLD displays can't be a good system for watches..... l love my BIP original keep up the good work Lim !
Haha the BIP is really solid in terms of battery. I love the battery life too. Thanks buddy.
I strongly considered both of these. However, I purchased the Garmin Venu SQ because it has texting capabilities and neither of these do.
I've been looking at your videos on the Amazfit gts 1 and 2 - excellent stuff. After seeing the review on the GTS2 with the poor battery life , I purchased the GTS 1 a couple days ago. ( Still waiting for it to arrive)
I currently have a Samsung Watch and the biggest issue I have with it is the bettery life. Charging every day and a half or two days is very annoying. I also am accustomed to features like microphone and speakers - features I rarely use; therefore they are not a major selling point for me in the GTS2
I think I made the right choice with the Amazfit GTS1
Thank you for your videos!
Appreciate the kind words and hope you're happy with the GTS1. The Samsung Watch is a great device, I like it too, but just like you, I can't survive on 1-day battery life.
The gts 1 has a great battery and very reliable.
@@LimReviews Hey Lim, I couldn't find information about Huawei watch gt2 vs gtr 2 always-on display.
As far as I understood, aod on Huawei watch shows the time for a certain amount of time (20 min)
Is it the same thing with gtr 2?
Great quality video and thank you for posting. The big question mark for me is battery life. I am not seeing the numbers you are for the GTS. While I do not have GTS2, you say that under the new software the battery life for the GTS is down to 4-5 days? Did I hear that right? I am getting more than a week with almost everything turned on and almost daily workouts that use GPS. So this causes me to seek a second opinion regarding battery life.
Hi Dennis! I used to get about 1 week as well but I'm not sure why of late it has been down to 4-5 days. I do receive tons of notifications on a daily, and I wear it to sleep everyday to track my sleep. It's worth noting that I have 2 Amazfit GTS' and the results I'm getting are similar.
@@LimReviews Thanks, Lim. Will keep an eye on it. Your channel is great!
Really helpful. Thank you!!
damn smooth video...you are malaysian version of dave2d
2 days on one charging is ridiculous for a watch without wearos. Lets hope it will be fixed.
Question: can you listen to music from the watch and having training program running at the same time? If yes - can you change track and / or volume?
And another situation - can you connect watch to the phone and wireless earphones to the phone at the same time? In this situation - can you change music track on your watch when having wireless earphones connected to the phone, so the track that is being played on earphones will change? And can you do the same while having training program running? Thanks in advance!
I'm undecided between the fitbit versa 2 and this watch. Which one would you recommend?
A rather helpful comparison review. Now I can easily and clearly see how they are both different, thus justifying the price difference. My only comment is...why would you always have your watches set in Chinese language when you are doing the explanation/review in English? Just an honest question.
Can you mute the call recived from the mobile from the watch. Meaning if I mute it in my watch the mobile will go mute as well?
Definitely a good review. The always on display is actually much better in the imitation watch from china called sg3 where it display a whole watch face like samsung s3 frontier/classic yet performe an outstanding battery life of 7-10 days. But as other imitation smartwatch that cost less than RM150, the health screening is not accurate at all..
As always thorough review and detail!
Kinda wondering, is there any gts 2 watchface third party out there? I cant use gts 1 watchface third party 😭😭😭. Only from zepp atm
I'm sure there are 3rd party apps out there offering more watchfaces but I do not use those so can't help, sorry!
@@LimReviews aight, thanks for the heads up. Keep doing what you good at man! 🙌
Very detailed and useful comparison.. especially wen i bought gts 1 just 2 days back..now im fine..i didnt make a wrong choice😂
Same here bro I got GTS-1 one day back 😂🤣
Are the watch bands interchangeable between them? I like the color options better on the first one, but I am leaning towards getting the second so I was hoping I could get the band on the first and put it on the second.
Do you recommend any of these two for outdoor activities. I'm looking for a cheap watch with GPS, Badometer, altitude meter etc
Mabey T-Rex or GTR model
I have T-Rex and huawei gt2 ,so gt2 i used it just 15 days and T-Rex for the past 2 months, its my daily driver, i recomand u T-Rex for gym, running,all around and i use huawei gt2 just for a better finest look, but for outdoor and all day T-Rex its all u need,14 days battery
Can you please do a comparison between Honor Magic Watch 2 and Amazfit GTR 2 ?
Hlw bro,In your opinion plz tell me which smart watch do u recommend huawei watch gt 2,honor magick 2,amazfit GTR 2,amazfit GTS 2????????display,battery backup,fluency which is better????
When you receive 4 or 5 messages back to back, is the first message shown on top or still shown the below like GTS 1 version?
Thank you for the video ! I still don't understand how can you just have 5 days of battery life on GTS 1. Plenty notifications maybe ? I bought mine 1 month ago, and I reach 14 days with 70% of battery. When the watch has 30% or less I charge it but maybe I can extend it 1 week more
Yeah I think it is the notifications. That's why I usually highlight that battery life varies based on usage. Yours seem to be excellent!
For me GTS 1 is prettier than GTS 2
thats the only one reason i am seeing this video man i am frustrated amazefit gts 2 could be more premium looking
It's just because of the dark black wallpaper
Hey how are you doing, it's been a while since you have reviewed any Xiaomi device, if possible do a review of Mi 10T Lite according to it's availability in locality
Good idea! Thanks for the suggestion :)
I was thinking if I should buy the gts 2 instead gts but when I Heard about the huge difference of battery Life, I'm still gonna stick with gts ver plus cheaper. Thanks buddy
Cheers buddy.
Are you wearing the 70mai saphir watch? It looks beautiful and I am thinking of getting one
It is! You have sharp eyes. My review is on my channel too :)
Hey Lim, I couldnt find infrmation about huawei watch gt2 vs gtr 2 always on display.
As far as I understood, aod on huawei watch shows time for certain amount of time (20 min)
Is it the same thing with gtr 2?
Is the watch face on GTS 2 you have on blue in background? because otherwise it looks like an LCD vs GTS1 hehe
It is indeed blue!
what about the accuracy of the tracking ? Calories burned , distance etc ..for the both the devices. Is the accuracy is better in GTS2 than GTS ?
Is the change from GTS 1 to GTS 2 mini worth it?
Hi Lim, thank you for your complete videos! 😉 I have an iPhone X and I'm indecise about buying Amazfit GTS 2(Now) or Apple Watch 3/SE (in a few months). ... which would you recommend me?
Actually you should just go for the SE. The GTS2 battery life isn't that great, and considering that you might as well go for SE :)
Apple watch SE no brainer. Don’t go to S3.... SE is way way way better.. almost A series 5 without ECG and AOD! Done
@@LimReviews Thank you so much Lim!😉
@@hlmep1439 you’re right... SE is the best choice
@Lim Reviews Hey Lim, first time saying hello to you 😊
I just need to have a quick clarification with you. I’m living in China and I would like to buy an amazfit(AF) smart watch. Does any of the AF watches allows me to change the language from default Chinese to English either in paired phone or smart watch directly? Your expertise would really help me to buy and I owe it. Thanks and best wishes!!
Hello Sandy! The answer is no. You cannot change languages in almost all the Amazfit smartwatches. The reason for that is simple. Amazfit sells their watches cheaper in China. To prevent people from buying in China, and reselling at lower prices globally, Amazfit has locked the languages in the smartwatches.
Hello there very simple and good comparison my dear 😉☺
I would like to see a comparison of GTR2 vs GTS
I am using Gts for almost a year and I am very pleased 😁
Thank you in advance 🤗
Thank you! I'll try to put that on the list of videos to do!
Maybe you were stress eating. LoL! Great video.
Where did u get that Apple like watch face? I want it
Its unfortunate that the amazfit gts2 didn't have a nfc chip. I guess it's not the most expensive part, but would create a huge value to the watch
Since Zepp App, my Amazfit GTS last only 5-6 days instead of 10-11 days with Amazfit App. Something in Zepp App drained battery crazy.
Amazfit have to retake control of their App and make reliable if they like to sell some more piece of the new Amazfit GTS 2
I agree with you. It's the same for my GTS1 here as well.
Hi, I am looking for a smartwatch but I don't know which one to buy. Can you help me? I would like one that responds to calls and, if possible, answers notifications. I had seen the GTS2 but your videos have made me doubt. Which one do you advise me?
can u pls make a review of the north edge xtrek 3 also?thanks
Hi I am from India.I want to buy smart watch?can I go with honor magic watch 2 or wait for Amazfit upcoming smartwatches.
It is more suit as a fitness tracker + watch, rather than a smartwatch, am i right?
Hi lim! how about in 2022? is GTS still worth?
Does the GTS 2 includes the ECG function? Please include source if possible, I'm lurking on google but so far no definitive response
Does the gts2 got a reminder feature like I've seen on the gts1? On the watch face, like a notification?
I'm still in shock on how poor the battery life in the GTS2 is!! How do they state 7 days but can only get 2?? Is it a major software issue? Will it be resolved??
Which one with NFC do You sugest?
Terbaik boss 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Tenkiuuuu
Hi Lim, one question regarding notifications, on the GTS1 I have an issue with how the watch splits text, it ends the word where the screen ends, and it moves whats left of the word on the next row, basically it gets hard to read a notification only because of how the words are split, on the BIP it just moved the entire word on the next row. Whats the GTS2 behavior for longer text?
Unfortunately that is still the case in the GTS2 buddy.
Great reviews Lim, Thanks, so no limit of budget, best smartwatch with speakers, music download, good vibrations for the alarm, spo2 , good battery life and not to big ( ex: Huawei gt2 46mm to big) ??? Thanks for the answer guy
Great question. Might have to say Apple Watch but.... doesn’t work on Android 😂
Not to big for men. And I have a bit tiny wrists. BTW, Honor magic watch 2 is basically the same watch (like gt2) with lower price. Apple is too expensive and I dont like squarish designs.
@@LimReviews apple watch only 1 day battery ?? No? I want something like 5 days minimum
@@gnomisa you have honor 46mm or 42 mm one ??
@@roland7449 honor magic 2 46mm and gtr 46mm
Hi Lin! Thanks a lot for your videos! Where did you get these watchfaces? From zepp app store? Is in this store any premium watchface? (I mean paid one)
Thanks for your work!
Kivan
All the watchfaces I use are from Zepp, and all are FREE!
@@LimReviews Thank you for your answer!
IF Phone's Bluetooth is connected with wireless earphones then the fitness tracker like walking / swimming will work accurately right instead of connecting GST , right?
Do you think that original GTS will recieve some features grom 2nd on updates? Like new AOD, more settings?
I don't think so. Some might come, but not all. AOD settings seem like a feature specifically for the GTS2.
Hi can you pls suggest me should I buy GTS or GTS2e
Which price is suitable for India for gts2 watch .....as per our knowledge?
How does the GPS perform? This was a point with many complains on the GTS1. Would be really useful to further test the GPS. Particularly connection time, since the GTS1 reportedly took a lot of time to lock on the signal.
It's really a hit and miss. Sometimes I get good signal, sometimes not. But then so is the case on my other smartwatches like the OPPO Watch.
Which is better to buy gts or gts mini i am really confused
Can you do a video like this but for gtr and gtr 2?
Hi bro.can you please make a comparison between amazfit bip s and amazfit bip U. Thanks
GTR vs GTR2? Would be cool to see battery life on GTR2 with AOD off etc.
Should have time to make that video next week!
Is the both straps the same?
Which one better versus the price?
what do you think about Zepp e Square ? Could you compare Amazfit Gts 2 vs Zepp e Square ?
@@leet6597 but zepp's material is better
@Lim Reviews hows the GPS connectivity on this one?
How's the battery life with the GTS2 if you don't connect it with bluetooth to ur phone? When u said 2 days, do u connect it to ur phone 24/7? Thanks
I did not test that as it doesn't make sense to turn off the watch just to save battery. It is always connected to my device except for when I sleep when I turn off my Bluetooth.
is it possible to use phone's gps in these watches instead of its own?
Does Amazfit : has some kind of Fall detection alert / notification or something alike ? Native or App? Linked to phone or something ?
Native : no
App: I don’t know
Is the GTS2 works fine in Canada because i just command one on Amazon
can do comparison with gts2 with the new huawei fit?
Hi Lim!
I have one question: Which would you choose the Amazfit GTS 2 or OPPO Watch 41mm? In Terms of Price its almost the same. :/
Great question. Seeing as the battery life is pretty poor, the OPPO Watch actually makes sense now too. However, I am not seeing accurate fitness data on the OPPO Watch. Also the app is not as good as the Amazfit app. I might do a comparison video for this.
@@LimReviews Thanks a lot. :D
