Excellent Finish, Simple and Functional
Crafted from aircraft-grade aluminum alloy, the body of the Amazfit GTR 3 Pro is suitably light on the wrist ( 32 grams in weight). Its simple design becomes much more attractive when you know that you have more than 100 spheres at your disposal.
It is not a very large smartwatch, since in the Amazfit GTR 3 Pro the bezels have been slimmed down and now it brings us a circular screen of 1.45 inches in diameter, compared to the 1.39″ measurements that the GTR presented two.
You will immediately have a Premium feeling thanks to its good finish. In addition, it is water-resistant to up to 5 ATM, despite including a microphone and a speaker, so you can use it for swimming.
Although later we will delve into the aspect of the screen, we anticipate that it has a higher refresh rate than previous versions, since it exceeds 50 Hz and is compatible with Always On Display with a couple of beautiful designs on the spheres, one for the moments in which the screen is active and another one of reduced view for the AOD mode, whose solid lines and black backgrounds make the visualization more effective.
Continuing with the design of the Amazfit GTR 3 Pro, we have two customizable buttons on the right side. One of them, located at the top, is at the same time a rotating crown that opens the list of applications. In the same way, if you leave it pressed you can access the App you want, including the training app.
By turning it, you will have the opportunity to scroll through each of the menus, while on the right you will find the microphones and on the left the speaker. At the bottom, you will see the BioTracker sensor that records your health metrics.
Regarding the lower button, it is used to establish it as direct access to the most used function, for which you will have to configure it for a short and a long press. By the way, another way to activate a specific function is by long-pressing the crown. Here you will have the possibility to launch health monitoring functions, voice notes, Alexa, or remote control of the camera.
Not everything is perfect, and although with the crown you can move through the menus, you will not be able to activate a certain option. In fact, once you press the crown, it returns to the home screen, and being there is when you can open a menu.
As far as Alexa is concerned, it works very well, not only when asking questions but also in home automation connection with smart devices in the home, but the Amazfit GTR 3 Pro also has an offline voice assistant that works without being linked to your Smartphone.
In the same way, you can enable settings to use your voice to open a certain App, start a physical workout, adjust the brightness on the screen or play music. One of the settings is to make the Amazfit GTR 3 Pro listen while the screen is on, and another option is to activate the offline assistant using one of the buttons.
As if that were not enough, it is a watch that you can wear on both the left and right wrists, thanks to its perfect symmetry.
Everything makes the Amazfit GTR 3 Pro a very well-finished design watch where simplicity and functionality stand out.
Amazing Visualization and Efficient Response
When it comes to customization, the screen of the Amazfit GTR 3 Pro features AOD mode faces that show the time, date, and other data, which you can check with just a glance, and there are many pre-installed AOD faces in very interesting versions such as an analog option. with thick arms and others totally minimalist.
You have the option of controlling the brightness of the screen or enabling automatic brightness, and something worth noting: it reaches 1000 nits, and this means that you can have a magnificent view even when the sunlight hits it directly.
Likewise, you have the possibility to control how long the screen will remain on and you can configure the Always On Display function to have it permanently enabled or to be deactivated at night.
In parallel, the Amazfit GTR 3 Pro screen has multiple options to display the information you need, some from the device itself and others through the use of the complementary Zepp App. One of the interesting alternatives is the one that activates the screen when a recent notification enters.
Of course, you can wake up the screen by gesturing with your wrist, which you can also program to prevent it from being activated once you’re in bed during your moments of rest. It is easy to do it because from the settings you can determine the most convenient hours in which you want to activate it.
Regarding the customization options, the Amazfit GTR 3 Pro gives you access to more than 150 watch faces of various formats, colors, and classes, some animated and others interactive. Even more: you can create your own watch faces using photos from your gallery. Without a doubt, you will never get bored with so many options.
The screen of the Amazfit GTR 3 Pro is simply great, it offers an amazing display, it has the ideal size, great resolution, and efficient response to gestures. Impossible to ask for more!
Fast Data Collection
The amazing speed with which the Amazfit GTR 3 Pro can collect data is due to the innovative BioTracker version 3.0 sensor, which has six photodiodes and two LEDs that drive incredible accuracy from the start.
A great example is the detection of blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) which is twice as fast as in previous models: only 15 seconds. Tracking your breathing rate is also possible quite accurately, even at times when you sleep, as well as 24-hour heart rate tracking.
Sleep monitoring in the Amazfit GTR 3 Pro deserves a separate mention, because, in addition to measuring the deep and REM stages, it counts the moments when you woke up and even daytime naps. And there is more. Every morning you get a report with the score of the time you rested and how long you stayed in each phase.
Through the sleep monitoring of the Amazfit GTR 3 Pro, you also get a record that helps you improve your habits because it can tell you if you went to bed later than usual or if you spent a lot of time using the phone before going to sleep.
The user experience is greatly simplified with the PAI Score, which tracks various metrics based on your age, heart rate, and other characteristics. If you keep that score at or above 100, you’ll be fine.
The Amazfit GTR 3 Pro also has the option of performing a quick and global reading through the One Tap measurement tool, which avoids you running separate tools and performs a quick 45-second review in which you have all the relevant data. From heart and respiratory rate to blood oxygen or stress.
This watch can even measure the temperature of your skin, and in the case of the female audience, track periods, predict the next fertile window and the days of ovulation.
Exercise Tracking with Extensive Sync
In the Amazfit GTR 3 Pro, you have the tracking of more than 150 sports modes, as well as the automatic recognition of 8 modes that do not require manual start for activation. The benefit you can get from all the sensors is impressive, as data can be synced to both Google Fit for Android users and Apple Health for iPhone owners.
But there are other great possibilities since you can sync it with third-party apps like RunKeeper, Strava, or Relive.
The Amazfit GTR 3 Pro features VO2 Max, the internal algorithm that tracks your maximum oxygen consumption, the load and efficiency of your workouts, and how long it takes you to recover after each exercise. Everything serves to thoroughly evaluate your progress.
And if you prefer swimming to run, you should know that the BioTracker 3.0 sensor also works in the water, measuring your heart rate when you’re in the pool.
Connectivity and Storage
Although the Amazfit GTR 3 Pro has all the functions that we see in other smart watches in relation to connectivity, there is an additional advantage: its large screen that accepts a lot of text, to the point that you can read the entire body of an email by Gmail, thanks to a crown that supports easy scrolling without you having to touch the screen.
Of course: since there is no keyboard, voice to text, or pre-established answers, you will not be able to answer instant messages or text messages, which can be considered a disadvantage. What is possible is its operation as a hands-free speakerphone and you can start a call in the “Phone” application.
Now, although it is possible to make Bluetooth calls directly from the Amazfit GTR 3 Pro, you need to take into account the absence of eSIM, therefore, you will have no other option than to keep it in permanent connection with your mobile to enjoy this function.
In the organizational aspect, the Amazfit GTR 3 Pro presents interesting tools to synchronize it with the Google Calendar, which will put all the important events that you need to know on your wrist.
In addition, you can use the microphone to take a voice note and to use Alexa, with which you will have the opportunity to control smart devices in the home.
Thanks to the available storage of 2.3 GB, it will also be possible for you to transfer audio files to listen not only to songs but also to podcasts or even audiobooks. For this, we advise you to use Wi-Fi connectivity since via Bluetooth the transfer would be much slower.
It is important to note that the Amazfit GTR 3 Pro also has a very useful 3GB of audio storage due to the Zepp OS software, which, by the way, you can also use to load new watch faces of an extraordinary variety. In this sense, it is worth remembering that Amazfit plans to launch a tool to generate your own sphere and share it.
Another thing: the App to control the camera remotely only allows you to take the photo, but not to see the image in real-time. Also, you have to be within Bluetooth range for it to work.
A Fast Charge with Great Autonomy
On average, the Amazfit GTR 3 Pro’s battery gives you around 12 days of regular use and about six days of heavy use. You’ll typically need to charge it a couple of times in two weeks without using exercise tracking, but with all notifications turned on, heart rate and SpO2 monitoring, and sleep quality tracking with the Always On setting. Display.
Regarding the charging system, this model is improved and completes a charge in just two hours, when the previous model took 2.5 hours. In just over an hour you will see that the discharged battery easily reaches 90%.
When you don’t have the charger handy and you find that the power is running out, you should activate the battery saving mode, which can extend the typical use time up to 30 days.
Innovative and Efficient
The Amazfit GTR 3 Pro goes beyond having a refined appearance and extensive customization possibilities through its 150 watchfaces, but rather has a screen with a display that generates great satisfaction due to its sharpness and brightness.
The presence of the innovative sensor BioTracker version 3.0 allows the production and analysis of various health quantifications while developing the correct monitoring of sports modes that exceed a hundred alternatives.
To the above, we must add the use of Alexa and the corresponding possibility of controlling smart devices, as well as the great storage capacity for transferring audio files and making Bluetooth calls.
