Popular smartwatch maker Huami has officially launched the Amazfit GTR smartwatch for the Indian market. The Amazfit GTR should be the fourth smartwatch Huami has launched this year after the Amazfit Verge 2, Verge Lite and the Amazfit Health Watch. The Amazfit GTR comes ina 42mm and 47mm variants but only the 47mm version has been made available in India.
The Amazfit GTR 47mm packs a 1.39-inch AMOLED screen with a resolution of 454 x 454 pixels. The screen is covered by the Corning Gorilla 3 with anti-fingerprint (AF) coating. In terms of functions, it supports mobile phone calls, text messages, emails, calendars, social applications and other information reminders, and can also find mobile phones and control mobile phones to play music. The watch also supports contactless payment as it is equipped with a built-in NFC chip. It can also be used to unlock the smart door lock and other contactless services such as bus card.

In terms of battery life, the Amazfit GTR 47mm daily use mode lasts for 24 days, the basic watch mode is 74 days, and the GPS continues to work for more than 22 hours. The watch comes with three material variants adorned with three high-grade metals: titanium, stainless steel and aluminium. The titanium variant just went on sale in China so we doubt if it will be available immediately in China.
As for the price, the Huami Amazfit GTR 47mm smartwatch is priced at Rs. 10,999 ($154), which is for the aluminium and stainless steel models. The price is slightly higher than the 999 yuan ($140) price in China, perhaps because of customs duties and other import costs. The smartwatch will be available from Flipkart and Myntra starting Thursday, September 12. It comes in an array of colour such as Cherry Blossom Pink, Moonlight White, Starry Black, and Tan am.
