Huami launched several smartwatches under its Amazfit brand last year. This year is expected to be no different as we expect those watches to get successors alongside new models too. A leak has revealed some of the smartwatches the manufacturer has planned, one of which will have an eSIM.
Amazfit T-Rex Pro/T-Rex 2
The Amazfit T-Rex launched last year as the manufacturer’s first rugged smartwatch. It was also one of the first products announced by the manufacturer in 2020. Now a successor is on the way and it may launch as the Amazfit T-Rex Pro or Amazfit T-Rex 2.
The smartwatch has been spotted at the FCC where it is listed under both names mentioned above but with the same model number – A2013. Images seen in the FCC document show that the Amazfit T-Rex Pro/T-Rex 2 will have a round screen just like the first-gen model. It also shows that the watch will have GPS and workout detection.
A leak from Nils Ahrensmeier, who posted details of the OnePlus Watch and OnePlus Band earlier this month, revealed in a tweet that the Amazfit T-Rex Pro has the codename “blancw”.

Amazfit GTR 2 eSIM (volga)

The tweet also mentioned the names of other upcoming models which are listed below:
Amazfit Health Watch Pro
The Amazfit Health Watch launched as a China-exclusive health-based wearable back in 2019. Now, a successor is in development almost two years later under the codename “jiuhuashanpro”. There is a chance that this too will be exclusive to China.
The first-gen model has support for NB-IoT (Narrowband Internet of Things), a special low-power radio standard for communication. It allows the watch to send health information to emergency health services in real-time without the need for connecting to a phone. It also has ECG and fall detection. We expect the new model to have these features and more when it launches.
Amazfit GTR 2 eSIM and Amazfit GTR 2 LTE
At CES 2021, Huami announced that it has an LTE version of the Amazfit GTR 2 planned for launch later this year. However, it appears there will be two versions. Alongside the Amazfit GTR 2 LTE which has the codename “volgaw”, there will also be a version with an eSIM called the Amazfit GTR 2 eSIM with the codename “volga”.
There is no info on when these smartwatches will be announced but they will most likely be spread across the year.
