Huami has launched two new smartwatches in its home country China. These models, dubbed as Amazfit GTR 2e and Amazfit GTS 2e are exactly the same as regular models in looks but with certain minor changes under the hood. Both of them are priced at ¥799 ($122) and are already up for pre-order. They will go on sale starting December 24.
The newly unveiled Amazfit GTR 2e and Amazfit GTS 2e are cheaper than the standard Amazfit GTR 2 and Amazfit GTS 2. But they offer a much better battery life with the same capacity battery as they lack WiFi.
For instance, Huami claims 24-day battery life in normal usage and a whopping 45-day battery in basic watch mode on Amazfit GTR 2e. On the other hand, the regular Amazfit GTR 2 with the same 471mAh battery is said to run for 14 days and 38 days in these two modes respectively.

Similarly, the Amazfit GTS 2e with its 246mAh battery is advertised to offer 14-day and 24-day battery life in normal usage and basic watch mode, as opposed to 7-day and 20-day on the standard Amazfit GTS 2 with the same capacity battery.
Further, the two new wearables feature a temperature sensor, which is absent in the regular models. But to keep the price down, they neither have sufficient internal storage for the music player nor a speaker for calls. But they do come with a microphone for Xiaomi XiaoAI voice assistant.
Last but not least, there’s a negligible difference between the dimensions and weight of the newer and standard models. Also, the latest models only come in the following sporty colors.
