The Chinese smart wearables maker Zepp Health launched their popular line of Amazfit smartwatches earlier this year including the GTR 3, GTR 3 Pro, and GTS 3. Now, the company has rolled out some major software updates for these devices.

These devices work on the company’s own Zepp OS which has now been upgraded to version number 8.26.3.1 for the Amazfit GTR 3 Pro marking the second major update for the device. The update brings the GoPro Mini app for the GTR 3 Pro available now in Zepp’s app store. Zepp health has also introduced a new background application status indicator on watch faces. Additionally, the update also brings a screen lock function in the control center, manual altitude calibration, as well as the usual improvements to system stability and fixing of some known bugs.

The Amazfit GTS 3 with version number 7.30.3.1, and the Amazfit GTR 3 receive the exact same features and changes with this latest firmware update minus the GoPro Mini app which is only available for the Amazfit GTR 3 Pro.

For those unaware, the Amazfit GTR 3 Pro was released back in October 2021 sporting a 1.45 inch AMOLED panel and new BioTracker PPG 3.0 biometric sensor, adding the ability to measure multiple health metrics at the same time. It’s One tap Measuring even allows one to measure their heart rate, blood oxygen level, stress level, and breathing rate and get all four results in 45 seconds. The Amazfit GTR 3 Pro is priced at $229 in the US markets, but you can find it for cheaper during the holiday seasons.

Last week, Zepp Health (formerly Huami) announced its latest generation of smartwatches. Since then, these wearables have been slowly making their way to various markets around the world. They have been now confirmed to launch in India on October 20 (tomorrow).

Zepp Health introduced three new smartwatches a few days back. They are Amazfit GTR 3, Amazfit GTR 3 Pro, and Amazfit GTS 3. All three will be officially unveiled tomorrow in India.

Ahead of that, their availability has been confirmed by partner retailers. In fact, we already know the price of one of these models.

According to a report by MySmartPrice, the Amazfit GTR 3 will be sold in India via Flipkart. It will be priced at ₹13,999 and will be available for purchase at 12 PM starting tomorrow itself. Buyers will be able to avail 10% discount on SBI Credit card transactions.

On the other hand, the Amazfit GTR 3 Pro and the Amazfit GTS 3 will be sold by Amazon India. Unfortunately, that’s all the information we have at the moment. It’s not known how much these wearables will cost and when they will go on sale.

Anyway, going by the price of Amazfit GTR 3, the Amazfit GTR 3 Pro should cost more than that. Whereas, since the price of GTR 3 is almost similar to its predecessor, the Amazfit GTS 3 will likely carry a near-identical price tag of its forerunner.

When Zepp OS was announced in July, one of the new features the manufacturer revealed the new operating system would bring is an improvement in power consumption. With the launch of the new Amazfit GTR 3 and Amazfit GTS 3, that claim is indeed true as both watches do have better battery life, at least on paper, than their predecessors.

The Amazfit GTR 2 and Amazfit GTS 2 launched with a battery capacity of 471mAh and 246mAh respectively. Surprisingly, the new Amazfit GTR 3 has a smaller 450mAh battery compared to its predecessor while the new Amazfit GTS 3 has a 250mAh battery which is a tad bigger than that of its predecessor. Nevertheless, the Amazfit GTS 3 with its smaller battery capacity, but the same 1.39-inch display size as the Amazfit GTR 2, has better battery life. The Amazfit GTR 3 which has a slightly bigger battery but also a larger 1.75-inch screen compared to its predecessor, the Amazfit GTS 2 whose screen is 1.65 inches, also has better battery life.

The table below shows how the new smartwatches compare to the old ones with respect to battery life:

Amazfit GTR 3 vs Amazfit GTR 2

As shown in the table above, the Amazfit GTR 3, even with its smaller battery capacity has an additional 7 days of battery life when compared to its predecessor for typical usage. For heavy usage, it also gets an extra 3.5 days of battery life which is quite impressive. Surprisingly, in battery saver mode, its battery life is 3 days fewer.

Amazfit GTS 3 vs Amazfit GTS 2

The Amazfit GTS 3 has a bigger display than its predecessor and a slightly bigger battery. It is understandable that it has a bigger battery since the larger display means the overall watch is bigger and there should be more space to squeeze in a bigger battery. However, since the screen is bigger and the difference in battery capacity is very small, one wouldn’t expect a significant difference in battery life, right?

Turns out the Amazfit GTS 3 is as impressive in terms of battery life just like its circular sibling. In typical usage mode, its battery life is 5 days more than that of the Amazfit GTS 2. It also lasts for an additional 2.5 days in heavy usage mode when compared to its predecessor. In battery saver mode, both smartwatches have the same battery life.

Zepp OS – A promise delivered

It is pretty nice to see that the promise of better power consumption with the arrival of Zepp OS is not false. Although the details above were pulled from their product pages, we don’t expect a significant deviation, if at all, when the watches are reviewed.

Amazfit is gearing up for the launch of its new smartwatches. Now, a new leak has showcased the renders of the GTR 3, GTR 3 Pro, and GTS 3, along with some of their specifications.

The renders and information regarding the upcoming smartwatches from the Chinese smart wearables maker arrives from PassionateGeekz. For those unaware, Amazfit is planning on releasing new products on 11th October 2021 globally and also aims on hosting a launch conference on October 12 for the Chinese market. During this event, the GTR 3 series, which includes the base and Pro models, will be announced along with the GTS 3 as well.

The report adds that all three watches will support 150 sports modes, feature an aluminum alloy body, and Bluetooth 5.1. Furthermore, the wearables will also offer Breathing Exercises, Sports Modes, Biometric Sensor, Respiratory Rate Measurement, Swimming Pulse Measurement, SpO2, Speaker, Bluetooth calls, Music storage, and more. The GTR 3 model sports a 1.39 inch display with 454 x 454px resolution that is powered by a 450mAh battery that can last for up to 24 days.

Furthermore, the smartwatch will be similar to its predecessor in terms of features and will launch in two color variants, namely thunder black and moonlight gray. Although, a notable inclusion this time around is the inclusion of Amazfit’s proprietary software, the ZEPP OS, which aims to deliver a significantly faster and more responsive interface over the OS it offered in previous generations. Now, even the animated watch faces will run at 60 frames per second.

Talking about the GTR 3 Pro, it will feature a design similar to the GTR 2 Sport and Classic models. However, there are certain changes like an increased display size from 1.39 inch to 1.45 inches along with an improved screen to body ratio of 70.59 percent. In other words, its bezels are now narrower, measuring just 3.5mm while its display has a pixel density of 331ppi.

Not a lot is known about the GTS 3 at the moment, but it will feature a 1.75 inch display and launch in three colors, including tera rose, ivory white and graphite black.  Arriving at the pricing, the GTS 3 is expected to be sold around 205 US Dollars, while the GTR 3 and GTR 3 Pro are expected to launch in the 215 US Dollars and 225 US Dollars price segment respectively.

In a tweet shared by the Amazfit Global account, a first look at the logo is visible in the video attached to the tweet, and it shows a switch to a new font with lower case. The font color is black but judging from the caption, that may not be the final color.

There is a lot of anticipation for the new Amazfit smartwatches as they are expected to run the new operating system unveiled in July. Called Zepp OS, the new operating system comes with lots of new features that will provide a better experience for users. The OS is not only light, coming in at just 55MB, a small fraction when compared to the current Amazfit OS or even Apple’s watchOS 8, but also brings an improvement in performance and battery life. The manufacturer also promises an increase of 190% in battery life with the new OS, and support for internet cloud service applications a.k.a. web apps among other upgrades.

In related news, we have spotted a new Amazfit Smartwatch at the FCC. The smartwatch, which has the model number A2040, was certified on September 23 and from one of the documents, we can tell it has a round display.

We were also spotted new features such as a different UI with new options in the menu. As shown in the image above, the menu appears to have been redesigned. There is now a menu option that reads “Card Package”, above it is ”Calendar” and there is also a “Tools” menu option. The Settings menu also has some new additions such as Apps which points at app support. The System sub-menu also has a new option tagged “Bind New Phone” along with the other familiar ones.

This is definitely a new UI that will appear on the upcoming smartwatches and we can’t wait to try it out.

Huami has today confirmed that it will be hosting Amazfit 2021 Global Annual New Product Launch Conference on 12th October where the company will be launching the Amazfit GTR 3 and Amazfit GTS 3 series wearable devices.

As the name itself indicates, the devices will be launched as the successor of the Amazfit GTR 2 series and GTS 2 series smartwatches that were launched last year.

While the company has not revealed what the upcoming wearable products pack in terms of features and specifications, some details are already known because of leaks. The GTR 3 was recently spotted on Brazilian regulator Anatel’s database with model number A2035, showcasing the same circular body as its predecessor and two buttons on the right side.

Like many other smartwatches, this one too will come with support for heart rate monitoring and blood oxygen sensor. It remains to be seen if the company upgrades the heart rate sensor to include blood pressure measurement.

It is also being claimed that the Amazfit GTR 3 is water-resistant up to 5ATM and is powered by a 440mAh battery, which should be enough to make the device run for about two weeks on a single charge.

To know more about these upcoming smart wearable products from Amazfit, including features, specifications, pricing, and availability, we will have to wait for the official launch event which is scheduled to take place in a couple of weeks.
