The steps count and heart rate measurement are questionable. I have compared these results to previous baseline results from other devices from other brands that I find reliable for many years.
Overall, I have been impressed with the T-rex. It has a beautiful large bright watch face. Navigating the menus is intuitive, much easier than Garmin. Downloading maps and routes is as easy as Garmin. You can’t map out routes on the watch, and the the maps are not as detailed as on the Garmin, but I prefer to create routes on my phone or laptop anyway and I can identify points of interest on these devices. I like the data fields for workouts. Even though the watch face is giant, it’s light and very wearable. Haven’t used the AI voice control much yet.
The battery is not exactly what I had hoped. Adjusting the GPS, turning off nighttime monitoring, turning off HR monitoring except during workout, and turning off always on watch face, I get about 7-8 days. I was hoping for 2 weeks. There are many watch faces, but they are not organized well or searchable. Most of the watch faces can’t be modified or modified much. The phone app is not as intuitive to navigate as the watch.
Overall, after using it for one month, I’m happy with this watch. I purchased it to use for multiday backcountry trips and wish the battery was a little more robust. For a long trip, I will have to charge it with a power bank. At about 1/5 the price of the Fenix 8 AMOLED, I think it’s a better value.
I absolutely love the watch design as well as the UI it was very fun to use and all the features worked really well. The only reason I ended up sending it back was because of the lack of apps. I came from a ticwatch pro 3 and really enjoyed being able to initiate messages with others and the Spotify app was far superior to the Spotify 3rd party app with Zepp OS as well as a few apps I ended up really missing from the play store. If app productivity and having your watch cooperatively manage those apps with your phone is not a priority for you then you'll love this watch and all the other features it has to offer.
This watch is insane! The amount of metrics it track is unreal. The battery life puts an Apple Watch to shame by like 200times. Can’t recommend this more
