Amazfit GTS 2 Smart Watch for Men Android iPhone, Fitness Watch with GPS, Make Answer Bluetooth Phone Call, ALEXA Built-in, Blood Oxygen Heart Rate Sleep Tracker, 5 ATM Water Resistant, Grey

I'm happy with this purchase

I love this watch, and it's been a great watch for the past couple years but now that I have upgraded my phone, it was connected to it, but I disconnected it because it kept acting funny and saying it wasn't connected. Now I can't get it to connect at all. So unfortunately I might have to buy a new watch unless anyone else has had this problem. I can't find where to post questions. I love every aspect of it with the sleep tracking and all of the other perks that come with it. It's easy to use, great value for the money, but when it only lasts 2 years, or until you get an upgraded phone, then it's definitely not worth the value. Fit is great and I got new bands for it. Appearance is beautiful and I love the bright display. Has so many different things on it that I love. But when I can't get it to work with my new phone, that kind of puts me at a standstill and I'm really disappointed.

I'd been using the Amazon Halo as I wanted a fitness tracker where I wasn't distracted by the screen. As I progressed, I found myself wanting to listen to music while exercising without my phone flapping around in my pocket. After researching watches that could play music to Bluetooth headphones without my phone, I landed here.I haven't used a "smart watch" before, but my wife has, so while my experience is second hand, I can say I'm fairly pleased.First off, the most important thing it seems to most people: The battery.I decided to break it and see what I could really expect.There are only two things I tweaked: 1) Turned off the "Always on watch face" as I didn't feel the need to have a watch face displayed if I wasn't looking at it, and 2) I scheduled the "turn face on when I lift my wrist" to be off from midnight to six am. I didn't think it necessary for my watch to turn on while I toss and turn. I had all of the heart-rate, sleep, etc. all turned on all the time. I used the watch to listen to music through my headphones for 4 different runs, and a little around the house. So I would say other than the "always on" I gave it quite a push. After 7 full days, my watch battery was still at 15%. My wife is using a Versa 3 and for the same time frame she was at 10%-minus the music playing, and she doesn't have constant monitoring turned on. Battery life is great.It's pretty responsive to swiping, but some of the integration in regards to the app are spotty. I'm on Verizon and none of my message alerts come through as I'm using the Message+ and the app only send notifications if I'm using the base SMS in Android. That's kind of a bummer. There's a decent amount of watch faces(30 or so) and you can find one you like.Getting music onto the watch isn't really straight forward. You have to use the app, which wants you to connect to the watch via wifi, but the watch has a unique wifi password that isn't in the manual, and really not easy to find within the app itself. I had to cause it to "error out" trying to connect about 5x before it showed me the wifi password for the watch.I've not taken it into the lake yet for paddle boarding, I'm waiting for my protective covers to get here. It has knocked up against a few things(stucco, door jams, fiddling around under the hood of my car) and not been scraped or scuffed so far. Protectors, replacement bands, and even charging stands are cheap and plentiful on Amazon, so dressing it up a bit won't be an issue.This again is my first experience, and maybe all smart watch apps are lacking in one way or another. My reports on sleeping and heart rate activity are all present and accessible, but not much to really dig deeper. For $130, I'm very pleased.

This watch is amazing. I’m in the tech biz and researched many smart watches. So impressed with this brand. It does everything I needed it to do. The calls through the watch sound brilliantly clear. Callers on the other end can’t even tell I’mTalking via the watch. The music app isn’t user friendly. Wish it worked with paid subscription of Amazon Music. Hey, what a great idea Amazon. Please create an Amazon Music app we could link. Downloading music is old school. Please get the recommended watch screen protectors. Thank you

Had this watch for a few months and it started dropping it's Bluetooth connection to the Zepp app. At first only once a week. Have had it a little over a year and I have to reconnect and reset the watch numerous times a day...like every hour or so. Too late to return so I asked Amazon if they would give me a trade in credit of something so I could get one that works. This is a known issue with the GTS 2 and all Amazfit watches. Google it. Amazon said no. They are willing to sell crap but not willing to back it. I just wanted $25 or so on a watch I spent 139.00 for so I could get a better model. Glad they said no. Did more research. Just don't buy the GTS 2 or any Amazfit watch. They are over priced and not worth the money. I got a good deal on a Samsung Watch. Worth every penny and it doesn't disconnect every hour.

I have 3 of the amazfit watch models (the Bip U, the Band 5, and the GTS 2), when they eventually integrate being able to respond back to text they will corner the marker with quality inexpensive watches that can do everything.My daily driver for 3-4 years has been the original GTS 2. I love it, having GPS on the watch was well as local music storage is great to have (similar to the Apple Watch). I liked the circular style of the GTR2 and the increased screen size. Virtually identical to my favorite GTS2 in every other way.Imagine to my surprise after uploading some music to the watch, barely being able to hear the music at all. The speaker is on the BOTTOM side of the watch, barely on the actual side. I have thin wrist, wearing in on my left wrist. The speaker is on the left side, the mic is on the right side near the buttons. Because of the natural bend of anyones wrist, one, if not both will get covered depending on your wear style.If music or speakerphone use is a big deal, please do not purchase. Not sure if the newer versions have fixed this, not sure why this 2022 ‘updated’ version didn’t move the speaker grill, but this single-handedly has gotten me to return this watch.Side note: my GTS2 has the speaker and mic grills closer to the top of the watch face versus the bottom like this one. No complaints or usage issues.Like I said, I liked the look and size of this one but for what I use the watch for not having the speaker in a decent spot without having to bend my wrist funny or lift the watch away from my skin is not worth it. Buyer Beware.

Good battery life m. Easy to use and wear. Best value for money
