Amazfit T-Rex 3 excels in water sports tracking
An adventure in Hawaii led to a review of the Amazfit T-Rex 3 smartwatch. This device is preferred over more expensive options like the Apple Watch Ultra 2 for water sports. The Amazfit T-Rex 3 costs about $279, often discounted further. It features a large AMOLED touchscreen, four buttons, and is great for tracking various activities, including surfing and snorkeling. With robust specs like dual-band GPS, it's well-suited for water sports. During the Hawaii trip, the T-Rex 3 kept track of surfing and snorkeling activities. It provided metrics like attempts at surfing and time spent in the water. However, some recorded data, like the longest surfing distance, was not accurate. The T-Rex 3 has 100 meters of water resistance, making it ideal for various water activities. Many competitors offer less resistance, limiting their usability for intense water sports. Unique to the T-Rex 3 is its support for many water-related activities, from snorkeling to jet skiing. In comparison, the Apple Watch Ultra 2 only tracks swimming. The watch's screen is readable underwater, which was a big plus. Its battery life is impressive, lasting over 18 days without needing a charge. The comfortable strap is also a highlight, making it suitable for vigorous activities like surfing. Overall, the Amazfit T-Rex 3 stands out in features and price, proving to be a solid choice for those who enjoy water sports.
