[Review] Amazfit T-Rex 2

[Clipper]

That's it.
I started with a Mi Band 3, more or less good, when it started to fail I got the Mi Band 5, which I lost because the strap is a pain
I like them because they are small, but they have two "buts" for my taste: the strap and the screen size (at certain times (bike) I can't see an M)
I looked for:
Big screen, well... I lose the comfort of the Mi Band.
A GPS that works (I want to go back to Strava, mostly because I do a lot of cycling, even if it's just to go to work.. but I like to challenge myself)
That it has an option for tempered glass or is very "hard" for work reasons I need something resistant.
The call reception (mic/speaker) I can do without.
NFC... well, it wouldn't be bad, but it's not necessary (for that there's the mobile, which is more secure)
I'm looking at the T Rex 2.
What do you think?

Closed.
The T Rex 2 has fallen

Well, first impressions.
It's a bit bulky, not because of the diameter, which is fine, but because of the thickness.
Without configuring it too much, I like the option of preselecting sports activities, in my case cycling.
Once tested on the road, it disconnects the watch and gives me the information, speed (I think it's not very accurate)
Training time and several more parameters that can be configured (I have to put heart rate) which currently marks the level of effort.
The app is not bad.
It's practically the same as the one from xiaomi band.
There are a few predefined watch faces, although they are customizable (to a certain extent) and there are programs on the net to have more options.
The strap is comfortable and has two buckles, one fixed and the other mobile for the excess strap.
The flaw is that the outer part is mixed, smooth / rough, outer / inner.
And it will be prone to catching dust
The glass is "sunken" about 1.5 mm
So it's more or less protected.
Anyway, I ordered a protector.
I was thinking of buying the case cover, but seeing the size of the box, it's almost better not to.
In general and for now, I'm happy with the purchase.
For what it's worth, they could have put the NFC chip and micro and speaker, since more than one cheap one has it for less money.

I edit the title to make it easier to find.

It was clear that for those uses, a band was lacking and you needed something more focused on sports.

@fassou
Thanks
My band is not bad,
But it is scarce in functions.
And obviously the T Rex 2 is worth three times more.
Does it pay off?
For me yes and no.
A my band. Better configured would be a better option.
But as it is not the case...
The T Rex 2 wins
It looks more like a watch day by day,
My band is more "discreet"
In a moment I will fix it

If in a case you delete the first post.
Tomorrow I will upload photos

P.d this post once done you delete it also

@clipper Lo que necesites

If you want to create a completely new post and we delete this one, no problem.

If you prefer to edit, no problem either

The important thing is the first-hand information, which can always be useful to someone else.

Salu2!

The truth is that the band is very good if you want the basics with robustness and discretion, but just having a bigger screen is already attractive, and if you can configure it well to make it very useful even more so, not to mention independent functions. There are very interesting possibilities with more advanced watches but often one doesn't know very well how it works in depth.

I will still take my time to change it, but I am interested in the topic, and especially in the less delicate ones.
