I love this watch. I hunt, fish, operate a farm, run, hike, walk, calisthenics, etc. I used to be hyper-fit. Now, I'm retired from that life, but still very active and steeped in all outdoor conditions. I need a watch I don't have to worry about when outside. And I want that battery to last at least a week. The stats are fun and good-enough accurate and ten times more plentiful than anyone needs. Even serious athletes. This watch is awesome. Military guys. I used to be a combat guy in the US Army. The battery is fantastic, but I might look at the Luminox or some such, for that purpose. I'd prefer a battery that lasts one or two months for that use case (I occasionally went two months without access to a power outlet in the Army).

@@madstrik3r And a year later, I respond. Sorry. My battery lasts about 10 days. I have the display scheduled for 9am to 6pm and and the lift wrist viewing schedule from 8am to 9pm. I think the difference is that after 6pm notifications and random things won't trigger my watch to light up. That lit screen is a huge battery drain, just like with your phone. GPS? Dunno. I don't think that I ever set anything specific for that.

For anyone considering this watch it has now been updated to be able to use a Heart rate strap for anybody that wants that feature. I have the first t-rex that I bought on sale when this one came out and have been really impressed with it overall, I am quite tempted to upgrade to the second myself as its pretty hard to beat in terms of value!

Thanks for the review. :) I´m looking to replace my Suunto 7 as battery life has become an issue on that watch. My concern - choosing now between a Garmin Fenix 6 X Pro or this Amazfit T-Rex 2 - is that the T-Rex 2 really has an attractive pricetag and I really like what I see in terms of the gorgeous display etc - but will it last? I used to have a Garmin Fenix 3 and that was really built like a tank and lasted me for years and years. This T-Rex 2 is actually the first watch i´ve looked seriously at from Amazfit - so the brand itself is a new and unknown factor for me as well. And I´m also thinking more in terms of long time usage - will the brand stick around? Will the app and firmware improve? It´s not like I´m a garmin fanatic (hence the Suunto 7) :D but I know they are reliable and the brand has been there for ever. Well...I´m on the fence but I like everything you´ve shown me about the T-rex 2 except the maps...

I'm not 100% sure about functioning of trex2, but in my amazfit gts 3 there is two wrist turning modes one is fast and another is slow. I personally prefer slower one, because it doesn't activate immediately with every slight wrist turn eating battery life significantly. But yes, it is a bit slow for my taste as well.

I'm revisiting the T-rex 2 after dealing with Fenix 7 & FR 955 bugs that fix one problem only to add instability elsewhere. The T-rex 2 gets close to most of what Garmin offers at a quarter (or less) of the price of Garmin's upper tier watches. If Garmin stabilized their software by reducing weird fragmented software versions to their numerous offerings (like apple does) - I would gladly pay the premium money to Garmin. However, after the last few updates on the T-rex 2 that include a climb pro knockoff, breadcrumb nav, external bluetooth HR sensor connection, etc I'm willing return my buggy Garmins. In the end, tech watches have a short service life and depreciate quickly after purchase. I would rather spend less on a tech sport watch that will deliver the majority of what I want then either save or spend the remainder towards a something more timeless, like a mechanical watch.
