CES 2020: Amazfit T-Rex Rugged Smartwatch Launched
Alongside the newAmazfit HomeStudio and Amazfit AirRun treadmills, and theAmazfit ZenBuds and PowerBuds, the Huami owned brand also unveiled its much leaked smartwatch called the Amazfit T-Rex atCES 2020. If the name wasn’t enough of a hint, the watch is a rugged smartwatch that meets the military standard quality test regulations (MIL-STD-810G).
The watch has a polymer body and adesign that looks a lot like Casio’s G-Shock watches; Amazfit says that it’s using ink-filling technology, along with protective bumpers on the raised bezel outside to ensure the robustness of the smartwatch. Moreover, the company says that theT-Rex can withstand extreme temperatures, along with exposure to salt, alkali, damp, or any other challenging outdoor conditions. It can also apparentlysurvive for two hours under temperature changes from -40 to 70 degrees celsius.
The Amazfit T-Rex features a1.3-inch AMOLED displaywith a resolution of 360×360 pixels, which isn’t the highest we’ve seen on a smartwatch with a screen this size (theXiaomi Watch Color, for example has 454×454 pixels in its 1.39-inch AMOLED screen). The watch also has14 fitness modes, and can track activities including mountain climbing, trail running and more.It’s also water resistant up to 5ATM (~50 meters).
Other than that, the Amazfit T-Rex also has aPPG sensor that can track heart-rateand provide alerts based on the information it gathers, a3-axis gyroscope, a geomagnetic sensor, and an ambient light sensorpacked inside.
Powering all of the watch’s features is a390mAh batterythat Amazfit’s testing suggests will last for 20 days, and up to 66 days in basic watch mode.
The Amazfit T-Rex will be available later this month for a suggested retail price of $139.99 (~₹9,900).
