I've had my GTR 3 Pro for about two weeks. This is my first ever smart watch or fitness tracker, I'm not an athlete, and so far I'm very happy with this watch. I can't imagine needing more workout options or settings or features... too many to list and review here. I use the Android Zepp app on my Samsung phone and there's a lot of information in the app and it's pretty intuitive to me; you use the phone app do most of the watch settings and see the super-detailed health and workout data, just make sure to keep the app running all the time. That means now your phone's bluetooth is always on, something new to me but I suppose not for a lot of people. If you're away from your phone, it all syncronizes the next time the watch and phone connect.
The battery and price were my main reasons for choosing this watch (and it's round, like a watch should be). The battery is no joke: I think the manufacturer promises around 12 days, and after nine days it was at 14%. I logged a workout each day, made and answered a few phone calls, slept overnight with it on once, replied to texts, kept it connected to the phone, never turned it off, left most if not all of the default settings (screen NOT always on, heart rate every 10 minutes), and played with it a lot. No doubt results will vary. Just a couple hours to re-charge. I've read about high-brow ($$$) watches being charged once or even twice a day... that's a non-starter for me. I keep the big and responsive screen at about 15% brightness but it is on auto-brightness so you can see it out in the sun.
GPS seems accurate after looking at the maps of my walks in the app... start an outside workout, tap start and give it 15 seconds or so to catch the GPS signal, the phone vibrates and you're off. Works everytime. I pretty much take the watch's word for it as far as heart rate, steps, calories and the rest of the fitness and health features. I have nothing to compare it to so works for me. The description says includes wifi but it isn't anything you can use like you might think or turn on or off as you please... might just be for transferring music to the watch.
With just the companion Zepp app on your phone, you can make and answer phone calls with the watch's built-in microphone and speaker. And you can reply to text messages either with an emoji or from a selection of pre-set responses that you can edit or add to (you make/edit these using the Zepp app on your phone, they're syncronized to the watch, and the responses appear on your watch when you tap reply to a text). Works great. You can't create a text with the watch (maybe thru Alexa, not sure). There's a little app store in the Zepp phone app (maybe 20 apps), where you can download small apps to the watch (stocks, calculator, etc.).
I am an Alexa newbie but it also works fine. Set-up is a bit clunky using the manual and Zepp app but after going through the process a couple times it works. We don't have anything else Alexa in the house so still figuring out what to do with her besides weather, lists, etc.
I'm still using the supplied brown band... not sure if it's really leather but it is comfy and looks good. I was worried most about the large size of the watch with my skinny wrists, but it looks ok even with a separate cover that adds a couple mm to the overall size. I had a cover over the whole watch before I ever turned it on, so I can't comment on scratch resistance and such. I immediately cover all my devices and screens and there are several protection options on Amazon. By the way it can be worn on the right wrist, too, by swapping the band around and settings to flip the screen and buttons. Easy peezy.
I've loaded over 200 MP3s to the watch and have over 1G memory left. It connects perfectly to my cheap bluetooth ear buds and so far stays connected.
The watch comes with about five or six watch faces pre-installed, but through the Zepp app on your phone you can download more. A lot of them cost a couple bucks but I can't count the free ones. Loading a new face onto your watch takes a couple of taps and it's installed and active on your watch. I've downloaded one of the several separate phone apps just for Amazfit faces and it offers hundreds more for free and works great. I can't imagine anyone wanting more free watch faces, they just don't all come pre-installed on the watch. Nor should they, taking up memory space. Delete and download new faces as you feel the need for change.
On the negative side I have yet to get the offline voice commands to do anything. These are built-in voice commands that let you speak to open apps and control some watch features. They are separate from talking to Alexa, which works fine for me. I haven't really sought a solution yet because it's just too easy to get to everything on the watch by swiping or rotating the crown button. The Zepp app does use a good chunk of phone memory... whenever I check it is using between 600 and 800MB of internal storage. Could be alot for some phones and I've no idea if the app can be moved to external phone storage. Hopefully it can.
I recommend keeping an open mind when reading some of the negative reviews based on one or two features out of the 50 things the watch does (like 1-star reviews because the customer doesn't like having to use the rotating crown to navigate the display, or couldn't get an old watch's face on this new watch, or too hard to install watch faces (no... it's super easy), or one feature it doesn't even advertise it can do but it "should" do... I don't understand one-star reviews like that). Overall it's a great smart watch value with a long list of useful features.
UPDATE
After I had the watch for weeks I learned there are watchfaces with tap-able/shortcut spots on them, that'll take you directly to different apps in the watch... steps, weather, heart, alarms, etc.
And, if you tap on the city name in the weather app you can select other cities that are in the weather section of the Zepp app on your phone. I did that accidentally one day. I had no idea.
