The differences end there On paper, the two wearables are competitive in terms of features Normally, we would have gone hands-on with the smartwatches announced during CES, but Amazfit kindly provided us with key specs of the GT2 and GTS 2e based on a virtual version of the show

The Amazfit GTR and GTS 2e feature the company's wellness features, including 24/7 heart rate monitoring and the PAI™ health rating system that assigns users a health score based on comprehensive health data SpO2 monitoring, the centerpiece of the Apple Watch Series 6 upgrade, is also included in both models, highlighting real-time respiratory health status

As smartwatch tools, the Amazfit GTR and GTS 2e offer notifications, reminders, timers, and an improved haptic system; since few companies have been able to achieve haptics as smooth as the Apple Watch, Amazfit's new technology is It will be interesting to see what Amazfit achieves

Another claim we need to test is the 45-day battery life of the Amazfit GTR and GTS 2e Some activities and display settings will cut into this impressive stamina, but Amazfit is generally good at making long-lasting smartwatches
