The lineup starts from $180 in the U.S.

Amazfit has refreshed its wearables lineup with the launch of three new fitness-focused smartwatches to challenge the best Android watches on the market.

The Amazfit GTR 3 smartwatch features a 1.39-inch AMOLED display with a bezel-less design and a durable case made from aircraft-grade aluminum alloy. It is equipped with a 450mAh battery, which is claimed to be capable of delivering up to 21 days of usage on a single charge.

The Amazfit GTR 2 successor offers a Battery Saver Mode as well, which should help you get even longer battery life.

The Amazfit GTR 3 Pro has a larger 1.45-inch AMOLED display with 300ppi pixel density and a screen-to-body ratio of 70.6%. Thanks to the classic navigation crown, users can easily cycle through the 150+ built-in sports modes. The watch packs a 450mAh battery, which can provide up to 12 days of battery life on a single charge. It also comes with 2.3GB of onboard storage for offline music playback.

Amazfit's GTS 3 has a 1.75-inch square AMOLED display with a 341ppi pixel density and a 72.4% screen-to-body ratio. While its shape "mirrors a smartphone," its feature-set is largely identical to the GTR 3.

All three watches run Amazfit's Zepp OS with numerous new fitness and lifestyle features. The OS lets you easily sync your health data with popular platforms such as Apple Health and Google Fit. You'll also be able to sync and share sports data using apps like Strava, Relive, Runkeeper, and TrainingPeaks.

They also have a 6PD (photodiodes) BioTracker PPG 3.0 sensor, which can measure four important health metrics: heart rate, blood-oxygen, stress levels, and breathing rate, in just 45 seconds. Other key highlights include advanced sleep tracking, menstrual cycle tracking, Alexa support, built-in GPS, Bluetooth remote camera control, and over 150 customizable watch faces.

The new Amazfit GTR 3 and GTS 3 watches start from $180, while the GTR 3 Pro is available from $230 via the Amazfit store.

More posts by this contributor What Studying Students Teaches Us About Great Apps I’ll admit it: When it comes to food, I’m lazy. There are dozens of great dining options within a few blocks of my home, yet I still end up ordering food through delivery apps four or five times per week. With the growing coronavirus pandemic closing restaurants and consumers self-isolating, it is likely we will see a spike in food delivery much like the 20% jump China reported during the peak of its crisis. With the food delivery sector rocketing toward a projected $365 billion by the end of the decade, I’m clearly not the only one turning to delivery apps even before the pandemic hit. Thanks to technology (and VC funding) we can get a ri

Slack’s new integration deal with AWS could also be about tweaking Microsoft

Slack and Amazon announced a big integration late yesterday afternoon. As part of the deal, Slack will use Amazon Chime for its call feature, while reiterating its commitment to use AWS as its preferred cloud provider to run its infrastructure. At the same time, AWS has agreed to use Slack for internal communications. Make no mistake, this is a big deal as the SaaS communications tool increases its ties with AWS, but this agreement could also be about slighting Microsoft and its rival Teams product by making a deal with a cloud rival. In the past Slack CEO Stewart Butterfield has had choice words for Microsoft saying the Redmond technology giant sees his company as an “existential threat.” Whether that’s true or not — Teams is but one piece of a huge technology company — it’s impossible not to look at the deal in this context. Aligning more deeply with AWS sends a message to Microsoft, whose Azure infrastructure services compete with AWS. Butterfield didn’t say that of course
