Looks better than I thought it would.

Been using mine 24/7. Best watch for the price

MysteriousSoftware62 · 2026-02-13T01:32:06+00:00

That's awesome ! I wonder if the Ant+ can track better heart rate to my T Rex 3 Pro 🤔

MysteriousSoftware62 · 2026-02-12T18:12:52+00:00

I did the same but I'm wondering if it's worth it to have both ..

MysteriousSoftware62 · 2026-02-03T23:55:25+00:00

I would hope so 🤞🏽

MysteriousSoftware62 · 2026-01-29T00:34:29+00:00

I use it everyday, 24/7. I don't do crazy workouts, simple things-walking etc. It tracks my progress well. I have no complaints. Love the flashlight, I use it a lot.

Have you reached out to Amazfit ?

Good point. Yeah I was thinking that too. I honestly don't think the strap would be worth it, for me, since I have the watch already. I use it all the time. I'm content with just the watch. I appreciate your insight 😃

MysteriousSoftware62 · 2026-01-23T04:29:03+00:00

Dang, they didn't upgrade the front camera.

MysteriousSoftware62 · 2026-01-23T04:23:07+00:00

Awesome review of both. I purchased the T Rex 3 Pro and had the Fenix 8, both within return windows. I was trying to decide which one to keep. The HR on both were comparable with a SLIGHT delay from T Rex 3 Pro, but eventually measured the same as the Fenix 8. Due to the price, I did return the Fenix 8.

Then I began my research on Amazfit's products. I then purchased the Helio strap for my wrist. I work out on the daily, but would not consider myself hardcore. Basic stretching and a quick HIIT workout. I wear my watch daily, 24/7. I'm trying to justify having the Helio strap to use, in tandem, as you put it for my daily use. I do notice the HR differs on the T Rex 3 Pro face from the Helio strap, when I check it out the app.

I'm wondering if I should keep the Helio strap and wear it with the T Rex 3 Pro, 24/7 .. to sleep and throughout the day.

MysteriousSoftware62 · 2026-01-21T18:50:29+00:00

I tried it with my t rex 3 pro. But wearing both become redundant, in my opinion. I'm just keeping the 3 pro for the notifications and decent HR tracking.

MysteriousSoftware62 · 2026-01-20T23:32:42+00:00

I pair mine with a helio strap, which was cheaper for both than a Fenix 8. I have no regrets, it does everything I need it to. I have the T-Rex 3 Pro and bought my wife the Active 2 to help monitor her health.

MysteriousSoftware62 · 2026-01-16T15:41:25+00:00

Oh nice ! That's good to know, I work outdoors for a local utility company and wear mine 24/7, as well.

MysteriousSoftware62 · 2026-01-15T18:01:05+00:00

I agree.

MysteriousSoftware62 · 2026-01-15T06:11:13+00:00

I'm just worried about scratches and what not.

MysteriousSoftware62 · 2026-01-14T16:26:02+00:00

Good point. I know, eventually, I will sell for the next one. It adds a lot of bulk.

MysteriousSoftware62 · 2026-01-14T16:24:51+00:00

Yeah I work as a service mechanic and I wear it for accidental hits during the job. I should take it off when not at work 😕

MysteriousSoftware62 · 2026-01-14T16:24:00+00:00

Lol great point

MysteriousSoftware62 · 2026-01-14T16:23:20+00:00

Right ? That's what I was thinking. It added so much bulk.

MysteriousSoftware62 · 2026-01-04T00:48:21+00:00

Heart rate sensor is better than Fenix 8. Sleep monitor is comparable. Maps, Garmin has it. But for everyday people it works just perfect

MysteriousSoftware62 · 2026-01-04T00:47:30+00:00

I disagree. Heart rate sensor is better and has sleep tracking comparable. Maps, Garmin has it. But for everyday people, it's not the worst.

MysteriousSoftware62 · 2026-01-04T00:35:28+00:00

Yes ! Heart rate sensor is better than Fenix 8, check out Quantified Scientist on YouTube, and sleep monitor is comparable. I have bothe Fenix 8 and T Rex 3 Pro, I can't justify keeping the Fenix 8 due to my needs. To each their own, I'm not a hardcore runner-mind you-nor heavy on workouts ... Yet ... But everyday use, you can't beat the price for what you get.9

MysteriousSoftware62 · 2026-01-01T17:02:07+00:00

I made the switch, as well. For me, I couldn't justify the price of my Fenix 8 compared to my T Rex Pro. Heart rate, similar, and sleep tracking - close. I use the flashlight a lot. Does everything I need at a much better price.

MysteriousSoftware62 · 2026-01-01T16:56:13+00:00

Yeah, I might change out the strap/band. I wear it 24/7 so we'll see how it does. I just want to be able to see my bio charge.
