–Purchased this watch at first sale price of 6999. Writing this review after 2 days of use.The watch is absolutely premium. The smartwatch is very light and comfortable as mentioned 19gms only. The watch strap are very soft,made of premium quality silicon and has interpolation system hence gives a secure fit but the buckle is made of plastic instead of metal.

–It has 2.5d curved and completely flat display, half metal body and button which gives it a premium look. The display is anti fingerprint and is scratch resistant.The watch will be suitable only on small and moderate sizes of wrists otherwise would look of small size.

–The watch has squarish 1.65 inch amoled display with aod support and 309ppi so all texts are really crisp and readable.The bezels are equal on all sides and completely invisible with black watchface. Also you can set your own watch under the settings of customisable background in watchface store in zepp app.

–It comes with new Zepp OS 1.0 which is well optimised and the animations and details dont make it a boring fitness watch.The watch has ambient light sensor which responds well and screen is visible even in harsh sunlight. It has 5 satellites connection which locks position outdoors within few seconds.The watch has a rotor motor which gives good haptic feedback. It also has built in alexa which can answer simple questions via text and set alarms, reminders,timers.

–The watch has 49 watchfaces only right now which are extremely less at this price point and only 7-8 of them look good. Watchfaces synchronize within 10seconds.

–There is 24/7 heart rate,blood oxygen and stress monitoring. The watch gives really accurate measurements and is quite dependable for health readings,this is probably due to the latest biotracker-ppg 3.0 sensor which is being used in this watch. (Note:Sp02 works only when you wear the watch 2cm upwards from the wrist). It also has sleep breathing quality measurement. The sleep data too is very accurate and gives data for light sleep, deep sleep, REM,awake time in graph and detailed format.

–The watch has 120+ sports modes, gives very detailed health data,graphs, auto detects sports modes and has virtual pacer, cadence assistant,everything you would ever need for.You will be able to view all the data in watch itself(workout map,graphs,sleep data,settings). It also has training efficiency which tells you training load, vo2 max and recovery time.

–The best part are the installable apps from the appstore in zepp app like maps(not google maps) calculator(not scientific calculator), bmi, watch storage space, sos flashlight and water time reminder and many more. It has all the basic features like the alarm,calendar(syncs to phone’s calender),to-dos,sun and moon,compass,music controller,world clock,stopwatch,countdown,breathe,find my phone,pomodoro timer,camera remote. It comes with new smart alarm feature which wakes you up during light sleep. It has reply to call notifications but misses out on the reply to social media messages.

–It has 200mb of storage space of which 100mb is used by system itself and other 100mb is free for installing apps and watchfaces(no music storage available). (Note: The more data you store in watch lesser free storage will be available in the watch). For incoming messages it has support for chosen emojis only not all of them, also it does not have support for hindi text messages. It also has password lock from 0-9 for privacy. It will have new features over time and new apps to install in app store which is good.

–Finally the watch charges in 2hrs and drops 5% battery everyday on normal usage, about 8% with aod on, 13% on moderate usage and 20% on heavy usage of gps,aod on,24/7 health tracking and other apps usage(extra 3% for tracking sleep data).

FINAL DECISION:
If you are looking for premium fitness watch with all health sensors ,accuracy, elegant and formal looking watch, amazing user interface with possible future software upgrades and also if you are not a bluetooth calling person
then buy the gts 4 mini during the sale with some 10% discount with cards offer.

Don’t change your decision and go looking for other useless bluetooth calling, in built games watches in this price segment (Fireb****, Noi**). This smartwatch is really good, you won’t regret purchasing this one.

Experience after 9months:
Working Great. Everything is working including GPS, health tracking and other features mentioned in review.

Update: Do not buy GTR Mini, it’s not worth the price tag of 10,999/-. Gts 4 Mini is much better than the GTR Mini.

Give Like 👍 if this helps.

I have been using it for more than 3 months and I really liked it in all the aspects. Battery life, screen quality, accuracy… Are good. I can recommend it.

Value buy

A lot has been written about the watch but IMO, the one feature of the watch that I really loved is not a feature of the watch itself, but of the strap. Unlike conventional straps, this does not have a loop to tuck in the strap after the buckle. The loop is something that I have always struggled with to keep in place and the “tucking in” of the strap of this watch is such a relief for me.
