I've really liked mine. I've had it for a little over a week. I'm pretty intensive with it and have heart rate at yever minute, so I've had to charge it twice. (I'm charging it at like 30%, just throwing it on when I go to the. shower)
Looks but it seems that the heart rate unit is the old have that is on the T Rex 2 and GTR 3. According to Amazfit the GTR 4 is different and is 30% more accurate? Can you check this?
This is not available in our country Philippines. Glad it is not. I guess it's just expensive and it would be wiser buying a Garmin or a Coros. Falcon and the T-rex watches needs more refinement. 🤔What do you think?
All that huge price is because of that build quality. Software wise it's the same as previous. So I'm not spending that much amount on build quality. I'm also pretty doubtful about the accuracy of the sensors
The accuracy is still be tested. I have been using GPS for nearly seven hours straight, with AOD & raise to wake enabled, slept it last night, and battler is at 47% 👍🏻
I am quite enjoying the silver/titanium one on my right wrist. I am comparing it to the Samsung Galaxy Watch5 Pro. Going on Day 3 wearing both watches.
Nice of you to notice and thanks for watching my videos. It is called the reMarkable 2 e-ink tablet. Here's my playlist about the tablet: ru-vid.com/group/PL14X2qklpxc-wZkGvlHDIri-CCen6NOHu
Just a T-Rex 2,with premium build quality.Titanium body and sapphire glass,the sensors are the same as the simple T-Rex 2, plus the ability to pair,an external heart rate belt.For that kind of money,Garmin fenix 7 or the forerunner 955 for me are better options!
@@PeterHerget I was expecting more,from this watch.But it disappointed me,I live in Europe and the price is about 600 euros/600 usd.For this prince range,you can find better alternatives.Even the Garmin Fenix 6 series,is way better than the Falcon.The sensors,the garmin app,.I don't care so much for the amoled touch screen.The Falcon is T-Rex 2,in a premium body!
The only differences I am seeing thus far are the following: 1. sapphire glass screen 2. titanium case 3. longer battery life 4. coaching 5. premium sleep options for a monthly subscription fee 6. improved Heart-Rate tracking 7. GPS signal is acquired more quickly, and GPS tracking appears to be slightly more accurate 8. a few new watches faces 9. different watchband And that is about it. So, yes, it is more like an Amazfit T-Rex version 2.700339239 with a sapphire glass and a watch case & band.
@@caesarroe1283 Yeah, it is quite similar to the T-Rex 2 and has less functionality than the Amazfit Balance or the Cheetah Pro, even though the Falcon cost me $500.00. And for some reason, nope, Amazfit has yet to release a Falcon 2 version...
The Falcon has a sapphire glass screen and overall has a better design than the T-Tex 2. As for the screen specifications, I have yet to compare the two wearables.
Me too and then… this one caught my attention. There are several improvements & I will discuss this during my next video 😎 Thanks for the comment, John 👍🏻
I get the notification of a phone call, and then yes, I need to grab my smartphone. It does have a speaker, kinda a, but not a loud enough speaker for a Bluetooth phone call, sorry. Perhaps, the Falcon 2.0 will come with true phone functionality. If you are determined to have that phone call functionality, yeah... I would recommend the following: 1. Apple Watch Ultra (it ships with LTE) 2. Samsung Galaxy Watch3 LTE, Watch4 LTE, or the Watch5 Pro with LTE All of other smartwatches I have tried that claim to have "phone call features" are not worth a human's time.
Thank you Rando. I am just wrapping up Day Two with the Falcon and I can say that the changes are more on the outside than with the software or internal hardware. The battery life is fantastic. I spend the day at an amusement park here in Utah called, Lagoon, and tracked the entire day as a walking workout using GPS, and doing laps every time we waiting in line at a ride. I wore the Amazfit Falcon on my left wrist and the Garmin Venu 2 Plus, on my right. The battery life of the Falcon is only down to 38% after 12 hours of AOD and a little over 8 hours of GPS usage - not too shabby at tall. I need to dive into the workout records and do math. It is now 22:19 Mountain Time, too late for that, going to bed. I plan to have another video either on Sunday or Monday morning regarding some accuracy tests for the Falcon compared to Apple & Garmin.
Just checked and watched their website, and others, nope, it did not appear the Amazfit placed their new Falcon watch on sale for Black Friday. We shall see what happens on Cyber Monday...
in the end I also ordered from aliexpress, it will arrive in 3 weeks, I will pay 19 percent VAT because I am from the European Union, I bought it because it is beautiful and I really wanted to have it. My question is, can you pay at the store with the watch, does it have NFC?
I still have the Amazfit Falcon watch and I am wearing it right now and wore it several times this week. What aspect of timepiece performance are you interested about? 1. running 2. swimming 3. indoor row machine 4. treadmill 5. weight lighting 6. walking 7. hiking 8. pickle-ball 9. table tennis
@@PeterHerget more just general, really like the watch but more of how it performed with everyday things, music/texts and calls. i do the odd hike and surf so no athlete by any means but i do love a tough watch and desperatly need an upgrade from my 3 year old samsung watch
Hi Peter, I bought a Amazfit Ultra but have problems to connect any speed or cadence sensors to it. Only an external BT Garmin will be found in BT settings. Do you know if any Amazfit (e.g. Falcon) is able to connect with bicycle sensors like a Garmin watch? Regards and thanks for your effort for such kind of videos... really helpful. Jog
I have the Amazfit Falcon and have had many issues connecting external Bluetooth gadgets. The Bluetooth hardware that Amazfit makes their watches with is not the great of quality. I tried to use the heart-rate broadcasting from an Amazfit T-Rex 2 and the Falcon to my indoor row machine and both Amazfit wearables failed. I tried a $200 Garmin watch and it connected 97% of the time. I feel sad that your new ULTRA is not ultra enough and I recommend returning it for a different watch to see if that fixed the issues.
@@PeterHerget thanks so much...exactly that was my idea. Evtl. I will buy a Epix this worked 100% thanks a lot for your helping response and many greetings from Germany 😉
You are welcome and hello to the lovely country of Germany! On any given day, yeah, I would take a $150 Garmin watch over anything Amazfit is selling in the year 2023. Garmin wearables are more expensive than most Amazfit watches; however, Garmin gives you, and me, the consumers the following: 1. a more refined watch 2. better customer support 3. decades of watch making experience 4. more refined workout tracking 5. better workout feedback 6. better workout coaching 7. better built watches 8. a far better ecosystem 9. Garmin watches have a longer shelf-life & stronger durability; though, the new Falcon is the right approach, just not worth $500.00
From Google Translate: "Does it support wireless charging or can it not be charged without a native cable ??" The Amazfit Falcon uses a proprietary charging cable, USB-A to a plug that plugs into the back of the smartwatch. Nope, the Falcon does not support any wireless charging at this time. I truly wish it did for that would be awesome if Amazfit started support Qi Wireless Charging technology like Samsung and other smartwatch organizations...
Yeah, basically, the Amazfit Falcon has a more premium design with the fancier watch case/bezel, they added a sapphire screen, took away the ugly logo and name plate, moved the Amazfit logo the side, and the buttons feel slightly different. I would say the buttons are tad higher quality. As for the functionality and features of the Falcon, well... they appear to be nearly identical to the Amazfit T-Rex 2.
Добрый день. Подскажите пожалуйста в этих часах есть термометр? У нас в Казахстане их ещё нет в продаже. Датчик температуры мне нужен чтоб при плавание видеть температуру воды.
Yes, Garmin can be expensive. I'll be selling some gadgets I no longer need for testing later this month. I'll post a link on my channel under the "Community" tab. Since RU-vid helped me pay for these wearables, yes, they will be selling for less than 50% below retail - hope this helps 😀 Happy Holidays! Счастливых праздников
Sorry, I don't understand your question? I'll take a gamble... 1. there is no microphone on the Amazfit Falcon 2. there is no Assistant either, no Google, Bixby, Siri, or Alexa 3. there is no integration with the smartphone, i.e., if the smartphone is placed into DND (do-not disturb) mode the watch does not go into DND and vice versa 4. there is a tiny, small, minute amount of app within the Amazfit Store 5. Spotify doesn't function on the Falcon and music controls are wonky 6. yes, there is some A.I., The Amazfit Falcon debuts the new AI-powered Zepp Coach™, I going to use that feature this weekend
I succeeded, it doesn't want to create an account with yahoo mail, it wants with gmail, then it updates itself for 1 hour, on the phone the application is in Romanian and on the watch in English
Sorry, Giva, there is a temperature gage in terms of barometric pressure, but there is not body temperature readings as of yet. And without the Internet, nope, I cannot check the weather. I have not been on any long hikes or camping trips, so I don't know how accurate the barometric pressure sensors are on the Falcon. I hope to compare them soon to the storm sensors on a Garmin watch and using my smartphone.
@@PeterHerget I was referring to topo and street maps... for the price amazfit wants for the falcon I would have expected them to be somewhat included.... FYI the Garmin 955 is about the same price and it does come with full mapping...
Thank you for the comment in Russian & according to Google you asked, "the owners, tell me how long they hold a charge, how often do they need to be put on charge, from your experience?" This Amazfit Falcon easily lasted me two weeks using the tilt-wake screen on feature. With AOD (always-on display), the watch battery still lasted a solid three to five today. Battery life gets used a lot by: 1. GPS workouts 2. notifications and buzzed from the connected smartphone alerts 3. using the watch and having the screen on 4. screen-brightness settings I think even with high usage, several GPS workouts, and truly using the Amazfit Falcon, yes, it should last you a sold five days.
I don't see why not. I get notifications for my text messages and Facebook Messenger. You can choose the apps you want notifications from inside the ZEPP app. I plan to demonstrate this on my next Amazfit Falcon video for you and a few 1,000 other folks that probably have the same question.
I'll stick with my t rex 2. Don't wanna pay double the price for a little more quality and prestige. I mean the T Rex 2 is already indestructible. And the killer argument, the T-Rex 2's battery lasts twice as long as that of this poser watch. capice?
Great choice. I only upgraded from the T-Rex 2 to the Falcon for my RU-vid Channel & the other Social Media Platforms (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and "The Man with Two Watches Channel). Per your battery life comment of the T-Rex 2 being longer than the Falcon, sorry Mustafa K., but I don't believe your correct.
I have seen this happen with many so called, "smart watches." There are many smartphones, which one is paired with your Amazfit Falcon? Have you had any other Bluetooth issues?
@@PeterHerget i have bluetooth on,now, paired automatically but after 30 minutes i have smartphone unihertz jelly 2 the smallest phone 3 inch android 11
Ah, I have read about the Jelly 2 smartphone and your phone may the issue, and not the Amazfit Falcon. I had one or two issues of Bluetooth connectivity while wearing the Falcon and the T-Rex 2, but that was over a seven-month period. Over the past three months, nope, no issues. I would recommend contacting Jelly or Amazfit Support Team to see if the Amazfit is compatible with the Jelly smartphone - best of luck🤞
These are the heart rate settings: 1 minute 5 minute interval checks 10 min. 30 min. Off - this could save some battery life if you only checked your HR stats manually now and again. I tried the 5 minute setting for about two days and the battery life was not extended that much.
@@PeterHerget I've had it for about 4 months, it's good, the battery lasts a long time, about a month with little use, up to 10 days, with a lot of use, I have it day and night, the only thing is that they have to set the heart rate sensor continuously, then it's perfect
You want me to get skin cancer, what? The Falcon does quite well under the sun if you watch a few more video or click on over to my other channel, "The Man with Two Watches."
The most expensive Amazfit watch is $500 USD. If you click over to Garmin... $2,500.00, sorry, I am confused by the math logic. Would you be so kind to explain?
Nope, you can see the call coming in and answer or decline the call, but you would need to actually talk on the connected smartphone. Phones calls cannot be communicated directly through the watch for it lacks an LTE chip and a phone #
