What exactly is the optimal size for the display of your so-called smartwatch? The response will, of course, be determined by the preferences of the user. In recent times, though, we have observed that displays on smartwatches of all price ranges are getting larger. Because of its 1.75-inch display, the most recent iteration of the Amazfit GTS, model 4, is a good illustration of this. This larger display comes with both benefits and drawbacks for users.
When you take a quick look at the screen, having a larger screen certainly makes it possible to see more information. On the other hand, folks who have thin wrists may not appear as attractive in certain watches with large displays. In addition to this, wearing them is not necessarily a pleasant experience. The Amazfit GTS 4, on the other hand, makes an effort to provide a larger screen while also seeming fashionable and having a lower overall weight.

Amazfit GTS 4 review: Design
You can get the Amazfit GTS 4 in Infinity Black, Rosebud Pink, Misty White, or Autumn Brown. The first three have 20mm silicone straps, and the last one is made of nylon. All of the straps have a quick-release button, so you can switch to a different one whenever you want.
My review unit was Misty White, and the finish is beautiful all around. The strap goes well with the gold aluminium body, which makes the watch look and feel high-end. You can buy this smartwatch from its official website.
Amazfit GTS 4 review: Health & Fitness Tracking
The Amazfit GTS 4 can track your health in the same ways you’d expect from a fitness tracker that looks like a watch. There is hardware that can track your location, how active you are, your heart rate, your SpO2, and how you sleep. But, just like the software, the fitness features of the watch don’t have a clear purpose.
When you open the Workout app on the GTS 4, shortcuts to common exercises like running, cycling, and strength training appear, as well as shortcuts to less common activities like skiing and “golf swing.” Under “More workouts,” you’ll find a whopping 13 exercise categories, each with between 4 and 31 different activities to track.
Amazfit GTS 4 review: Software and performance
There are a lot of things to figure out on the watch, and it will probably take you about a week to get used to everything. Depending on the watch face you choose, the home screen itself has a lot of information. You can get to the notification bar by swiping down. It looks like something you’d find on a smartphone. There are a lot of ways to change things here. When you swipe up, you can see all the app notifications.
Amazfit GTS 4 review: Battery life
The GTS 4 from Amazfit is said to have a battery life of eight days, but what you actually get depends on which features you use and which ones you don’t. In the last few weeks that we’ve had the device, we’ve used it with and without the always-on display.
As you might expect, this makes the biggest difference in what you can expect to get. With the display set to “always on” during the day and 30–60 minutes of GPS-tracking exercise, the battery would drain by about 20–25%.
Amazfit GTS 4 review: Price and availability
Many stores sell the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 for the same price as the GTS 4, while the Fitbit Versa 4 costs a bit less. Given that the Samsung flagship watch from last year has a lot more smartwatch features and works with third-party apps, it’s hard to say that the GTS 4 is the best option under $200, £200, or €200. At this price, though, it’s a good choice for people who want more of a tracker than a phone companion.
Final Words
The Amazfit GTS 4 is a great smartwatch for everyday use, and it stays together very well. The AMOLED screen up front has great colours, and I had no trouble reading content on it outside. The quality of the strap is good, and it doesn’t get dirty or cause rashes.
Because it is light, you can wear it for a long time without any trouble. The Amazfit GTS 4 does a good job of keeping track of workouts and monitoring heart rate and SpO2. Almost all of the time, it gives correct results. Integration of Amazon Alexa is a very helpful feature.
