Amazfit GTR 4 vs Amazfit GTS 4
The Verdict
Both smartwatches share the same $199 price point and Zepp OS platform, but serve different user priorities. GTR 4 excels with its circular 1.43-inch AMOLED display, superior 14-26 day battery life, and inclusion of NFC for contactless payments,ideal for fitness enthusiasts prioritizing longevity. GTS 4 counters with a larger 1.75-inch rectangular AMOLED screen, lighter 27g design, and dual-band GPS (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BDS, QZSS) for enhanced navigation accuracy, though battery life drops to 8 days typical usage. Health monitoring is identical: SpO2, heart rate, and sleep tracking without ECG. The GTR 4's circular aesthetic and extended battery life make it the stronger choice for users seeking classic design and infrequent charging, while the GTS 4 appeals to those preferring larger displays and precise multi-satellite positioning. Choose GTR 4 for longevity; select GTS 4 for screen real estate.
