If you love the great outdoors and big adventures, you already know that you need rugged equipment to keep up. Anything fragile or testy will break down easily when subjected to the elements. Something like a smartwatch, for example, needs to be tough, water-resistant, and ready to take on the world. Allow me to introduce the Amazfit T-Rex 3 smartwatch, built from the ground up figuratively for the outdoors. Able to withstand temperatures from 158 degrees Fahrenheit down to negative 22 degrees Fahrenheit, this beast of a machine will definitely keep up. It’s also on sale right now for Black Friday. Normally $280, it’s yours for just $235 — saving you $45. That deal is only good until November 27, however, so don’t wait too long if you’re interested.

If you want a solid, in-depth look at the watch, be sure to check out Andy Boxall’s hands-on with the Amazfit T-Rex 3. He agrees it’s rough, tough, and capable, and even ditched his Apple Watch for it. He also praises the watch for its intelligent design, solid functionality, and accessible price. Speaking of accessible price, with this Black Friday deal Amazfit is offering the T-Rex 3 smartwatch is more affordable than ever. It shaves $45 off the regular price, bringing it down to a reasonable $235.

You get a rugged outdoor smartwatch that’s excellent for athletes and anyone with an active lifestyle. It can withstand extreme temperatures. Offers a waterproof design up to 328 feet, and has a bright 2.000 nit screen so you can see the display outdoors. The 1.5-inch display beautifully shows GPS maps, workout data, and sleep recovery info, right where you need it. Get over three weeks of battery life under typical use, or about 13 days under heavy use. That’s a far cry from having to charge every night and allows you to break free from outlets — a big deal when you’re out in the wilds.

Download offline GPS maps viewable on the watch to help you navigate or keep track of your location. Moreover, a ton of detailed outdoor trackers give you all the info you need from a compass, air pressure reader, altitude, storm alert mode and more.

As if that wasn’t enough, tap into Amazfit’s Zepp Flow AI assistant which can help with standard tasks like sending speech-to-text messages or reading alerts. It can also help with personalized fitness goals — via Zepp Coach — and more.

Notebookcheck spotted six versions available for preorder at $499, each carrying a September 1 release date. Amazon has since pulled the pages, so new orders are closed and anyone who already placed one is left wondering whether it still counts.

Don’t expect smartwatches and fitness bands with replaceable batteries anytime soon
Turns out even the EU thinks your smartwatch is too small for a battery swap.
Wristwatch, Arm, Body Part

The EU has a habit of pushing tech companies to adopt meaningful changes in their product. It's the reason your iPhone finally has a USB-C port, and it's also why companies now have to offer spare parts and repair support for electronics for several years after launch. So naturally, many of us assumed wearables were next in line for mandatory swappable batteries. Turns out, the EU just went the other way.
