Amazfit unveils T-Rex Dual Solar smartwatch with dual solar panels

Amazfit has announced the T-Rex Dual Solar, a rugged outdoor smartwatch featuring a unique dual-panel solar charging system. The device includes one solar panel integrated into its 1.32-inch AMOLED display and a second, larger ceramic glass panel located on the back of the case. This design allows users to charge the device while wearing it or by placing it face-down in direct sunlight during breaks.

According to manufacturer specifications, the dual-panel system significantly extends battery life. Under typical usage, the watch lasts approximately 25 days without solar assistance. With three hours of daily exposure to 50,000 lux, the front panel can extend this to 34 days, while the rear panel can extend it to 51 days. In a specialized 'Outdoor Extreme' mode with reduced GPS frequency, the device can theoretically last up to 180 days with continuous solar charging.

Built for durability, the smartwatch features a titanium grade 5 bezel and buttons, sapphire crystal glass, and is designed to operate in temperatures ranging from -30°C to 70°C. It offers 10 ATM water resistance (up to 50 meters) and includes features such as built-in maps, turn-by-turn navigation using six satellite systems, and an integrated LED flashlight. The device is being launched in the European market with a recommended retail price of approximately 649.90 euros.
