Amazfit T-Rex Dual Solar Clears FCC — First Dual-Display Solar Smartwatch Heading to IFA September 2026

Zepp Health{"'"}s Amazfit T-Rex Dual Solar has quietly cleared five international regulatory bodies, including the FCC on August 12, signaling an imminent launch for what could be the first smartwatch to combine AMOLED and solar display technologies.

What We Know

• Model number: A2570, identified as "Amazfit T-Rex Dual Solar" in Malaysian telecom filings
• Connectivity: Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and likely dual-frequency GNSS confirmed via FCC documentation
• Regulators cleared: FCC (US), Indonesia, South Korea, Malaysia, and the Eurasian Economic Union
• Expected launch: IFA 2026 in Berlin, September 5–9

The "Dual Solar" Mystery

No production smartwatch has shipped with a "Dual Solar" architecture. The name suggests one of two possibilities: an AMOLED display paired with a secondary MIP solar panel (similar to how Garmin{"'"}s Power Glass works on MIP displays, but applied to AMOLED for the first time), or dual-zone solar cells on both the watch face and case for maximum energy harvesting. Either approach would be a genuine engineering first.

How It Compares

The T-Rex line has traditionally competed on price — the current T-Rex Ultra retails around $300, significantly cheaper than the Garmin Venu 4 at $540 or the Apple Watch Ultra 3 at $640. If Amazfit can deliver solar-extended battery life with an AMOLED screen at a T-Rex price point, it would undercut Garmin{"'"}s premium outdoor watches while matching their signature solar charging feature.

Should You Wait?

If you{"'"}re shopping for an outdoor smartwatch under $400 and aren{"'"}t locked into the Garmin ecosystem, waiting for the IFA announcement makes sense — it{"'"}s less than three weeks away. If you need a watch now, the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 and Apple Watch Ultra 3 are proven options. Browse all smartwatches.
