Looks like the answer is not in the favor of users as official support team has answered it. As per the Amazfit representative called Tiffany, the older Amazfit smartwatches including Amazfit GTR 2 & GTS 2 will not receive Zepp OS update. Various users have asked same question from their origin country and received the same answer. The answer is applied to Amazfit GTR 2 & GTS 2 series, GTR & GTS series, T-Rex, T-Rex Pro, Amazfit Stratos lineup, Amazfit Bip lineup & Zepp Health series devices.

Zepp OS on Old Amazfit Watches

Further, the Amazfit rep says the main reason to not release next major software on previous model is lack of memory and the slow processor. She confirms all the current models are not suitable to handle heavy code of Zepp OS that could result in slow performance or unwanted crashes. The official Amazfit member on Weibo account China has given same answer few days ago. If you have bought new Amazfit GTR 3, GTR 3 Pro & GTS 3, then you can taste the new software before anyone else.
