If you're not in the Apple ecosystem and don't have anything else to compare it to, you will be just fine with this.
YMMV.
I have Amazfit bip of some kind that is older than yours, I use it for about the same things.
I get about 3-4 weeks.
Also time zones and alarms seem to work.
All settings for alarms on mine go through the Zepp app and the predecessor app, I forgot the name.
On the GTS 2 Mini you can set the alarms directly on the watch. I like that feature a lot. It uses the time displayed on the watch, so as long as the watch is synced to the time zone you are in, it will go off at the correct time. The vibrate function wakes me up 19 out of 20 times. And that one time it doesn't, it wakes me up once it goes off again after the automatic snooze.

The only "premium" feature I have set is the automatic display. I 100% fully charged my watch 12 hours ago. Now my battery is currently at 76%.
I fully expected to lose 15-20% battery at night for the robust sleep tracking features, but can't understand why I'm losing around 30% during my waking hours when I'm really only using it to check the time.
First though, go to settings on your watch, then system and hit restart. Most problems are solved by doing that. If that doesn't change anything, do the same but do a factory reset. You'll have to set a few things back up again, but it may be worth it.
I have vibration turned on, it doesn't seem to impact battery life much. Even with a ton of messages and other notifications.
I did turn off the automatic display when you turn your wrist, I noticed that makes the display turn on a lot. That did help increase battery life.
Reduce your heart monitoring to 5 or even 10 minutes. See how that impacts battery life and if you're still happy with the results.
I have all the sleep monitoring turned off. After playing with it, I decided it's not worth it. It still displays your sleep and light and deep and REM sleep etc.
I also have stress monitoring turned off. I know when I'm stressed, I don't need the watch to tell me.
Either way, there are a lot of things you can play with so you can find a happy balance for battery life and what you want from the watch.

Fitbit offered a 50% off code to buy a new watch on their site (excludes Fitbit Ace 3, Charge 6 and Google Pixel watches). So with this code, could get a Fitbit Luxe or Inspire 3 for $50. Or could get a Fitbit Sense 2 for $125 or a Fitbit Versa 4 for $100.
It seems this Amazfit GTS 2 Mini is most comparable to a Fitbit Versa 4. So is a Fitbit Versa 4 at $100 a better value than this $50 Amazfit?
