Our teardown of version 10.0.5 of the Zepp app reveals the first mention of Amazfit Active 3 Premium, alongside ongoing support for the unreleased T-Rex Ultra 2.<\/p>\n<p>New device references appear in Zepp 10.0.5<\/p>\n<p>Zepp App 10.0.5 was released a few days ago. We did an analysis of the software and found two upcoming watches referenced in the code. Amazfit T-Rex Ultra 2 has already appeared in the previous version. But this marks the first time we\u2019ve seen any mention of an Active 3 model.<\/p>\n<p>The string that appears is for Amazfit Active 3 Premium. There is no sign of a non-premium or standard variant in this build. That could mean Zepp Health is streamlining the product line, or it might suggest a single high-end model is being prepped for launch first. Or maybe it just hasn\u2019t added the code yet for the non-premium version.<\/p>\n<p>How the Active 3 Premium string appears<\/p>\n<p>The reference was found in the app\u2019s internal string resources, which are used to define UI elements and device names for the pairing screen. The entry reads:<\/p>\n<p>Amazfit Active 3 Premium<\/p>\n<p>This matches Zepp Health\u2019s usual naming structure when prepping a new device. There is one additional string referencing the model. The presence of these strings usually indicates app-side support is in active development. There are no images or feature sets tied to the name yet, but it\u2019s likely those will follow in the next few releases.<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0Amazfit Active 2\u00a0was released in\u00a0January 2025. We <a href=\"https:\/\/gadgetsandwearables.com\/2025\/01\/21\/amazfit-active-2-review\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">reviewed that device<\/a> and found it to be great combination of accurate tracking, great battery life and practical features \u2013 making it a no-brainer at its price point.<\/p>\n<p>If we look further back, the original\u00a0Amazfit Active\u00a0was released globally in October 2023. So there was about a year and 3 or 4 months between Gen 1 and 2. If we apply that same math, we could be looking at Active 3 in late March or April.<\/p>\n<p>T-Rex Ultra 2 still present across the code<\/p>\n<p>As mentioned, the Amazfit T-Rex Ultra 2 continues to appear in the APK. The device is referenced via string entries\u00a0in the app\u2019s resources and dex string pools. Specifically, we\u2019ve seen human readable name strings such as the device name and internal variant style keys. These references have remained stable across the last few versions.<\/p>\n<p>There are no signs of new models beyond these two in this version of the app. But Zepp Health tends to push incremental support leading up to launch, so we\u2019ll keep tracking future updates closely.<\/p>\n<p>We also recently spotted a <a href=\"https:\/\/gadgetsandwearables.com\/2026\/02\/04\/amazfit-t-rex-ultra-2-regulatory\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">new regulatory filing<\/a> in Malaysia tied to the model number A2550. That identifier is not associated with any currently available Amazfit watch. It could belong to either Active 3 or Ultra 2, but based on how the app support is shaping up, Ultra 2 looks like the more likely candidate to surface first.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, none of this has been confirmed or denied by Zepp Health. So this is best viewed as an early look rather than a confirmation.<\/p>\n<p>Subscribe to our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/mailchi.mp\/4bfccf2a6b9d\/gadgets-wearables-monthly-newsletter-sign-up-form\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">monthly newsletter<\/a>!
