Update: 12/2024: Yes I believe it can be a fragile watch and yes I believe you should keep it away from all water and do not tempt fate with a shower or swimming pool, but that being said.... Tech support came through for me and replaced my watch with a new one when it was probably my fault for getting into a swimming pool with the watch on. The Zepp app has significant improvements. I like it! I use my watch a lot with daily treadmill and weightlifting exercises. Is the algorithm scientifically perfect. I doubt it, but it is terrific for me. The Bluetooth reception is phenomenal. I can literally be nearly 40 ft away from my phone in a completely different room with walls in between and answer a phone call/talk with the watch. So many watch faces to choose from! The battery life, even with exercise, easily gives me up to 14 days. Amazfit has hired a few more support members for US customers. Extremely happy! I will replace this with another Amazfit Active if it becomes necessary to do so.
Update: "This watch is returned frequently" quote from Amazon. The Amazefit Active is fully equipped with all the bells and whistles. However, it will last about one year. The toll free number for support says they are no longer accepting phone calls and then says there is only one person for all of North America. Purchase with your "eyes wide open". I like the watch as Smart Watches go, but I can tell this is going to be a fragile piece of equipment. Do not shower or swim with it. Also, there's no protection between the charger and the contacts underneath the watch. All the crud that gets on the skin will be transferred to the charging contact points. The battery life of 14 days is an absolute truth. The calling and speaking function of the watch is a bit distorted. It works, but don't buy it for the answering and speaking purpose. It uses the app called Zepp. I do not believe it is scientifically accurate, but I do use it to count my calories, my steps, get my text messages and send text message responses, replace watch faces and a lot more. It also allows you to do voice to text responses to SMS messages. Pretty cool. I suggest you buy a screen protector if scratches on the watch face drive you crazy. In summary, I suggest you will need to purchase a new one each year if you fall in love with the watch.
The battery life alone far exceeds that of their Apple Watches. They can now go several days, about a week (depending on use and GPS/Sensor settings) on one charge rather than hours to a day as before.
They have all the tracking functions and features they need or want, gain the ability to track their sleep rather than having the watch on a charger overnight, and don't miss their old watches at all.
Pros
* Battery Life: On a regular day this only burns 5% of battery life. If you do anything like running/walking that uses GPS, you will lose 5% in an hour. I should be able to get 2 weeks off of 1 full charge.
* Price: Very decent price for what you get.
* Screen: Gets pretty bright & the AMOLED screen is attractive.
Cons
* Double vibrate: Wish that it would only vibrate once for notifications and cannot find a way to change it.
* Random Reboots: This thing will occasionally reboot when I am in Strength Training mode for more than 1.5 hours.
* Workout Mode: This takes over watch face & give you spoken updates. The only way I can check anything during my workouts is to long press the button (programmed to settings) & then press again once the settings appears to get back to the watch face.
So-So
* Build Quality: For the price cannot really complain but the plastic does feel on the cheap side as does the band.
* Accessories: Not a lot of cases to pick from. Does use the same charger as a GTS2 so did not have to buy extras.
* Operating System: Not sure what OS this is but it is not as good as Wear OS but for the price difference it is fine.
The Zepp app is OK, though I ended up disabling notifications.
Tracking has been nice, especially workouts.
Cons: I don't care for the app at all. It's confusing, It doesn't seem to track history for anything but sleep. I have yet to see it record my activity and I exercise five days a week for 45 minutes. If there's a video explaining it, that would be helpful but I haven't found it yet. They need way more documentation or videos so users could get over the top of the learning curve. Another issue is It seems they are pushing another subscription. If I wanted to bleed my bank account maybe, but I Don't!
It's lightweight, it works great with my android. I'm able to respond to messages from it. I get all of the notifications. It tracks my workouts very well. My sleep as well. It feels comfortable on my wrist. It was not too complicated to set up. I'm able to connect my data with my calorie tracking app via health connect. It seems to be durable. There are plenty of bands to choose from on Amazon, cause the band size is universal.
I'd say it's perfect for a girl, cause it's not bulky by any means which was one of the major reasons why I waited up until not to get a smart watch.
I highly recommend! Functionality vs the price makes this watch a steal!
Now, what I don't like.
The heart rate works fine and then for no reason it says my HR is 130 during a walk and I'll check it and its around 80. Even during a easy run it said my rate was 160 when it was around 120. Not sure why and doesn't seem to be anyway to correct it. Guess I'm amazed it can take a HR period.
Zepp app is so so. Often it's hard to figure out where to go to make changes to some of the screens; like adding or removing apps or changing the workout list, etc. If you like playing around and figuring things out you'll be OK but if you don't, it can be frustrating.
Overall a great watch for the money and has lots of features.
So, how is this different or better? Better in these ways: The amazfit active has better stress and mental readiness scores, an app that includes more health information, and a ai bot that can encourage and answer questions in real time. In addition there is free breathing tools on the device, great gps, and phone connectivity.
The Zepp app includes Aura aibot which has an add payable service to syncs music and sounds for meditation, sleep, and relaxing based on your heart rate. Very wow for insomniacs valuing life giving sleep. The cost is $40 per year unlimited. But limited is free and it is a bargain. And you get Amazon music and Alexa built in.
There is a coaching service that i do not use because I’m in love with the bodbot app. Nice that all thise movements are recorded on my amazfit.
Amazfit app syncs seamlessly with apple health for people in the i- universe. I have an iPhone and a Google pixel phone for their various strengths. But for fitness apple health rocks. Sorry Google, i know you are working on it.
This is a high value low price device. It lacks one thing my garmin forerunner has- fall or accident detection with auto dial for help if you are unresponsive.
A worthwhile high end features and faithful device with lots of watch faces and an app with lovely graphics and an aibot. I love it.
PS i speak fluent Fitbit and Apple Watch. The lack of a good magnet charger and their much shorter battery life drop them from my best product list. Apple Watch is gold standard and very pricey. Fitbit support is allegedly to be dropped in 2025-26. Do your homework.
Note: This particular fitness watch, Amazfit Active, is cute. However, I decided to switch it for the GTS 4 that was more age appropriate.
Pro's:
It was simple to setup. I recommend watching the video on the Amazfit site before you start.
It stays connected to my phone without dropping, even when I'm not close to my phone.
It offers safety features, like being able to make a call out from my watch should I fall.
You can easily program contact phone numbers to dial out.
Customer Service is very helpful, however, there is not a direct contact number.
Con's:
The is not a direct contact number for Customer Service.
The Active has a plastic base (Pink, Lilac or Black) as well as strap.
The step count was way off for around the house steps. It counts correctly if you are on a walk, swinging your arms and walking over 10 steps at a time.
The GTS 4 seems to be missing some of the features that were on the Active. The Readiness Score, Morning Update and fall detection do not seem to be available. Hopefully, Amazfit will be able to correct this problem.
The big problem with this watch is that the Bluetooth is severely under-powered. I wanted to be able to download my music onto my watch (successful) and then go work out or jogging without having to carry my phone around. The Bluetooth connection from the watch to the headphones was so weak that if the watch is more than a foot away from the headphones the connection breaks in and out. I know it wasn't the headphones because my phone could be 20 feet away and I can listen just fine.
The pulse rate is consistently 7 to 12 bpm off. Sometimes high, sometimes low.
The pedometer is based solely on motion of the arm so it doesn't record a lot of steps. For example, when I mow my 1/2 acre lot which is about 2000 steps the watch will record 0.
It seems that the GPS feature of the watch is dependent on the GPS on your phone so it is useless (if you have to carry your phone, just use the phone).
The sleep function is OK but seems to be incorrect a lot. For example, when I had a bad night and was awake from 3 AM to 5 AM it counted that as light sleep (2 minutes awake). In addition, every time you roll over it lights up so if you are a light sensitive sleeper you may want to take the watch off at night.
Overall, this seems like it is just an extension of your phone so you may as well just carry your phone and save the money unless you really want a cheesy looking watch.
It does have a lot of different watch faces.
Pros:
1. Very Bright Screen. The screen is bright and colorful. I have it set to about 15% brightness or less and I have no trouble seeing anything on the screen.
2. Great OS. The Operating System is very responsive and easy to navigate. Virtually no latency when swiping on the screen.
3. Long Battery Life. I have been using this watch for 10 days now and so far it has worked well. The battery is still at 46% on day 10. I even have the watch set to scan me at least once every minute.
Cons:
1. Extremely Poor selection of free watch faces
2. Poor selection of apps
3. Very temperamental when taking the stress test. It didn't have any issues getting a reading the first week I had it, but it does now.
4. Soft glass. The screen is easy to scratch.
5. My biggest complaint is that I CANNOT pair another device to the Zepp app at the same time as my watch.
6. The Zepp app also does NOT allow devices from other manufacturers to pair with it. This is a major negative.
Easy to read and light weight, I can hardly tell I'm wearing it. 100's of watch faces to download quite a lot are Free and look great.
La correa me a provocado esta reacción, he usado muchos relojes y correas hasta baratas de otras tiendas ne línea ninguna me había provocado esta reacción!!!!! De terror.
Mucho cuidado.
Hoy he estado gran parte de la tarde y la noche configurando el reloj provee el ritmo cardíaco con el de mi medidor de presión accu chek y dio exactamente igual, lo he comprado para monitorear algunos parámetros de salud y para ir agregando algunos ejercicios más adelante haré una actualización.
A simple vista lo que no me ha gustado es poder encender el reloj con un toque en la pantalla sin necesidad de apretar el botón o mantener activado la opción de levantar la mano. Seguiré probando, he cambiado este por el xiaomi mi band 7 pro, el cual he usado por más de un año y me va muy bien pero es pulsera y no podía contestar llamadas
I was trying this since I gave up on my Galaxy watching not lasting a full day. I can get almost 2 weeks charge and I have app & text notifications. I have had it almost a month and charged it twice.
There is a lot of configuring to have it work like I wanted it to. I wanted to make sure that I could answer text messages, even if it is just a canned response, I can at least get back without my phone.
I have only used the call speaker once and I was told it wasn't totally clear but it works.
I will stick with the Amazfit brand and recommend it.
New update as of Jan.19 2025- well it will be a year in march 2025 and my amazfit is still working amazing. I have been using for tracking my steps and excersize and for sleep. I have lost over 40lbs and feel great. I needed motivation and this watch helped me find it. I definitely recommend this watch. Also with new updates, the watch can do so many new things like texting directly from watch with and without emojis, it didn't do it before but with update it's so awesome. I'm thinking about getting another one. A shinier one just to wear when i go out to social events.
I love amazfit and i highly recommend it. I give it 10 stars.
But my two biggest essentials and expectations for living with a smartwatch were not present: 1. No toxic smell, and 2. At least one clock face that I like, that has the info I need, and that is easily readable.
1. To me this watch has a strong strange smell, which I suspect may be toxic solvents from manufacture, that have not been de-gassed. I opened the box yesterday, wore the watch overnight, and have felt sick from it today. The smell is in my clothing, my bedsheets, and my wrist skin. Now I have to detox everything, including myself. I am like a canary, sensitive to environmental toxins. Most people may not even notice the smell. But anyone who has multiple chemical sensitivities should be wary. Maybe leaving the watch out in the sun for a few hot days would take care of it, but I am sending it back today because besides the smell, I could not find a single clock face that I liked.
2. I went through the whole watch face store (only a handful of watch faces are free) with hundreds of offerings, and did not find a single one that could work for me. The outputs I really need are the time in 00:00 format, steps of the day, and heart rate. O2 would be helpful. A weather icon (sunny/cloudy/rainy etc.) and temperature would be very nice. But in every watch face some of my essential items are absent, or they are in a font that is way too small for my older eyes, or the colors or designs jangle and distract my eyes. For me red is distracting, except perhaps for the heart icon for heart rate. And all the free clock faces, and many of the paid ones, feature red. It would be helpful to have viewing access to each smartwatch’s clock face store before ever buying and activating the watch itself. That could have saved Amazfit, Amazon, and me the inconvenience and loss of a next-day return.
3. Another shortcoming that buyers should know, and that I have not seen in any reviews, is that the implementation of Alexa is very limited — just short factual answers, with no podcasts or apps like Pandora allowed. My old Fitbit could play them…
Good luck in your shopping, everyone!
I am not wild about the silicone strap. It feels cheap and I'm having a hard time finding the right hole to ensure a decent fit on my small wrist. Amazfit makes a "vegan leather" strap for the pink watch it sells but I haven't found any replacement bands explicitly stating they fit the Active, which makes me hesitant to look for an aftermarket band.
The app is okay, but for unknown reasons, some of the settings available with the GTS 4 don't seem to be available for the Active. For example, with the GTS 4, the app/watch was happy enough with the approximate location for displaying weather info. Not so for the Active. It annoys me it won't let me enter a zip code or an approximate location. The exercise/exercise settings feature is difficult to use and set up. I haven't been able to find a way to customize strength training so I tried using the generic indoor fitness (or one of the other ones) but that, too, insisted on counting sets. I would think you could control at least some of the settings in the app but if there's a way, I haven't found it. My last gripe with the app is it reminds me every time I open the app functionality may be limited if I don't give it full access to everything it wants to access. I know this and I don't care. I CHOOSE TO TURN OFF SOME OF THE PERMISSIONS. Yet every single time I open the app, I have to select GOT IT and then exit out of the permissions settings on my phone.
If you don't need a NAMED watch, the Amazfit Active has a nice design, good performance, great battery life and decent price point.
The battery life is superb. I leave the watch on overnight and only charge when I'm showering. Even better, if I go away on a trip and forget to bring a charger it will still last. How many other watches can give you a week plus of battery life?
This watch has access not only to Alexa but to the Zepp Flow assistant. Speech recognition has been flawless and unlike previous models this has a speaker as well. The features are varied enough that not only does it have the timers and trackers I was looking for, there are more I need to work on building into my routine.
I did find the band to be a bit uncomfortable. But it's a standard 20mm watch band so you can easily replace it with one of your choice. The faces are sufficient, from simple and decorative to the more complex ones I favor with lots of information.
As of November 2024 I did have a minor issue and found the customer support to be excellent.
UPDATE: I read a review saying the GPS on this watch relied on the GPS on the phone so I decided to test this. I left my phone at home and went for a WALK around the block. I waited for the watch to say GPS positioning to complete and started the exercise. Came back in the house and picked up my phone and looked at the workout to see it had mapped my walk with 100% accuracy. Not sure how the other reviewer did his testing but I can vouch that the GPS is working fine for me.
I contacted the mfr via email (they don't answer the phone and while they say you can leave a voicemail, they don't give you a recording option). I will say they were very responsive and got back to me within one business day. They confirmed that I had tried everything and that I should return the watch under warranty (1 year). They instructed me to contact my reseller (Amazon) to execute the warranty. Fortunately, Amazon is always very helpful. While it did take some time and three transfers to get to the right person, they did send a return label and issued a full refund to my original payment method.
It's really unfortunate that this seems to be a common problem with this watch because I absolutely loved everything else about it until that happened. I would have even accepted a warranty exchange to hopefully get one that didn't have the same issues, but where I have found review after review complaining of the same issue, I feel it would be in my best interest to seek out a different brand as I rely heavily on the features and function of the watch. If Amazfit could fix this issue permanently, I would definitely buy again which is why I gave it two stars.
as they got better. The amazfit active does pretty much the same as the gts4 with the exception of offline voice commands. I am not impressed with the flow assistant. It is slow to respond and not that capable with answers. I don't know why its even on the watch. Alexa voice assistant is much better at responding. One other thing is; the watch doesn't have auto brightness. All together it's a decent watch with just a couple of flaws. I recommend this watch over the big name brands because it does just as much as they do at a much better price. Looks like another amazfit home run!.
