The watch has big display and very bright, can see clearly even under direct afternoon sun light. Even though it is big but the body is lightweight made of aluminum alloy, its dark color blends in with the strap making the large size less obvious. The included strap is very comfortable. The watch can track stress, sleep, heart rate, blood oxygen and you can control your watch with your voice using Zepp Flow. The included AI is pretty good seems the same as google gemini or chatgpt. These are other stuff it can track, Sleep heart rate variability, Sleep stages (including REM), Daytime naps, Sleep schedule, Sleep breathing quality. Can do Menstrual cycle tracking too. The watch's water-resistance grade is 5 ATM, meaning it can withstand pressure equivalent to 50 meters or 164 feet of static water depth for up to 10 minutes. Its speaker is pretty loud. Battery life is very good, on paper should last up to 20 days. In my case, with everything enabled, it lasted more than 5 days. Even thought it has GPS receiver and can train and navigate without the phone, to use it, you need to store offline map on the watch and import the route file for navigation to work. It is not possible to choose a point on the offline map and have it route for navigation. Navigation functions only work with outdoor sports modes like walking or running etc. Bluetooth Phone Camera Control supports only iPhone. Unfortunately my phone is an Android. The watch does not have wifi so must rely on bluetooth connection with the phone to update or download or access internet. To use the watch, you must install the Zepp app on the phone. No charging cable is provided.

The Bip Max while being affordable, includes far more features then you might expect at this price point. Battery life, screen size, notifications, phone calls, Zepp app, multitude of workouts, sensors, and ease of use are all top shelf and in many ways, better than pricier options. The physical size and thickness of the watch itself might need to be considered before purchase. After several days of use, I like it, especially the alerts to get me up and moving more. Almost feels like the Amazfit Bip Max has a playful and motivating system to not make me feel bad if I ignore it and miss an opportunity to move and be active. I've included more in depth review below. Unboxing: The watch, 22mm silicone watch band, magnetic charge puck and paperwork. A USB-C cable is oddly not included and will be needed to recharge watch. Size: The Bip Max is big. The sensor(s) on the back, also protrudes a bit. And when on wrist it stands tall. If you wear a watch on the inside of wrist. Less of an issue. On top of wrist. It sits high and appears larger than many regular timepieces. Not a negative, just noting it for those with small wrists. I chose to swap my own 22mm stainless watch band for the included strap. Silicone bands are itchy to me. Metal watch bands are easier for me and I prefer the look. Comfort is decent for a larger timepiece. App/Software: The watch app is called Zepp. Very thorough app to setup nearly every aspect of the watch. There are far too many features and settings to name. Favorite feature so far, badges. Badges are awarded to sort of "gamify" your progress to help motivate you. The app is very good and beyond what I have used before because the whole watch can be controlled in just this one app. One login and done. Workouts most would do are here. Weather where I live has kept me mostly stuck walking indoors. It seems to be fairly active for steps so far. Hopefully, kayaking and cycling can get tested soon. Watch faces. There are plenty of free faces and a few fancier ones that can cost up to $2.99. The free options are very good. Additional apps are also available through the Zepp app. Many for free. Maps are also added through the app. A nearly 200 x 125 mile map is only about 200mb. So, you can save a few very large areas to track where you workout or drive to. GPS is quick and accurate. While driving it chimes as you change roads and highways. Might need to mute that. One oddity noticed. Occasionally, the night mode (screen goes green, red, or orange) comes on. Great feature for night, but not sure why it randomly activates. It has a time feature and maybe needs to be set. Daily Use: I am an older guy and just trying to motivate myself to be a little less sloth like. The first thing is the screen size is much easier to see and use, even without readers. Daily use and wearing the watch everywhere, except shower (Bip is waterproof), and the morning briefing just keeps me on top of goals I set for myself. Badges add to accomplishments. Yet, just knowing sleep scores and daily movement are leading to potentially better health is worth the minimal purchase price. The watch also allows you to keep your phone pocketed more often. Haptics and alerts for notifications all come in easily from my Android. Emails, text and camera alerts are text only. You can see emojis and reply with them, but pictures or thumbnails do not show. You can also take and make calls, and quality is pretty good. Bluetooth audio is also present, but did not test yet as storage of 4gb (2gb free) is not enough for me as a standalone music player. The Zepp Flow assistant is possibly still a work in progress. It had trouble doing what I ask. It might get better the more it is used. I do not have any accent, and it struggles to understand me. Sensors and features: While all the included sensors are typical of most smart watches and seem to be very accurate for movement, heart and blood health. I wanted to note the lack of ECG/EKG, fall detection, temperature and NFC. None of these are totally necessary. Just be nice if included, but then the price would be much higher. Buttons on the side can be assigned to nearly every feature or app in the watch. Single press, long press and double press. Final thoughts: The biggest consideration is the size of the watch. If you can wear a watch this big. Then don't give it a second thought and buy it. It works great on its own and in conjunction with my Android phone. You get over a week of use between charges. Workouts, tracking health or just being a watch that shows notifications without reaching for the phone. It can always be with you. The Amazfit Bip Max is really good value in smart watches.

TLDR: A new smartwatch for Android and Apple phones. Stated 20 day charge, waterproof, 2.7 inch AMOLED bright screen, aluminum alloy shell, silicon watch strap, conductive charging, many sensors for Oxygen, Heartbeat, Steps, Miles, built-in GPS with offline maps, 4GB of onboard storage, and bluetooth for phone and messaging reception and replies. Some of the Specifications are: Bright Display: 2.07-inch always-on AMOLED touchscreen. Extreme Brightness: 416 x 416 resolution reaching 3000 nits. Design: 50mm aluminum alloy and polymer case. Comfortable Strap: 22mm interchangeable liquid silicone band. Massive Battery: Lasts up to 20 days per charge. Generous Storage: 4GB for music, podcasts, and offline maps. Water Protection: 5 ATM rating up to 50 meters. Universal Sync: Bluetooth compatible with iOS and Android. Health and Fitness Specs: Workout Variety: Over 150 tracked sports modes. Targeted Training: Includes a dedicated HYROX training profile. Offline Navigation: Built-in GPS supporting downloaded maps. Continuous Monitoring: Tracks heart rate and stress levels. Vital Health Metrics: Monitors SpO2, sleep, and BioCharge energy. Data Sharing: Wirelessly syncs to Strava, Runna, and TrainingPeaks. It is lightweight and easy to read in bright light and in dark rooms since it glows with an auto adjust of the brightness. It vibrates when a text message, phone call, or other notification arrives on my phone, a 6 year old Samsung Android with OS 14. I have used it while swimming and it does not skip a beat or care that it gets wet. There is no altitude sensor or a temperature sensor in case those are needed. I see my text messages, WhatsApp messages, and notices of phone calls on the watch. I used it to both reply and to initiate text messages directly from the watch face using the dictation function to create the text message. Very cool. It also allows replying to WhatsApp messages. I can also use the Bip Max smartwatch to make and receive phone calls via my phone's Bluetooth. I tested that and it worked for a 45 minute phone call while on the pool deck to a friend who said he heard me clearly as well as the normal phone connection. The speaker is on the opposite side of the 2 physical buttons so if I'm wearing it on the left arm I need to hold it toward my right ear to hear it at its best. I also swim with the watch and it automatically senses I am swimming and keeps tracking laps, total time, and also displays my heartbeat while swimming, among other specs. Very cool. After 1 day of wearing it the fact I am wearing it is of no consequence since it is very lightweight and waterproof so no worry about damaging it when in the pool area or showering. It displays weather info such as expected low and high temperatures as well as the current temperature from your phone data. It also knows where you are from the phone GPS circuit (if turned on). The software in the watch has tons of workout and health applications that I will be eagerly learning as I continue to use the watch daily. It is a welcome enhancement of my healthy routing from now on. Recommended and the $100 price makes it a huge bargain compared to the A, S, M and G brand watches.

I am a big fan of Amazfit. Have had a few of their watches and I wanted to grab the Bip Max for my wife to use with her iPhone. In the meantime I decided to test it out before I handed it over to her as I usually get the more high end models. ----------- This bad boy packs a heck of a lot for its price. I wanted something my wife could depend on and use for more than just 2 days that her, that which shall not be named, other watch lasts. I wanted her to feel comfortable with the shape of it and be more of the design she is used to on her wrist. ----------- The screen is large, bright, and very fluid. I really like the new Zepp OS software enhancements. There are a ton of watch faces to choose from as well. The Zepp app is so innovative in my opinion and helps make the Bip Max even better. Without putting a hole too deep in your pockets cost wise, this checks off all the boxes for what you need. You'll get all notifications regardless of the phone OS you are using (compatible with both Apple and Android). ----------- Battery is fantastic and you can expect likely two weeks out of this on a single charge. Huge win compared to other companies. ----------- The watch band it comes with is very comfortable as well. The overall look is very simplistic and I personally feel this is the best hang for your buck regardless of what phone you are using, but specifically, this should be the watch you get for your iPhone if you like that rectangle design. ----------- You get continuos heart monitoring, sleep tracking, blood oxygen. Everything you need to monitor your health and track your goals as well. You also get hyrox training implemented in the software which has been taking off as of late in the outdoor and fitness world. ----------- If you have been on the fence about trying out an Amazfit watch, take the leap. You won't regret it.

I have used the Amazfit brand for a long time. It was traditionally my go to for an economical smartmatch that delivered battery life still measured by a single-digit but the metric shifted from day to month (“OG” Amazfit Bip had 45 day battery life!). Back then it was achieved with smaller screens and limited features (still had BPM and Sp02). Today however, the Bip MAX is a full-featured smartwatch with a bright and spacious AMOLED display, and still getting amazing battery life…double digits if measured by days and single digits if measured by weeks. The feature set has everything you could want. For my testing, I setup the wearable to to mirror my Notifications and capture my movements and remind me when I have been stationary too long. I wanted to MAXimize battery life. The ZEPP companion software is very extensive in its capabilities. Setting up the device does not require an account to turn and get the time, etc. But if you want integrations, a ZEPP account is necessary. Once in the watch, you can set it up as typical companion device or go all in and use ZEPP as a primary source for a multitude of features. Some like the Zepp Messenger app, which is supposed to combine all of your messages in one place from your selected apps, are not fully featured yet. As of now, only SMS is available. The Amazfit Bip MAX is a bit larger than I was expecting coming from a 44mm round display. However the build materials keep it light and it doesn't feel as large as it looks. Once jacket weather comes around I may need to rethink my attire game, but for summer livin' I haven't had any issues. The band is comfortable and breathable and should accommodate larger wrists. The strap attachment was a little tricky as the spring pin rotates in the band to slide out of the way when wearing, it just means it takes a couple tries to get it to seat. 11 days of use and I'm sitting at 52% battery so the 20 days battery life should hold true. This marks the 4th or 5th Amazfit product I have had as the “OG” Amazfit I bought 4 for myself and family members. And still have all of them, which do work when charged. I can easily recommend this wearable, I would recommend seeing it in person if possible as the size for smaller wrists may be too large.

Oh boy, I am loving this Amazfit BIP MAX fitness watch. Amazfit has come a long way since I first got one of their early models more than 8 years ago. This one feels far more mature in its capabilities. This is a great alternative to any of the name-brand Apple or Google fitness watches on the market. Amazfit has brought some features that you would wish they would provide. The first thing that catches the eye is the big, bright AMOLED screen that dominates your wrist. It is touch-responsive and provides a good, easy basis for the interface. There are two buttons on the right (if you wear it on the left hand) that provide access to the apps and the various workouts. The device features a microphone, speaker, Bluetooth, GPS, and various health-focused sensors like heart rate and oxygen. This device cannot perform EKGs, but that is not the main point, as it is not a medical-grade device. For a fitness tracker, this is a supercharged one. In the time I have had it, there are several things to like. First of all, is the battery life. I have found I can run a week or more without charging. That is fantastic, coming from my experience with competing brands and their battery life. This may vary if you track health metrics more often or set the watch to keep the screen on all the time, but for regular use, it is perfect. The next thing I loved was the sleep metrics; they actually do better monitoring than the iWatch, and it's almost like the Fitbit when it displays its results. This is very useful, along with resting heart rate and oxygen levels during sleep, which can indicate how well you actually slept. As an outdoor person, I appreciate the watch's several workout apps, not just the usual walking, running, cycling, and swimming. I counted over 100 different sports that can be accessed from the watch. Some unique ones I have never seen are yoga, weightlifting, indoor cycling, rope skipping, and core-strengthening exercises. The onboard GPS was a pleasant surprise. Download your basemaps and go for a walk; you can get lost and still find your way back home. I played around with the Zepp Flow app, an AI assistant that works quite well at providing quick information. Your phone has to be nearby, but it's nice to have this option on your wrist. The app store has several different apps that you can download, some free, some paid. The free apps are not bad at all. I quickly downloaded some interesting apps to test out and wasn't disappointed. Overall, this is a great fitness watch that you can and should consider if you are looking for a health-tracking device. It was definitely a pleasant surprise and a very positive outcome. Yes, the watch is a bit big and a bit squarish, but honestly, that is the unique trait that makes it different. People will stop you to ask what you are wearing — and you can respond, “Amazfit BIP MAX”, and you can tell them all about its virtues and sing its praise, like I just did.

AmazFit Bip Max Smart Watch The AmazFit Bip Max Smart Watch activity tracker that is compatible with both Android and Apple iOS. It is 50mm with a square 2.07" AMOLED touchscreen display and 416 x 416 screen resolution. What I really love about the Amazfit Bip Max is it has a battery life of up to 20 days! My other smart watches last maybe three days tops. The AmazFit smart watch is comfortable to wear during the day or when sleeping at night. It is not heavy on my wrists. Included in the box is the smart watch, charger, and user manual. Please note that a USB-C charging cable is not included in the box. This was not a big deal to me as I most of my devices and electronics use a USB-C cable. When paired with the Zepp App, the AmazFit Bip Max Smart gives BIOCharge energy monitoring, heart rate, SPO2, stress, and sleep tracking. Listen to music and podcast using the Zepp App. The Zepp App is free, however there are certain premium features which require a subscription. To personalize the AmazFit Smart Watch there are additional free and paid apps plus watch faces. If you want to track your workouts and monitor your vital signs, this is a great entry level smart watch. Highly recommend.

Since it arrived, I’ve worn this watch almost nonstop—while sleeping, showering, and checking the time throughout the day whenever my mom asks. It only needs to recharge every three to four days on its charging pad, which is convenient. I also appreciate its health features, though I do wish it could provide even more detailed personal health insights; unfortunately, that kind of capability is not available yet. I am totally amazed by this product, and apparently there are several more models as well. It includes many of the essential apps and features you would expect from a smartphone, while offering a range of options that helps you focus on what matters most in daily life. This version connects to your smartphone, can help locate it when misplaced, includes Bluetooth, and is durable enough to handle everyday wear while remaining waterproof. I even sleep with it on. It tracks key information such as blood pressure, weather, pulse, and oxygen levels, and it can display the time in styles similar to almost any watch you have owned. With its growing capabilities, it feels just one step away from becoming a full smartphone, a portable AI assistant, or even a compact laptop-like device. The base model that I own does everything and anything that I can expect from smartphones' most needed apps And is a piece of hardware that is built outstandingly resilient. This product almost makes me wish that I had an Amazon-built smartphone instead of the other monopoly phones since Amazon demonstrated on this device that it can encompass everything a person needs on a wrist. I was disappointed when I felt forced to move from 3G to 4G, especially because I had turned my portable tablet into a capable smartphone by taping a transmitter to its side, and it worked better than the phone I had to use. With this watch, though, I would choose to buy another one when it improves or wears out. That feels like real capitalism: a product I genuinely want, rather than one I feel pressured into buying. The smartphone in my pocket has fallen out A number of times its screen has cracked; it's been misplaced. It does not fit appropriately in a normal pocket so it is designed to slip and fall through vigorous testing by the monopoly. It's not as reliable as a phone function, roaming interrupting incompatible features It qualifies as a poor-level phone in comparison to an analog phone, whereas this Amazon watch it removes all those deficiencies and serves its primary function as a watch to tell you the time exceptionally well. Good for young people and old people. Reasonable for the healthy and the sick and disabled. I could even give it to my 91-year-old mother and she will not complain about trying to understand its primary use as whereas she cannot deal with a smartphone's primary use because it is not as presentable legacy compatible as this watch The time is easy to read can be set up without complications, although swiping your finger over the touch screen can cause confusion, like all touch screen devices seem to do, unlike a smartphone where you have to tap a bunch of visual buttons to get it to work so it covers all the legacy needs as well as the future needs; it is human-friendly for all ages The only issue I have is that I am diabetic and need glasses just to see script on a computer monitor and this watch can present so much information on its tiny screen that the letters require a magnifying glass to read and therefore I do need to push a button to get the details, but being a physical button, it doesn't enter complete artificial intelligence and demands some kind of virtual reality to pump your brain up; therefore, it covers range of different people, cultures, difficulties of health and functionalities.

This Amazfit smartwatch surprises me. It is well designed, it looks great and it functions well. It makes me question my previous smart watches purchase decisions that cost way way more than this watch. I paired this smart watch with my Android phone, and it works seamlessly. Design I can see that the design takes inspiration from the leading smartwatch brand. There are some differences and the overall impression is actually good. The watch simply looks great. The user interface is easy to navigate, and charging is also easy enough through USB-C connection. The AMOLED screen is bright enough while the colors and resolution are great. I'm pleasantly surprised with the quality of the AMOLED screen because I was not expecting it to be this good. I don’t really like the feel of the silicone band on my skin, and I change it right away. The watch is water resistant though it can only sustain 5 feet depth of water. At least the watch can be worn when taking a shower or some swimming at the pool. Performance I use the watch the whole day and it only takes less than 10% of battery use. Battery life is fantastic and exceeds major namebrands smartwatches. The watch is synced to my Android phone and the app works great. I got notifications from my phone, so the sync works great. I can change the watch face and even transform any picture of my choosing as a watch face. Always-on-display performance is also pretty good. While the watch doesn’t offer features that can be found in much more expensive smartwatches such as EKG, the features that I would use the most are here. Steps counting, heart rate measurement and blood oxygen saturation are probably the most important ones and they are there. The watch offers reminder for abnormally high and low heart rate, which is a cool feature. There’s also sleep quality monitoring. Basic functionality of the smart watch is free and there’s a subscription to get more in-depth functionalities. I’m okay with basic functionality because it already offers what I want. For daily activities, it counts steps and constantly measures heart rate as expected. There’s a lot of preset workouts to choose from and again I’m being reminded of how great value this watch is. The app offers tons of tools such as training planner and sleep tracking with in-depth metrics. There’s also rewards system. The app boosts the value of the watch that it is not just a smart watch but a tool that I can use to improve my overall wellbeing and health. Conclusion It is a great watch whether I use it for receiving notifications from my phones, telling time, or as fitness tracker. It may not have all the features out there, but the most important ones are definitely here. Like: AMOLED screen Battery life Android sync The app Fitness tracking Don’t like: Silicone strap

Right away I noticed: The Amazfit Bip Max Smartwatch 50mm Silicone Silver (2026) is a large watch. At 50mm, it has a LARGE face, and yes, that does make it easier to read. But does anyone really need to see all of that information on their watch at one time? And the watch is very thick - making it look clunky. Out to lunch with a friend while wearing the watch, I was asked if I was wearing a phone on my wrist. It is a large watch at 50mm, but that does make it so that a lot of the information you want can be on your wrist and you are able to actually read it. That makes room for the 2.07" Amoled display which is definitely clear and bright. I have chosen a watch face that has a LOT of info including date/day, time, weather, charge, steps, sleep hours, distance walked and so much more, all on the watch face. And yes, I am able to read everything. This watch is also bulky - it is thick at .43" - so almost 1/2" thick. It does Have a built-in speaker Oh, minor thing, but the watch box actually opens at its bottom. You will need to sync with the "ZEPP" app to get things going - the settings are there, and then keep using it for your training and nutrition insights. Not starting out as a big fan of the look of the watch, there was a lot for it to overcome for it to be a keeper for me. First thing, I had a terribly difficult time getting the watch band connected to the watch body. I do have another brand of smart watch and that band just slides onto the watch body and clicks into place - this one does not. The instructions were to insert one pin into one hole then try to pull back a tiny lever to pull the spring rod, align the other pin with the other hole and then let it snap into place. That didn't happen for me; I watched YouTube videos and I could see that the video makers had the same issues, but some just cut that part out. Frustrated, I handed the watch over to a friend and after a bit, they were able to get it on. All I know is that I will never take this band off though I wish I could replace it with another band because it, like the watch body, is HUGE. I did find there are many replacement bands available online - perhaps they would be better? This watch comes with a charging puck that needs a USB-C cable for charging, but a cable is not included. I happen to have USB-C cables on hand, but does everyone who purchases this watch? They do place a statement on the internal box that holds the watch that says they didn't include the USB-C cable because "...every little choice helps the planet". Just like other companies, they are taking the least expensive way for themselves. The charging puck attaches magnetically to the back of the watch - just make sure to line up the pins. You should only need to charge the watch every 20 days under normal use, which is fantastic. I charged mine up when it arrived about 6 days ago, and I haven't needed to charge it again. It is now at 72%. The Bip Max comes with 4gb of onboard storage for downloads - they suggest workouts or podcasts, along with downloading maps for GPS tracking. As this is a tracker, you will want the notifications that come with a buzz buzz on the wrist that tell you what you need to know about meeting your goals, along with suggestions. It sometimes tells me what a good job I have been doing while at other times, it chastises me for not keeping up with my set goals. It tracks the normal things - steps, calories burned, keeps track of your time working out, heartbeat monitor, etc. It has a lot that it keeps track of. The Amazfit Bip Max Smartwatch 50mm Silicone Silver (2026) is a watch with a lot of potential, but it is hard for it to overcome its huge size and clunky body to become something I would want to wear on my wrist daily. It does track a lot, and seems to do that relatively well, but please Amazfit, offer a smaller, more slim size watch body with a choice of smaller bands. This watch is not for me the way it is now... but perhaps with future changes to its aesthetic, it would be, especially for the price. Your opinion may differ!

A comfortable large watch with associated IOS and Android apps, that aids you in understanding and interpreting physical exercise and training, recovery and rest. Before I became aware of this product, you might say that I was mostly unaware of the extent that this product category has developed, so please excuse the newbie knowledge deficit as I come up to speed and try to relate my learning experience and opinions formed from using the BIP MAX. First off, the unboxing starts with a little arrow on the lower left side of the back of the box that when pulled, separates the label affixed to the box flap and the main body of the box, allowing you to get at the contents without having to rip anything to pieces to get it open. The band, the BIP MAX and the charger base are all nestled safely in designated locations. There is no USB cable or charger included, so you’ll have to improvise something from your existing expected digital life to do so. Also, you will need to attach your watchband to the BIP MAX body. It’s easy. Next, is getting the ZEPP app installed on the IOS or Android phone of at least IOS 15 or Android 7.0 that you are expected to have. The app is found by either searching for it, or using the QR code in the tiny accompanying booklet or on the screen face of the BIP MAX itself after selecting your language preference. A whole host of questions regarding access, permissions and your physical attributes will be asked during the setup and pairing of the app to the BIP MAX. If you have difficulty pairing, try deleting the Bluetooth pairing on your phone and repeating the pairing process with the QR code reading from the watch face. Finally, the last automated step will undoubtedly be updating the watch with the latest version. This may take fifteen minutes or longer for the update, but shows a progress bar on the phone during the update. There are numerous watch faces to select from in the app, in case you aren’t a fan of the original one (I found the font for the clock portion really hard to read.) and some of the faces are customizable as to the features displayed. Speaking of the displayable features, sometimes there are just too many, especially for a non-hardcore workout enthusiast like me to appreciate! I’d recommend reading the Zepp app’s instructional documentation prior to purchase to ensure that the features you are looking for are included. You will see a number of terms that maybe only an athlete or a mother would love! Consider terms like Hybrid-Charge, LifeLoad events, HYROX training, HYROX simulation, Zepp Coach, Pomodoro Timer and Zepp Flow. My interests are currently more on the lighter side of the workout realm and only hoping to work up to utilize and appreciate the more advanced features available. Battery life is appreciatively long compared to my everyday smart watch. The manufacturer claims up to 20 days of use! I’ve been wearing this watch day and night for about three days and the charge is still reading about 81 percent remaining. This of course allows the watch to inform me about all of my sleep data, which is very useful. I found it kind of awkward to wear the watch at night at first, as out of necessity, I’ve been having to charge my other watch every night. However, you do get used to wearing it. Integration to the health data on my smartphone is surprisingly thorough. Step counts and many other parameters transfer over effortlessly. One noted abnormality is detected on the iPhone’s trends section in the health app, indicating an average of about ½ of the burned calories compared to the data collected by the previously worn, bitten-fruit watch. The Zepp app is quite thorough and offers very deep dives into sleep data and all manner of physiological data relating to exercise and fitness, although the manufacturer disclaims this product’s use as a medical device, it is eligible to be paid for with HSA or FSA accounts. There are some other features that are optionally available, but after a trial period, the paid subscription format kicks in. One of them is Zepp Aura, an AI-based personalized wellness system that utilizes the data gathered from your Bip Max or other Amazfit products to deliver sleep and stress-beneficial content, whether music or soundscapes, etc. It yields reports on your wellness, assists in stress management and helps improve your sleep. This product has built-in GPS and data storage of 4GB to download offline maps, record voice memos, store podcasts, etc. There are literally so many features available on this device, that there is insufficient space to list them here. Software improvements and changes are updated frequently, so the accuracy of what I might report has the possibility to be outdated. I really like this product. It is very comprehensive and relatively inexpensive compared to products from some of the more well-known manufacturers and especially in consideration of the incredibly versatile features this product includes. If for some reason the Bip Max doesn’t have something you need, Amazfit has a wide range of products that probably does have what you are looking for. The price of this product, especially if you can apply HSA/FSA pricing considerations, makes it a great deal.

I’ve been wearing a smartwatch for many years, so I was curious to see how the Amazfit Bip Max would compare, particularly since it offers many of the same types of health, fitness, notification, and smartwatch features at a much lower price. After almost a week with the Bip Max, I’ve been pleasantly surprised by how much it offers. Setting up the Bip Max was very straightforward, especially if you’ve used a smartwatch or fitness tracker before. After downloading the Zepp app for iOS or Android, you simply follow the on-screen instructions. The watch displays a QR code that makes pairing with your phone easy, and I was prompted to install a software update. The update took about five minutes. I was also impressed by the number of watch faces available. There are plenty of options to choose from, making it easy to customize the watch to your preferences. The touchscreen is very responsive, and navigating through the watch feels smooth and intuitive. The one area of setup that I didn’t particularly like was the watch band. Attaching the band was a little awkward, and I ultimately needed a small flat-head screwdriver to move the locking mechanism into place. Once attached, the included band also felt a little large on the underside of my wrist. Fortunately, Amazfit offers other replacement bands, and they’re reasonably priced. One of the things I noticed almost immediately was how responsive the Bip Max is with notifications. While testing the watch, I happened to be waiting for an Instacart delivery. Every time the shopper made a change to the order, I received a very noticeable haptic vibration on my wrist. In fact, I found the vibration more noticeable than what I typically experience with my other smartwatch. That’s a small thing, but it’s exactly the kind of feature that makes a device like this useful in everyday life. Battery life is one of the Bip Max’s biggest advantages. After almost a week, the watch is still at 56% battery. I have been switching back and forth between the Bip Max and my other smartwatch during testing, so I haven’t been wearing the Bip Max continuously. However, even when it wasn’t being actively worn, the battery drain at idle was minimal. I obviously haven’t had enough time to verify Amazfit’s maximum battery-life claim, but the battery performance I’ve seen so far is very encouraging. Coming from an traditional smartwatch, not having to think about charging the watch every day is a welcome change. The Bip Max provides a wide range of health and fitness tracking features, including heart rate, blood oxygen, sleep, stress, workouts, and other activity measurements. The stress tracking is particularly interesting because the watch uses physiological information such as heart-rate variability to estimate stress levels. I wouldn’t consider this a replacement for an actual blood-pressure monitor, but it can provide another way to observe changes in your body’s response throughout the day. The watch also works with Zepp Aura, which adds additional sleep and wellness insights, coaching, reports, and other personalized information. I like that Aura Premium is available for people who want more detailed analysis, but I don’t feel that it’s necessary to get value from the Bip Max. The watch itself provides plenty of useful tracking without requiring a subscription. The Bip Max isn’t an traditional smartwatch replacement in every respect. Other smartwatches have much deeper integration with the their respective phone operating systems, a larger app ecosystem, and more extensive communication features. However, the Bip Max does a lot of the things that many people actually want from a smartwatch: it tracks activity and health information, provides notifications, offers GPS and workout tracking, has a bright touchscreen, and provides excellent battery life. And it does all of that without requiring you to charge the watch every day. After almost a week of use, I’ve been impressed with the Amazfit Bip Max. Is it perfect? No, but it’s very useable and at its price point, I think it’s very capable for most smartwatch and fitness tracking functions.

I'll admit from the start that I had never in my life heard of this brand before, so my expectations were kind of low for this smart watch. The unboxing experience didn't really help either as the box was kind of generic feeling and there was nothing included in the box except for the wristband and magnetic charge base. (There is no usb c cable included). Once I powered on the device and put it on my opinion instantly changed. The face of the watch is kind of big so for someone like me who is not used to wearing large watches, it took some getting used to having it on my wrist. The watch feels quite premium, the screen is large and legible for me even from chest / belly button height. The screen is bright enough to see outdoors in this Texas sun. I never once experienced it overheating, or struggling to operate while I worked outside in 100 degree weather. Im not sure how scratch or shatter resistant the screen will be but for now it's holding up good. There are only two buttons on the watch one will take you to workout activity settings and the other will take you to the watch's main menu. I'm not the biggest fan of the wrist band but it's good enough. The watch will display the time, your heart rate, your physical activity stats, temperature, and notifications that are pushed from your phone. To me, that is the biggest convenience feature. I really like that this watch will display my messages, emails, missed calls. Basically any notification that my phone is set to show will be pushed to this watch. Super convenient for keeping my phone in my pocket if I just need to take a quick glance at what came through. It keeps my eyes off my phone and focused on what I am doing throughout the day. The watch will kind of motivate you to get moving and exercise throughout the day so that it's pretty neat as well. I haven't worn it to track my sleep yet because it's too large and I don't think I'll sleep comfortably with it on. The smartwatch also has a companion app that allows you to further control the watch and programs. You can also download custom watch faces, some are free and some you can pay for. All in All I really enjoy this smart watch. It's been helpful for tracking my workout activity at the gym and when I go for walks. It lets me know how many calories ive burned and helps me keep track of calorie intake as well. I think it well be very useful for my weight loss journey. I like its helpful but simple to use features. I would recommend this to anyone wanting a smartwatch without being locked into iPhone or Android. This watch will work with either operating system and doesn't require you to commit to one phone brand.

For this money ! It is a great present for myself. Very light and battery lasts forever! Like many different faces and use it while asleep to see my circle. It is my second week and I am in love.

Really happy with the Amazfit Bip Max so far! The big screen is one of my favorite things—it’s easy to read and navigate. Battery life has been great, and it has all the features I need without being complicated. Great watch for the price!

I had a basic smart watch but I lost it. The new one has more features. I don't have to pay a monthly fee. I can read the time clearly. It does a nice job of tracking my sleep. It has a fairly long battery life. I don't think it is lasting 20 days. I thouhgt it might be too big for my wrist. Now I like the size. I like the watch band, It is comfortable and I like the double loops.
