Customer Ratings & Reviews

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.

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’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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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 liked it but it was not tracking my sleep correctly so i exchanged it for the amazfit balance 2 xt that was onsale.

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!

This product is good but the fact that Amazfit is so lazy to not even include an USB cable is just stupid on their end. The other big issue is the watch you need to put the bands on the watch. Plus the band will make your skin bad if you leave the band on too long. You probably will want to replace the band immediately.

Amazfit - Bip Max Smartwatch 50mm Silicone - Silver - (2026) This Bip Max Smartwatch really has a lot going for it. 1. It has super battery life. A charge can last for up to 20 days. (This eliminates the constant need for recharging the watch every day. This can really be important for those times when you don't want to have to carry the watch charger around with you.) 2. It has a large watch face (2.07 inch AMOLED display) with easy to read characters, and it provides lots of information, including: The day of the week. The date (day and month). The current time (the hour, minute and whether it's AM or PM). And it can be easily changed to show the time zone you're in when you're travelling. It continuously updates the watch face to show the number of steps you've taken each day. It monitors and shows your heart rate, And finally, it shows a number of various other health items that you can choose to show. Since I take longer daily walks (around five to ten miles) over different routes each day, having this watch keep tracks of my steps (I shoot for at least 10,000 steps each day) is a really nice feature. There was one unexpected chore that made getting started with this watch a bit unpleasant for me. The two sides of the watch band weren't attached to the watch, which meant that before I could get up and running, I had to attach the two parts of the watch band - a not-so-easy chore that I would have preferred not to have had to tackle just to get started with the watch. (I subtracted one star from my review for this.) Once the band was attached, I put it on and wore it continuously for several days. During that initial test period, I found that it did a great job of not only telling me the time, but that it also gave me a lot of valuable and helpful additional information (day, date, number of steps, heartrate, etc.). This watch has a lot going for it, and it's certainly reasonably priced for all the features that are included. If you're like me, you'll wonder how you ever got along without it. built for those who want an everyday smartwatch that can keep up with everything they try.

So I just received and have been using the Amazfit Bip Max Smartwatch for a few days now and have been putting it through its paces. This is the first time I’ve used this brand before, so I’m kinda going in blind. But so far I’ve been somewhat impressed by it.

Unboxing: * AmazFit Bip Max Smartwatch * Silicone Wrist Band * Magnetic Charging Base * User Manual/Documentation Note: It does not come with a USB-C charging cable, so you will need to provide that yourself.
 First up, the thing that stood out to me was the huge 2.07-inch AMOLED display. It is bright, colorful, very easy to read, and honestly just looks really good on the wrist. Setup through the Zepp app (download available of AppStore for iOS or Google Play Store for Android) was pretty straightforward and there are a ton of health and fitness features packed into this thing. You get heart rate, sleep, blood oxygen and stress tracking along with built-in GPS, offline maps and plenty of different workout modes. There is definitely more here than I will probably ever use, but I would rather have the features and not need them than need them and not have them. My other smartwatch which costs 8 times the price of this watch usually lasts a good day and a half sometimes before I have to recharge. But the AmazFit Bip Max blows that outta the water. Rated at up to 20 days depending on your settings and usage, that’s amazing. 
 Overall, I have really enjoyed using the Amazfit Bip Max. The large AMOLED display looks great, it is comfortable to wear, battery life is excellent and there are plenty of health, fitness and smartwatch features packed into it. For the price, I think Amazfit did a really good job with this one and I would definitely recommend it. One thing I will say that needs much-needed work on is attaching the bands. I almost put it back in the box because it was a tad bit frustrating trying to attach the band. Work on this and for the price point this would be a solid 5-star buy. However, I still recommend it to those getting their first smartwatch or someone that just can’t pass up that amazing screen and battery life.

I picked this up because I wanted a smartwatch without the smartwatch price, and the first thing that struck me is how little I think about it. It goes through 3-4% of its battery a day. That's not a typo. Compared to the nightly ritual a Samsung or an Apple watch asks of you, this thing just sits on my wrist and works. I put it on, and days later it's still nowhere near needing a charge. At night, I don’t have to look at the charge before turning in. Sleep tracking is only useful if the watch is actually on you overnight, and it is, because I'm never pulling it off to top it up. On the core job of being connected to your phone, it holds up. Notifications come through, updates come down, and health data syncs over without me managing it. It works with either Android or Apple, which is more than you can say for the obvious alternatives — nobody has to switch phones to wear one of these. The tracking covers what most people actually want to know: steps, heart rate, oxygen level, sleep, and stress. Core statistics, no fuss. And the basics are all there on the watch itself — alarm clock, timer, stopwatch, calendar, voice memos. The stuff you really need is exactly where you’d like to find it. There are watch face options to meet most people’s needs. If there’s not one there, just remember: It’s a smart watch, not a fashion piece. Now the catch, and it's the honest trade-off at the heart of this watch. There's no app store, so companion apps are few. There are no payment apps either. You’ll have to pull out your wallet at the register like it’s 2017 again. This is not the watch to get if it’s going to be your only device. It’s designed as an accessory and priced like it. It’s also why the battery does what it does. You're not running an ecosystem on your wrist; you're running a watch that tracks your health and shows you your notifications. Strip out the app store and the payments and you get a week-plus of battery instead of a nightly charge (20 days per the manufacturer). For me that's a trade I'd make again, and I'd make it at this price without thinking twice. Bottom Line: If you want the useful 90% of a smartwatch — notifications, real health tracking, the everyday tools — and you'd rather have battery life than an app store, this is a lot of watch for the money and an easy recommendation on either Android or iPhone. If tapping to pay or loading up third-party apps is why you want a smartwatch in the first place, spend the extra and get an Apple or Samsung. You'll be charging it every night, but you'll get what you came for.

I genuinely enjoyed using the Amazfit Bip Max. I wasn't really sure what to expect from a watch at this price, especially since I already have a watch that I use daily for my running and training, but I came away pretty impressed. First, despite having "Max" in the name, I don't think the watch feels too big. I actually really appreciate the larger screen. It's bright, easy to read, and I had no problem seeing my stats while running outdoors. For me, the biggest surprise was how capable it is as a fitness watch. I tested it on my runs, including an easy run where I added strides toward the end, and there is a surprising amount of data available afterward. I could look at my pace, heart rate, cadence, stride length, vertical oscillation, ground contact time, training load and training effect. During my strides I could even see my cadence and stride length increase and my ground contact time drop. That's the kind of information I normally associate with more serious running watches, so seeing it here was impressive. I also like that it has a microphone and speaker. Having audio cues that I can actually hear while I'm working out is a small feature, but it's something I really appreciate. Outside of running, it still does everything I would expect a smartwatch to do. I also wore it to sleep and liked how much information the Zepp app gave me afterward. It tracked my sleep duration, sleep stages, sleeping heart rate and respiratory data and put everything into an easy to understand sleep score. There's honestly quite a bit to explore in the app between workouts, recovery and everyday health tracking. Is it going to replace my current daily training watch? Probably not, but I also don't think that's really the point of this watch. For the price, I think the Bip Max makes a ton of sense for a beginner or novice who wants to get more serious about their fitness without immediately spending hundreds of dollars on a dedicated sports watch. That's ultimately what impressed me the most. It works well as an everyday smartwatch, but it doesn't feel like fitness and running were just thrown in as an afterthought. It's a genuinely capable workout watch too. For the price, I think Amazfit packed a lot into the Bip Max and I really enjoyed my time with it.

Amazfit is an internationally acclaimed brand that has offered smartwatches to millions of users in over 90 countries since 2015. Amazfit is owned by Zepp Health, a health technology company built to serve wellness & fitness enthusiasts.    Amazfit just released the new Bip Max Smartwatch in 2026. This smartwatch features a bright 50 millimeter screen, and a strong, lightweight aluminum alloy body. I primarily wear this smartwatch during workout sessions. I love how easy it is to glance at the large screen, where I can capture health related data on the fly! I use the free Zepp app, a comprehensive fitness app. The heart rate tracker, onboard sensors for steps, miles, oxygen, and built-in GPS are particularly beneficial.    CONCLUSION:    Amazfit Bip Max offers tremendous value for the money. It costs a fraction of pricing associated with popular smartwatches, and syncs with both Apple iPhones and Android phones. Battery life for average use is 20 days! Bip Max earns my recommendation for an economical smartwatch.   

I've owned a few smart watches from a few different price point but this Amazfit is probably the cheapest one so far. So to be perfectly honest, my expectation was pretty low. Well, I was quite happily surprised at how good this watch is. Now this comes with a caveat, it is really really good at this price. But compared to my previous daily smart watch, which is on the higher end of cost, every feature was just a little behind my more expensive watch. Would I have noticed the difference if I had not owned/used a more expensive watch? Probably not. That shows how good this Amazfit is. It does about 90% of my previous daily and was a little bit slower but does all the important things and does it pretty well. The form of this watch, imo, is no the most appealing but it is the most functional. It is big at 50mm and for this old man's eyes, it was great. The amoled display was bright and crisp making reading anything on the screen easy. My last daily was 47mm which was the largest I could find at the time and it did help me ready messages and the like, but this is much better. It is square and thick, but light enough so not to be uncomfortable wearing all day. But, imo, doesn't look the best but not that bad. The app is good, not great, but really covers all the bases that most of us need and use. Where the watch shine is really the battery life and internal gps. I was very surprised that at this price, these 2 features was included, gps, and battery life was so good. The main reason most of people use these watches is for the health monitoring and the Amazfit does a really good job. I had a couple of hiccups but nothing to make me hate it. I also noticed some lag and hiccups in different operations but I think most watches has it once in a while. If you are looking for a very affordable and capable smart watch, this is it. Does everything the more expensive ones does at an unbelievable price.

TLDR: While the tracker offers a ton of useful features, I can’t get over how amazingly cheap the device looks and feels. The phrase “Temu Fitbit” comes to mind. Review: I had a lot of hope when I started wearing the Amazfit Bip Max. I needed a replacement for my 5- or 6-year-old Fitbit Sense watch/tracker and this seemed to check every box. It offers tons of fitness tracking options and has stellar battery life. In my own testing against my Fitbit, the tracker was always within 10% of my total steps, bike journeys, and total calories burned, so I really can’t complain about the accuracy either. It has lots of options for exercise tracking, even activities that I would think are hard for a fitness tracker to accurately track (HIIT workouts, for example). The tracker and the companion Zepp app are VERY full-featured—almost comically so. I had a hard time thinking of something the device couldn’t track. And, yes, it has great battery life. At 7 days, it still had 24% battery life remaining before I charged. But rarely does being too-full-featured result in a poor score, and rest-assured that’s not the reason for my rating. So, what gives? Why does a tracker with lots of features, great battery life (legit 10 days!), and a decent price deserve a 3-star review? In short, the quality. Not only is the device comically ugly and unsightly to look at, but it also feels like a joke. The device is large (hence the “max” naming) at 2”, but it’s also thick. It sticks out atop of your wrist literally twice as far as my Fitbit. Some of that size could likely be attributed to the battery needed to power the large screen and long life, but the Fitbit gets similarly good battery life and doesn’t stick out. One of my family members asked if it was a real watch because they assumed it was a kid’s toy. I can't fault them for thinking so. Additionally, every physical interaction with the device left me feeling “meh”. It was just plastic-y and cheap feeling. And given its size and bulk, that plastic-y feeling was significant enough to make me not want to wear it. I honestly wonder how durable the device is because it sure doesn’t portray the feeling of a well-put-together tracker. My advice: skip Bip Max and spend a few more dollars on one of the Fitbit devices, or a legit smartwatch if you can swing it. This is one of those devices that you’ll shelf a few months after purchase, despite its robust feature set.

I have been a fan of Amazfit Watches now, and when I read about this new Bip Max smart watch, I had to check it out. Amoled screen GPS, phone calls and text messages, large bright screen, 10-15 day battery life, all for under 10- bucks, this sounded too good to be true.. Well it is ALL True, this is the absolute best value to price proposition in the entire smart watch marketplace. it has all the main health features that most people look for, it tracks my sleep pretty well, and its so easy to see outside in bright sunlight. I have always preferred round watches, and never liked the overpriced Apple watches, with their non exisitant battery life, and their overpriced bands, but, for a incredible low price for the features provided, I could easily learn to love a rectangular watch. You cant use it as a payment option, and the screen is pretty much a fingerprint magnet, but there are nice screen protectors for a low price that you can install to help with the fingerprint infestations. Amazfit is very impressive with software and firmware updates, and I have received several updates in the few days of using this watch. So, if you are watching your spending, but want a cool feature packed easy to see everywhere smart watch, with a fantastic battery life, look no further, this is the watch you want!

This watch is fine, but it has some drawbacks as well as plus. For sure back is starting to watch band, which is fine as far as bands go it’s rubber. But one main drawback is installing it, which is not easy to do. It took me a long time to figure it out and work it because it has some kind of pin thing to attach it. It’s not as simple as it looks. They’re being sent. I would say as remarkable battery life I’ve been able to use it for like 24 hours. In the 24 hours I lost 10% of charge and it’s a piece of cake to recharge, but the charger is a tad bit convoluted. He uses USB-C to charge which is awesome because of an iPhone so I just plug it into the charger. It takes about 30 minutes to go from 93% to 100 the screen is bright and easily read. It does offer a screen on all the time which is fine, except I’m not in bright light. It dims out, so I have to hit the button the display what time it is. All that being said, my only complaint really is a bill quality which is fine but it’s plastic. Maybe I’ve just been ported by the aluminum body of the Apple Watch but as far as a simple timekeeper goes, this fine. It’s good for keeping track of your steps per day as well as your sleep time and heart rate Overall is a fine watch is not my first choice
