Amazfit Bip Smartwatch

Amazfit Smartwatch with 45 Days Battery Life

GPS Enabled Smartwatch

Multisport Tracking Smartwatch

Save the Trouble of Frequent Charging

  1. AMAZFIT Bip is equipped with a lithium polymer battery with a 190mAh charge.
  2. Thanks to the battery capacity optimization, low power-consuming display, Sony 28nm GPS chip, RTOS (real-time operating system), and low power-consuming optical sensor, it can last for a whopping 45 days with a typical everyday usage on a single charge.
  3. You can go for 1.5 month hiking or camping, far from any power source, avoid the trouble of carrying power banks everywhere, and not worrying about your battery.

GPS+GLONASS Dual Mode Positioning

  1. Amazfit Bip features a GPS+GLONASS dual-satellite positioning with 22 hours always-on GPS function. This means that the GPS can continuously work for 22 hours.
  2. This long lasting performance is achievable thanks to the 28nm ultra low power consumption Sony GPS chip, which consumes only 1/3 power compared to similar GPS chips; and thanks to appropriate optimization and adjustment undertaken all the time.

Support 4 Sports Modes

  1. Provides detailed sports tracking for outdoor and indoor running, walking, and outdoor cycling.
  2. Under the different sports modes, you can view detailed exercise data such as exercise duration, pace, maximum speed, distance, real-time heart rate, and upslope/downslope height.

Outdoor Smartwatch

PPG Sensor

Smart Notifications

Proper Outdoor Play

  1. Adopts a semi-transparent reflective color display, which means the stronger the light is, the clearer the screen is, and the lower the power consumption will be, which guarantees a long battery life.
  2. Comes with a 1.28'' inch with a resolution of 127 x 127, and a 2.5D Corning glass with anti-fingerprint coating. The reflective color touch screen is Always On to provide the information needed at anytime by simply raising your wrist.

All-Day Heart Rate Monitor

  1. With the PPG Optical Heart Rate Sensor, you can take a manual heart-rate measurement when you need it with the "Single Measurement“. After "Continuous Heart Rate" mode is enabled, the Heart Rate app will display your heart rate per minute (bpm) as well as the average heart rate, maximum and minimum heart rate, and resting heart rate under the non-sports state during the day (You need to wear the watch to sleep before you can get such assessments).

Receive Messages, Call & APP Notifications

  1. Receive notifications for incoming phone calls, SMS messages, emails, and other apps such as Facebook, Twitter, WhatsApp, LinkedIn, and other mobile apps right on the color touch display of your AMAZFIT Bip.
  2. You will also receive reminders if you’ve been sitting too long or vibrations from your alarm clock.
  3. You can exercise or attend a meeting hands free and not miss any important notification.

    Better than expected
    4 Stars
    Better than expected
    I got my device yesterday. I was pumped--a GPS watch that monitors heart rate for under $100? Score. I've been biking more recently, and I wanted something that allowed me to leave my phone home, but Garmin and TomTom watches are way too much for my beginner self. Plus, I don't care about phone notifications, or onboard apps, or whatever, I just wanted a tracker that tells time. I trust "off-brand" products typically, and this watch had what I wanted at a price point I can swallow.For the record, inside the box was the watch, a (useless) manual, and a usb charging cradle. It did not come with a wall outlet adapter, but it's the same 5 volt charger that any cell phone uses, so if you have this watch, you probably also have a cell phone, which means you will have a sufficient charging option.I attempted to set it up before I had to leave yesterday afternoon, but it didn't work immediately so I put it aside until I got back home last night. Then frustration ensued. I wasn't annoyed the first ten minutes. Sometimes devices take a bit longer to connect, whatever. The Bluetooth connection went off without a hitch. Then I started noticing a theme: I tried syncing so that I could "un-brick" the watch, the sync failed, the app attempted to auto-update the firmware, the update failed, the app crashed, I re-opened the app, the Bluetooth connected instantly, it tried syncing, the sync failed...you get it.I tried that for a solid twenty minutes (not because I'm insane; the firmware update said "hold the device closer to the phone" as if the failure were on my end, so I trusted that it was right and assumed I could just angle it slightly better--I was wrong). I power-cycled the phone. I would've done the same for the watch, but there's actually no power option while it's in "screw you" mode.Finally I gave up and looked online. There were some suggestions to download third-party apps that would aid in watch-phone communication. I watched videos in Chinese (I live in Wisconsin, about the farthest place from China in the country--I can count to ten and say thank you, but that's about it). Amazfit FAQ instructed me to go through 4 or 5 troubleshooting steps. I tried it all, to no avail.At that point, I was an hour into messing with this thing, and all I had to show for it was an error message (shown in the attached image). I was pissed, tired, and completely bewildered. I emailed tech support. To this point, about 10 hours later, they haven't responded. Until I hear back, this watch is unusable. I don't care what the cost was, or what the product feels like--if I can't use it, it gets a whopping 1-star rating.If they get back to me and fix it, I will update with the steps to fix and a new rating. If I don't update, it's because my issue was never resolved and I returned it.**UPDATE** They emailed back after a week and many apologies for the delay. After that, there was daily communication, I never felt neglected or forgotten. After I tried a couple more suggestions they gave, I asked about replacing the unit if this one is faulty. They had one final Hail Mary--could I try updating it on someone else's phone? I have an LG G4 from early 2016. My fiance has a Samsung Galaxy S8, so I tried updating it on hers and was successful. If you find a similar problem, give that a shot.I've been using it for a few days now that it works, so now I'll get into performance review:BATTERYWhen I got the watch two weeks ago, the battery level was 86%. I've been using it for 4 days, and it sat idle previously. The battery is at 57% presently. That's constant heart rate monitoring, sleep tracking, two GPS-tracked sessions of soccer kick-around (as "Outdoor Running"), and a rather intense bar-league volleyball game (tracked as "Treadmill" because it was indoors). I haven't yet tried it for cycling, which I initially purchased it for, but I'm certain it won't burn any more battery than outdoor running.Full disclosure, I have every notification turned off and I only sync to my phone daily, so I'm not killing the device with constant Bluetooth. That also means that I can't speak to the ability to send receive phone calls, texts, Facebooks, etc. I don't care, sorry.GPSIt works. It does take about 90 seconds for the watch to find GPS signal, but it never seemed to lose it. I pulled up the map of one of my soccer runs and it was a jumble of lefts and rights. I'm going to take it on a bike ride later along with my phone (tracking with Strava) to see if it tracks well enough to keep long-term.THINGS I DIDN'T THINK I'D CARE ABOUT, BUT ARE NOTICEABLE-Multitasking -- I don't mean Pandora and Google at the same time. I mean a timer and literally anything else. Or tracking and anything else. If you're in one mode, you aren't able to leave the first mode without canceling it. E.g., I set the timer for 20 minutes, ran a bit, and wanted to see what my heart rate was. I had to cancel the timer to get out of it. Even a $10 Timex Ironman can switch screens like that. It isn't a deal breaker, but it is a bit annoying.-Alarms -- You have to set up an alarm on your phone and sync it to the watch, you can't just go into the alarm section on the watch and make a new alarm. Paired with the inability to multitask a timer, that could get frustrating down the road.- Compatibility -- Other Amazfit products are able to sync to Strava, but that's not yet in the cards for the Bip. I expect it will happen eventually, but currently there are two workaround options. They both involve 3rd party apps and a decent time commitment. One is a $2 "Pro" feature in a free app that syncs directly to Strava or Google Fit, etc (didn't try it); the other is absolutely free and 8 times more convoluted, requiring a second 3rd party app, exporting, and a manual upload on the Strava website (not a function on the app).-Mi Fit app -- In short, the app is below average. It's about as basic and stripped down as you can imagine. It's serviceable for sleep info and setting alarms and even looking at your run/ride, but some settings are in different areas than other settings, and it doesn't even offer as many settings as one of the 3rd party apps. It's not awful, just not intuitive.-Watch settings -- There really aren't many options for settings on the watch. It has some onboard watch faces and a brightness setting, and the long button press can strictly be used to as a shortcut to begin an activity. No double press, no other long press option.I'll post after a couple bike rides if I notice anything knocking about it.**UPDATE 11/27/18**I still enjoy the watch, though I would still give it 4/5 stars. With the HR and monitor turned on, the battery lasts about 3 weeks with a bike ride or two per week. When I biked to work for a full week (5 miles each way), the battery was around 50% drained by Saturday. Not bad. Turning off the sleep monitor and HR sensor, I get approximately 6 weeks of battery life with a ride. That's amazing, and still such a win for me.The app has grown on me. It's still not totally intuitive, but when you get the hang of which settings are in which menu, it's not awful. The ride screen is actually nice, offering more details than Strava. It also seems to have a more consistent speed read (fewer peaks and valleys)--unsure if that makes it more or less accurate overall, but it's certainly smoother.Because I'm comfortable with the app, and there still is no link to Strava at last check, I have all but nixed Strava and strictly use the watch app. It's fine for me because I don't have any "friends" on Strava socially anyway, I only used it as a ride-tracking platform. For those of you who need to stay connected, the workaround mentioned previously still works, it just isn't worth it to me.Other than wishing for Strava compatibility and the aforementioned multitasking, this watch is an absolute steal. It does everything in its power well. Would definitely buy again.Unrelated: I don't remember if I mentioned it previously or not, but the watch band width is 20mm, the standard size of Samsung Gear and other smart watches, so customizing watch bands is super easy. I hate the rubber type that came with it, so I got a $5 nylon band for biking and a couple nicer metal bands to wear to work. It's not a bulky "sports" watch by nature, so you can totally pull it off for semi-formal occasions.***UPDATE 2021***We have Strava compatibility. I repeat. We have Strava Compatibility. Huzzah!

    5.0 out of 5 stars what the pebble should have been
    Reviewed in the United States on September 2, 2018
    final update:
    it finally broke. after 2yrs of heavy everyday use.
    i loved this watch. absolutely recommend.
    the battery life was outstanding my entire 2yrs of wearing it. easily a full month of use on each charge.
    below is a detailed review of my life with this watch:

    ====
    day 1)
    this watch is everything i wished the pebble watch was. ridiculous battery life, always-on screen, nice-looking (looks like the Apple watch, i been told so by Apple-watch owner), heart rate, GPS, pedometer, sleep tracking, thousands of watch faces, nice fitness tracking info in the app, and syncs with Google fit too

    the only negative is that the contrast of the display isn't as sharp as it is on my Garmin vivosmart, but this may just be what happens with color e-ink displays. mind you, it's still very easily visible, plus has the backlight in case you need to see it in the dark, but it's just not quiet as clear as a black+white e-ink.

    gps and heart rate are both very accurate for running. they're not perfect, but way better than the phone gps or products wo GLONASS. i think this thing uses a Sony GPS-Glonass chip. I'm guessing the heart rate is better for steady activities than high intensity ones. I'll check and update the review later

    day 9)
    haven't recharged this watch since the day i got it. that was 9 days ago. i have been playing around with it a LOT, changing watch faces a bunch, set it to constant HR tracking for a few days, used the GPS on 4 runs, and i still have 67% battery left. so that's very impressive.

    the watch looks elegant

    i don't like to wear a watch when i sleep, so i can't tell you anything about sleep-tracking, but i imagine this would be one of the better devces for sleep tracking, both because of the lack of a need to recharge it, and because it's really light and thin.

    the screen is really clear and nice looking in direct light (unlike most modern smartwatches that fade in direct sunlight), and it has a nice backlight for low-light situations, as well.

    i have not taken the watch swimming, but i wash it under water after every workout, and it seems to do just fine under water.

    maybe the best thing i've found out about this watch is that there are 3rd party watchfaces and customization/stat apps (e.g. Notify & Fitness for Amazfit by OneZeroBit). plus it syncs with 3rd party exercise apps (google fit, apple health, run keeper, etc.).

    day 14)
    i lost like 20% battery life over the course of 2 days using a custom watchface that had a seconds hand. it seems like having seconds displayed on your watch will drain the battery even more than continuous HR monitoring. imean you'll still get an impressive 10+ day battery life or more, but, if my hypothesis is right, if you want a full month of battery life, don't display seconds on the bip.

    anyways, with all that recent battery drain and other heavy use and testing, I'm still at 39% battery after 2 weeks.

    i am a very happy customer.

    day 107)
    it's been 3 and a half months, and i've logged many runs and workouts at this point.
    this will probably be my last review update, as i've had plenty of time with the watch at this point

    the good:
    - i've only charged the watch a total of maybe 4 times, and never because i had to -- i always had 10-30% still left. i dont know why i had the incessant need to recharge it below 30%, the bip could've easily given me an extra week of use at that point.
    - traveling with this watch is the best -- you simply do not need to take a charger for it. it will easily last multiple weeks, regardless of how heavy your use is.
    - there are many additional watchfaces you can grab for the bip via 3rd party apps (and make your own!), and i found one that i just love, that has both digital and analog time displayed, along with steps/date/day/bt/battery/hr/weather. i don't think many other watches have this level of customization. definitely not android-wear or apple watches.
    - i wash this watch after every workout and can attest that waterproofing is solid
    - it's a beautiful watch. thin, light, elegant, and you can easily change out straps (im fine w the default strap, but 2 of my friends have both changed theirs to one that looks like an apple-watch sports band)
    - GPS and HR monitors work great, and the pace/stride info seems very accurate
    - the display is always clear and always on

    the bad:
    - one bad thing is that if you want to leave your phone at home when you go for a run with the bip, you will be without music. i guess you can get headphones that can store music on them, but the watch itself has no music player.
    - the default app does not show you a calendar view of your workouts the way that Garmin did. i miss that view. you can have it automatically synced with google fit, but...
    - google fit sync is not the best. it logs all the walks, which is a lot of activity in the google fit journal that i just do not want. i wish there was an option to log only runs, not walks. HR is not synced w google fit for some reason tho, wish it was

    overall:
    - [if u dont need it to be a standalone mp3 player] buy it. this watch is on par to compete with some of the best smartwatches and activity trackers, except it beats all of them when it comes to battery life and price.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Battery Life is Amazing!
    Reviewed in the United States on December 1, 2019
    I've had 3 smartwatches over the past few years including the Apple watch and the Samsung S3 Frontier. Both of those watches are great. However, I'm simply tired of having to charge them every other day. It gets old. So, I decided to look for a watch that could go the distance while providing me the information I needed in a watch.

    I've seen the Amazfit Bip before selling for much less than my previous watches and after about a year, I decided to give it a try. The 45 day battery life was the key, but, would it provide the data I wanted? I want to always see the time and local weather at a glance.

    I bit the bullet and ordered the watch. It comes close to looking like an Apple watch although I prefer a round one. Amazfit makes round watches, but again, I sacrificed this over battery life.

    There are literally thousands of watch faces to choose from and all are free unlike the ones you can get for the Samsung watch. That's a bonus. The big difference is display resolution. You won't get the brilliant display in the Amazfit. Its pixel resolution is much lower. So if you need OLED watch displays and that's a deal breaker for you, this watch will let you down. However, they do have one with a better display out now.

    I loved the watch face on my Samsung but again, the battery drains like crazy. In order to get two days of life, you have to basically shut off most of the features the watch is known for.

    With the Bip, that is not the case. The display is always on and is brilliant in direct sunlight. Its reflective. The downside is that in low light conditions you'll need the backlight to brighten the display. But a simple press of the button or flick of the wrist solves that problem.

    It's also very basic watch. No added widgets, a few menu selections, and that's about it. It connects to an app on your phone that can do most functions and track lots of fitness and sleep data. I find it is very useful with many options to select from.

    The weather information it displays can be customized from 4 different sources and I find Dark Sky weather source to be most accurate for my area. It can be updated in many different intervals. I choose every hour. The good thing about Dark Sky is that they update their conditions a few times every hour so whenever your watch catches the latest update, the information is current. That's a bonus for weather geeks like me.

    After days of using the watch, I have found it to be very accurate and much better than the Samsung source which is determined by whatever watch face you select.

    I took a walk and used the GPS, it came out really accurate for me and the app provided me the route and a map to review. It even animates your route to show you how you moved about it at various time intervals. Basically, the app compliments the data the watch provides very well.

    Sleep with the watch is easy because I haven't had to charge it yet and the data it collects appears accurate.

    The heart rate monitoring sensors can be set to always monitor your heart rate but I set it for every minute. It's reliable enough to be useful. But I didnt buy the watch for that anyway.

    After 11 days of use, my battery has drained from 100% to 70%. The app says my next charge is due on Dec 21, 2019. I charged it on Nov 20, 2019. WOW!

    I'm simply amazed at the battery life, the watch face with time and accurate weather at a glance, and the easy to use features of the watch.

    While I like the watch, it's not for everyone. You need to decide what your deal breakers are. If low resolution display is one, pass on this version and look at some other options like the Amazfit GTS.

    I posted some pics, including the watch that now sits on a shelf, the S3 Frontier. Although it's a beauty of a watch, the fact that I have to charge it every other day is the biggest disappointment along with the frustrating inaccurate weather some watchfaces provide.

    To sum it up, imagine Casio making a smartwatch!

    Pros: Battery life, simplicity, gazillion watch faces
    Cons: Display resolution, simplicity (if you like to add widgets)
