Amazfit - Active

If you really care about your metrics, personally and if it's possible i'll choose an Amazfit Active / Active 2, or a second handed Balance

I've been using the Amazfit Active for a while now and I really like it. Before I bought it I was between that and the Bip 5. I ended up getting the Active because it went on sale for 80. The fitness items are really robust and IMO it looks nicer than the Bip 5. It also has some stronger materials than the bip 5 that I like cause I do a lotta work around the house and it helps to have a watch that can stand up a bit of a beating.

It went back up to $109, but that's temporary, because it's price history says its mostly been at $80, so I have it droplisted on Honey. Honey is annoying af, but I can droplist items and get notified if the price falls over 5%.

Just bought it when it dropped. Gotta be better than my fitbit charge 5, it was shutting off several times a day, and the only way to restart it was to plug it in to charge.

I have an Amazfit Active that I use both in the pool and on a lake. It seems to do good with both. Its distance reports a little further than my sister’s Apple Watch, but it was comparatively cheap.

Could be fake reviews. Amazfit (by Xiaomi) are legit and very cheap as well.
