18 days of typical use with health monitoring — nearly 3 weeks without charging, far beyond any smartwatch competitor.
Ask Alexa for weather, timers, reminders, and smart home controls directly from your wrist — unusual for a sub-$50 fitness band.
Amazfit's Personal Activity Intelligence score aggregates your daily activity into a single 0–100 health index, guiding you toward optimal activity levels.
A 1.34" AMOLED screen, 46% larger than the Charge 6's, with an optional always-on mode and a physical button.
Multi-system GPS for phone-free runs, an ECG app for AFib checks, SpO2 and skin temperature sensing, and an altimeter for elevation.
Up to 7 days per charge, a 5-minute top-up for about a day of use, and a battery you can replace yourself when it wears out.
The right pick depends on what you optimize for.
$50 vs $476 over 3 years.
18 days vs 7 days battery.
5 sensors · 0.5 Hz HR sampling.

Budget-conscious users who want more features than a basic step counter — SpO2, stress, sleep analysis, and workout tracking — without paying for a full smartwatch. Works with both iPhone and Android.
Full details →Anyone who wants a slim tracker with a screen, built-in GPS, and ECG rather than a full smartwatch. It suits Charge owners ready to upgrade, as long as they don't rely on Google Wallet payments or EDA stress scans. Works with both Android and iPhone via the Google Health app.
