Band 7 Activity Fitness Tracker for Men Women, 18-Day Battery Life, Alexa Built-in, 1.47”AMOLED Display, 24H Heart Rate & SPO₂ Monitoring, 120 Sports Modes, 5 ATM Water Resistant, Black

I am very happy with this watch. I have previously owned a FitBit so I have been comparing the two. I really like this watch and it's half the price of a FitBit. There are a lot of settings in the app that you need to make sure to change to fit your needs -how often you want heart rate measured, allow access to contacts, make sure you receive notification of text messages and notifications in any other apps that you want to receive. I just received a notification through Google on my watch about a tornado warning, so that was nice! I have a Google pixel phone and it works well with the watch. A couple of differences I noticed between this and the Fitbit are: constant heart rate tracking - this one tracks on intervals which you can set as you want to (1 min, or 10 mins) whereas the Fitbit tracks constantly. Yeah can also track heart rate on demand with the watch. Also this one tracks calories burned during activity whereas the Fitbit estimates the calories burned throughout the day. However I will say that the Fitbit was always grossly overestimating my calories burned anyway, so that feature was of no value to me. The Fitbit I had would often tell me I burned 2500 calories during the day. I am a 5'3 women, if I based my diet around that and ate 2500 calories I would gain a LOT of weight. I should be eating more like 1700 calories, even on days I exercise. So to me that feature on the Fitbit is not accurate. The band is comfortable and the watch face size is perfect - not too big or small. Battery life seems to be really good. I only lost should 10% of the battery charge throughout the day and I received a lot of notifications. Anyway this is a good quality product at a great price. I personally don't see much advantage with a FitBit over this and this is half the price. If you aren't very tech savvy then have someone help you with setting up the app and changing settings etc. to fit your needs.

UPDATED 12-31-2020 [This a a real review] Set up is easy as you download the Zepp app and pair the watch to your bluetooth, then register to sign in. The little band is a bit hard to fasten on your wrist at first as you get used to it, and I have had it come off in bed and once just in everyday use possibly because it wasn't fully secured but more likely due to catching the closure button on something. The read outs are easy to use although the instructions and explanations of functions are somewhat vague. The measurements to input some manual things like blood pressure, body temperature, etc., are only in UK measurements so you have to convert the numbers. Hopefully they will change this for imperial measurements, too. In your profile the standard measurements can be set to imperial or UK so there is no confusion seeing your readouts on your band or in the app. The band itself provides the ability to change around the menus so those you're most interested in can be scrolled to up or down, left or right, quicker. You can rotate your wrist toward you to activate one of the chosen 45+ provided watch faces (the automatic watch face reveal can be scheduled to turn off when you're sleeping) or you can just tap the lower part of the face and the length of time for viewing can be changed, too. Then you can scroll the menu so that side to side brings up Alexa/ Notifications in one directions and Weather/Heart rate in the other as they repeat in a circle. Pulling the screen down reveals More/Workout/Weather/Events/Breathing/Stress/Notifications/SpO2/Heart Rate/PAI/Status before returning back the the watch face. MORE gives you options: DND/Alarm/Camera/Music/Stopwatch/Timer/Find Device/Silent/World Clock/Band Display/Settings. When you use the app to download one of the 45+ watch faces (band display) at least five remain as a choice in the Band Display section for quick change. Settings allows further adjustments to the watch face use and ability to reboot. WORKOUT: Outdoor Running/Treadmill/Cycling/Indoor Cycling/Walking/Elliptical/Rowing Machine/Yoga/Jump Rope/Pool Swimming/Freestyle WEATHER gives you current local conditions and forecast for the next six days. Temperature/Humidity/Level/Quality EVENTS are reminders of upcoming things you input by speaking into the watch. BREATHING is an exercise to calm and relax you. STRESS measures your level between 0 and 100 based on heart and pulse ox and other factors. SPO2, also known as oxygen saturation, is a measure of the amount of oxygen-carrying hemoglobin in the blood relative to the amount of hemoglobin not carrying oxygen. The body needs a certain level of oxygen in the blood or it will not function as efficiently. In fact, very low levels of SpO2 can result in very serious symptoms. You can quickly test here to obtain your SpO2. HEART RATE measures the beats per minute, BPM, and can be set to check this periodically or manually here. PAI is the physical activity intelligence that takes data to provide a number up to 100 showing your activity level, and this number climbs as days pass and it automatically computes the number. You can quickly do a manual test here, too, following the on screen directions. STATUS shows your steps, calories used, distance walked, idle alerts (if so set), and previous days step counts. ALEXA is a nice addition and works well with responses in text format. It is not necessary to say the name, Alexa, just scroll to menu and input your command or question. I often use my Band 5 to turn on/off or command smart lights, plugs, and smart light strips. I can walk in a room and command a light, or change the temperature on the Ecobee Thermostat, if so desired. Very quick responses to questions and computations make this a very nice feature. NOTIFICATION work very well and promptly show on the watch face to be easily read, and can be scrolled if a long message is received. BATTERY LIFE so far seems to be on average around two week at least before a 2 hour charge is necessary using the round magnetically attached plug and short cord. I charged mine after 12 days at 17% remaining charge so it would have gone a full two weeks before going dead. CONCLUSION. There is a lot to explore and I have continued too use a Fitbit Versa for steps and distance as well as another app, MapMyRun, to plot the GPS path and distance. I have not gotten the Amazfit Band 5 to accurately give my distance and show a GPS plotted route like the MapMyRun app provides. However, the step count is more accurate. It may well be that the Versa and MapMyRun app are interfering with the GPS so that Band 5 cannot calculate this properly. I will experiment in time and work with developers to see if a solution can be found, but it's not a big problem for me. MapMyRun's browser data and history with routes is quite satisfactory and I have found history is available when you use the icon in the top right of the Zepp app and see under Exercise Data the Exercise Record where period of time can be selected and individual dates show full data (again, the routes shown and distance/steps are wrong, so far, and still experimenting with this error). The Versa serves as a watch and notifications I can easily read. Band 5 does not provide the ability to switch functions while using the Workout function, but it does show notifications. So you cannot use the Band 5 for anything else during work outs, if I am not mistaken. Note that outside in the sunlight it is very hard to read the screen, however, unless you turn the brightness up under setting to maximum from the default applied to conserve battery. Overall I am very pleased with all the data, including the SLEEP DATA it provides for helping the wearer to better health. A beta Breathing tracking function can be set to check for problems while you sleep and it scored me 99 out of 100. As you turn on things like this it does warn of extra battery use. It could be, and probably will be tweaked so the wearer can more customize it to the wearer's own needs and life. For the price, it is great, and now there is an inexpensive compatible replacement band assortment in 15 colors for easy change to coordinate with your daily wardrobe. As I wear and use the Band 5 I may add more to this review. UPDATE AFTER DST: Strangely the sleep record is not recording on the date it should and runs a day behind. Reporting errors or suggested improvements seems to go unnoticed as the step count is still showing the miles lower than actual, e.g., 3 miles is shown as approximately 2.5 even though the steps are correct, so the stride distance is wrong and possibly due to the GPS not working correctly with my Moto G6 Plus watch. No fix so I depend on my cell's app, MayMyRun, to accurately record this for me.

After several false starts when the band would not sync with the app, it works well. It's a little tricky to put on without being too tight or too loose. I use an elliptical exerciser, but the band does not support it. It would be better for running, cycling or walking. The sleep info is not always entirely accurate, but it gets close. The one touch heart monitor is helpful. It counts steps fairly well, though it overcounts my elliptical steps. Customer service is unusually good, clear and personalized, a real plus. Charges quickly. I don't wear it in the shower so I can't say if it is truly waterproof. Overall, I am happy enough. Update: At week 7, the band unlatched by itself and the crystal broke when it hit the pavement. Again customer service was exceptional, replacing the band and paying for shipping the old one back. Though the new band has unlatched when bumped once or twice, it has not been a big problem. I added a matching small rubber band near the latch several weeks ago. It seems to help.

This watch exceeded my expectations. I wanted an inexpensive fitness watch since I only wear one while exercising, and it’s been very accurate for my runs. It took a little time to calibrate, but when I run with my sister-in-law who has a Garmin, our stats are usually very similar. The free tracking and metrics in the app are great, and the battery life is excellent. I also bought the “used” option and it arrived essentially brand new. Highly recommend!

Honestly would not recommend this watch at all. First, the heart rate monitor and sleep monitor are very inaccurate. I compared the heart rate measurement several times during various levels of rest or exercise with the readings from my blood pressure arm cuff. While I was expecting some inaccuracies maybe plus or minus a few bpm the watch would report 90 bpm when my blood pressure device read 130 bpm and when my blood pressure cuff read 90 this would often read anywhere from 70 to 140. Sometimes tapping the measure button would read 130 and then 2 seconds later read 80. Second, the device has a feature where if you press and hold the screen you can quickly change the watch face. This is extremely annoying as the screen is extremely sensitive and I found if my coat sleeve slid forward it would trigger it, or if I crossed my arms it would trigger it, or just resting my arms in my lap would trigger it. There is no way to disable this feature and with how sensitive the screen is to any kind of touch from anything it gets very frustrating very quickly. Finally, most of these issues could still be overlooked to an extent but after having it for only about four months the screen popped out on me and was dangling by the ribbon cable connecting it to the circuit board. I carefully set the screen back in place and glued it back in using a compound that would seal it from moisture so it wouldn't get damaged further but that didn't last long. I glued it once more with some heavy duty glue but that also failed after about a month. The third time it popped out and I glued it back in the screen had solid white vertical lines so I popped the screen out and discovered parts of the wiring on the ribbon cable had cracked due to the screen hanging freely by it. Now, with no functional screen whatsoever I am unable to turn the device off at all since there is no physical way to turn it off without using the screen. Thankfully I was at least able to turn my alarms off through the Zepp app so it would stop buzzing when sitting on my desk. Overall, this thing is cheap garbage and I wouldn't waste a penny on it. Only reason I give it 1 star is you can't give it 0 and my mom likes it cause she has metal allergies and this is the first fitness tracker she's found that does not have any metal against the skin.

This tracker has all the right ideas, which can be indeed very helpful for anybody who is more or less seriously wants to address his/her fitness and overall health status and optimize the training schedule for maximum benefit, getting results without overachieving and actually hurting him/her itself. It is also compact enough to not be annoying and cumbersome, particularly if you want to sleep in it (to track your sleep quality). Unfortunately, that seems where it ends. The metrics it provide are somewhat confusing and sometime may look contradictory (like showing Training Load to be execessive, so telling you slow down and take some rest while at the same time showing your Exertion for the day is under 50% goal, prompting you to do some workout to catchup). Ok, thats something one can learn to understand, not main problem. The main problem is accuracy - I had if for a month and its not getting any better. I start warm up and it shows BPM shoot to 180. No frigging way, Id feel it. Check by just counting pulse and its as I about feel - 120. Next moment it drops to 88 (too good to be true), count the pulse and its 100. At one point start some easy routing, like Tai Chi, check it in the middle and it shows 48bpm (!) - time to go to emergency. Of course, pulse counting give me 84, as expected and as felt. That means most of the rest of the metrics can go down the drain as most of it based on your heart rate as measured. So definitely, for anything where heart rate varies its virtually useless. A little better for steady aerobics, like cycling - not immediately but eventually it shows about right bpm with about 10% certainty. For swimming though is virtually useless - it can check how many laps you did (yeah, like I dont know) and 'estimate' calories you burned but it cant count heart rate due to water messing up sensors accuracy (so it just does not count it). At night happened now and the I wake up and even get out of bed for short time - in the morning it shows good night sleep with not wake ups (?), does not catch it (though I can see its measuring something when Im up - by red sensors glow when I go to take a leak). But it has 120 (or so) faces (??) - and wtf do I need them for? Maybe a couple could be useful, for everyone's preference, but otherwise unless you are 10 years old and is fascinated by the fact, its absolutely useless feature. So it the end thats what it is seems to be - a toy for kids for budget price. The problem is before I shed $200 and up for better device Id like to be sure its indeed that much better and can provide more or less accurate metrics and Im not sure at all. So for now I stay with it, use it just for general idea but mostly rely on self-assessment, as frankly how it should be and for free too. Otherwise, display is good, phone app for it is working fine (aside from some confusion about metrics shown in different places), charging is ok (lasted for me about week or a little less). Look is fine for me - I would not want more prominent or bright color device on my wrist. Some women might find it a little awkward as its design (who designed it?) is not great - its thing and long and length is actually instead of going along the wrist, goes across, so women or kids with narrow wrist will find it sticking beyond the wrist and it will not help neither its accuracy nor comfort.

I was not expecting much from this watch/fitness tracker since it was so inexpensive compared to all the others but I was pleasantly surprised. It does a great job with the sleep tracking EXCEPT that the app doesn't quite get the "light sleep" and "awake" separated. "Awake" seems to mean getting out of bed and/or moving about. However, I can be awake in the middle of the night and quietly reading and the app still shows "light sleep". That's not a big deal if you're mainly interested in "deep sleep" and "REM sleep". Obviously I don't know how medically accurate these records are (it seems like all the sleep trackers have disputed information) but it is at least a good comparison for your nightly averages. The "steps" app is great and seems to run true with my husband's Apple Watch. I have my favorite daytime watch that I'd rather wear but this Amazfit is small and flexible enough that I just stuff it in my pants pocket during the daytime. Altogether, I'm 100% happy with this little watch and find it perfect for my needs.

This is my first time using a watch. I normally don’t like anything on my wrists, but this one goes unnoticed. I love the fact that it reminds me to stand up and walk when I’m seated for a long time. I’ve been using it for a week now, and I love it. The battery lasts a long time, it syncs with my running app, and the sleep tracking, heart rate, and other features seem accurate. For the price, I really recommend it. I have an iPhone, so I can control music if I open Spotify on my phone, but it also has a remote app for Android. Since I don’t like wearing watches, that’s why I went for something economical just to try it, and it amazed me. I love it and don’t regret buying it at all. It has everything I need for training monitoring. I have no issues with the band, at least for me, it doesn’t open or get loose…

One off the best 👌

I was a little sceptical about buying this after using Fitbits for years. Still I decided to try it since I'd had trouble with Fitbits not lasting very long on recent models. Have to say it's pretty awesome for the price. I was expecting poor quality in the watch or the supporting app. However I'd say the quality is at least as good as Fitbit models that cost twice the price. The Zepp app that it works with is actually better than Fitbits in my opinion and syncs data online in the same way. It's not perfect, the style of band which clips using little studs has a tendency to come loose occasionally. I've seen reports of people having it drop off their wrist many times over a week. However for me it's only happened once in the last three weeks. I will probably buy a better band at some point. The USB charge cable does feel a little cheap, but works well enough. The screen is really excellent though and while it's not high end it's got plenty of Bang for the buck in terms of features.

It works really well and is good lookin’ too. Who needs a Fitbit when there is this little beauty?! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This is the best fitness band in this line. The screen is amazing, perfect size and great 👍🏼

It’s not as fully featured as an Apple Watch, but it tracks my sleep better. Plus it needs to be charged only about once a week, which allows for more consistent sleep/health tracking too (ie. not worrying about having to charge it daily like Apple Watch)
