Thank you for taking the time this very comprehensive review. It was the most helpful video for me that I have seen. My Apple Watch broke and it's out of warranty and This watch based on your review is the best watch to buy to tie me over till the new Apple Watch is released. Thanks again.

Seems like Amazfit releases a new watch every week but is this one worth it? The Amazfit Bip 5 retails for $89 in US. Watch the video to see if it's worth it! I forgot to mention in the video, but this watch is compatible with Apple and Android phones!

Good morning, Can the stopwatch run in the background? If you start the stopwatch and exit the function just long enough to change music or look at a notification, does it continue to run once you return to it (without resetting it to 0 each time)? THANKS ! :)

Great video review! Thanks for the in depth information. I plan on buying an Amazfit watch just for basic needs. Do you think the Bip 3 would work for me rather than spending more money on the GTS 4?
@techgadgets100
8 ай бұрын
I think the Bip 3 is being discontinued. This video was for the Bip 5 pro, a typo maybe? The GTS 4 is a great watch but I think the Bip 5 pro would definitely fit your needs for a "basic" watch and probably much more. And it is cheaper than GTS 4, so I would recommend the Bip 5 pro.

Thank you for your video! I am currently having a nervous breakdown with my Bip5. Got it in October and can't get any settings to last more than a day. Also, just locked the watch by accident and can't figure out how to unlock. Can you help me? Thank you again!
@techgadgets100

OK, I might have some good news! If you locked the screen through the quick toggles, then all you need to do is hold the button for a moment. Then the screen will light up, keep holding the button until it unlocks. then if you dont want the feature- toggle it off in the quick toggles. it will be lit up in blue if it is active. If you used the off wrist lock, then you need the password. Hopefully you remember it- it should be 4 or 5 numbers. for the settings, not sure what is going on with that. Are you putting the watch in a battery saver mode? this will disable a lot of features. You could do a factory reset- it is quick. what settings are changing? let me know if any of that helps

@@techgadgets100 yes I get that. I was planning to buy one but I hesitated because some review said that the insights for the readiness is a paid subscription. So I'll just stick with the basic Amazfit Bip 5 for now although I'm missing the Zepp coach feature. I guess I'm needing additional reasons to upgrade from Bip5 to Amazfit Active or Balance. 😊 I guess the paid subscription for the Zepp aura is a Con. If the readiness insight is really a paid feature after the 30 day trial, it might be a wiser decision of getting the Garmin for the training readiness feature for long term use.
@techgadgets100

You do get a readiness score each morning, this lists the physical and mental recovery, sleep RHR and HRV, breathing quality and temp changes. I show this in the video and what I show in the video is free. The readiness insight is the paid subscription which per Amazfit, "Generated using a Knowledge Base developed by a team of sleep health experts, the insights make it easier to understand your Readiness score and come with practical guidance to help you regain your balance." I got the subscriptions services- Zepp Aura and readiness insights for free for 3 months with a few of my Amazfit purchases but I did not even activate them because I am very against this new subscription service for everything mentality. And I figured most people felt the same, so I wanted to show viewers what the watches can do WITHOUT a subscription. The Bip 5 is a great watch and a good value. You can always "accidently" break it- and then you would have to upgrade.

what is the difference between this and the Amazfit Active? i cant decide which one to get
@techgadgets100
9 ай бұрын
The active does everything that the Bip 5 can do. the active has a slightly smaller but AMOLED display, which gives you the option of having an always on display. The active gives you the Zepp coach. It has the readiness score, which tells you how rested you mind and body are. You can import routes for offline tracking. I think those are the big differences, besides the price. $79 vs 149. Check out the Amazfit website for the finer details, but if you are not interested in any of the above features, you could save some money with the Bip 5.

Is this better then the Amazfit GTR 4?
@techgadgets100
8 ай бұрын
In a word no. but it is less than half the price...I think both are great watches and if you dont need the extra features, the Bip 5 is great. But the GTR 4 does offer more even though it is older. It does have an AMOLED display with better resolution and an AOD. It has a slightly longer battery life. It has an extra button and a rotating crown which is really helpful. Amazfit did add the AI coach to the GTR 4. The GTR 4 has other advanced features like the ability to import GPX files for offline tracking. But the basics are the same and the Bip 5. I think, as you see in the video, that the Bip 5 gives you a lot for the price.

There are so many available smart watch options that I think it is important to show what features you get with the watch you are planning to buy and which you don't. Many viewers like this information because if they don't need the extra features they can save money and buy a watch that has just what they need. For this video, I compared the HR, step counter, GPS, sleep tracking etc, to the Samsung Watch 5 Pro and Watch 6 Classic, which I have not heard any complaints about the accuracy of those devices. In the video, I did mention that the Amazfit Bip 5 was consistently within 1% of Samsung's data. At this price, I thought that was excellent. You are right, in that I could have shown actual data between the 2 watches, but I find that to be boring when I watch other videos, so I left it out. Thanks for watching!

Blood pressure is harder, remember they have to get FDA or equivalent approval in each country that they sell to. This feature, so far, is only reserved to top tier watches. They include a thermometer in the Amazfit Active, if thats of interest.
