In this guide
Amazfit smartwatches are now stocked at CEN, from the £79.90 Bip 6 to the £549.90 T-Rex Ultra 2 — AMOLED screens, GPS, multi-day battery life and no subscription to use the features you paid for.
Where Amazfit fits
The pitch is straightforward: most of what a flagship smartwatch does, at a fraction of the price, with battery life measured in weeks rather than days. If you've been put off smartwatches by nightly charging, this is the range that fixes it.
The families, briefly
Bip (from £79.90) — the entry point, covering notifications, activity, sleep and long battery life.
Active (from £99.99) — everyday fitness watches in round and square designs, with the Active 3 Premium at £169.90 the sweet spot for most buyers.
Balance (from £199.99) — the all-rounders, with smarter training analysis and a more premium finish; the Balance 2 is £299.99.
Cheetah (from £169.90) — built for runners, with the race-focused Cheetah 2 Pro at the top.
T-Rex (from £279.90) — rugged outdoor watches for hiking, climbing and anything likely to involve mud or a knock.
Our take
Smartwatches sit naturally alongside the outdoor and photography kit we already sell — the same customers buying power stations and action cameras generally want something on their wrist that survives the weekend. If you're choosing between families, tell us what you actually do: runners, hikers and people who mostly want notifications all want different watches, and the price difference between them is significant.
Frequently asked questions
Do Amazfit watches work with iPhone and Android?
Yes — the Zepp app supports both. Some features vary by phone platform, so tell us which you use and we'll flag anything relevant.
Which model is best for running?
The Cheetah range is built specifically for runners, with the T-Rex series better suited to rougher outdoor use. The Active line covers everyday fitness well.
How long do the batteries last?
Far longer than most smartwatches — many models run one to two weeks of typical use, and the rugged models longer still.
Is there a cheap one worth having?
The Bip 6 at £79.90 is the entry point and does the core job — notifications, activity and sleep tracking, long battery life — properly.
