Amazfit Beep And Review

Familiar Design

  • 40.9 x 35.5 x 11.4mm
  • 31g (with strap)

Amazfit Bip U is just like the Mi Watch Lite in terms of design and build. It has a polycarbonate body and a silicone strap. Because of the materials used, it is very light at just 31g.

The watch doesn’t feel premium but it does feel very comfortable on the wrist. It also has 5 ATM water resistance which keeps it safe from splashes and sweat.

The most notable difference between the Mi Watch Lite and the Amazfit Bip U is the side button. The one on the Bip U is circular whereas the one on the Mi Watch Lite is rectangular. The physical button can be used to unlock the watch, wake the screen, return to the previous menu, scroll up and down during the workout, and pause it.

Bip U’s display has decent visibility and it is usable under strong sunlight at 100% brightness. But, it does not have an auto-brightness feature as it lacks an ambient light sensor.

Aside from the visibility, the touch response of the Bip U is really good. I did not have any issues with touch response and it was smooth all the time. Furthermore, it supports 50 custom watch faces through the Zepp app.

Tracking and Performance

  • SpO2, Sleep, Heart Rate, Stress Tracking
  • Workout Modes
  • Acceleration sensor
  • Gyroscope sensor

Amazfit Bip U is not a slouch when it comes to tracking. Most importantly, it has a SpO2 sensor that can measure your blood oxygen level. Considering the current situation, this feature is very handful. And, its accuracy is also pretty decent. The oxygen level readings were mostly consistent with a conventional oximeter.

Furthermore, you can also track your heart rate at various intervals from 1 min to 30 mins. If you want a good battery life you should set it to 10 mins. Sleep tracking also monitors your sleep status including deep sleep, light sleep, REM, awake time. The sleep time and awake time are very accurate. I also like the sleep quality score feature as it provides insights for sleep improvement.

Moving on, it has more than 60 workout modes to track your workouts. During the workout, it can track walking distance, speed, heart rate changes, and calories burned. The stress monitoring feature can also help you monitor your stress levels. It also provides breathing training to manage your stress levels.

The overall tracking and performance of the Bip U are very good. I did not face any sort of lags while using the watch and other tracking features.

Battery and Connectivity

  • 230mAh
  • Clip / 2-pins POGO pin charging
  • BLE 5.0

The 230mAh battery on the Bip U can provide up to 9 days of battery life under general usages. If you use the 24-hours stress monitoring and tracking features, you are looking at a 5 day of battery life.

Zepp app from their respective app stores to set up the smartwatch, sync data, and change its settings.

The Zepp app provides a detailed analysis of workouts, heart rate tracking, and sleep tracking. Other features include app and call notifications, remote camera, remote music, weather alerts, timer, phone finder, alarms, and Pomodoro tracker.

To be fair, the Zepp app is much better than Xiaomi’s Xiaomi Wear app. The user experience on the Zepp was much better due to its intuitive and beginner-friendly design.

Conclusion

Amazfit Bip U is a very good beginner smartwatch.
