Light but plastic pod, fiddly velcro strap

Each part is rated on one scale for every smartwatch and band, from reviewers' accuracy tests and measured battery life where they exist, what reviewers found, specs and owner reports. It rates the product itself, not how good it is for the price.

Pros

  • Upper-arm heart rate matched reliable references in a hard session
  • Can broadcast heart rate to gym machines and bike computers
  • About a week per charge
  • Comfortable and discreet
  • Easy voice food logging
  • Mostly accurate heart rate against a chest strap
  • Sleep tracking solid against three reference devices

Cons

  • Heart-rate zones awkward to set, which skews strain and BioCharge
  • Auto workout detection misses sessions
  • Sleep never shows any time awake; deep sleep looks high
  • Velcro strap hard to slip on and may wear
  • Training plans need an Amazfit watch
  • Can overestimate heart rate on long runs
  • Readiness advice less detailed than Whoop
  • the5krunnerJul 2025

    Worn on the biceps it matched trusted heart-rate sources through an 80-minute HYROX-style session (on the wrist it was only fair); a cheap, capable Whoop alternative that still needs polish.

  • TechRadarJan 2026

    Against a chest strap it sometimes ran about 10 bpm high on long runs but was spot-on in other workouts, and sleep held up next to a Forerunner 970, Polar Loop and Coros Pace 4; terrific value with no subscription.

  • Indian review at Rs 8,999: light, quiet, subscription-free tracker whose real strength is the Zepp app; heart rate and sleep looked right in use, but no reference test was done.
