Terrific, detailed review, thanks so much! Let's all remember.....It's a budget watch. Cannot expect a $69 watch to compare to a $450 specialized smart watch. Even the specialized watch cannot be compared to a 12 lead ECG. This watch allows everyone to become more aware of their health and if it gets more people to take better care of themselves, it's worth it's weight in gold.

Which smartwatch can be best for heart rate tracking
Glad you included this on your channel even know it's not a perfect watch. I ordered one because I'm a casual runner who just wants gps without having to take my phone with me. I was going to get the fitbit charge 5, but after seeing this for half the price and better accuracy it's a no brainer.

I still prefer to take my phone with me as I sometimes run on trails or when it's getting dark and if I have an emergency I'd like to be able to call for help, plus my mom is getting on in years and I'd just as soon that she be able to contact me at all times just in case. Also I sometimes listen to music and need my phone for that. But I got this watch specifically because it has its own GPS (several in fact) as my previous fitness watch relied on my phone's GPS which could be very inaccurate, sometimes adding miles to my run for no apparent reason. Plus I like its auto-pause feature which my previous watch didn't.

Yeah, it's a good budget watch. It gets a 5/10 score and that's perfectly acceptable at the price point. It does everything as advertised and doesn't disappoint.
I'd buy that over any Fitbit, any day of the week.
Found video interesting and helpful. I've actually got one of these on order. I'm 68 and I love walking (30-50 miles a week). Your review has me feeling that for what I'm doing this is probably a great selection for me. Thanks for all the research and quality presentation.

I purchased Bip 3 Pro’s for my husband and me on Amazon and they were on sale for $55. I had originally thought about getting it for my mother so I could use the GPS tracking to know her location on her walks but I don’t think it will work for that. But for $55.00 it was perfect for us to track our daily activity and - heck - just to use as a watch to know what time it is without having to go look for my phone! It’s taking me some time to learn the functions but I am pleased with the purchase. My husband has Parkinson’s and it like the “Stand Up” alert. That was something I tried for us to do every hour but didn’t last too long before the watch. Like the long battery life, too. I had purchased a fit-bit several years ago and it’s amazing how much technology has improved and cost come down. I rate the watch 8/10. Thanks for your review. Very thorough and educational as I am not a techie.

Wow great deal!
just getting started running long(er) distance and really appreciate your video. I am still working up to my first half marathon so I am not as serious as yourself, but that makes your research perfect for a person like me. Thanks very much!
Thanks for the review. I needed something to help me track my steps as I’m doing a fitness journey starting September 1. I wanted to get the Apple Watch but had issues with my provider so I looked on Best Buy and they had this watch $20 off! So I had to get it. With the $20 saved I got the 2 year geek squad protection. I just want it for fitness and health. Don’t need the other apps or emails stuff like that 😇
Just thought I mention that for females it has a menstrual cycle tracker that is also useful. I got one recently, I'm not an seriously active person, i use it for recreational activities and also for step tracking etc. and phone accessibility as my phone is mostly in my backpack. Great watch if you are not a fitness maniac 😜and just want general readings and health tracking.
I'm just into recreational running and cycling. I've been using the original Amazfit Bip for years, all year. It's such a little trooper, no matter if coldest winter or hottest summer. Now I wanted something with a SpO2 sensor. Just ordered the 3 Pro for 50 EUR, thanks for the video :D
Just got one now, Thank you for the great review!. Excited to test it out and see how well it works.
I really appreciate you put the watch through the paces and giving a thorough comparison to watches more than 10x the price. You gave realistic expectations for the money and if it's worth the cost. I'm not a runner. I don't really care about GPS, or heart rate. The features that attract me are basically not having to carry my cell phone all the time. I like the watch, being able to tell time, helping me meet the schedule of my day, some of the other features that give remote access to my cell phone, like shutter control, call rejection, notifications, etc. As a sports watch it will track my steps. Everything else is gravy. You made it clear this is a great bargain for me. Thanks.
I have the first Bip. They've come a long way! Thank you 😊
Was looking for reviews on the Amazfit Bip 3 and yours is one of the best ones, thank you for your insight! What's interesting to me is that, although you're from MA, those clips at the end look identical the Foothills of NorCal, as I see them often haha.
Ok this was a really deep review. Amazed by how much this watch can do.
Thanks for your very useful information given in this video! Thanks a lot! Now I've got it why my amazfit can do things and why it can't do a different kind of thing, for instance to calculate the "altitude", now after I have watched the video I have got it! Thanks a lot!
It's a video I've been looking for a long time but couldn't find. I finally found it. Thank you very much for your review. You have answered all my questions about the watch.
Thanks for the review...i found this very helpful..my wife gave it to me as present (2 of these for both of us)...indeed your review is very precised
Thanks for the review. Bought this watch ,yet to test it, but got confused initially because there was no user manual. Thanks to your video, could actually figure out how to use the workout modes😅
Well wishes and positive vibes for your upcoming race! ✨️
Thanks for the great review. In the market, looked at a range from Fitbit Charge to Oura ring. Ruled out high end because I am not an athlete! This watch may be a good starter. I haven't used a fitness tracker since the first fitbits which I gave up on after the 3rd one was lost due the horrible "clasp".
this was a great video for my purposes because I'm 77 and couldn't even find most of the items I was used to seeing on the Amazfit Band 5 (which I like but I wanted a larger screen size and a buckled band). My husband and I walk/hike only, and I use an app for distance and a map of sorts, so I won't need this to duplicate in any way. I was intrigued with the camera remote, finally figured that out. (my Samsung Note 9 wand does not work on remote anymore, not sure why, so this feature will be helpful). I love the feature on my Band 5 for Find the Phone. I told my husband for the $30 he paid for it, well worth it because I constantly put my phone down in the house then can't remember where I left it. That was the 1st thing I had to figure out when using this new Pro. It was difficult to find the More button, I had to watch the video a few times in order to see the sequence of getting there!! (remember, I'm 77) So for the extra face size, buckled band and camera remote, I suppose Bip 3 Pro is worth the extra to us (well it was a gift to me, so I'm not looking a gift horse in the mouth)!!! Thank you very much for your efforts, I basically needed to see where things were and how to access them. There is way too much on the actual device for me to use, but I appreciate the low cost for even those things I use. (I do miss my cute screen from the Band 5 with the blinking lights, maybe someday one will come out for the Bit 3 Pro)
Just ordered this. Thanks for the awesome review. Subbed. Have a great upcoming weekend sir.
For a casual user I found this very helpful.
Thanks for this review. My old school digital Timex watch (with Indiglo!) broke in Feb (well the strap broke.) Saw this for just $7 more than a replacement for the Timex and the new school year is starting so I benefit from a watch while teaching. I'm starting a fitness push right now too. So I went for it and I'll update here after I've used it a few weeks.

Having worn this watch since about 4pm today (8 hours) I feel that a few of its main features are oversold. What it does well: tells time, good pedometer, looks good (or at least okay), good stopwatch/timer, basic weather forecast. What doesn't work OR takes longer to set up than I would have guessed: GPS, finding sports beyond walking/running/cycling (update: I found them), answering phone calls, music remote. Basic setup was also quite annoying because it wants to do a firmware update and your phone screen has to stay on. I recommend you change your setting so that it takes at least 5 minutes for your phone's screen to turn off. Battery life is also good. It was mostly charged when I received it, and it overtly warns you when you select features that drain the battery faster. Having worn it for about 6 hours (and explored the watch quite a lot on my first day), it still says 98% charged. Which seems like it can't be right but hopefully it is. It was preset at a dim brightness which I never noticed as not bright enough (so far.) And the default is to turn the screen off until you raise your wrist, but you can change this in the settings so that it's always on or on for a certain range of hours. BUT even all that said, I am very happy with this watch so far. The price was great. (Like I said just $7 plus tax more than the simple old school digital Timex I wanted--which had a price increase of $17 since the last time I bought it 2.5 years ago.) I'm going to keep trying to set up those items that frustrated me the first time around. Hopefully a couple of them will work, but my suspicion is that some of them were overhyped and undercooked on purpose.
Awesome review, watched the whole thing. I collect watches modestly and I decided to get a smart watch again (sold all my other ones years ago) and got this one with a few artsy straps. It should work for me as not a hardcore athlete and if I need to go camping or hiking I would take my Casio ProTrek analog watch. I'll do a video on my watch collection soon on my channel.
Nice review man, one of the best I've seen out there.
Awesome review dude thanks a lot! Keep pumping out great content! Gonna get one for my g/f.
i just brought this watch for my hubby for christmas he uses his phone for steps atm and this watch just fits the bill in my opinion
Very good balanced review. I just bought one of these to track a weekly run. So far it seems exectly what I wanted although I have found some setting difficult to work out. Eg pace alerts setting to miles is not obvious (to me). The quality of the build seems better than expected for the price.
Wife got me the bip 3 pro last Christmas(Dec '22). I work nights, which means I sleep during the day. When it records any sleep at all, it will record it as "naps" since it's during the day, and will regularly record me sitting at my desk working as taking a nap. Can't say it's very accurate. The battery life is exceptional. It loses ~5% per day, which means I can go a solid 2 weeks without thinking about charging. This is a double edged sword, because that's just enough time for me to forget I actually have to charge the thing. Thankfully it charges most if not all the way while I'm getting ready for work. It will occasionally have issues connecting and I have to kill the Zep app, restart the watch and sometimes just flat out restart my phone(Pixel) to get it to connect. If it's been over an hour or two since I last opened the app to resync it won't have any weather data. Which makes having weather on the watch utterly USELESS since I have to pull out my phone any fucking way. It's also hit or miss on turning on by turning my wrist. It works for me about out of 10 times unless I get lucky. All in all, you get what you pay for, and you don't get what you don't pay for. The nothing watch looks promising, but it's a 1st gen. We'll see how their 2nd gen looks.
Got one of the 3 Pro as a gift. Your video was a life saver as it came with a minimalist manual that only told how to charge it. Gave no instructions as to whether to peel off the plastic protective cover on the screen or not. I say yes, my wife says "No its there to keep it from breaking." But i cant read it thru the plastic. Your video at least told me how to turn it on and how long the battery took to charge....which should have been in the instruction manual (print so small I couldnt read it) Thank you for at least telling me what it can do.
A great starter watch. Amazing value for something that is OK. Great review.
I enjoyed your video! Very helpful comparison of the pro, and just the regular bit. Question. Do I need the GPS tracking, simply to clock steps and mileage during the day?

You don't need GPS to track steps/distance throughout the day. Only for tracking runs or rides when you want to see a track of your activity after the fact.
Appreciate your in depth review! 👍
you answered exactly everything I wanted to know about this watch, thank you. as a beginner runner, I'm just looking for something to keep track of my HR during the runs. am I better off getting a used Garmin Forerunner 45? they're about the same price comparing to a brand new Bip 3 Pro
Thanks for the review. I've already got one & I'd say you're pretty much on the button. I do a fair bit of open water swimming & it's a bit variable as to whether it records it or not.
I bought this same watch today. And you are right for what it is at this price point it does not disappoint at all. tomorrow I'm going to test it out and see.
Thank a lot this vid was very helpful... I think I am definitely going to buy this watch
excellent reviews!! Keep up the good work!!!What is the difference between this and the xiaomi maimo wt2105? Thank you!
Thank you for this review. What would you recommend as a step up from this budget watch? I'm mostly looking for better HR and GPS accuracy as I am an avid hiker. And accurate step counter. That's it. Thanks, appreciate it !!!
Excellent review!
Thanks for the very informative video. You verified my choice was OK for me. I was looking for a budget smart/fitness watch that was also a fairly good quality device. It needed to have a good-very good quality supporting smart phone application that wasn't a pain to access or use. Zepp met that need. I am not a hard core runner or biking enthusiast but at 73 years old I am fairly active with 4+ gym days (actually working out not sitting around) and walking 1-2 miles 6-7 days a week. For my needs the Amazfit Bip 3 checks all the boxes for now. I seriously doubt that I will upgrade to a more premium device with a more advanced feature set.
Thanks for the review. I'm waiting for my pro version to come in. I use mine for walking/steps tracking. I am not a pro athlete. LOL This will be an upgrade for me. I have worn and used the Band 5 for almost two years. I have been happy with my Amazfit band. My band 5 still looks like new and I am not easy on jewelry by no means. It has functioned well. Accuracy is not perfect but it is good enough for my needs.
Thanks for this review! I just watched it and, yes, I'm happy I just bought it for my son! It's two weeks he definitely talks every minute about it. Xmas gift for him: DONE! Thanks! ;-)
Great review! I got this for Christmas to replace a Xiaomi Mi Band 5, and while I love the features and the legibility of the Bip 3 display, the lagginess of the lift-to-wake sensitivity is _enraging_. In your opinion, is this lagginess inherent in fitness trackers without a built-in gyroscope? Wondering what to look for in a new tracker should I opt to replace this one as well.
Only your video give detail information of bip 3 Pro, .....nice video.
Best Review of Amazfit Bip 3 Pro. Thank You!
Great review, thanks. I've bought an Amazfit BIP watch about 3 years ago, works well, no issues, get around 3 weeks from battery charge.

Thanks for a wonderful review. I’m an avid mountain biker but don’t go all the time about once every 3 months and just wanted something to track it and keep up with the notifications on my phone. I don’t want or use it to answer phone calls or texts just see who’s calling or texting me which seems perfectly to me. I also didn’t want to subscribe to a service for a watch when I never used it that way with other smart watches. This seems to fit everything I want in a watch.

At the time, I said to myself that I didn't want any (AMO) LED technology on the watch. Today I have a Garmin Instinct Solar (for now) and they have the most visible display of any watch I know. Although the EPIX 2 is tempting, I don't believe it will be without problems in direct sunlight.

At one point I was about 400 lbs, I lost about 200lbs dieting and exercising. This was about eight years ago. I have been on/off the wagon for a while. I am currently about 300lbs. Probably about 5 to 6 years ago I bought a Garmin vivoactive 3. Right now, the battery is virtually dead, a charge will only last about a day. These last 2 -3 years I have been very sedentary. My mobility sucks, About a month ago I started to do stretches, some light cardio, and some light resistance training at home. I didn't have much money either. The biggest metrics I am concerned about is, stress, sleep, and heart rate. For someone who is broke, and getting back into things, this watch is a great option.
Hello! Nice review. I have a question that people doesn't show in the reviews. All te apps notification have the "App" icon? There's no icon for FB, WhatsApp, Instagram, etc... Bip U had these icons.

Hey Dave> I am a pretty serious runner and love to race. I am realizing that the BIP 3 Pro is a really good watch but just isn't cutting it, Im sure you know what I mean, What would your recommendations be for running watch around the $200 range.
I enjoyed your review of the Amazfit Bio 3 Pro. I may have missed your talking about the recording of one's steps. I have found this watch to record about HALF the number of steps that are recorded with my Fitbit watch. I wore both the watches and compared the results after several hours. Fitbit's number was in the 8000's while the Amazfit was in the 4000's. That's terrible, as is the inaccurate heart rate info. Those are big deals for most people, in my opinion.
Great review ! But I can’t seem to find anywhere if it is possible to do HIIT running with this Watch. Seems like a basic and important function to me Like entering time of effort, time of recovery, number of laps, warmup and cooling. Do you bave that is info?
ONE OF THE BEST SMART WATCH REVIEWS OUT THERE!!!! COMPREHENSIVE!!!!🌟
I just bought Bip 3 pro I bought it because I couldn’t afford the Apple Watch plus I had Fitbit which went by the way side . So far I luv it .
Great video. I just ordered one. Just to confirm, it does not have a basic compass? I figured if it had GPS capability it would have a basic compass.
Okay I’m getting back into running 🏃- I was a cc runner before I spent my 20s learning new trades- so my love for the trails and adventure faded away.. always stayed relatively athletic tho with the type of work I was doing over the years.. Just pick up one of these watches this year and I like the app feature.. There is so much health /track / monitoring that I need to learn about--- Im into extreme sports anything pretty much
Great Video. After this review i directly bought in on Amazon in Germany. Todys discounted price was 39 EUR / close to 39$ US. One question. If you do an indoor training. Is it possible to constentantly monitor the heartrate with DISPLAY on. And how big are the numbers. I am looking for a watch that shows heartrate on at least 50% of the display. Typically there is a Multifunction Display with lots of data on a font hight close to ZERO :-) Greetings from Germany.
While I'm late to the comment section and only ended up watching because I found an Amazfit Bip A1608 in my junk drawer, I think the 3 Pro is a must buy if you're not collecting any data now and you don't have the funds for something else. But I'm a data dude, with my 3x5 card in the gym and a spreadsheet for that at home. My choice if you're on a budget is the original Garmin Instinct which can be had for cheap. The one I have is the eSports model that gets a lot of hate, but it actually has more features than the others. And btw, the Bip I found in my junk drawer is so old it has an epaper display. It's the Chinese version of the Pebble 2. Thanks for the video.
Good Review. thanks
The best review on you tube Thanks, If you have any chance please review Xiaomi S2 42m/m
I just happened to buy one of these the day before your review haha. One question, I’m finding that the recorded steps seems pretty high compared to what I’m actually walking. Did you find that in your testing at all?

Yeah a bit on the high side. Though, I don’t bother testing accuracy of steps on most watches because they’re all over the place lol. More important to me is are the steps consistent on the same device? Constancy is more important than accuracy.
Dear Sir, Thanks for this information. I need to know How can I set my Amazfit Bip 3 Pro in order that we can walk or run for a elapsed time. For instance, If I need to Run or to Walk for just 12 minutes How can I set that in my Amazfit Bip 3 Pro? This is the question. Thanks very much for your help.
Hi! I was wondering how you were able to show your vo2 max, i bought bip3 pro and they said that it has no algorithm for vo2 max
Sor for purely for accurate activity tracking such as step counting, how much distance has been made and basic stuff. Should I get Amazfit ban 7 or bip 3 pro (both have same price in my country)
I bought a non pro Bip 3 for my mother, then I ended up bought one for myself too, my 1st ever smatchwatch 😅 I use only Mi Band 6/7 for exercises, cycling and swimming because it's smaller
Great vid 👍
