Has the GPS function of the Bip 5 really gotten ~30% more accurate compared to the Bip U Pro? Bip U Pro only supports GPS standard, Bip 5 GPS+Galileo. Unfortunately my Bip U Pro reports too short distances when I go jogging, hence I am looking out for a new model. How well can the Bip 5 track indoor swimming (# of lanes) given it has no gyrometer?
@TechMishka

Without gyro the accuracy is not superb. GPS is okay, but not as good as what it is with Amazfit Cheetah, for instance

Hey, i need to buy a watch before tomorrow so please respond fast :C Should i buy the bip 5 or the gts 4 mini (They are the same price), what are the differences between each one and which one do you prefer? I need to get this watch for my mom because its her birthday party today, and she said she needs a big screen, it has to be accesible, so take that in mind too. Her current watch is the huawei watch fit, and she wants something like that or better. She needs a good balance in every aspect of the watch, but mainly activities and work stuff. the more features the better Im sorry if this sounds overwhelming or annoying, but i really need to know this, so thanks for answering :)

I watched both your reviews on Active 2 Samsung and this bip 5 I never opened my active 2 I got two years ago. so, I don't know if I should finally open it and return my bip 5 i got yesterday as a gift. or keep lol. I'm a runner I didn't realize I should have been using it because I don't really wear watches. so, it seems this one has better GPS tracking and speakers for calling i mainly just want the running specs like heartrate and miles per second ect. there's no subscription for the app I'm not sure if active 2 did or not anyways what you think lol. also my phone is Samsung.

Wait you said 300mah battery and it can last for 5 to 25 days? So, does this mean that Samsung galaxy 6 watches can fix the battery life problem with an update you think? I mean the GW8 I have tried out has a 425mah battery and it last for about 1day and maybe 10 hours.
@TechMishka

Not really. Battery consumption is down to many factors. The OS here is primitive, so is the hardware. This is why a quartz-watch can last 2 years with a button battery. WearOS watches are like smartphones - they use a lot of battery

I bought the 5, and it is a beautiful and capable watch but the speakerphone -when making phonecalls- is ridiculously low in volume, although for other functions like the assistant it is loud enough. I hope a firmware update will solve this. In your video the reception is surely amplified by your camera's microphone. I have to put the watch close to my ear to understand anything, even inside my house.

I ordered 6 units of Fitbit Versa 2 but the delivery got screwed up so i cancelled the order & bought 6 units of Amazfit Bip 5 instead. They are for my family occasion and boy they just loved the watch. Under normal use with daily evening runs or gym exercise, the battery lasted about 15-20 days for most of us. That's great considering we have to charge our phones daily or sometimes twice a day with heavy usage..

I've had three devices from them in the past, but they all had bugs that they never fixed even though I reported them about a dozen times over several years. The most irritating one was that several times I had the watch just reset and lose all tracking in the middle of a multi-hour kayak workout; I saw I was up to several miles, 15 minutes later I looked at it again and it was back to just the watch face and it must have rebooted because it had no workout in memory at all. This happened 3 times to me over 2 different devices.

This is not nice. I've only had it once (not with this Amazfit) and it never happened after a firmware update.
The company should not have touched the 45 days always on battery life. That was their trademark. Now I think that they not only killed their flag ship watch but also saturated the market with some unwanted watches that confuses the consumer. They should return to the Bip 45 days always on and innovate on that particular model. I for one am staying away from this model till they get their act together.
