Smartwatches can be expensive and overwhelming with too many features for the average user. The Amazfit Active 2 is a welcome relief, packing a lot of functionality into an affordable package.
It looks better than its price. The 44mm stainless steel case feels solid and the 1.32-inch AMOLED display is bright and vibrant with 2,000 nits of peak brightness. Whether you’re running in the sun or glancing at notifications in a dark room, the screen is sharp and readable. The standard model comes with a black or orange silicone strap while the premium version has a leather strap and sapphire glass for a tougher and more elegant look. Switching between sporty and polished styles is easy, especially with the premium model’s dual straps.

Fitness tracking is the Active 2’s strong suit. With over 160 workout modes it covers popular activities like running and cycling to niche sports like padel and Hyrox racing. Runners get a virtual pacer, track run mode and smart trajectory correction while gym-goers get automatic rep counting for 25 strength exercises. The BioTracker technology gives accurate heart rate, blood oxygen and sleep data and matches more expensive competitors.
Battery life is a big win. Amazfit claims up to 10 days on a single charge even with heavy GPS use and constant notifications. Unlike premium smartwatches that need daily charging, this is a lifesaver for those who hate scrambling for a charger mid-workout, perfect for busy schedules or weekend adventures.
Smart features are practical. The Zepp Flow AI assistant supports voice commands for tasks like checking the weather or replying to Android messages via speech-to-text. Not as polished as Siri but it gets the job done. Offline maps with turn-by-turn navigation are great for hikers and skiers, ski resort maps provide detailed slope and cable car guidance.
Health monitoring goes beyond the basics, tracking heart rate variability, sleep stages and stress levels and provides VO2 Max and recovery time for fitness enthusiasts. A menstrual cycle tracker paired with a Wild.AI mini-app gives predictions and exercise suggestions, a nice touch for female users.
It delivers on what matters most: fitness tracking, screen and battery. It’s not trying to compete with feature-rich high-end models but is a solid companion for daily life whether you’re hitting the gym, trails or notifications. For first time smartwatch buyers or those on a budget it’s a winner.
