I really like this band, it works well for me and stays linked to Alexa more than my previous one. But, my skin does NOT like the band that comes with it. (silicone I think?) My wrist breaks out. So, I almost didn’t buy this band, as so many reviews said you couldn’t get a replacement band, and to be honest, you can’t. But one other reviewer said he had purchased a replacement band for a similar fitness project, and made it fit. Well, I did too! I purchased the fitness band that fits the Xiaomi Mi Band 5 fitness tracker. I bought this very one —>> The Amazon ASIN # is B08JCXVDQG. Here is the link —>> https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B08JCXVDQG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s02?ie=UTF8&th=1All you have to do is file down ONE side of the BOTTOM off the fitness tracker. I used one of my husband’s files from the garage, and only had to file it 6 GENTLE times, then it snapped right in. Good luck!!!

I have completely fallen in love! My photo shows no justice. The band is light weight and very comfortable. The band snaps and there’s plenty of holes so anyone can wear. Before I bought this I read a lot of mixed reviews on Amazon. I don’t understand why anyone wouldn’t love this! Its not a fit bit or an apple watch, which maybe those people expected. This is powered with Alexa, which I don’t use or need. But she will do anything for you. In the sun its a little hard to see, but so is a cellphone. It lets you change the main display for free. All if which show your steps for the day and the time. Once it arrives you have to download the app, and pair your band. One big free hint, its a BAND not a watch! I couldn’t figure the Bluetooth for hours and I was so upset! Well it shows up as a band, lol. The app is as accurate as they come. I measured my pulse and pulse ox on the band and on another device, and they both were the same. Its always checking your vitals, even when you sleep. The sleep recordings are just amazing! Shows your REM, pulse, awake, deep sleep, and light sleep, including your breathing. It tells you how difficult your breathing is all night including the times. I have sleep acnea, and don’t use a machine so I know I snore. It tells me when, how long and what type of breathing I’m doing. It measures it as low, medium, mild, and high risk. I mean I could keep going on for this for hours but the description is right on and its waterproof. This is 1000% worth it. Also you can buy a $2.99 accident warranty.

I was looking for a step tracker/phone notifications/timer watch. Anything else would have been a bonus. I tried a Fitbit Versa 3 after having a Versa for years. It caused arm pain and the app/watch was glitchy (losing Bluetooth connection), and cost ALOT. I was doing challenges with friends, so that is why I tried to stay.I am SO GLAD I looked outside of Fitbit! My Amazfit does all I need, which for me is mainly letting me know about calls and texts and a good timer. And it was only $40!The battery holds tons of charge. The FREE watch faces work for me. It tracks steps, HR and exercise, but being able to have my ringer off and know when I get calls is perfect for me- and no glitches!In addition to the calls and texts, it also does my iPhone notifications and emails- I never knew that could happen!And no arm pain.I have the smaller watch, so it is not a gigantic thing in my wrist. If I looked at the Fitbit version – $50- 70 more. It is just right.Don’t waste your money on the brand names. Amazfit is what you need.

If you are looking for a budget tracker with all the bells and whistles of a high end device, then look no further. Starting with complaints, I have three:1. Misses a bunch of steps when pushing something – in my case a lawn mower2. The feature to keep it from illuminating during certain hours doesn’t work for me3. If you are doing a timer or stopwatch you cannot access other featuresThat said, here is what is amazing about the device. Keep in mind I’ve previously had two Fitbits of different generations and a MorePro.1. Over 40 watch faces to choose from2. Swipe all directions on the watch face to get to the boatload of features, like stopwatch, alarm, timer, workout modes, watch face swap, weather, full stats (except sleep), Amazon Alexa, and more.3. The app is detailed and easy to use4. No issues with bluetooth connectivity to my Pixel 55. Alarm clock vibrates several times and has a snooze feature (can also be disabled from your watch)6. Can use it as a bluetooth trigger to take pictures on your phone when the camera app is already open7. Flexible notifications from the phone (I elected to get call alerts but not text messages)8. Battery life is great – I have continuous heart rate monitor enabled and get 6-7 days between charges9. AND MORE!!I would definitely buy one of these again.

Okay, so I’ve been wearing my Band 5 for 24 hours and I have to say, I LOVE it! I got this because I just started running and I wanted something to track my distance/steps/activity/heart rate/etc, but I wasn’t sure how badly I wanted it or how much I would use it, so after reading some articles on the internet, I decided this was a pretty good place to start. I had it connected to my phone with the Zepp app in minutes and I found the whole set-up process to be pretty painless! I have since changed a couple of things through the band itself and the app and it’s extremely user-friendly! The only downside is the band was too big for my kid-sized wrist, so I drilled a couple of extra holes in the band and cut off the excess and rounded it off so it didn’t dig into my wrist and it’s pretty perfect now! As for accuracy, it doesn’t get every step, but it counts a few I didn’t take so I figure it’s not THAT far off. It said I woke up twice last night during my sleep and that’s correct! So far I really like it! I set it to freestyle workout last night and followed along with a workout on my phone… it felt really accurate there with the heart rate and intensity! Like I said, for the price, this feels like a real steal! The only thing I wish was that there were more band options and I could get something smaller without modifying it! 🙂 GO FOR IT! I don’t think you’ll regret it!

I still haven’t figured everything out because it does so many things. I use the blood oxygen reader daily for my respiratory distress condition so now I only use my inhaler when my oxygen is low, which is great. I’m getting used to the PAI activity tracking system & it seems to be keeping an accurate record of my levels of exertion, if not an accurate account of my Steps. Talking to Alexa on my wrist is wonderful! Not only can I add to my Lists when I’m not around an Alexa device but it also shows the updated info on the face of the band! I didn’t expect that!! The variety of face designs allow for some fun customization too; currently I have the day & date showing on the “home face” but the one before that had more…Maybe too much! I’m still having trouble remembering that a week’s worth of weather is displayed at all times; super handy. I’m using the Notifications & Heart Rate monitor regularly but haven’t really branched out much more than that. As I figure more out, I’m sure I’ll love it more – for example, there is a face lock!!! Did I mention that it rarely needs charging & has a simple magnetic charging cord? Extremely easy to use both the band & the app. Bonus: the app doesn’t burn thru my phone battery!I STRONGLY RECOMMEND THIS BAND!FYI: I always buy the extra insurance, when available, but this band does come with a 1 year warranty so they believe in their product. I called them for some help setting it up & they were patient, knowledgeable, & thorough. Visit their website… they have some impressive high end trackers if you love to flash tech around.

So I used to have an Apple Watch but I decided to try something different because I wasn’t using the watch that much. Found this watch thru scrolling amazon like the price and the reviews so I gave it and shot and wow am I impressed I received this Jan 2nd and I charged it last night Jan 11, it still had 30% battery life! I used this pretty much all day every day give or take 6hrz I’m at work but still in my pocket and turned on. I love the customization you have for the watch face and I like the app Zepp you use to connect and set things up for your watch. I can literally see calls, notifications, weather, set alarms, all kinds of stuff. I will admit the work out section is pretty limited but I just turn on freestyle and I’m good! I love when it measures ur heart rate and tells u where ur at like light, anaerobic, intensive, etc. I am beyond happy with this watch and I only paid 30 bucks!! Love apple products but man is this amazing super happy!

UPDATED 12-31-2020 [This a a real review]Set up is easy as you download the Zepp app and pair the watch to your bluetooth, then register to sign in. The little band is a bit hard to fasten on your wrist at first as you get used to it, and I have had it come off in bed and once just in everyday use possibly because it wasn’t fully secured but more likely due to catching the closure button on something. The read outs are easy to use although the instructions and explanations of functions are somewhat vague. The measurements to input some manual things like blood pressure, body temperature, etc., are only in UK measurements so you have to convert the numbers. Hopefully they will change this for imperial measurements, too. In your profile the standard measurements can be set to imperial or UK so there is no confusion seeing your readouts on your band or in the app.The band itself provides the ability to change around the menus so those you’re most interested in can be scrolled to up or down, left or right, quicker. You can rotate your wrist toward you to activate one of the chosen 45+ provided watch faces (the automatic watch face reveal can be scheduled to turn off when you’re sleeping) or you can just tap the lower part of the face and the length of time for viewing can be changed, too. Then you can scroll the menu so that side to side brings up Alexa/ Notifications in one directions and Weather/Heart rate in the other as they repeat in a circle. Pulling the screen down reveals More/Workout/Weather/Events/Breathing/Stress/Notifications/SpO2/Heart Rate/PAI/Status before returning back the the watch face.MORE gives you options: DND/Alarm/Camera/Music/Stopwatch/Timer/Find Device/Silent/World Clock/Band Display/Settings. When you use the app to download one of the 45+ watch faces (band display) at least five remain as a choice in the Band Display section for quick change. Settings allows further adjustments to the watch face use and ability to reboot.WORKOUT: Outdoor Running/Treadmill/Cycling/Indoor Cycling/Walking/Elliptical/Rowing Machine/Yoga/Jump Rope/Pool Swimming/FreestyleWEATHER gives you current local conditions and forecast for the next six days. Temperature/Humidity/Level/QualityEVENTS are reminders of upcoming things you input by speaking into the watch.BREATHING is an exercise to calm and relax you.STRESS measures your level between 0 and 100 based on heart and pulse ox and other factors.SPO2, also known as oxygen saturation, is a measure of the amount of oxygen-carrying hemoglobin in the blood relative to the amount of hemoglobin not carrying oxygen. The body needs a certain level of oxygen in the blood or it will not function as efficiently. In fact, very low levels of SpO2 can result in very serious symptoms. You can quickly test here to obtain your SpO2.HEART RATE measures the beats per minute, BPM, and can be set to check this periodically or manually here.PAI is the physical activity intelligence that takes data to provide a number up to 100 showing your activity level, and this number climbs as days pass and it automatically computes the number. You can quickly do a manual test here, too, following the on screen directions.STATUS shows your steps, calories used, distance walked, idle alerts (if so set), and previous days step counts.ALEXA is a nice addition and works well with responses in text format. It is not necessary to say the name, Alexa, just scroll to menu and input your command or question. I often use my Band 5 to turn on/off or command smart lights, plugs, and smart light strips. I can walk in a room and command a light, or change the temperature on the Ecobee Thermostat, if so desired. Very quick responses to questions and computations make this a very nice feature.NOTIFICATION work very well and promptly show on the watch face to be easily read, and can be scrolled if a long message is received.BATTERY LIFE so far seems to be on average around two week at least before a 2 hour charge is necessary using the round magnetically attached plug and short cord. I charged mine after 12 days at 17% remaining charge so it would have gone a full two weeks before going dead.CONCLUSION. There is a lot to explore and I have continued too use a Fitbit Versa for steps and distance as well as another app, MapMyRun, to plot the GPS path and distance. I have not gotten the Amazfit Band 5 to accurately give my distance and show a GPS plotted route like the MapMyRun app provides. However, the step count is more accurate. It may well be that the Versa and MapMyRun app are interfering with the GPS so that Band 5 cannot calculate this properly. I will experiment in time and work with developers to see if a solution can be found, but it’s not a big problem for me. MapMyRun’s browser data and history with routes is quite satisfactory and I have found history is available when you use the icon in the top right of the Zepp app and see under Exercise Data the Exercise Record where period of time can be selected and individual dates show full data (again, the routes shown and distance/steps are wrong, so far, and still experimenting with this error). The Versa serves as a watch and notifications I can easily read. Band 5 does not provide the ability to switch functions while using the Workout function, but it does show notifications. So you cannot use the Band 5 for anything else during work outs, if I am not mistaken. Note that outside in the sunlight it is very hard to read the screen, however, unless you turn the brightness up under setting to maximum from the default applied to conserve battery.Overall I am very pleased with all the data, including the SLEEP DATA it provides for helping the wearer to better health. A beta Breathing tracking function can be set to check for problems while you sleep and it scored me 99 out of 100. As you turn on things like this it does warn of extra battery use. It could be, and probably will be tweaked so the wearer can more customize it to the wearer’s own needs and life. For the price, it is great, and now there is an inexpensive compatible replacement band assortment in 15 colors for easy change to coordinate with your daily wardrobe. As I wear and use the Band 5 I may add more to this review.UPDATE AFTER DST: Strangely the sleep record is not recording on the date it should and runs a day behind. Reporting errors or suggested improvements seems to go unnoticed as the step count is still showing the miles lower than actual, e.g., 3 miles is shown as approximately 2.5 even though the steps are correct, so the stride distance is wrong and possibly due to the GPS not working correctly with my Moto G6 Plus watch. No fix so I depend on my cell’s app, MayMyRun, to accurately record this for me.

I have to write this review because I was misled by a lot of negative reviews and waited for long time. I almost decided to buy the Fitbit verse 3, but wanted to give this band a try first.I have owned two Samsung smartwatches, one Fitbit, and a new Apple watch 6 for wife, but I am looking for a simple, light, long battery life particularly with Alexa control function smart device. I finally made decision to try it. It took less than 5 minutes to setup EVERYTHING. The screen is beautiful, super crisp text. The Alexa function works perfectly even without the ability of speaker. I can read text message, and get phone call notification. It has a lot of basic health fitness tracker features that are very useful. I would give it 5+ stars.Now, why I disagree with some of the negative reviews which is misleading.** Simply the most important: set the right/realistic expectation for a $35 smart device that can do Alexa control1. Not accurate: come on… is the xx steps difference really that important for you which will destroy your whole health tracking plan? If yes, go spend $400 to get an Apple watch. what’s important is the trending: did you exercise consistently, do you have a surge or drop in the heart rate suddenly.2. Buggy software: I set it up and forget about it. I am not really sure what buggy is about. Are you doing a stress testing for a $35 device?3. if you are pulling out each feature and compare with a dedicated device or apple watch or Samsung watch, why don’t you buy all those devices to make sure you are happy with everything?Last comment/warning: the screen is small, the text may be too small for some users. For me, it is really trivial comparing with what I am expecting from this smart Alexa band.Thanks.

So I genuinely enjoy this watch, especially because of the value (price vs. functionality). It reads heart rate well, calculates stress and my ‘sleep score’s (a fun feature that my gf and I compare each morning). I don’t believe the calories burned are accurate but that’s not based on anything empirical, just my perception.I will tell you that I originally had huge issues with finding Alexa and that is why I’m posting this review as I expect many of you have shared this experience. I returned my original order because I couldn’t find the Alexa feature and why it wasn’t a deal breaker, I sincerely am never okay being misled and it stated on the product page and box that this watch had the Alexa feature. I complained and then got a replacement that did the same thing – no alexa. Here’s the trick: Go-to your Zepp app, next go-to Profile and finally got Add Account. Then add alexa account. To test it after it updates your interface, swipe right on your watch face until you see Alexa. It has no wake word, you have to swipe. It functions at a basic level but is connected to your other devices. Hope this helps anyone having the same issue.In conclusion: absolutely great watch for it’s $35 price. It doesn’t impact my phone battery despite being connected the whole day and it last for about a week without needing a charge. I can’t make the 10-15 days advertised with all the features I have activated but it charges within an hour. Oh and the watch face options are awesome – you can go minimalist or get all the data. Currently I have my own custom background which is super cool. Anyway, I do recommend this. Let me know if you have any questions and I’ll provide honest feedback.
