Amazfit Bip 3 Pro review 2024: dustproof and water-resistant

At first glance, the Amazfit Bip 3 Pro looks a lot like the Apple Watch, which is one of the best fitness trackers. It has a square face that is curved, a digital crown that is similar to the one on the Apple Watch, and an overall design that is very familiar. The best thing about this cheap fitness tracker is that it will cost about a tenth of what a recent high-end Apple Watch will.

With that in mind, it might be too much to expect it to work like Apple’s wearable. Even though it doesn’t, that doesn’t mean the Amazfit Bip 3 Pro doesn’t have some tricks and features that make it worth a look at this price.

Amazfit Bip 3 Pro review: Design and display 

As we said earlier, it’s easy to see where the Amazfit Bip 3 Pro got its ideas from: it looks a lot like the Apple Watch Series 4 and later, with a 44mm case and a 1.69-inch square display. The screen isn’t AMOLED, and even though most of the user interface is black, it’s not dark enough to make us think it’s a good fake. It’s not bad, but if you’re coming from a Huawei Band 7, you might be a little disappointed by how muted the colors are here.

The Amazfit Bip 3 Pro comes in three different colors: black, pink, and cream. No matter which option you choose, there is a small “crown” that you can click on one side of the device. It’s pretty in the middle, so if it’s pointing up your arm, it’s easy to press it by accident when doing things like press-ups. You can buy this smartwatch from its official website.

Amazfit Bip 3 Pro review: Features

With these smartwatch features, you can look at notifications, but you can only delete them. The notifications are easy to spot and work well on the small touchscreen. Sometimes, those old notifications can pile up, so you may need to go in and delete the ones you’ve already dealt with.

There are a lot of different watch faces to choose from, but you can only keep two on the watch. You can add widgets to some of these faces to make it easier to see information at a glance. You can also make a watch face from one of your own photos if you like that idea.

Amazfit Bip 3 Pro review: Heart rate tracking

The Bip 3 Pro can keep track of your heart rate, and the app has a section for it. You can look at a graph of your heart rate throughout the day, including your highest, lowest, and average bpm, as well as your resting heart rate.

Even though many nights of sleep were tracked while testing the Bip 3 Pro, it never managed to record a resting heart rate. Wearables usually take a reading at this time, but our data was missing. Because resting heart rate is one of the most useful metrics from tracking heart rate if it’s shown well. Even if the Zepp Health app does manage to track your data, it still hides this metric.

Amazfit Bip 3 Pro review: Connectivity

The multi-language product manual for the Amazfit is a joke. There are only three pages in English, and there isn’t a single word about charging the watch, which is the first and most important thing to do after taking it out of the box, or about how to deal with problems like connectivity.

Amazfit Bip 3 Pro review: Performance

We also wore the Bip 3 Pro while swimming in the pool, doing HIIT in the gym, and rowing on an indoor machine. Its performance and metrics were good overall when compared to tracking from a Garmin watch and the very accurate Form smart swimming goggles, so core tracking seems good in general, but heart rate tracking is definitely not as good as it could be.

Amazfit Bip 3 Pro review: Battery Life

If you go back to the first Bip, Amazfit said that the battery would last between 30 and 45 days. The Bip 3 Pro isn’t quite the same, but it has the potential to last for weeks instead of days.

Like most Amazfit watches, getting those maximum battery numbers means turning off features like advanced sleep tracking, all-day stress tracking, and sampling continuous heart rate data less often.

Amazfit Bip 3 Pro review: Price and release date

The Bip 3 Pro costs $69.99, and the version that doesn’t have Pro costs $59.99. That’s some good stuff. Few watches can beat it when it comes to price or features, like the fact that it has GPS. The Poco Watch and Redmi Watch 2 are also hard to get in the US. The Huawei Watch Fit 2 did very well in our tests, but it costs $129, which is a lot more. The Huawei Band 7

Final Words

For the price, the Amazfit Bip 3 Pro is a great all-arounder. It is a very good fitness tracker, and it also tracks sleep very well. Even though wewish the standard watch strap was more comfortable, it’s hard to complain too much at this price. You can track a lot of features with just a touch, including the blood oxygen monitor, which is usually only found on more expensive wearables.
