I bought it couple days ago I really hope it won't let me down when it comes to Running and Accurate heart Rate. Thanks for honest and great review ! :)
Great review. I have the same device, and love it. I upgraded from the original BIP, and the U pro is better in most respects. HOWEVER, there are two big points where the U pro is way inferior: the reflective display of the BIP was replaced by a LCD screen, which is not "always on" and isn't very well visible in bright daylight, and, in contrast to the original BIP, there is no way to display the GPS coordinates. Now THAT'S a real bummer, man. I hope it will come with a firmware update, though. How hard can it be?
For sleep settings how do you set the fall asleep vs awake times? I found it once set it for 12 a.m. to 8 a.m. but it wouldn't read properly if I went sleep earlier or later then that time. No I can't find that setting at all to change.
You shouldn't have to put anything in for your sleep settings. It should just track your sleep without you having to do anything. Let me know how it's going
Brother, can you please review accuracy of calories tracker? Does this watch take heart rate into account while tracking calories ? Please let me know this
Pretty much every fitness tracker uses its heart rate monitor to track burned calories with gender, height, and weight taken into account as well. As far as the most accurate companies with their own algorithms it tends to be Fitbit and Garmin leading the pack. Try to remember tho that the accuracy of calories burned is tough to make 100% accurate. If you are lifting weights the bands cannot take into account if it is a 5 lbs weight in your hand or a 30 lbs weight in your hand. I wouldn't say that this was an inaccurate calorie counter, but it isn't the most accurate. I know that really isn't the answer you're looking for, but I hope it helps.
@@FitnessWithFrost That's what my worry was. If I am lifting variable weights, now my HR will vary depending upon my exhaustion. If this watch tracks HR, then I believe it will show somewhat accurate data. So based on your experiments, I take it that the data it shows will be near accurate. So can you generally give an approximation of variation from premium brands if that's feasible.
@@FitnessWithFrost for reference I did a HIIT today of 30 min. As per the workout app, it was approx 450 cal, whereas this watch showed 345 cal. That was demotivating 😅. This was the precursor to these questions.
I can understand that you might feel a bit discouraged by that. Also you should know that sometimes when your body isn't fully recovered is a lot harder to get your body to function the same way it would if it was fully recovered. That would reflect on the effort given and if your heart rate isn't going as high on a certain day it might be because your body needs more rest
A couple other good options good options are the Mi Band 6 and the Fitbit Charge 4. I definitely want you let you know, even if you do one this, that calories tracked on these devices will never be truly accurate. It can only really track heart rate and steps, it can never know if you have a 5 pound weight or a 50 pound weight so try not to get to caught up in the numbers
@@FitnessWithFrost Wasn't saying you were wrong by any means, on some reviews i heard similar things, i feel it is luck of the draw maybe, or it depends on where you live :)
It should be able to, but for some reason when I tried to use its GPS without a phone I couldn't do it. I don't think I can recommend it for your cycling
Hey my friend.. how does the watch know your laying down and actually sleeping?. And when does it start? I put in I want to get 9hrs of sleep. Also I took the breathing thing off cause it supposed to drain your battery down pretty quick it says
Its a combination of the accelerometer and your heart rate that it uses to identify when you are sleeping. I'm not 100% sure that's all it does, but that's what these watches typically do. I hope that was helpful.
Great review, by any chance, do you know how to reset the country when we first set up the watch with the app I put United something instead of USA so I can't have Alexa working? Thank you.
Actually, I found out, we need to unpair the watch do a Factory Reset, and then Restart a new Registration in the right Country With a " New Email address".
I’ve always opted for Fitbit because of their deep sleep tracking. But Amazfit has caught up. Might be time to ditch Fitbit. I love my Amazfit Bip, and I wish the U Pro had the same battery life, but it makes sense why it doesn’t given all the extra features. I may have to pick this up.
Thanks for a review! Can you help me? I am a new owner of Amazfit Bip U. I did some jump skipping with jump skipping workout mode on. After I finished, I could see that the watch counted steps while I was in a jump skipping workout mode. Is there a solution for that? I don't know how to fix that because there is no option for step counter disabling :/ Thank you!!
@@FitnessWithFrost well, I want to do do walking daily, and of course, it will count my steps and calories burned from that. But when I turn on the jump rope mode, it counts calories burned from both jump rope and walking (since it counts steps (jumps) in the background). So it turns out that I do 2 workouts at the same time, and I end up 1000 steps extra steps that I didn't make. I hope you understand. For example, I burn 100 calories doing jump rope, but also some calories from those steps counted in the background. So at the end of the day, if my watch says I did 10000 steps, I have to consider I did 9000 steps.
Steps and jumping are kind of one in the same. It's awesome that you're getting a walk in and jump roping, but remember that steps taken isn't a pure measure of health. You can try and negate the steps taken in your jump rope workout and get those steps elsewhere, but try not to get hung up to much on the steps. Hopefully that helps. Good luck on your fitness journey
@@FitnessWithFrost Thank you for your response, if it does have this feature in some form it would show up in one of the sports modes like hiking, climbing or mountaineering. Seems like any watch that has GPS would have this but guess they don't.
I haven't personally gotten my hand in the GTS 2 mini, but I from what I have researched is that the GTS line does has better sensors, so I would probably go to the GTS line
This. HUAWEI watches are terrible at 3rd party or Gpx export. They promised strava for two years and failed to deliver. Amazfit watches work well with strava and you can access your run data better.
Pretty accurate, but if your looking for the best accuracy I wouldn't recommend this. It's sample rate is a little slow so if you're doing a bunch of turns it will bounce around a bit
Is this Amazfit Fib U Pro watch better than any Fitbit watches in your opinion? Because I been using Fitbit for the last 4 years. Is it a good time to switch to Amazfit Fib U Pro from Fitbit charge 4 in your personal opinion because you personally use the Amazfit Fib U Pro? So what's your take on it at this point? Thank you and hope to hear from you soon. Have a great day ahead. 👍👍
I would take a Fitbit over the Amazfit for accuracy, but it's hard to deny the deal you get with the Amazfit. The App for Fitbit is a ton better as well. Hopefully that's helpful
The heart rate monitor in the band 5 is more accurate and dependable. It doesn't have a GPS or a big screen but it's a more reliable heart rate sensor. Thank you for the kind words!
@@FitnessWithFrost Preferably below $100... honestly, I'm not watch person. 😁 I'll only wear it duing my HIIT session. It'll be my first smart watch. 😁
Sorry it took a bit for a response. From the research I did it looks like the biggest difference is screen and battery life. The Bip S has a crazy battery life, but not a great screen. You will get a better screen and less battery life on the Bip U Pro. I haven't tested the Bip S personally, but I think I might get my hands on that soon. Hopefully that helped
Sadly I'm not to familiar with the verge lite. I did see it was more expensive, but I haven't tested myself to really give a good recommendation either way
I'm officially addicted to Monocashback - just got it for only $35 after a 50% discount and an extra $2 in cashback. This app seriously makes shopping feel like a game and I'm winning!
I bought it couple days ago I really hope it won't let me down when it comes to Running and Accurate heart Rate.

Yeah I hope the continue to improve it. It can be better and shouldn't be that hard
I've got amazfit bip u pro. Big up from Scotland 👍👍👍
Hopefully you enjoyed the video!
Yes mate thanks for sharing
Nice review.. any recommendations on small wrists smartwatch?
The Amazfit Band 7 is solid and also the Fitbit Charge 5 if you are looking for something with more features
For sleep settings how do you set the fall asleep vs awake times? I found it once set it for 12 a.m. to 8 a.m. but it wouldn't read properly if I went sleep earlier or later then that time.

I'm a runner,I'm looking for a budget friendly amazfit watch which shows pace accurately. Will you recommend bip u pro ?
Keep growing 👍
Thank you so much

Could you do a review on the Leotec MultiSport GPS Advantage
I think I can get around to that. Thank you
Hey great review! Do u recommend this watch for cardio work, HIIT, kickboxing and cardio like that? Im searching a good watch to count calories
It isn't that bad. Not the best but for this price range it is very good
@@FitnessWithFrost great, what watch do u recommend to count calories for cardio?
What's your budget like? What's important to you? Battery life? Screen size?
@@FitnessWithFrost $80. It's important the count calories, I work out everyday and i want to know how many calories I lose
A couple other good options good options are the Mi Band 6 and the Fitbit Charge 4.

It can only really track heart rate and steps, it can never know if you have a 5 pound weight or a 50 pound weight so try not to get to caught up in the numbers
Great video. Do you have to have your phone with you on your run for the watches gps to work?
Thank you! It does say it has a GPS built in, but it was a little unreliable in my testing
Bit late, but I leave my phone at home and run 5k, and it tracks perfectly fine :)
Glad to hear that. I might have missed out on an update because mine was not functioning that well
@@FitnessWithFrost Wasn't saying you were wrong by any means, on some reviews i heard similar things, i feel it is luck of the draw maybe, or it depends on where you live :)
No I didn't take any offense. I'm just glad it worked for someone
Can it track cycling even when it is not connected to phone
It should be able to, but for some reason when I tried to use its GPS without a phone I couldn't do it. I don't think I can recommend it for your cycling
@@FitnessWithFrost okay
Thanks
No problem

I think you're going to need to contact Samsung support for that one. They are very responsive and helpful with the problems I've had
Actually, I found out, we need to unpair the watch do a Factory Reset, and then Restart a new Registration in the right Country With a " New Email address".
I'm glad you found a fix for it. Hopefully you can enjoy your watch now
If we go out for cycling will it track how much miles have I have travelled?
It will track your mileage and it will be a pretty good tracker for that

I am waiting for fitbit to step up a little bit mostly because they have been bought by Google
Can we install 3rd party watch face?
Sorry for the late response, but from what I see. It doesn't look like there is a 3rd party involved here
does this watch (when you use alexa) use the speaker? CAN it use the speaker?
No it will just give you text on the screen for the reply
How accuracy is running tracking on it can it compete with fit bit running data
Its decent for the price, but the Charge 4 and the Inspire 2 will be a bit more accurate
@@FitnessWithFrost thank you for your response
No problem. Good luck on your fitness journey
Which is the best band having accurate gps,amoled display and descent battery ,and more camparativy accurate sensors
What's your price range?
amazfit gts 2 mini

Which one should I buy mi band 6, amazfit verge lite, realme watch s or the amazfit bip u pro
I just saw this comment so I'm sorry for the late response. I really counts on what you're looking for. Do you need a big screen?
@@FitnessWithFrost I have purchased bip u pro thanks for all ur time and help
No problem. Good luck with your fine journey
@@arshmathur888 does it have thing s like general cardio/HIIT/indoor workout/cardio workout/strenght training....i need your response for this
Does the watch have an altimeter to show elevation your at in any of its modes or readings?
Sadly it does not so you will not see elevation tracked sadly
@@FitnessWithFrost
Thank you for your response, if it does have this feature in some form it would show up in one of the sports modes like hiking, climbing or mountaineering. Seems like any watch that has GPS would have this but guess they don't.
Yeah it's definitely hit or miss. The GPS ones that don't have the Altimeter are definitely more catered to runners on a track
How does the indoor cycling mode work ?
I didn't get to test that particular mode myself, but my assumption is just going by heart rate to calculate calories burned
does it have things like general cardio/HIIT/indoor workout/cardio workout/strenght training....i need your response for this
Does Alexa really work on this Fib U Pro and is it very accurate?
It does work. You do need to read it if the watch but it does work
What did you compare then sleep tracking with?
My Whoop Band 3.0. Basically made for sleep tracking
Can you put music on it?
There is a music specific version that has storage to put music on
What's the price in dollars??
Starts at 59$ but can go on sale
@@FitnessWithFrost ok thanks, keep up the good work 👍
Thank you very much! Good luck on your fitness journey
is it best than honor watch ES?
I never have not gotten my hands on the honor watch ES to give a fair comparison
Mi band 6 vs Pro?
If you don't need a bigger screen or GPS I would definitely go with the Mi Band 6. The Mi Band 5 had great sensors so I would assume that 6 does too
This or the GTS 2 mini?
I haven't personally gotten my hand in the GTS 2 mini, but I from what I have researched is that the GTS line does has better sensors, so I would probably go to the GTS line
This. HUAWEI watches are terrible at 3rd party or Gpx export. They promised strava for two years and failed to deliver. Amazfit watches work well with strava and you can access your run data better.
Haven't really tried to export out, but I think I might start to. Thanks for the info
Does it have compass feature?
I am not sure of hand. I couldn't find any, but their might be a 3rd party app
Yes, it does! It won't show GPS coordinates (like the original BIP), but the compass itself is there and works well.
Thank you for answering that!
Are the gps is accurate?
Pretty accurate, but if your looking for the best accuracy I wouldn't recommend this. It's sample rate is a little slow so if you're doing a bunch of turns it will bounce around a bit
Does it have nfc?
I have heard rumors about the Chinese version might have NFC, but currently it does not
@@FitnessWithFrost thank you!
No problem. Glad I could help
Mine won't charge.
That's definitely not good. Try to contact their customer service
@@FitnessWithFrost They don't have a way of contacting customer service. I contacted Amazon and they gave me a credit to order a replacement charger.
Amazon wouldn't let you return the entire thing? That sucks. Hopefully the charger helps. If not return the whole thing
@@FitnessWithFrost could have exhanged but figured I'd just try a new charger and see if that's the issue

The Bip U Pro is fairly accurate but I did see more drops in heart rate during workouts
@@FitnessWithFrost okay than which fitness tracker is the best in your opinion if not Amazfit Fib U Pro?
Staying at that price range the Charge 4 is still a great buy if it's on sale. But if you do want the better display you can't beat the Bip U Pro
I would like to know what are the details shown in the workout report
What specificity would you like to know?
@@FitnessWithFrost Does it show mapping and altitude report?
I couldn't even get the GPS to work on mine sadly. So I'm not the biggest fan of it

Definitely get the Band 5
