There are so many things I love about this watch! I've had several smart watches ranging from $25 to $300, and this one is the BEST!! THERE ARE SO MANY FUNCTIONS! I don't like to write reviews because I'm a horrible texter from my phone but, I HAD to sit down and take the time because this watch is just SO AMAZINGIn no particular order:1. I love that you can hit either button on the side in order to turn the display on.2. The connection from bluetooth is seemless3. Once you turn the watch on , you can easily turn the display off by covering it with your hand- which is super helpful at nighttime when you don't want to have a bright light.4. The "find my phone: feature works perfectly even when my actual phone is on vibrate or on silent mode. It makes my phone either vibrate or ding, even if I have the ringer off5. The app is super friendly and easy to use.6. The voice assistant works well7. You can voice text a reply to text messages8. The user interface is easily customizable, allowing you to choose which features you want to quickly access9. The GPS is built in- you do have to download a map of the area you want to locate10. Both a pro and a con - you can only choose 50 numbers to store (which is more than many other watches allow)11. Picture text messages display on the watch12. Sleep tracker is informative13. You get tips on improving your sleep score14. Pretty in depth heart monitoring- tracks various stages beyond pulse (sleep rate, resting rate, tells you if your heart rate increased or decreased after exercise).15. Multiple reminder options: go to sleep, walk, stand, move16. Congratulates you on goals (steps, standing, etc)17. Gives you a pretty in depth summary of your readiness for the day based on your sleep- comments on: physical recovery, mental recovery, sleep RHR, Sleep HRV, breath quality, temperature - tracks it for 7 days.18. Great battery life19. I have tiny wrist and the watch band size/length is perfect because the excess strap does not cover the sensors on my wrist.20. The watch band stays nicely tucked in21. You can easily put it in sleep mode and do not disturb mode22. Easily pair headphones23. Has a lock feature for going swimming24. The initial display tells you a TON of info: time, Heart rate, weather, steps, distance, date, day of week, readiness score, sleep hours from the night before, battery, altitude, hours you've stood, calories burned, etc25. Easily see the weather for the day and full week.26. Quick access to the calendar27. Great to-do check off list (add you're items in the app) check them off from your watch- think grocery list or daily reminders28. Play music29. See upcoming events30. Takes your temperature31. Has a compass32. Has a barometer33. SO MUCH MOREThings I don't like:1. Limited face dial options to switch out. You have to pay for most options - they're about $2. However the standard one is very informative2. Once you look at your text messages on your watch and reply, they automatically delete from your watch history. I would like the option to keep them and be able to send an additional reply.3. You cannot initiate a text message from your watch. You can only reply.4. You can't send an audio text messages and you cannot listen to audio text messagesBut seriously, this is THE BEST Watch I've tested and owned. It blew me away with features. I love it!!

I’m a frugal shopper, but I’m picky. I’m always trying to get the most for my money. I tried many cheaper smart watches with comparable hardware. This one was the most expensive. I tried comparable smart watches for less than half the price of this one, but this is the one I’ll be keeping. It’s worth the extra expense, depending on your needs.What sets this watch apart from cheaper options is the software, both on the watch itself and in the app. These folks have really hit it out of the park when it comes to customizability, which is very important to me. For me, this is a tech gadget first and health monitoring tool second. I was looking to get lots of options for customization and lots of options for watch faces and this watch delivers. Cheaper watches would offer maybe 3-4 watch faces that I actually liked. This watch literally has so many watch faces available that I haven’t yet seen them all. All the menus on the watch can be customized, if there’s a feature I don’t use then I can remove it from the menus. Literally no other watch I tried offered this. Things can be tweaked and tuned to a high degree. The ability to install apps was unexpected and appreciated. Everything feels well thought out for what a technical smart watch user would want.Hardware seems great. Fit and finish is top notch. It’s a great looking device. I’m not a fan of the leather band, but the silicone band is really nice. The bezel and crystal are beautiful and look expensive, the premium version is worth it. The buttons have a good feel, and I love that their functions can be changed. The vibration is strong and quiet. I have the speaker notifications muted but it’s a nice option. I like that I can take calls from the watch if I choose. It reliably reconnects to my phone after I leave range and come back. Notifications seem consistent. Battery life with all the bells and whistles turned on seems to consume about 20% per day. It feels natural on my wrist, not heavy or bulky.Health tracking wise it seems fine. This is not my primary usage for the watch but it seems fully functional and pretty accurate in this area.All in all I highly recommend this watch.

I've only had/worn the watch for about 6 weeks but I love it! It has a beautiful design. It looks great, feels great and has a great variety of watch faces. But none of those would mean anything if the watch functions didn't work well. It works great! The accuracy for gps tracking of my walking workouts is accurate. The heart rate tracking is accurate and the feeds for things like the weather are easily accessible. I previously had a FitBit Versa 2 for 2-3 years and always had issues with it connecting and synching to the app on the phone. Also, when I wore it to bed, I would wake up and see that I obviously was sleep walking because I might have 300-500 steps recorded before I even got out of the bed. No such issues with my AmazFit 2. Most days I walk my dog on the same route and the distance records within a tenth to 2 tenths and the steps are within what I would call a reasonable tolerance. (obviously my stride and pace vary from walk to walk). Other measurements like elevation profile also seem to be bang on (although I have no way of checking the accuracy, but the measurements from day to day are almost identical for the same route). I love this watch!
