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/Freestyle
WEATHER gives you current local conditions and forecast for the next six days. Temperature/Humidity/Level/Quality
EVENTS 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.

El producto es de buena calidad funciona muy bien el problema que note es que las letras son muy pequeñas y en mi caso no alcanzo a distinguirlas por lo que se lo di a mi hijo que está más joven. Por todo lo demás está ok
Están bonitos pero el color varía un poco –
Foi presente para meu neto Pedro . Ele está curtindo muito. Produto muito bom. Eu já tenho um Band 4 já faz muito tempo.

NEW UPDATE!! Ok so I got my Amazfit 5 watch 7 months ago. It still works fine…BUT HERE’S THE KICKER….I was gifted a fitbit charge 5 which retails around $119 at the moment..but I’m sure was higher upon release….anyways…I LOVE MY AMAZFIT MORE!! So much more
. I love the details on the app better…and it’s laid out way better. The amazfit alerts me to my heart rate over a certain limit..perhaps the fitbit does but it’s so confusing at times…it seems to check heart rate periodically. Also on my amazfit 5 I can check my oxygen level anytime…fitbit only gives a reading after so many hrs of sleep… and that’s it. Also I don’t see anything about daytime naps…or details about sleep on the fitbit..although it tracks rem deep and light(I never got a rem reading on amazfit but that’s fine) The amazfit isn’t as big and bulky as the fitbit…it actually looks more sleek to me than the fitbit charge 5…..even though the face isn’t as big…and the graphics are an (irrelevant) tad bit lower pixel than fitbit. I have showered with amazfit..with the fitbit you cant…the fitbit has a few features that amazfit doesn’t like skin temp and afib measurer..but you actually have to initiate it(afib)…I don’t even use these so no deal breaker…also…the fitbit has functions that seem to come with (amazfit for free) that you only get if you subscribe to premium on fitbit. So overall I love my 38 dollar watch…not sure of the price now…but a 38 dollar watch which you can buy multiple bands to switch it up… for under 15 bucks is, for me, a winner. The amazfit 5 never failed me. As a matter of fact I believe I will be putting IT back on..because I’ve been wearing this fitbit for a couple weeks and it’s just not as good. It takes long to sync and seems to disconnect from blue tooth on my phone…and has repairing issues which are ongoing.. While I appreciate the present… I just had to let you guys know. Amazfit 5 is worth it… PS…I didn’t get paid to say these things. It’s just true. And as a second update to intial review…I could have just bypassed…but this Amazfit is def worth trying.
This is an update to my poor review of the watch. It finally worked after I figured out I had to actually touch the pair first symbol. It then paired. The features are actually good for a low price watch and the screen although is little..works for me. I don’t know how accurate it is but it seems ok. It alerts when you haven’t moved lately so that’s a plus. It also has a breathing exercise function which is useful. ..which guides your breathing for like a minute. Yeah I like the watch. Its an ok to good buy for me. However the company needs better directions. That way we know if it works or not. I know it may be an older watch..bit if people are still buying then we deserve a better manual. Not everyone is techsmart. I vocoder myself to be savvy and I had a heck of a time. So maybe better instructions. Overall great gift buy. Good watch. Nice price.
