Amazfit Active Edge User Manual

The Amazfit Active Edge is a versatile smartwatch designed for fitness enthusiasts and casual users alike. It combines essential health tracking features with GPS capabilities, making it suitable for various activities. Below is a detailed overview of its key features, performance, and usability.

Design and Build Quality

The Amazfit Active Edge features a sleek design that balances functionality with style. While the materials used are primarily plastic, which may not feel as premium as some competitors, the watch remains lightweight and comfortable for all-day wear. The straps are functional but may be stiffer compared to higher-end models.

Display

The watch has a touchscreen display with a resolution of 360 x 360 pixels. However, it lacks an always-on display feature, meaning users must raise their wrist to view the time or data on the screen. This can be inconvenient during activities where quick glances at the watch are necessary.

Health and Fitness Tracking

The Amazfit Active Edge excels in health monitoring:

• Heart Rate Monitoring: Continuous heart rate tracking is available, with options for measuring at intervals of 1 minute or 10 minutes.
• Sleep Tracking: The device records both night sleep and naps lasting more than 20 minutes.
• • Blood Oxygen Measurement (SpO₂): Users can measure their blood oxygen levels using the built-in sensor.
  • Stress Monitoring: The watch provides insights into stress levels throughout the day.

  GPS and Navigation

  Equipped with standalone GPS capabilities, the Amazfit Active Edge allows users to track outdoor activities without needing to connect to a smartphone. It supports various sports modes including outdoor running, cycling, swimming, and more. However, indoor positioning services are not supported.

• Battery Life

  Battery life varies based on usage scenarios:

  • In typical usage conditions (heart rate monitoring every 10 minutes), it can last up to 15 days.
  • Under heavy usage (heart rate monitoring every minute), battery life decreases significantly but still offers respectable performance during activities.

  Smart Features

  The watch integrates seamlessly with the Zepp app for enhanced functionality:

  • Users can customize training templates and interval training directly from the app.
  • Notifications from smartphones can be received on the watch.
  • It supports payment through membership cards at select retailers.

  • Performance Comparison

    In testing, the heart rate accuracy was impressive (+/- 0.88 BPM), while GPS performance varied depending on terrain—showing better results on open roads compared to steep trails.

    Conclusion

    Overall, the Amazfit Active Edge is an excellent choice for those seeking an affordable smartwatch that covers essential fitness tracking needs without overwhelming complexity. Its combination of health metrics and GPS functionality makes it suitable for both casual users and fitness enthusiasts looking for basic tracking capabilities.
