Amazfit Cheetah Smart Watch with Dual-Band GPS, Route Navigation & Offline Maps, Training Template, Heart Rate Monitor, Alexa-Built In

Product Information

Outside of sports tracking, it does perform like a fitness tracker and will also record heart rate continuously, blood oxygen levels, daily step counts and sleep breathing quality. For a track workout, it was 50 meters short of the Garmin, clocked us running at a much quicker average pace, and the mapped data wasn't perfect. I read a review, where reviewer states, that battery usage for GPS + eSim (standalone connectivity, no phone around) eats up around 10% of battery an hour.

That means it’s sitting up against watches like the Garmin Forerunner 255 as opposed to the pricier (and newer) Forerunner 265, the Polar Pacer Pro, and also comes in cheaper than the Coros Apex 2. The Amazfit Cheetah (Round) is advertised as "a practical watch for aspiring athletes who want to train more efficiently" and shares most of the specs and features with the Pro model, with the most notable difference in the screen size and design department. But at the end of the day, you might just be wondering “What does Ray use when not testing new products?Personalized AI-powered Running Coach】The Zepp Coach harnesses the power of AI to provide personalized running plans, which are generated based on your current level, target race type and date, and your goal for the race. Predictions felt nicely in line with other predictions on a Garmin watch that has a much longer history of data to fuel those predictions. With its GPS accuracy, AI-powered smart coaching, health monitoring, lightweight design, and long battery life, this watch is a worthy investment for any runner looking to improve their performance and stay on top of their health and fitness. On top of the core running stats there’s also insights available like training load, VO2 Max estimates and a recovery advisor, which seemed to be nicely in tune with the Garmin I was wearing, which offers good guidance but shouldn’t always be taken as definitive advice.

Heart rate doesn’t work for me for running as it locks onto my running cadence which as an example results in a base run showing close to my maximum heart rate of 180 not my base run rate of around 140.

Again – on paper, and even person, the Amazfit Cheetah Pro is a beautifully stunning lightweight sport watch.

Here’s a map-less shot from my run last night (because I couldn’t get the maps to download), and while the route line is visible, it’s not as crispy as the other pages. While it’s certainly not a watch that I (or most of your readers, I imagine) would be particularly interested in, I think it’s great what Amazfit is doing. The Cheetah Pro can perform as a smartwatch and has the kind of things you’d expect to find on a smartwatch.

Then came Coros who started to innovate beyond what Garmin had brought to market and put all its new sports features inside very well-made shells. I used it alongside the Oura Ring Gen 3 and found it recorded similar sleep duration, sleep scores and actually delivered more reliable sleep heart rate data as well. In the below section of street, I had stayed on the left side – so you’re looking at classic skyscraper GPS signal reflection.
