-very limited apps
-very limited watch faces with oddly specific 90s themed designs, and a few semi simplistic faces.
-you can't answer calls or text, even with quick replies. Can only decline a call...
-no audio controls (Spotify or otherwise)
-the steps are over calculated (apparently walked over 600 steps on a 60 min drive)
-if you want to set a timer, that's the ONLY thing you can do until the timer is up! Can't even see the time...
-UI is super choppy.
-if you're wearing polarized Sunglasses, you can't see the screen when it's on. I mean come on...
I have quite a few other wyze products which I'm overall quite happy with. This was a disappointment, even at this price, I was expecting more.
It's a mediocre fitness band with a watch face.
TL DR: Hardware is nice, software sucks, but hopefully will be updated

Might consider one at some point. I don't usually wear watches but find smart watches interesting.
the one thing missing is no media controls. i just assumed this would support that. nope!
Would like more custom faces. I added a picture on one of the watches, and can't delete or change it, so they need to fix that. Actually, I need to try again since the software update, and the fact we switched from Android to iPhones. Hmmmm.
Preordered it ONLY because of the 9-day battery life, & the low entry price. Have used it for a month & could confirm that the 47mm Watch looks beautiful. Hopefully, with future software updates there will be new watch faces. I already see an improvement in 'raise to wake' after the recent software update.

I've found the heart rate and oximeter to be pretty close to the dedicated one you put on a finger.
Lost the charging cable last week some time during a trip. Emailed them only to find you can't buy a replacement from them yet. "Individual Wyze Watch charging cables are not available for purchase at this time. Adding them to our Shop is on our Wish List!
We hope this helps! You can find more information in our Help Center article here."
Nope, that does not help.
Found one on Amazon after reading some wyze forums from others who lost/damaged theirs. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08Q7QKH29 (but only the white one works).

Pros:
- Battery life amazing, I just finally had to charge it the night before
- The hardwire is premium and has the look and feel of an Apple Watch.
- The screen is top quality
- Notifications for me works great. Having email, text, messenger, various app notifications makes it worth it. Sitting or driving to just glance down is very
convenient without having to pick up the phone.
- Temperature app is very convenient.
- Can customize watch face, upload any photo. I made mine look like KITT from Knight Rider
- Heart sensor, O2 sensor, sleep sensor all premium features included
Cons:
- Yes it's true, it's canned watch faces are a little to be desired. Hopefully they can improve
- Not sure HOW accurate the heart, O2, sleep sensors are
- Software does look very nascent, hopefully with time will improve.
If you're like me like tech but not willing to spend $300 on a watch, but throwing $25 and change into this is COMPLETELY worth it for what all you get.
For me just getting notifications on the phone is worth it. A quick glance at an email, text, FB messenger, or app notification can save you time. I'm also a gig worker so a job might pop up and it's so convenient. Also you see incoming phone calls too and can hang up.
Anyways, just my thoughts. And you're supporting an American company. Have a good one!
So…..

Don't have experience with either brand's watches, though, so don't take this as a recommendation for either one.
Side note: I think the Amazfit Bip listing you were looking at that was $100 more than this watch (I'm guessing this one at $125 [amazon.com]) is an Amazon Marketplace seller and might be discontinued. I believe official Amazfit products are shipped and sold by Amazon.com or by Amazfit.
