The range of Amazfit, a well-known contract manufacturer of Xiaomi Mi Band fitness bracelets, has been replenished with the first models in the history of the brand designed specifically for running. We are talking about the Cheetah and Cheetah Pro watches.
Both models are equipped with AMOLED displays. The basic version, which weighs 49 grams, has a 1.39-inch screen with a resolution of 454 × 454 pixels. The Pro version received a slightly larger screen – its size is 1.45 inches, and the resolution is 480 × 480 mm. At the same time, the Cheetah Pro model is lighter than its “younger brother” – the weight of the watch is 43 grams. Another difference between the pro version and the base one is the titanium alloy frame and the presence of a speaker.
New from Amazfit received not only a standard set of functions, but also specialized features for runners
The battery capacity is the same – 440 mAh. A full charge is enough to use the watch for 14 days in normal mode. It has all the functions that have already become traditional for fitness bracelets and smart watches: tracking heart rate and blood oxygen levels, monitoring sleep quality, and determining the maximum level of oxygen consumption. There are 150 training modes. The watch is protected from moisture penetration (5 ATM). Declared support for voice assistant Alexa and calls via Bluetooth.
If we talk about specific features, the developers have added a Track Run mode to the watch. It collects information useful for people who are fond of running: time, distance, pace of each lap and others. It is reported about the presence of a virtual coach based on artificial intelligence. The watch is also equipped with a dual-band MaxTrack GPS antenna for improved positioning accuracy (up to 99.5%).
Sales of Amazfit running watches have already started. The Cheetah version will set you back $200. For Cheetah Pro, you will have to pay $ 100 more.
