    I think knowing the HR averages are good enough for me. And what does exercises mode even mean? Videos like you’re mention it but never going depth. 120 modes. Is what the marketing image and copy says it’s doesn’t tell me anything.

      Hello, glad you found the HR sensor accuracy helpfu!
      The exercise modes are the different activities that the watch is capable of recording. Things like running, treadmill, indoor cycling, tennis, badminton, volleyball, etc...different manufacturers call them different things - exercise modes / activities/ workouts / sports....
      In my other video showing 9 Pro Tips to Master the Amazfit Bip 5 (th-cam.com/video/0anH11kNfWY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=jZWhqSgv-M8LlfnS), tip number 4 shows you how to record other activities like Tennis that isn't visible right away on the Bip 5's activities screen 😀 its got things like Judo and Curling!!!

      @@thewearableist can't wait! Also quick question can the amazfit bip 5 download maps to navigate with offline?

    • @thewearableist
      @thewearableist  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Unfortunately there is no way to download maps to view them straight onto the Bip 5. There are navigation apps within the Zepp App that you can download onto the Bip 5, and you can apparently then get turn-by-turn navigation from Google Maps running on your phone onto the watch...however, I spent a lot of time trying to get this to work but it just didn't during my testing period. I wouldn't recommend the Bip 5 for that specific feature as many of the smart apps don't work well on Bip 5.

    Amazing video 10/10 but i have one question. Is the paywall in the app a problem if you want to track youre stats acurate?

    • @thewearableist
      @thewearableist  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks so much!
      The Zepp App shows most stats without paywals. You can also increase the frequency of HR measurement within the Zepp App - no issues with paywalls here too. Other stuff such as Zepp Coach and Weekly Report give you additional insight and stats on top of the free stuff in the Zepp App but don't increase the accuracy of the HR measurement of the Bip 5.
      Hope that helps.

    Which is best
    Amazfit bip 5 or bi5 5 unity

    • @thewearableist
      @thewearableist  2 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Hello 👋🏼 thanks for watching!
      Bip 5 Unity is a newer product than the original Bip 5. I haven't tested the Bip5 Unity (yet) but its running the newer software from Zepp (version 3.0) compared to the older 2.0 version in the Bip 5, so you'll likely see improvements in frame rates, colours, animations and speed. Many of the features look the same but the Bip 5 Unity costs $20 LESS than the original Bip 5. If it were me, I'd probably go for the Unity given the features are largely similar.
      I don't know how Amazfit have managed to pull this off, but the Bip 5 Unity is now in direct competition with the CMF Watch Pro which also costs $69!
      Hope that helps 😀

      Actually they played a trick ; removed GPS from unity so that the Bip 5 looks still relevant, amazfit is actually creating confusion again. It's getting hard to pick one as Bip 5 has GPS and Unity has a lower price and new OS update with metal frame.

    • @thewearableist
      @thewearableist  2 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Hello.
      Yes, there will always be something that will be removed to justify the lower cost of the newer watch (which in this case appears to be in-built GPS).
      If GPS tracking from the watch itself is important to you (which worked well on the Bip 5 in my experience) and you feel that the feature is worth the extra $20 then yes the Bip 5 would make sense over the Unity purely for that added feature.
      In the Zepp App, you can definitely start activities and use the phone's GPS but I haven't tested this with the Unity myself as of yet.
      Hope that helps 😀

    Is the steps accurate with iphone?

    • @thewearableist
      @thewearableist  7 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Hello 👋🏻 Almost all wearables will under or overestimate steps to an extent due to false hand movements and shorter movements around the house. In my experience the Amazfit Bip 5 underestimated steps by around 700-800 steps compared to the Garmin Vivosmart 5 and Garmin Venu 2, both of which I wore at the same time as the Bip 5. It does not matter if you use an iPhone or Android as the steps count and all other metrics are independent of the phone and app.
      Ultimately, the steps are only a rough estimate whichever wearable you buy, I wouldn't worry a lot about the steps accuracy.
      Hope that helps 😀

      Ah the Apple Watch is a different ballgame! It really depends on what you want from your wearable - a premium smartwatch like Apple Watch that can deal with all sorts of "smart" stuff without you having to touch your phone but has a poor battery life OR a budget wearable that does half the smart things an apple watch can, with a close to a week's battery and costs much less. Decisions decisions I guess 🤔
