Amazfit Bip S vs Fitbit Versa - Where are the differences?
Where are the differences?
Let's check out the differences between the two Wearable Amazfit Bip S* and Fitbit Versa* in detail.
Display
You'll get a display with both devices. Here, both Wearable have an integrated color display. In both cases, there is a touch display. You only get an always-on display with the Bip S.
Waterproof
Both, the Bip S, as well as the Versa are waterproof, and have no further difference in this feature. Both Wearable can be used under water in depths of up to 50 m.
Battery
The Amazfit Bip S sports a longer battery runtime with 40 days. the Fitbit Versa battery lasts merely for 4 days. With active GPS, the battery of the Amazfit Bip S lasts 22,0 hours. The charging time between the two differs. the Amazfit Bip S takes 43.953,0 hours, which is more than the Versa's, that only takes 2,0 hours to recharge.
GPS
An integrated GPS of the Wearable is in this case only available with the Amazfit Bip S. GLONASS is only supported with the Bip S. With the Fitbit Versa you have the possibility to use Connected GPS. The GPS data are extracted from your phone, which you will have to carry with you. Compared to the integrated GPS, the Connected GPS is less accurate as your phone may lose its signal from time to time.
Heart Rate Monitor
A fitness watch without a heart rate monitor is basically useless and not advisable to buy. That's because your heart rate is one of the key elements of different calculations. For example, many devices without a heart rate monitor claim to count your calories burned too. That number will hardly be right without having access to your heart rate.
Comparing the Amazfit Bip S and the Fitbit Versa, both devices offer the heart rate monitor function and score in our books. On top of that, both will monitor your heart rate 24/7. Some devices only do that when you press a button, which is practically speaking rather useless.
Measured values
The number of floors you've covered, or altitude differences measured by your watch, can't be tracked with the Bip S. Only the Versa supports this function.
Both Wearable offer you the possibility to record your sleep time. On top of that, they also allow you to do a sleep analysis.
Smarct functions
Getting call, text, or other notifications is a feature that both tools have. Often times, this feature is only possible with an Android device. iOS user can be left behind on this.
Contactless payment
Contactless payment is a highly useful and more in demand than ever technology. Many Wearable already offer it. Being able to do this from your wrist is even more convenient than using your smartphone or a credit card. There's a difference here between the two products, as only the Versa enables you to pay contactless. The Versa works with Fitbit Pay.
