Home Technology Gadgets Amazfit Bip 5 smartwatch now available in UAE The smartwatch is also the first of the series to integrate the Zepp OS, which brings a feature of advancements beyond what’s typically found in an entry-level smartwatch by Divsha Bhat August 14, 2023 Image credit: Supplied Amazfit, a smart wearables brand owned by Zepp Health, a health technology company, has made the new Amazfit Bip 5 available globally. The smartwatch is available across the UAE through its exclusive distribution partner Eros Group. The Amazfit Bip 5 not only features the brand’s biggest screen on a globally available product, but it is also the first member of the Amazfit Bip series to integrate the Zepp OS – which brings a feature advancements beyond what’s typically found in an entry-level smartwatch, a statement said. Bigger on screen-size and personalisation Measuring 1.91-inch, its LCD touchscreen is the biggest on any Amazfit smartwatch that’s currently available and is made with glass which features a slight curve, for a more natural view when worn. Users can explore a vast range of over 70 stylish watch faces, or even select the portrait watch face option which switches between up to three of the user’s uploaded pictures each time they wake up the display. Smarter on lifestyle features Along with the addition of the Amazon Alexa online voice assistant and support for Bluetooth calls, via the built-in microphone and speaker, the Amazfit Bip 5 provides users with access to more than 70 downloadable mini apps that provide an approach to health, fitness and daily life. Furthermore, over 30 mini games are included in this ecosystem. Health and fitness features Meanwhile, for the first time in the Amazfit Bip series, the combination of the health-centred Zepp OS 2.0 and advanced BioTracker PPG sensor found in the smartwatch allows users to monitor their blood-oxygen saturation 24 hours a day, along with heart rate and stress levels. The device can even be set to provide alerts for these three metrics if abnormal readings are detected throughout the day. In addition, more than 120 workout modes are now available – compared to over 60 of the previous generation. Users can set the watch to auto-detect seven sports movements, or even read out their sports data in real-time via the built-in speaker, for a smarter approach to exercise. The Amazfit Bip 5 is just as smart post-workout as it is intra-workout, with the integration of Amazfit’s PeakBeats algorithm – which presents exercise data like VO₂ Max for easy viewing after workouts have ended – and the ability for users to share their sports data to fitness apps like adidas Running and Strava, via the Zepp App. “The Amazfit Bip 5 is the ideal fusion of style and substance, created to improve the lives of its users with innovative features and a stylish design,” commented to Mohammed Badri, director at Eros Group. “The Amazfit Bip 5 perfectly embodies this ethos, showcasing energy efficiency while empowering users to prioritize their overall wellbeing. With EROS Group’s extensive retail network across the UAE, this state-of-the-art smartwatch will be easily accessible, allowing UAE residents to embrace a healthier and more conscious lifestyle. Users can always stay motivated and informed about their health and fitness thanks to the app’s extensive health and fitness features, making it a must-have wearable for all,” he added.
