Amazfit Active Max review: A high-end Garmin dupe for the price of an entry-level smartwatch
· By Endurance Wire
The $169 Amazfit Active Max is a sports-oriented smartwatch that punches above its price class thanks to a bright, easy-to-read display, epic battery life, loads of workout tracking modes, and handy features like support for offline maps and personalized workout plans. Put another way, while the Active Max is priced like an entry-level Garmin, including the excellent, beginner-friendly Forerunner 55 , many of the watch's features and specs read more like those of a higher-end Garmin, like the Forerunner 965 . But can it compete with the best Garmin watches when it comes to tracking accuracy, design, durability, etc.?
