What we like about Amazfit Verge

  • Excellent value for money, offering features like GPS and heart rate monitoring at an affordable price.
  • Vibrant and sharp 1.3-inch AMOLED display that is easily readable in various lighting conditions.
  • Strong battery life, typically lasting up to 5 days on a single charge with moderate use.
  • Ability to take and make phone calls directly from the wrist when paired with an Android smartphone.
  • Lightweight and comfortable design, making it suitable for long-term wear during exercise and sleep.
  • Accurate fitness and activity tracking for a wide variety of sports including running and cycling.

What we don't like about Amazfit Verge

  • Limited water resistance (IP68), which is sufficient for light splashes but not recommended for swimming.
  • Proprietary OS lacks support for third-party apps, limiting customization and expansion.
  • The companion Amazfit/Zepp app is often described as basic, with sometimes buggy syncing or limited settings.
  • All-plastic/polycarbonate build can feel 'toy-like' or less durable compared to metal-clad competitors.
  • The custom strap design can make it difficult to find and fit standard third-party replacement bands.
  • Inconsistent sleep tracking reported by some users compared to dedicated sleep monitors.

Verdict

The Amazfit Verge is a lightweight, 46g fitness-oriented smartwatch featuring a vibrant 1.3-inch AMOLED display (360x360 resolution) protected by Gorilla Glass 3 and housed in a 43mm reinforced polycarbonate chassis. It is powered by a 1.2GHz dual-core processor with 512MB RAM and 4GB of internal storage, supporting 12 sports modes and accurate tracking via built-in GPS+GLONASS, a heart rate sensor, and various environmental sensors like a barometer and geomagnetic sensor. Key advantages include its ability to make and receive Bluetooth calls (Android only), on-board music storage, and a reliable 5-day battery life from its 390mAh capacity. However, it is held back by a bulky, plastic design that some find 'toy-like,' an IP68 rating that is not suitable for swimming, a lack of multitasking in its proprietary OS, and limited compatibility for call features on iOS.
