Amazfit Active Square 2 goes for a compact design but not lacking in features and support but does that make it a quality buy?<\/h2>\n

The new Amazfit smartwatch looks to give the right balance of compact and feature rich<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

Amazfit makes some quality fitness wearables and smartwatches in the market and the new Active Square 2 looks to bring premiumness to a more accessible range. People continue to invest in wearables even though the demand has come down but you might be willing to spend money if the product delivers on most fronts and that\u2019s what Amazfit is looking to show with its new Square 2 smartwatch. <\/span><\/p>\n

It has opted for some unique design traits that makes it look different in a good way and the platform manages to get more out of the feature-rich wearable for Rs 12,999. So, does the Amazfit Square 2 offer promise to people who want a smartwatch, we tested the device to find these answers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Sleek And Compact<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Amazfit calls it Active Square and the design form itself gives it the identity that makes us avoid saying things like Apple Watch clones. The main unit gets 9mm in thickness and weighs around 31 grams without the strap, while you get two of them in the box. The default strap doesn\u2019t inspire confidence with its leather-like finish and black in colour.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

But the in-box orange coloured strap is more durable and won\u2019t be susceptible to sweat or dust causing irritation. Once you get past that, putting on the strap is easy and then you also have 5ATM resistance against deep water. When you strap on the Active Square 2 on the wrist, it is comfortable enough to wear for long hours and while sleeping.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The 1.75-inch AMOLED display fits nicely into the compact dimensions to give you a large screen estate for alerts, reading messages and more. The screen itself is bright, the colours are vibrant, and crisp for text readability similar to the panels you get on a phone.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The bezels are thin and the use of sapphire glass definitely makes it stronger enough to handle the usual bumps.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Features Galore<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Amazfit uses its Zepp OS platform to power the wearables which is a lot lighter than wearOS and watchOS but extremely packed with features. The Active Square 2 benefits from its versatility that balances out between health, fitness and functional tools rolled into one platform.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The app is nicely laid out with a section for home where you have the basic tracking features, workout is related to fitness and the Zepp coach, while Aura and device are linked to detailed summary and the settings for the Square 2, respectively.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The main part of health gives you the mix of fitness and regular tools like sleep monitor, SpO2 reader, heart rate sensor and more. It also has over 100+ sports modes that are effective but do get automatic detection.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Does It Work?<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Having these many features is all good, but has Amazfit packed in too much without focusing on their effectiveness? The overall performance of the Square 2 is quite good, be it fitness, health and your run-of-mill sleep tracking that goes really in-depth to help you change the sleep patterns and also advises long sleep to feel healthy and fresh.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The step counts are differing across wearables but the other useful metrics are accurate and we even matched the SpO2 reading with a medical oximeter to vouch for its correctness. So yeah, the Zepp OS platform is light in the background but it does not compromise with its performance.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Lasts Really Long<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Amazfit says the sleek Active Square 2 can go on for over 10 days on a single charge with its 260mAh unit. With so many features packed we weren\u2019t sure about its claims but then Zepp OS shows the virtue of a lightweight OS that delivers well above its weight.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

We easily got the Active Square 2 to run for over 6 days on an average, as the watch learnt the usage and decided to keep the sensors working in the background. You can manually turn off the always-on display, and other trackers to easily make it run for 10 days but that seems to limit its actual purpose.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Amazfit Active Square 2 is not flashy or unlikely to win any design awards but the overall package, including the Zepp OS gives you a reliable, effective and long-lasting watch that is priced decently for what it offers. <\/span><\/p>\n
