Amazfit simply amazed us with its Smart watch Active 2which we gave a full five stars and marked it as one of best cheap smartwatches you can buy it for money in our review. The manufacturer is now believed to be working on a more premium offering in the form of the Amazfit Active Max, and a fresh leak has just shed more light on the upcoming device.
Oddly enough, the new information is not coming from some anonymous leaker or knowledgeable analyst – no, it appears to be coming directly from Amazfit itself. This gives it considerable weight and suggests that the details it contains may well have significance.
It all happened when Amazfit accidentally published listing project for the Active Max smartwatch on their website – a message that has since been removed. There, details and images suggest that the Active Max will support Zepp Pay contactless payments and will have a 576mAh battery that should keep it charged for 25 days. You'll be able to track a range of health and fitness metrics, including sleep quality, heart rate and SpO2 levels, and will also support BioCharge energy monitoring.

Just yesterday, informant Roland Quandt shared some intriguing details related to the product, including that it will supposedly feature a 1.5-inch screen.

No release date yet
The Amazfit Active 2 offered incredible value for its $99/£99 price tag, and while the Active Max is expected to be a higher-end device, rumors indicate it will remain affordable with an expected price of €169.90 in Europe, which could equate to around $169/£130/AU$250.
An asking price in this range means it's well under the $249 price tag. Apple Watch SE 3which is one of the best smartwatches available right now. The two devices won't be exactly the same, but anyone looking for a new smartwatch and doesn't want to spend the money might be tempted by Amazfit's Active Max when it eventually gets a release date.
