A smartwatch with an AMOLED display for under $80? Meet the Amazfit Bip 6

Just when we thought the awesome Amazfit Active 2 was our top contender for best cheap smartwatch of the year, the Chinese brand has dropped an even more affordable watch that, at least on paper, looks like it punches well above it weight.

Retailing for just $79.99 / £79.99, the Amazfit Bip 6 launched yesterday, boasting a 1.97in screen with brilliant 2,000 nit AMOLED display, which is the same used in the considerably pricier Apple Watch 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2. Unlike the Apple Watch, however, you won't need to charge the Bip 6 daily – the brand says you can expect up to 14 days of battery life, or 32 hours in GPS mode, which is an improvement of four days over the Bip 5.
