Promises bang for your buck
Update (May 24): Amazon has revealed the price of Amazfit Bip S on the site already. It will be priced at Rs 4,999, similar to the Amazfit Bip.

It has a colourful transflective display and 5 ATM water resistance which translates to “Water-Resistant to 50 Meters”, so a dip in the swimming pool should not be a problem. The company claims a battery life of 40 days which is quite exceptional for a smartwatch.

It rocks a 1.28" transflective MIP display with a large viewing area, making it easily viewable under direct and bright sunlight. The display of the smartwatch renders true bright colours with 64 Gamut, which is a welcome feature.
Overall, the key features of the Huami Bip S promise to be a value for money proposition mainly due to the presence of a heart rate monitor and GPS. Being a lightweight device and offering great battery life also count in its favour.
While the price in the US market is around $69.90, it is expected to launch in India below the Rs 5,000 mark.
