This is a nice-looking and feature packed smartwatch. It may be one of the best for the price. However, there are a few shortcomings to cosider. GET the Amazfit 2 here: bit.ly/2ssVUI8
TechLineHD when can I find out when the English varient will be on the market? Also, will nfc be able to be used with Android pay? I got big wrist so I feel this is perfect.
I wish this had a mic mainly for responding to messages, such as the old pebble could do. That made staying in touch while cycling pretty effortless. It seems that only devices with poor battery life, like Android watches, currently have this capability. If the Pace and Stratos had this, I would be soirely tempted. I would also like to see rowing added to the activities, but I am sure that is a much more niche desire.
Hello! Fyi, English rom is out for a few days, buttons are not only "if you don't like touchscreen" but for under water use (swimming), it is not 4Gb for music but in total (shared with OS..)
TechLineHD hello! I didn't tried yet, I don't have the watch, I have read this howto (link below). It's in French, you may try with Google translate. It must be some English howto available. xiaomi-passion.com/tutoriel-mettre-en-anglais-la-montre-amazfit-stratos-2/
Too big me too. The battery life is aweesome. For calls not a deal-breaker because its a watch not phone. Deal breaker - bezels. Finally awesome video.
Great review! And of course you stuck it in the snow! LOL. I personally don't have a need for one of these, but this really does appear to be a very decent product. Thanks for reviewing it!
The thing that I don’t understand is, with my previous mi band 2, I could see how many quilometres I’ve walked, but with the Amazfit Pace 1 or 2 I could only see it using the gps. They should change that.
Can you measure it and post dimensions please? Everybody reports these 23x3.5x1.5cm which is nonsense. Old one was 46mm in width is this one the same or bigger?
Can u review the Elephone U Pro??? Just saw this phone and if the specs and hardware are as good as it looks then I might consider buying it :) Great video as always! :)
For the built-in music player, can you fast-forward/backward to a specific time of the song? It's important to me because I listen to radio shows that I might need to fast-forward to a specific time to start listening.
Thanks for this video. Can you tell me if it's possible to have a indicator on watchface when notifications are avalaible ? (sorry for my bad english).
Hi, thanks for your video. Got one of these today and noticed it counts my steps but not my distance. No info about distance walked , just steps. Is it normal or should I do something? Thanks in advance!
Hi, very good review, not too long but still very informative. Can you please clarify how much accurate the gps is? I had an experience with amazfit one watch and its gps was not really accurate. For example I was running four rounds around the lake and gps trace showed that I was running through the water while my old galaxy s5 mini showed more precise track. As a result amazfit indicated distance cca 4.87 while s5 mini showed 5.0 km. This is quite a difference to me. Can you plese chceck this on amazfit 2? Thanks in advance.
You forgot to mention that it doesnt support Google Pay -- Not quite a deal breaker but for some people that would be a must have due to the price they are paying.
RoseOfHizaki do you think the English varient will support Google pay or something? Also, I cannot find information on the English varient anywhere online.
GOOD DEVICES BY XIAMI but let down by the very very poor app. I sent mine back after just one day of use, so disappointing that their support is even worst.
Stratos has terrible display and UI, and do not have app eco system. Comparing a WearOS watch with a limited feature watch(Huami) is like comparing apple with peanuts.

The english variant is allready on the market right now.
I want to buy it, which version is the best? Chinese or English?
The best review of this watch on RUclips. Period.
Thanks a lot, Tony!

Specs says it has mic. Is it enabled already in the fw updates ?

Hey! Thanks for the feedback! Can you give me the instructions how to flash English ROM? I would appreciate that

Thanks! Will try to port English in one way or another once I have some time!
Too big me too. The battery life is aweesome.
For calls not a deal-breaker because its a watch not phone. Deal breaker - bezels.
Finally awesome video.
Thanks, Daniel! There is finally a way to port the English language to it. It's a very solid watch overall
Hi, can you control songs from players on your phone such as spotify? Thank you and awesome review!
Great review! And of course you stuck it in the snow! LOL. I personally don't have a need for one of these, but this really does appear to be a very decent product. Thanks for reviewing it!
Thanks, Tim! hahah, yeah of course! Need to make the best out of winter + water-resistant gadgets.
Can u make a video how it works in fitness in google fit aps. And does it allow to hookup with an external heart rate monitor.
The thing that I don’t understand is, with my previous mi band 2, I could see how many quilometres I’ve walked, but with the Amazfit Pace 1 or 2 I could only see it using the gps. They should change that.
Amazing review Linus keep it up as always
Thanks Usman!

Thanks, Brady! Apparently, I will get that phone later than others. I need to start getting phones faster but it's not always that easy!
TechLineHD no worries, just like ur reviews more than others lol
It seems to be a pretty nice and solid device for the most part
great video but what is the Physical size of the watch 45mm?50
For the built-in music player, can you fast-forward/backward to a specific time of the song? It's important to me because I listen to radio shows that I might need to fast-forward to a specific time to start listening.
i dont want to anwser messages from a watch.
It will just notify you that you have a msg or someone's calling, not to reply or answer calls on it Lol. XD
Thanks for the video. Can I attach a steel strap instead of the rubber one or whatever that comes with the box??
Thanks! Yes, the strap is easily removable
You can now get steel strap for this watch from 3rd party vendors
Thanks for this video. Can you tell me if it's possible to have a indicator on watchface when notifications are avalaible ? (sorry for my bad english).
Thanks! Yes, it's possible but only with a few watch faces.
TechLineHD Thank you 👍🏻
Is that supporting ant+ or bluetooth sport sensors( like bike cadence and hrm belt)? And can we connect 2 sensors at same time?
What OS it use? And which one is better this watch or ticwatch e
Please compare with TicWatch 2, which one is better ?
Does it comes with any sounds coming out of it or its the same muted watch which can't be used even for alarm like the previous one?

Thanks for the video, I don't know which one choose between amazfit stratos or ticwatch s or e.
Can u help me?
LuchoGraffix stratos
this one looks better than the 1st gen too bad it won't come to my country
Do you think the english firmware will come to this chinese version ?
You forgot to mention that it doesnt support Google Pay -- Not quite a deal breaker but for some people that would be a must have due to the price they are paying.
RoseOfHizaki do you think the English varient will support Google pay or something? Also, I cannot find information on the English varient anywhere online.
Ben Scarbalis no it won't. It only supports alipay
RoseOfHizaki I'm tied on buying this with my S7...
Thanks for the review...It looks like a great watch
Thanks a lot!
What software and extension / video effect do you use to have that point and a line, like on minute 1:36 ?
Adobe After Effects...
Is it possible to put text documents in these type of watches ?
I am looking to get a smartwatch .should I get this when it come in English haha or should I get the Samsung frontier that I can get for 275euros
great review man
Thanks Nissan!
USD190 for this? Pretty sweet price, I just need a international version with English UI.
Konata Izumi international English available now
Question: Does it have a silent alarm function?
does it automatically track when you walk, run, workout or do you need to turn it on
Joris MASALINSKAS need to turn on individual sport modes to track them
I have question no one seems to answer. Is it possible to control spotify with the watch ,not only the onboarch media player?
Kryštof Sedloň yes you can control the music playing in your phone on Spotify
When English version will be available any idea?
there is a video on youtube how to make this watches menu in English.
Can I use it with my Huawei P10?
does it have a Gallery app or something?
Which one is that Bluetooth headset?
Hi. Please does it support Strava. Is it possible upload sports acitivity to Strava app? Thanks
Tomas Kmit yes you can sync to strava and its very easy
now there's an English version
Can it altimeter and it can make a call
is there a maps app available on this watch?
hi man battery day ?
pls compare stratos 2 vs 3 ?
Watch and learn! Stratospheric review, Linus
Thanks a lot, Scott!
What is the full diameter of the watch?
Very big. It doesn't cost 200$ I think. Amazfit bip is the best choice.
How do I pair the Stratos to an external heart-rate-monitor?
heike coelln first select your sport such as running, use settings / accessories menus from within the sport.
Does it work with iPhone?
nice review
Thanks a lot!
Indoors it is impossible to read. Fonts are too small and screen is too dark. Otherwise it is good.
can you uce spotify on it??
Do you know what activity uses the most battery?
- Bluetooth
- continuous HeartRate
- GPS
- backlight
I brought chinese version and how can I download app
Hii,can the watch switch to English language?
Hi, there are ways to do it. You need to search online for that
Is it possible to export the gps data?
Felix Faulpelz yes man you can
Nice Watch....
is it possible to change the language from Chinese to English?
I think they already have an international version in English, but a little more expensive than the Chinese version.
Can you control music playing on your phone?
Koolaidbeans yes you can
Hi,
I bought the previous version amaze-fit on last and itz not being updated
Could you please advise how can I update my device?
The stratos has wi-fi connection?
andres-col cast yes
can u sync to strava?..
kankan iskandar yes you can, and it's very easy
Anyone knows does it support Bluetooth calling?
Muhamad Hafiz Abdullah Clip says it does not.
Looks good, but it's quite bulky. Couldn't possibly wear it 24-7.
English version is available in AliExpress
It's unofficial ROM. The official model will be released soon and I will probably review it.
TechLineHD when will it drop
GOOD DEVICES BY XIAMI but let down by the very very poor app. I sent mine back after just one day of use, so disappointing that their support is even worst.
So It's (the app) nowhere as good as Garmin Connect?
Redmi Note 5 Pro launched in India with SD636. Phone looks kool and the pricing is OK
The notch is just a no no for me, I had one that had a notch, but ended up giving it away because of it
I can't believe it's just for best price bit.ly/2FTdebB
I'm happy, if i help you :)
ruclips.net/video/ShAmAjyCkDU/видео.html
Just try TicWatch E
Yili Lin It looks fantastic!
Yili Lin Tic Watch E is junk. I returned mine. Could not be more happy with Stratos.
Stratos has terrible display and UI, and do not have app eco system. Comparing a WearOS watch with a limited feature watch(Huami) is like comparing apple with peanuts.
💜💜💜💜💜💜
its not a full cirle display, such a downer
Tis watch not update in English language after few days my amazfit bip update to English after fews days
A smart watch must have hands free calling feature like gear s3, otherwise its a handicapped smart.
This watch is a sportwatch not a smartwatch!
You review this watch but you don’t even know how to wear the watch right
amazfit 1-2 very bad screen
Why you say that?
