Amazfit expands its catalog with the Active 3 Premiuma smartwatch designed for those who start running seriously or combine running with gym sessions. It is not the most spectacular watch that the brand has presented, but it is one of the most balanced in terms of price and performance.
The screen 1.32 inch AMOLED with sapphire crystal and up to 3,000 nits of brightness is, possibly, the most striking thing about the design. The set weighs 54.6 grams, has a stainless steel frame and four physical buttons, which is appreciated by anyone who has tried to navigate menus with sweaty fingers in the middle of a workout. The 658 mAh battery promises 13 days of autonomy in normal use, a reasonable figure for everything it includes.
Amazfit Active 3 Premium: notable features and a competitive price
In terms of functions, the Active 3 Premium arrives with Zepp Coach for adaptive training plans, more than 170 sports modes and quite complete running metrics for its price: power, posture, lactate threshold, ground contact time. It also incorporates offline maps with GPS from six satellite systems, continuous health monitoring and even a speaker and microphone for Bluetooth calls. It is compatible with Strava, TrainingPeaks and Runna, making it easy to integrate into the ecosystem that most amateur runners already use.
From now on you can buy it at Amazfit official storethe launch price is 169.90 eurosand that is where the firm has its strongest argument. At that figure it competes directly with the entry-level range from Garmin and Polar, brands that charge considerably more for similar features on paper. The problem is not the watch itself, but the catalog that surrounds it: the Active Max, launched in December 2025 at a similar price, shares so many functions with this Active 3 Premium that it is difficult to understand who each one is aimed at. Amazfit has been adding models for some time without finishing its line properly, and that raises doubts even if the specific product is good.
