It also has a delightful always-on display so you can easily check everything from the time to the steps you take throughout the day. Also, it offers 14 different sports modes, which can display speed, distance reminders, heart rate data, and more.

Even when you’re asleep, the Amazfit Bip S Lite helps you out by monitoring your total sleep, sleeping patterns, and wake-up times.

For very little, you get a fairly comprehensive smartwatch when you buy the Amazfit Bip S Lite. While it might not quite rival the best smartwatches out there, at this price, it’s an ideal way to dip your toe into the fitness-tracking world. Normally priced at $50 at Amazon, the Amazfit Bip S Lite is down to just $40 for a limited time only. It’s a truly inexpensive way of checking out how you’re doing each day.
