Runners, rejoice! Amazon’s 2026 Prime Day sale brings with it a 15% discount on the Amazfit Active 3 Premium, which is an especially good fitness smartwatch for those hoping to spend under $150.
Great battery life, fitness features, and responsiveness make the Active 3 Premium a worthy competitor, even amongst higher-priced fitness watches. It’s backed by the Zepp platform and sports a 1.32-inch AMOLED display that users love. It’s specifically designed with runners in mind, sporting a durable yet lightweight housing, GPS tracking, and features like structured training presets that draw on a wide range of health metrics. The Prime Day price drop is also available in all three of the Active 3 Premium’s color options, including the Aero White, Apex Silver, and Atlas Blue.
✅Recommended if: you’re looking for one of the best Amazfit smartwatches out there, but you don’t want to spend more than $150; you like a medium-sized watch face of around 1.3 inches, and you’d prefer a vibrant AMOLED display; you want a watch with a wide range of workout modes and health sensors, GPS, and a battery life suitable for longer outdoor excursions.
❌Skip this deal if: you need a watch with dual-band GPS for hyper-accurate readings; you prefer a smartwatch with an actual crown; you’d rather upgrade to the Active Max for up to 25-day battery life and a larger screen.
The Amazfit Active 3 Premium is packed with features that make it feel like a true premium smartwatch, but without the hefty price tag. From health monitoring and training programs to cycle tracking, sleep monitoring, and stress readings, it’s a user-friendly pick for runners at any level. I also like the Zepp App platform, which makes it easy to sift through the many features and data points, while also offering a thorough analysis of a range of health and training factors.
Where it falls a little short is in its exclusion of dual-band GPS. However, those who find that to be a dealbreaker should probably consider upgrading to the Active Max anyway.
