What’s the Difference?

Amazfit Stratos vs Stratos 2 vs Stratos 3 Features Compared

  • Design


    • Nothing has really changed much in the design with the release of the Stratos 3, its still same stylish and classy appearance of a true premium smartwatch. Although, the Stratos 3 features 4 physical buttons compared to the other two with 3 each.

    Moreover, the JDI manufactured full moon reflective LCD display of the Stratos 3 leaves it with a more pleasing and easy to read display outdoors compared to the transflective LCD of the other two (also easy to read outdoors).

  • Fitness Tracking


    • Each of these three is fitness-focused and well equipped with all standard sensor onboard to track your active life. Any of these three is able to track your VO2 Max., calories, sleep, steps, distance, and inbuilt GPS enables outdoor activity tracking for routes, location and real-time pace.

    But Stratos 3 is a more comprehensive activity tracker than the other two. It features 19 preloaded sport modes compared to 16 on the other two and features 8 FirstBeat algorithmscompared to 4 each on the other two.

  • Battery Life

    • Battery life has also been improved with the release of Stratos 3 as it has a slightly longer battery life than its predecessors. The Stratos 3 tested to last 7 days on regular use will keep you going much longer than the Stratos and Stratos 2 with 5 days battery life on average.

So Which is the Best Choice?

No doubt, all three watches are outstanding with remarkable design and comprehensive fitness trackers with impressively long battery life. But the Stratos 3 with a better display, more fitness tracking features, and longer battery life is clearly a better choice.

Although a bit more expensive, the Stratos 3 gives the best value for money which makes it a great bargain.

Our Pick

The Amazfit Stratos 3 has a sophisticated design, it’s a more comprehensive fitness tracker and has a longer battery life. It’s our preferred choice.
