#1 Amazfit Cheetah 2 Pro
4.2

Contactless payments were positively described as practical for errands, coffee or post-workout stops without carrying a phone.

Pros: GPS accuracy, battery life

Cons: band quality, smartwatch features

#2 Amazfit Active Max
3.2

Contactless payments were useful but not especially slick, according to the one reviewer who evaluated Zepp Pay.

Pros: battery life, value for money

Cons: companion app quality, heart rate accuracy

#3 Amazfit Balance 3
3.1

Zepp Pay is present, but regional and bank support limits its usefulness. European users may need Curve, and not every German bank is directly supported.

Pros: battery life, brightness

Cons: fit, third-party app support

#4 Amazfit Active 2
3.0

Contactless payments are useful in principle but limited by model, region, or the need to buy the premium version.

Pros: value for money, battery life

Cons: band quality, button controls

#5 Amazfit Active 3 Premium
3.0

Contactless payments are region-dependent: one reviewer says Zepp Pay does not work in the United States, while a European reviewer reports Curve-based payment works smoothly.

Pros: value for money, battery life

Cons: heart rate accuracy, third-party app support

#6 Amazfit Cheetah 2 Ultra
3.0

Contactless payment works quickly after setup, but enrollment and PIN friction make the implementation less convenient.

Pros: battery life, value for money

Cons: reliability

#7 Amazfit Balance 2
2.6

Contactless payment support was a clear caveat, with reviewers noting Zepp Pay is less seamless than Apple Pay and that support varies by region or bank.

Pros: battery life, value for money

Cons: third-party app support, onboard music storage

#8 Amazfit T-Rex Ultra 2
2.5

Contactless-payment evidence was region-dependent: one review liked European NFC support, while others criticized limited or unavailable payment support.

Pros: battery life, value for money

Cons: heart rate accuracy, comfort

#9 Amazfit T-Rex 3
2.1

Contactless payments were a common weak spot due to Curve, regional limits, missing support, or setup failures.

Pros: value for money, mapping and navigation

Cons: heart rate accuracy, recovery insights

#10 Amazfit Bip 5
2.0

Contactless payments are a weakness; reviewers describe the feature as missing rather than merely limited.

Pros: value for money, battery life

Cons: smartwatch features, app ecosystem

#11 Amazfit T-Rex 3 Pro
1.5

Contactless payments are a repeated weakness because Zepp Pay does not work in the United States for one reviewer and drew another dismissive Apple Pay comparison.

Pros: battery life, value for money

Cons: mapping and navigation, user interface

#12 Amazfit Bip 6
1.0

Contactless payment support was consistently treated as absent, making it a clear smartwatch-feature gap.

Pros: value for money, battery life

Cons: voice assistant quality, sleep tracking accuracy

#13 Amazfit GTR Mini
1.0

Contactless payments were a clear miss, with one reviewer explicitly disappointed by the lack of NFC.

Pros: battery life, workout tracking variety

Cons: call handling, smartphone notifications
