Amazfit Active Max | 1.5-inch AMOLED Display | 25-Day Battery | Offline Maps and GPS | Bluetooth Calls
A big, bright running companion that lasts weeks between top-ups for athletes on Kenyan roads and trails.
Condition: New
Note: price and availability are subject to change without prior notice
Amazfit Active Max is available at Mascom International for KSh 25,000, brand new and sealed, with a 1.5-inch AMOLED screen, up to 25 days of battery life and onboard offline maps. Made by Amazfit, the watch packs 4GB of storage for maps and music, Bluetooth calling through a built-in speaker and microphone, and a 5 ATM water rating. The Amazfit Active Max uses an aluminium alloy case that weighs 39.5g without its strap, so the wide face never feels heavy on the wrist. You can see and try it at our store in the Old Mutual Building on Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Built for runners, hikers, cyclists and busy professionals across Kenya, the Amazfit Active Max solves a problem most fitness watch owners know well: a charger that has to travel everywhere. A field engineer working between Nairobi and Eldoret, or NGO field staff posted upcountry, can go weeks without plugging in, which matters when KPLC power cuts hit at night. The 3,000-nit panel stays readable under the Mombasa midday sun, and the barometric altimeter logs climbs on Ngong Hills or Mount Kenya trails. Download routes before you leave, then follow turn-by-turn directions even where Safaricom signal fades.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that sell grey-market watches with no local backing, Mascom International supplies the Amazfit Active Max sealed, with a 12-month warranty handled at our Nairobi CBD service desk. At Mascom International, we're seeing more runners trade up from basic fitness bands to this watch because the larger screen makes maps and workout data easy to read mid-stride. Customers across Nairobi tell us battery life is the deciding factor. Visit us on Kimathi Street to compare it side by side with the Amazfit Active 3 Premium, or order the Amazfit Active Max on WhatsApp for pay-on-arrival delivery anywhere in Kenya.
Common Questions About the Amazfit Active Max
How much is the Amazfit Active Max in Kenya?
The Amazfit Active Max costs KSh 25,000 brand new and sealed at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD. That price includes the 12-month warranty, the charging cable and pay-on-arrival delivery to any of Kenya's 47 counties. It sits KSh 1,000 above the Amazfit Active 3 Premium at KSh 24,000 and KSh 4,000 above the Amazfit Active 2 Premium at KSh 21,000. You pay by cash, card or M-Pesa when the watch reaches you, so ordering from upcountry carries no risk.
Should I buy the Amazfit Active Max or the Amazfit Active 3 Premium?
Pick the Amazfit Active Max for battery life and screen size, and the Amazfit Active 3 Premium for sapphire glass and automatic rerouting. The Amazfit Active Max claims up to 25 days and 64 hours of GPS on a 1.5-inch display. The Amazfit Active 3 Premium claims up to 12 days and 24 hours of GPS on a 1.32-inch screen with a stainless steel frame. Long-distance hikers and people who hate charging should take the Amazfit Active Max; runners with slimmer wrists will prefer the smaller watch.
How long does the Amazfit Active Max battery last on one charge?
Amazfit rates the Amazfit Active Max at up to 25 days of typical use and up to 64 hours of continuous GPS, thanks to its 658mAh cell. Heavy GPS training, the always-on display and frequent calls bring that figure down. Reviewers report about a week between charges with regular GPS workouts, which is still far longer than most watches with a screen this size. A full recharge takes about two hours, so a Sunday-evening top-up covers most training weeks.
Does the Amazfit Active Max work on Kenyan networks and in local conditions?
The Amazfit Active Max works with any Kenyan network because it links to your phone over Bluetooth rather than using its own SIM card. Calls, WhatsApp alerts and SMS from Safaricom, Airtel Kenya or Telkom lines appear on the wrist while the phone is in range. The 5 ATM rating handles rain, sweat and pool swimming. Charging runs over USB, so a power bank keeps it going through KPLC blackouts, and the long battery means you rarely need one.
Can I take calls and make payments with the Amazfit Active Max?
Yes, the Amazfit Active Max takes Bluetooth calls through its built-in speaker and microphone while your phone stays nearby in a bag or pocket. Tap-to-pay runs through Zepp Pay over NFC, but support depends on your bank and country, and Kenyan bank cards may not be covered. Treat contactless payment as a bonus rather than a reason to buy. For everyday spending, M-Pesa on your phone remains the faster option at any Lipa na M-Pesa till in Kenya.
Is the Amazfit Active Max good for hiking and offline navigation?
The Amazfit Active Max suits hikers well because it stores offline maps with turn-by-turn directions and street names in its 4GB memory. Import a route through the Zepp app at home, and the watch guides you even where mobile data drops out, from the Aberdares to Hell's Gate. The barometric altimeter tracks ascent on hill climbs and stair sessions. One limit worth knowing: the watch does not reroute automatically after a wrong turn, so glance at the map at junctions.
Who should buy the Amazfit Active Max and who should skip it?
The Amazfit Active Max suits runners, hikers, cyclists and travelling professionals who want a big screen and weeks of battery for KSh 25,000. Skip it if you have small wrists, because the 48.5mm case is large; the Amazfit Active 3 Premium at 45mm fits better. Athletes training strictly by heart-rate zone should also look elsewhere, as reviewers found the optical sensor under-reads during hard efforts and there is no ANT+ chest-strap support. Casual step counters will find the Amazfit Bip 6 at KSh 14,000 enough.
Does the Amazfit Active Max play music without a phone?
Yes, the Amazfit Active Max stores music and podcasts in its 4GB memory, and Amazfit quotes room for up to 100 hours of audio. Pair Bluetooth earbuds and you can leave the phone at home for a morning run along Ngong Road or a gym session in Kilimani. Load files through the Zepp app before you head out. Playing audio from the watch uses more battery than plain tracking, so expect fewer days per charge during heavy listening weeks.
Technical Specifications
Display and Screen
- 1.5-inch AMOLED touchscreen — AMOLED pixels light themselves, so maps, routes and workout numbers show in large, clear text with deep blacks.
- 480 x 480 pixel resolution — sharp lettering and crisp map lines, so street names stay legible at a quick glance mid-run.
- Up to 3,000 nits peak brightness — nits measure screen brightness, and this level keeps the face readable in direct, harsh sunshine.
- Strengthened glass lens — a hardened cover that resists everyday scuffs; it is not sapphire, so a screen protector helps on rough trails.
- Always-on display option — keeps the time and key stats visible without lifting the wrist, at the cost of fewer days per charge.
Health and Fitness Sensors
- BioTracker PPG optical heart-rate sensor — PPG shines light into the skin to read blood flow and track your pulse day and night.
- Blood-oxygen (SpO2) monitoring — measures how much oxygen your blood carries, useful for checking sleep quality and adjusting to altitude.
- Heart rate variability (HRV) tracking — reads the tiny gaps between heartbeats, which reveal recovery and stress after hard training days.
- Skin temperature sensor — logs overnight changes that can flag illness, fatigue or shifts in your body's normal rhythm early on.
- Barometric altimeter — reads air pressure to record elevation gain on climbs, stairs and trail runs more reliably than satellite data alone.
Battery and Charging
- 658mAh battery — a large cell for a wrist device, which explains the multi-week runtime between charges.
- Up to 25 days of typical use — Amazfit's claimed figure for everyday tracking, notifications and overnight sleep monitoring combined.
- Up to 64 hours of continuous GPS — enough to record several ultramarathons, or weeks of daily one-hour runs, before recharging.
- About 2 hours for a full charge — plug it in at bedtime or during a long meeting and it is ready again.
- USB charging cable — draws power from any phone adapter, laptop port or power bank, so no special charger is needed.
Connectivity and Navigation
- Single-frequency GNSS satellite positioning — GNSS covers GPS and similar systems, tracking pace, distance and routes without carrying your phone.
- 4GB onboard storage — holds downloaded offline maps plus up to 100 hours of music or podcasts for phone-free workouts.
- Offline maps with turn-by-turn directions and street names — navigation that works with no mobile data, though rerouting is not automatic.
- Bluetooth calling with built-in speaker and microphone — answer and talk on calls from the wrist while the phone stays in a bag.
- NFC with Zepp Pay — NFC is short-range wireless used for tap-to-pay, working where your bank and country are supported.
Build and Durability
- Aluminium alloy case and bezel — light metal that keeps the large watch comfortable for all-day and overnight wear.
- 48.5 x 48.5 x 12.2mm case — a wide body best suited to medium and large wrists rather than slim ones.
- 39.5g without the strap — light for a watch with a face this size, so it does not drag during runs.
- 5 ATM water resistance — rated to pressure equal to 50 metres of water, so rain, showers, sweat and pool swimming are fine.
- Polymer back plate — the hard plastic underside sits against the skin and houses the heart-rate and health sensors.
