Canadian Running Reviews Amazfit Cheetah 2 Pro at $449.99, Citing 31-Hour GPS Battery

$449.99 Amazfit Cheetah 2 Pro won praise from Canadian Running as a marathon-focused GPS watch that extends beyond workout logging into nutrition, recovery and daily planning through the Zepp app.
31 hours of accurate GPS battery life and offline maps stood out for long runs, while the review said the watch tracks advanced metrics including ground contact time, stride length and lactate-threshold pace and heart rate.
Zepp’s nutrition and sleep tools were highlighted as key differentiators, with voice food logging, automatic calorie and macronutrient counts, and recovery suggestions tied to habits such as screen time, alcohol and late workouts.
BioCharge readiness scores, Zepp Coach training plans and extras like payments, to-do lists and a jet-lag manager reinforced the watch’s all-in-one positioning, though the review noted it is heavier and bulkier than some Garmin and Coros rivals.
Rory Linkletter’s 2:06:04 personal best at last month’s Boston Marathon while wearing the Cheetah 2 Pro was cited as real-world validation of its performance focus.
