Running~$450Amazfit
Cheetah 2 Pro is Amazfit's runner's watch, with a grade 5 titanium case, sapphire glass, dual-band GPS and a red-and-white flashlight. Plans import from TrainingPeaks, Runna and Intervals.icu, and the watch tracks lactate threshold, running power and finish-time prediction. Amazfit rates it at 20 days of typical use and 31 hours of dual-band GPS; the pricier Cheetah 2 Ultra adds preloaded full-color contour maps.

maker's list price, not a live price
Best for: Marathon and half-marathon runners who follow structured plans and want titanium and dual-band GPS.
The ring’s outer track is the headline claim; the inner two are the always-on and GPS figures as a share of it. An empty track means Amazfit does not publish that figure. Why the figures differ
Amazfit cites no regulator clearance for a health feature on this model. Its heart-rate, sleep and blood-oxygen readings are wellness features.
A clearance says what a feature is allowed to claim, not that it replaces a doctor. Cleared versus wellness features
The two lists above are drawn from the maker’s own pages and prices, not from owner reports. Where owner discussion has been read it appears in its own section below, so the two are never mistaken for each other.
From what 5 owners of the Amazfit Cheetah 2 Pro reported between July and August 2026. Earlier generations are not counted.
Owners running with the Cheetah 2 Pro praise the fundamentals: for one owner the recorded route, total distance and average pace matched an Apple Watch Ultra 3 on the same runs, and another moved to it from a heavier T-Rex 3 for long runs, keeping the T-Rex for rougher days. The flashlight also gets used, with one owner relying on it for an early-morning 10k.
The complaint that comes up is instant pace. Two owners describe the live pace figure or the pace alerts disagreeing with how fast they were actually running, even though the averages afterwards were right, and one tried a factory reset without fixing it. An owner who tested it against reference devices found wrist heart rate good but elevation gain consistently high, with the barometer taking a while to settle at the start.
It suits runners who care most about an accurate record of the run afterwards and want a light titanium watch. If you train by watching live pace on short intervals, the instant-pace reports are worth weighing.
Owners say the average pace and distance match other watches well, but the instant pace can lag or swing for stretches on steady runs. One owner saw it read between 45 seconds and 1:45 per km slow at times, and a factory reset did not change it.
