Pick Amazfit if
- Price is the binding constraint
- You like long battery on a consumer watch
- 24/7 stress index matters to you
Both are consumer-grade daily-wear watches. Amazfit reads 16/27 signals at the lowest price point in this comparison and adds 24/7 stress that Fitbit lacks. Fitbit reads 16/27, adds ECG with AFib screening and works inside Google ecosystem (Pixel Watch, Google Maps, Google Wallet).
If price is the binding constraint, Amazfit gives you most of the daily-health signal stack at a fraction of Fitbit's cost. If you're already in the Google ecosystem or want ECG with AFib screening on the wrist, Fitbit is the better fit. Neither one measures body composition on its own — for body fat and muscle mass you'd pair either with a Withings scale.

Pick both if
For most people it is one or the other. Both are daily-wear devices that track the same core things, heart rate, sleep and activity, so wearing both is redundant. Use the matrix above to pick the one that wins the categories you care about.
Amazfit tracks 16 of the 27 signals I compare, Fitbit tracks 16. The matrix above breaks it down by category, and they often win different categories.
Only if Fitbit wins the categories you actually care about. If you already own Amazfit and it covers your main goal, the upgrade is rarely worth it. The matrix above shows exactly what changes.
From each brand's official spec sheets and support pages, cross-checked against independent reviews like DC Rainmaker and The Quantified Scientist and peer-reviewed accuracy studies. Signal-level edge cases are noted in the matrix, not hidden behind a single check mark.
