• The Amazfit Bip ($79.99) proves you don't have to spend more than $100 for a good smartwatch.
• I've worn it daily for more than a month and primarily use it to keep track of my physical activity and sleep and to receive phone notifications. 
• While it lacks the sleek sophistication of its $200 to $350 counterparts, it still impressed us with its month-long battery life and variety of features you'll use every day. 

Though Apple and Fitbit are probably the first names to come to mind when you think of wearables, Chinese wearables company Huami is quietly giving them a run for their money with its under-$100 Amazfit Bip smartwatch.See the rest of the story at Business Insider
