Which charger for Amazfit Bip 6? Spare magnetic cable

For the Amazfit Bip 6 you need a magnetic dock on a USB cable. You get one in the box, and you can buy a spare as a replacement listed for the Bip 6 (model A2435).

The most popular choice is a set of two Ermorgen chargers with a USB-C plug. You keep one at home and take the other to work or on a trip. If you lost the original dock, a single cable is enough.

Replacements differ mainly in the plug (USB-A or USB-C), the cable length and the number of pieces in the set. The watch does not need a special power adapter, so the choice comes down to what you have at home.

How the Bip 6 charges and what it means in practice

According to Amazfit, the battery is 270 mAh (this is the rated value). The theoretical charging time is about 2 hours, and the watch runs for up to two weeks. Some stores list a different capacity, but we rely on the manufacturer's data.

In practice, this means you plug the watch in roughly twice a month. The most convenient time is in the evening at your desk or while watching a movie. You don't have to remember to charge it every night.

The watch snaps onto the magnetic dock, so there is no port that could wear out. When the cable frays or gets lost on a trip, you replace only the charger, not the whole watch.

Fun fact: The Bip 6 charges in about 2 hours and runs for up to two weeks, so you reach for the charger roughly twice a month (Amazfit data).

Below we have collected replacements whose listings mention the Bip 6. We chose them based on whether the seller names this model and whether they are popular in their category. Not every one is available in every market.

Recommended chargers for Amazfit Bip 6

USB-A or USB-C and what to plug the cable into

Replacement chargers come in two versions: with a USB-A plug and with a USB-C plug. Neither is the better choice; what matters is matching the power adapter or port you already have.

If you have an old USB-A power adapter lying in a drawer, go for the USB-A version, for example from MoKo. If you use newer power adapters or a laptop with USB-C, the Ermorgen set or the magnetic USB-C charger will be more convenient.

The watch charges at low power, so any USB port or a regular USB power adapter is enough. You don't need to look for a fast charger. A computer port, a power bank or the adapter from your phone will do the same job.

When buying, pay attention to two things:

• whether the listing mentions Bip 6 or model A2435,
• whether the cable is a length that suits your desk or car.

If you have several Amazfit watches at home, consider the Simpeak set. The description states that the two 1 m cables also fit the GTR 4 and GTS 4. This is the seller's claim, so read the listing carefully before buying.

Does the same charger fit the Active 2

The replacements in this article mention both Bip 6 and Active 2 in their descriptions. According to the sellers, it is the same charger. Amazfit does not confirm this, so treat it as a claim made by the sellers.

If you have both watches, you can buy one set for two devices. A set of two cables is practical here, because each watch gets its own dock.

Fun fact: According to the sellers, the same charger fits the Amazfit Active 2, so one spare can serve both watches (listing descriptions).

If you want to be sure, choose a listing where Bip 6 is mentioned at the start of the description, as with Kissmart. The magnet is meant to hold the cable against the watch while charging, so after connecting it, check that charging has started.
