Amazfit to Launch Two New Models of 'Cheetah 2' Series GPS Running Watches in May

Zepp Health Corporation, a global company providing smart wearable devices in over 90 countries, will launch the new Amazfit brand GPS running watch 'Amazfit Cheetah 2 Pro' on Thursday, May 21, 2026, and the 'Amazfit Cheetah 2 Ultra' on Friday, May 29, 2026, to strengthen its presence in the running sector within the Japanese market (pre-orders for the Amazfit Cheetah 2 Ultra begin on Thursday, May 21). Concurrently, the company is initiating a full-scale enhancement of the runner experience connecting devices, communities, and physical stores by supporting automatic running log integration with 'Runtrip', one of Japan's largest running communities, and starting product handling at the specialized running and track and field store 'SteP SPORTS'.

In the running watch market, where higher functionality and rising prices occur simultaneously, many runners feel a high barrier to replacing or purchasing new devices. The Amazfit Cheetah 2 series aims to present an accessible price point while providing the necessary features, durability, and battery performance, targeting everyone from race-oriented road runners to long trail runners in this environment. Furthermore, by combining the utilization of running logs through Runtrip integration with the provision of try-on and consultation opportunities at SteP SPORTS, the company proposes a 'sustainable' running environment traversing online and offline for Japanese runners.
