This wearable was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.notebookcheck.net\/Amazfit-releases-new-premium-Active-2-Square-smartwatch-globally.1038052.0.html\" target=\"_self\" class=\"internal-link\" rel=\"noopener\">released in June 2025<\/a> as an alternative to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.notebookcheck.net\/Amazfit-Active-2-Affordable-AMOLED-smartwatch-launches-as-sub-100-alternative-to-Apple-and-Galaxy-watches.942866.0.html\" target=\"_self\" class=\"internal-link\" rel=\"noopener\">Active 2 (Round)<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.notebookcheck.net\/Amazfit-Active-2-Premium-smartwatch-now-available-in-Europe.1019406.0.html\" target=\"_self\" class=\"internal-link\" rel=\"noopener\">Active 2 (Round &#8211; Premium Version)<\/a>.<br \/>&#13;<\/p>\n<p class=\"bodytext\">The software version 3.5.10.3 release brings several new features and improvements to the Active 2 (Square). Users gain advanced running dynamics with two new form related metrics: Ground Contact Time and Vertical Oscillation. There is a new button-activated screenshot functionality, with users capturing the display by pressing the two buttons simultaneously. The release also adds three new workout modes: HIIT, HYROX training, and ultra-marathon.<br \/>&#13;<\/p>\n<p class=\"bodytext\">On top of this, there are new reminders linked to the jump rope activity, and in-workout controls like raise wrist to unlock and support for direct button response.
