The Active Max is the Active line scaled up for endurance. A 658mAh cell in a 48.5mm aluminium case is rated for 25 days of typical use and 64 hours of continuous GPS — numbers that embarrass watches three times the price — behind a 1.5-inch, 3,000-nit AMOLED. 4GB of storage holds offline maps with contour detail plus music and podcasts. A July 2026 update added HybridCharge, which folds BioCharge, training load, and daily life stress into one capacity score, and the health stack matches the Active 2’s, skin temperature included. Two things keep the price down: GPS is single-band, which reviewers single out as its weak point, and you get aluminium and strengthened glass where the same-money Active 3 Premium has stainless steel and sapphire.
