Amazfit V1tal wants to track your meals without the hassle
Amazfit’s V1tal concept could totally change how we track what we eat. Instead of having to manually enter calories or scan barcodes, this device just uses a camera to log your meals automatically.
CES 2025 has just closed its doors for another year, and while there were plenty of cool gadgets, a few really stood out as crazy or wacky. One of those was the Amazfit V1tal, a concept that could actually make food logging a lot easier. Expected to launch sometime in Q1 or Q2 of 2025, it’s set to be available for purchase pretty quickly after that, unlike many other CES prototypes that can take years to hit the market.
What is the Amazfit V1tal?
As originally reported by Digital Trends, the V1tal was shown off during a behind-the-scenes demo at CES. It’s still a concept, but what they saw makes it clear that this device could be useful to a lot of people.
The gist of it is – instead of entering all the ingredients or scanning barcodes like we do with apps like MyFitnessPal, the V1tal uses a camera to look at your plate and record everything while you eat. After you’re done, the device logs the meal in the Zepp app, including all the details like calories and macronutrients. Everything is done automatically.
It’s a simple process that could save you a ton of time compared to the usual manual food tracking methods.




Because its an AI camera – the V1tal isn’t just about logging calories. It also tracks your eating behavior, such as how fast you’re eating or if you’re skipping parts of the meal (like veggies). It then gives you helpful tips for improving your habits, like slowing down or eating more balanced meals. For anyone trying to lose weight or just eat healthier, this could be a very helpful.
What’s also cool is that the V1tal will sync with Zepp Health’s other devices, like their smartwatches. So instead of managing multiple apps or devices, you can track everything in one place. Which means you’ll get activity and sleep info from the device on your wrist and calorie intake data from V1tal.
Not just for food logging
While food tracking is the main feature, Zepp Health seems to have bigger plans for the gadget. The device runs on Zepp OS, which means it can do more than just record meals. It can show notifications, set timers, and even manage to-do lists. There’s talk that the V1tal could eventually let you make purchases with voice commands, which would put it in competition with AI devices like the Humane AI Pin or Rabbit R1.
Of course, the idea of recording your meals might raise some privacy concerns, but the benefits could outweigh that, especially if you’re serious about tracking your health or trying to stick to a nutrition plan.
A bigger push from Zepp Health into health tech
Zepp Health has recently updated its food logging feature in the Amazfit smartphone app. Still in Beta, we were under the impression this was designed for smartwatches. But the company clearly has bolder ambitions. While the app update potentially makes food tracking a bit less of a hassle, the V1tal could take things a step further by doing all the work for you, capturing meals in real time and offering deeper insights into your eating habits.

The V1tal is definitely something I haven’t seen before. I’ve tried a few food logging apps over the years, but none of them ever stuck. Entering every little thing you eat or scanning barcodes is just too much of a hassle. I’m not usually keen on the idea of something recording me while I eat, but if this AI camera actually works as promised, I might give it a shot. It’s definitely odd, that’s for sure!
