Amazfit Balance Smart Watch 46mm with Fitness Tracker, Body Composition & Health Analysis, Sleep Recovery, GPS, Amazon Alexa Built-in, Bluetooth Calling, Fitness Watch for Android iPhone, Sunset Grey

What an amazing smartwatch I have had it now almost 2 years and it never leaves my arm it's very accurate and the Amoled screen brightness is great with beautiful colors and the Bluetooth connectivity is excellent it has never disconnected from my phone yet. It's the best value for money. It tracks my heart rate and sleep perfectly. I am so happy with my amazfit Balance watch that I will now be ordering the new version Balance 2 I am just waiting for the price to go down a little but I can't wait to get my hands on the Balance 2 and do a review on it. Even after 2 years of constant use the battery still easily lasts 5 to 6 days with all the battery draining features turned on. Thank you Amazfit for providing excellent smart watches at an affordable price.

After my Pebble 2 SE started to wear down I switched over to the Amazfit Bip because at the time it was the only comparable smartwatch with similar battery life. Since then I upgraded to the GTS2e and now to the Balance. Needless to say I haven't found a reason to move away from Amazfit as I have always been happy with their watches. The most important feature for me is the battery life, I hate having one more thing to worry about charging if I travel or am away from a power source most of the day. Though I have only been using the Balance for a few days, based on my experience so far I'm pretty confident you could go at least 7 days without needing a charge so long as you don't use the always on display or excessive GPS tracking. I have also enjoyed Amazfit's built in watch apps, they provide everything I need in a watch; notifications, the ability to take calls/respond to texts, a timer, alarm, and a find my mobile function that makes your phone ring when you misplace it. The Balance also introduces an app store where additional apps can be downloaded. Its fairly limited compared to what is offered by Apple or Google, but its nice to have the option. The health tracking is just an added bonus in my book. As for the accuracy, I think it is accurate enough for what it is and can give you a good general sense of where your health metrics are at. It likely isn't as accurate as higher end fitness focused watches, but considering the cost, battery life, and user experience features it includes that are more akin to a traditional smart watch I think its a worthy compromise. The recent update to Zepp OS 3.5 has added its own built in AI assistant, Zepp Flow. It's nothing ground breaking, but it is nice to have and can make doing things like setting a timer, alarm, or starting a workout as easy as asking the watch to do it for you. It also includes Amazon Alexa which can be useful for controlling other smart home devices. Physically its very comfortable to wear, being thin and lightweight. I wear it all day and at night when sleeping without any issues whatsoever. The screen is also very vibrant and can get surprisingly bright which makes it easy to see even in direct sunlight. The included silicone watch strap is also comfortable and has a nice added feature. In the past I have had issues with silicone bands as the keeper that prevents the excess band from flopping around would wear down and allow the band to slip out, requiring me to constantly adjust it and slip it back in. The keeper on the included band has a small notch in it that allows it to plug into the last hole on the band so this should prevent it from slipping out in the future. Overall I think its a great watch for anyone that is looking for something in-between a dedicated fitness device and smart watch, it provides the best of both worlds at a reasonable price.

I have an Amazfit T-Rex2 watch. The band broke on it, after having been replaced not even one year earlier. Anybody who has one of these knows how difficult the bands are to replace. I decided not to try that again, and after some searching, decided to purchase an Amazfit Balance. So far I am very happy with this purchase. The watch is stylish and has many improvements over the T-Rex 2, not the least being a band that is simple to replace. It is easy to navigate the various screens, and there are more features. The watch is very functional, and intuitive. There are plenty of watch faces. I like the exercise tracking, the gps and compass. For the money this seems to be a good quality and good performing watch. If you are seeking a new smart watch that is affordable, stylish and functional this might be the watch for you.

I waited a full year before writing this review to ensure it reflects long-term, real-world use of the Amazfit Balance. I primarily wanted a watch for activity tracking, heart rate monitoring, and basic phone notifications—not for music, calls, or texting. Previously, I used both Fitbit and Garmin devices. Build & Setup: The watch is solidly built and looks great—definitely comparable to much more expensive options like Garmin. Battery life is excellent. It paired easily with my iPhone, and setup was smooth. App Experience: The Zepp app is functional but clunky. I don’t recommend paying for the subscription services—they mostly provide vague, AI-generated insights that aren’t useful. Also, skip the paid watch faces. The WFAmazfit app offers a ton of great free options. Customization: The included fabric band wasn’t for me, but I easily swapped it out for third-party bands. Having color options is a nice bonus. Activity Tracking: I use this mainly for outdoor cycling, kayaking, and hiking. It syncs well with Strava, which has been my go-to platform for years. Once paired, workouts upload to Strava quickly and reliably. Heart Rate Monitor & Device Integration: This spring, I added a Garmin 1050 cycling computer and wanted to use the Amazfit as a heart rate monitor. Unfortunately, the integration is a bit awkward—you must enable HRM broadcast and start an activity on the watch to transmit data. This caused activity duplication in Strava, so I had to unlink Amazfit from Strava for cycling and will re-link it for other activities like hiking or kayaking. Not ideal. Final Thoughts: After a year of regular use, I confidently recommend the Amazfit Balance if you’re looking for a durable, budget-friendly fitness tracker with excellent battery life. Notifications work well, fitness tracking is accurate, and the variety of free watch faces is a nice touch. The only real downsides: • The Zepp app is underwhelming. • Heart rate monitor pairing with third-party devices like Garmin is clunky. If Amazfit improves those areas, this could easily be a 5-star product.

I had the Amazfit GTR 3 for 3 years prior to purchasing this Amazfit Balance and never had any issues with that watch, so figured I would upgrade to this one. I have had this smart watch for 7 days and have noticed a huge upgrade in the performance of the health tracking sensors over the GTR 3. All of the health metrics are more accurate and more reliable and there are more on this watch compared to the GTR 3. I really like the addition of the body composition detection (but strongly recommend getting a mat to give a full body scan). I also like the addition of the skin temperature sensor which is absolutely spot on as it can give an indication of your general health and if you are running the risk of heat exhaustion or hypothermia, it also tracks your sleeping temperature and gives feedback of your overall sleep quality along with the standard sleep cycle tracking, oxygen levels, sleep apnea or hyponea tracking. The heart sensor is more accurate and offers continuous heart rate tracking while exercising, resting heart rate tracking, and heart rate variability while sleeping to give a better indication of overall heart health. Now this watch also includes a readiness score based on 2 metrics, physical recovery and mental recovery based on physical activity from the day before and how well you slept overnight. There are so many features on this watch that I would literally have to right a novel to explain them all. I do like the that I can answer and make phone calls directly from the watch (via Bluetooth) and the fact that there is several ways to reply to text messages (that now show recieved images). You can do a quick response, use the built-in keyboard, or use the Zepp Flow assistant to type your speech to text, and it's very accurate at converting your speech to text. I have also found out that Amazfit is working on a blood pressure algorithm for this watch that will be brought out shortly. The GPS tracking is absolutely spot on in my tests and acquires a lock very fast. I appreciate the quality of this watch in both fit and finish with its large amoled display that has a maximum brightness of 1500 nits, easy to see even in direct sunlight (similar brightness to the Google Pixel 8 phone that I use). I honestly haven't seen a better smartwatch for the price made by anyone else, and the fact that it runs on Android and iOS only makes it more versatile. Before I finish the battery life is exceptional, I am using roughly 6% battery per day of moderate usage with all sensors on and sleep tracking enabled, the only thing I don't use is the always on display as my watch is normally covered by my sleeve so I am getting around 16 days before I have to recharge the watch. The only thing I would recommend anyone who gets this watch to do is put a screen protector on it because it can scratch quite easily. Great smartwatch, great software, great battery life, and really useful updates put out by Amazfit. Thanks Amazon for carrying this product.

Excellent smart watch. Outstanding built quality and feels very satisfied when wearing. Looks really great in wrist. Battery time is extraordinary good. Perfect smart watch.

Very responsive and beautiful watch. Battery lasts about 10 days with normal usage, some sports and some walking. Good record of my sleeping timings.

Remplace mi galaxy watch 4 classic por este reloj, tiene buena duracion de bateria, la bateria le dura 2 semanas aproximadamente, se pueden responder mensajes a traves de dictado de voz o por teclado asi como se puede realizar llamadas a traves del reloj

Nice looking watch and works well with an external HRM (chest strap). The built-in monitor is as useless as any of the other Xaomi/Zepp products I have tried, but paired to a chest strap this is a fantastic watch. I really wanted something that would do the PAI score -- and at this point that limits you to Amazfit. The built in sensor is fine for mooching around, but on dynamic exercise reads wildly inaccurately. I found the same with the Xaoimi Mi fitness band 7, which I tried before this. Of course, YMMV as these kinds of sensors can work better with different people/skin types. I was pleased to find that they recently added offline map support, which is a nice to have. I use this for mountain hiking/running (and I always have a phone and PLB), so maps weren't really essential, but definitely a nice to have. The screen is perfectly bright for use in sunlight. I like it, subject to the sensor capability caveats.
