Amazfit Balance 2 is the battery pick for people who want a full smartwatch rather than a basic tracker. Amazfit's US store sells it for $299.99 and lists up to 21 days of battery life, 21 times the 24 hours Apple lists for Series 12. It has a 1.5-inch AMOLED display at 2,000 nits under sapphire glass, 10 ATM water resistance, 180+ sports modes, smart strength training and official HYROX race and training modes. Free offline maps include ski resort maps and downloadable maps for 40,000 golf courses. HybridCharge combines BioCharge, LifeLoad and Training Load to guide daily training, and Amazfit states there are no subscription fees for workout and recovery data in the Zepp App. The trade-offs are a smaller app catalog than Wear OS or watchOS and no flashlight; the Balance 3 at $369.99 adds a brighter screen and a flashlight. We compared documented features and published prices only.
