The newest Amazfit watch represents the company’s latest attempt to stake a claim in the fitness tracking arena. With support for more than 170 workout modes, downloadable maps, enhanced health monitoring, and a 1.5-inch display protected by sapphire glass, the Balance 2 is positioned as a robust workout companion. Though not available at launch, Amazfit will also be introducing BioCharge, a new daily score that combines users’ activity, stress, and recovery data to provide a clearer picture of overall readiness.
In the meantime, the watch features over 40,000 downloadable golf course maps, advanced swing and score tracking, and dedicated scuba and freediving support thanks to its 10 ATM water resistance.
