Amazfit Announces Balance 3 and Balance Ultra for Hybrid Athletes

Pairing continuous body‑state monitoring with training‑load metrics to guide recovery.

Overview

  • Amazfit opened pre‑orders in early June for the Balance 3 and Balance Ultra with shipping expected in mid‑June, and reported U.S. prices range roughly from about $360 for the stainless steel Balance 3 to about $600 for the Ultra.
  • Both models feature large 1.5‑inch AMOLED screens rated up to 3,000 nits, 10ATM water resistance for recreational diving, and what the company says is 64GB of onboard storage for offline maps and media.
  • Amazfit quotes multi‑week battery life driven by its HybridCharge system, with the Balance 3 rated for about 21 days and the Balance Ultra rated up to about 30 days depending on use.
  • The watches use the Hybrid Training System that combines BioCharge, LifeLoad and Training Load into a single HybridCharge metric to merge 24/7 health sensing (heart rate, SpO2, skin temperature, stress) with structured training guidance and HYROX training plans.
  • Amazfit positions the Balance series as a rival to premium multisport watches by adding a titanium‑bezel, larger battery and extra button on the Ultra, but all performance and sensor accuracy claims are company‑reported and await independent testing.
