Hey everyone, quick question about the Amazfit Balance 2 & Zepp app.

When I start a Strength Workout and do push-ups, the watch doesn’t auto-count reps. After every set I have to manually enter the rep count, and later in the Zepp app I also have to manually change the exercise name to “Basic push-up.”

I thought the watch was supposed to automatically detect at least some exercises/reps during strength training. Am I missing a setting, or is this just how it works currently?

Thanks!

Got my Balance 2 like 3 days ago and I was on firmware 3.46.0.1 at first. I did some testing before updating and the HR readings seemed pretty normal/accurate from what I could tell.

Today I updated to 3.46.2.1 and during a walking workout the HR readings started acting weird. Same snug fit as before, but it kept showing 125-130+ bpm while just walking, which is for sure higher than normal for me (usually around 110-115). At one point it showed 135 and then suddenly dropped to 102-103 within seconds.

Resting heart rate also seems way off now, showing around 90 when before it was normally around 60. The readings honestly don’t feel correct at all.

I’m not even sure if this is actually caused by the firmware update or if it was already happening before and I just didn’t notice, but it definitely seemed better before updating. Anyone else experienced this on the Balance 2?

I can see my total calories burned (resting + activity) in the Zepp app, but on the watch ( Balance 2 ) itself I only see activity calories for the day.

Is there any setting or watch face that can display total calories burned instead? Anyone found a workaround for this?

I’m leaning toward the Amazfit Balance 2, but I’m not sure if I’m missing something with the newer Active 3 Premium since it just came out this year.

The Balance 2 still seems more premium overall to me - bigger strap, dual-band GPS, potentially better accuracy, 10 ATM, and I honestly prefer the design too. Both also have continuous heart rate monitoring, right?

The lactate threshold feature on the Active 3 Premium also isn’t really something I care about, so I’m not sure what the actual advantages would be for me.

For people who’ve looked into both, which one would you recommend overall and why?

Hey everyone, what’s the best budget Amazfit right now in 2026 mainly for hiking + running? I’m looking for the best value option, not necessarily the cheapest.

Also curious how Amazfit compares these days to COROS and Garmin for GPS accuracy, battery life, and training features. Is Amazfit actually close enough now for casual/intermediate runners & hikers, or are Garmin/Coros still way ahead?

Last watch I had was the Coros Pace 3, but it felt a bit small for me, so now I’m looking for something around 44/45mm or bigger.

Is the Amazfit Active 3 Premium a good option? Please let me know your thoughts.

Would love to hear what you’re using and what you’d buy today on a budget.

Hey all, looking for a rep similar to the Tissot Desir 28mm: https://www.tissotwatches.com/en-us/T1520102211801.html

Doesn’t have to be exact - anything close in style works (just not Rolex). Haven't seen many reps like this around.

Any TDs with something similar? Appreciate any leads.

Hi everyone,

Has anyone here bought from this DHGate seller?

Preferably looking for women’s automatic watches outside the standard Rolex reps.

Any feedback or alternative recommendations would be appreciated.
