Pickleball and Balance 2 XT

Been a GTR 4 user for 3+ years. GTR 3 before that. Thinking about finally upgrading.

Wanted a GTR 5 but that didn’t happen. Original Balance was meh as an upgrade. Balance 2 is promising but too expensive. Wanted a price/value middle ground and Balance 2 XT appears to hit the “Balance 1.5” sweet spot I’ve been looking for.

Two questions…

(1) Is the Balance 2 XT worth it? Or should I look at one of the Active models? Any gotchas? Really impressed with the GTR 4 durability and don’t want to slide backwards. Golf, cadence and lactate are meaningless to me.

(2) I play pickleball 3+ times a week. What is the “Pickleball 2.0 update” and will it come to the Balance 2 XT? Not currently listed on the Amazfit roadmap;
