Amazfit Balance 3 Smartwatch Lands With 21-Day Battery and 3,000-Nit Screen

The Amazfit Balance 3 is Amazfit's new mid-range training watch, and it lands with a much brighter screen, a far longer battery, and a sharper focus on hybrid fitness. Released in early June 2026, the Amazfit Balance 3 starts at $369.99 and sits below the titanium Balance Ultra in the same family.

What is new
The Balance 3 moves to a 51.4 mm case with extra physical buttons for easier control during a workout. Amazfit pairs that with upgraded sensors and training software aimed at runners, gym-goers, and hybrid athletes who mix the two.

The display
A 1.5-inch AMOLED screen reaches up to 3,000 nits of peak brightness and sits under sapphire crystal glass. That combination keeps the Amazfit Balance 3 readable in direct sun and adds scratch protection for outdoor sessions, while 10ATM water resistance covers swims.

Battery life
A 658 mAh battery is rated for up to 21 days of typical use, dropping to about 7 days with the always-on display switched on. That puts it well ahead of most smartwatches that need a charge every day or two.

Built for HYROX and hybrid training
The watch carries more than 180 sports modes, including HYROX-specific plans, transition simulations, and race-pace guidance. Amazfit's HybridCharge, LifeLoad, and BioCharge tools read training load and recovery to suggest when to push hard and when to ease off.

Health and navigation
Health tracking runs on the BioTracker 6.0 sensor, backed by separate sensors for motion, ambient light, temperature, and altitude. Dual-band GPS, offline maps, route planning, and auto rerouting support long runs and trails without a phone in your pocket.

How it fits the range
The Balance 3 sits in the middle of Amazfit's training lineup, above the everyday GTR and Active models and below the rugged T-Rex and titanium Balance Ultra. That places it as the pick for serious amateur athletes who want flagship-level battery and brightness without paying a flagship price.

Storage and price
64 GB of onboard storage holds offline music and downloaded map packs, so you can leave the phone behind on a run. The Amazfit Balance 3 costs $369.99 in stainless steel, with the titanium Balance Ultra following at $449.99, both sold through Amazfit.

Should you upgrade
For owners of an older Balance or a rival mid-range watch, the brighter screen, longer battery, and HYROX tools make the Amazfit Balance 3 a clear step forward. Casual users who only track steps and sleep may not need the extra training depth.

Style your Amazfit Balance 3 with a Komodoty band
A training watch this capable deserves a strap that works for daily wear as well as the gym, and the Amazfit Balance 3 takes a standard 22 mm quick-release band. Komodoty makes 22 mm universal smartwatch bands in hard-wearing materials with secure spring-bar fittings, so swapping looks takes seconds.
