The Amazfit Balance gets new features
Zepp Health will bring new and powerful software features to some very affordable smartwatches, including models we have already reviewed. These will add some genuinely relevant features.
Zepp Health has commented on upcoming updates for a wide range of Amazfit smartwatches. Specifically, the manufacturer is providing both an overview of updates that have already been released and a roadmap for upcoming updates. Even somewhat older wearables, such as the Amazfit Balance will receive new features. BioCharge support is scheduled to arrive this month, along with support for the Helio Strap and integration for TrainingPeaks and Intervals.icu. Stryd support is also planned.
The Amazfit T-Rex 3 is also set to receive new features, although Zepp Health has not yet specified them in detail. The Active 3 Premium is expected to receive a workout calendar, among other features, later this month. Additional major updates are planned for the entire lineup, so to speak. The update to Zepp OS 6 is set to arrive this month, while Zepp Flow will receive new features. Among other things, this should enable more or smarter responses to questions about Launcher 2.0. Additional training features are also planned, with Zepp Health focusing in particular on analysis. Changes or new additions will include the display or calculation of exhaustion levels and lactate threshold, while current information also indicates that customers will receive more workout options. It is not yet clear exactly when the new features will be rolled out.
I have been active as a journalist for over 10 years, most of it in the field of technology. I worked for Tom’s Hardware and ComputerBase, among others, and have been working for Notebookcheck since 2017. My current focus is particularly on mini PCs and single-board computers such as the Raspberry Pi – so in other words, compact systems with a lot of potential. In addition, I have a soft spot for all kinds of wearables, especially smartwatches. My main profession is as a laboratory engineer, which is why neither scientific contexts nor the interpretation of complex measurements are foreign to me.

My fascination for technology goes back a long way to the Pentium II era. Modding, overclocking and treasuring computer hardware has since become an integral part of my life. As a student, I further developed a keen interest in mobile technologies that can make the stressful college life so much easier. After I fell in love with the creation of digital content while working in a marketing position, I now scour the web to bring you the most exciting topics in the world of tech. Outside the office, I’m particularly passionate about motorsports and mountain biking.
