Amazfit Balance 2 could land in Europe on June 24 for 300 euros
A listing on Amazon Spain has revealed the likely European launch date and pricing for the Amazfit Balance 2. It points to June 24 as the release day and sets the price at 300 euros.
Amazon Spain listing narrows the launch window
The Balance 2 has already made its debut in China in May, but this new listing suggests it’s finally making its way to other markets. The product page is now live. It is not unusual for Amazon to list products ahead of release, and the timing and pricing line up with expectations.
What makes this more interesting is that June 24 is also the date we’ve been hearing for the launch of the Amazfit Helio Strap. Until now, that strap’s release was mostly guesswork based on vague mentions. The Amazon listing for the Balance 2 strengthens the case that both devices could launch together in Europe, and most likely other regions, on that date.

It is worth noting that nothing official has come out of Zepp Health yet. So this date is not absolutely definite.
Balance 2 XT still in the background
One version that’s still missing in action is the Balance 2 XT. That’s the one with a titanium case and a slightly more premium finish. So far, there’s no word on when or where that might land. So far it hasn’t launched in China, either. Also Zepp Health hasn’t officially acknowledged it yet, but it’s been floating around in early leaks and product certification databases.
If it does show up later, expect it to land at a higher price point than the standard Balance 2. It’s still unclear if it will offer any functional upgrades, or if the changes are limited to build materials and aesthetics.
What to expect from Balance 2 in Europe
The Balance 2 will likely come in at around the same price as the Amazfit T-Rex 3. That puts it at 300 euros, which makes sense given the feature set and positioning.
In terms of differences from the original Balance, the new model . This includes the updated Huangshan 3 chipset, which should make the watch feel snappier in daily use. The display now has sapphire glass protection instead of tempered glass. Zepp Health has also improved the layout of the optical sensors, which should help with exercise tracking. There are also some new software features. Interestingly, Zepp dropped the BIA sensor on this version, possibly to support better water resistance and MIL-STD certification.
