Balance 2
Which one fits you
Both need much the same wrist — roughly 49–68mm across the flat of the wrist. Neither will fit where the other won't, so decide on thickness, weight and features instead.
The Amazfit Balance 2 wears larger than the Amazfit Active Edge (47.4mm vs 46.6mm case), giving it more wrist presence — and needing a wider wrist to sit cleanly.
On the wrist the Amazfit Active Edge feels lighter (34g vs 43g, case only).
Among the 117 47mm watches we hold thickness for, the Amazfit Active Edge is thinner than 68%, so it wears flatter than its width suggests.
Among the 83 47mm watches we hold thickness for, the Amazfit Balance 2 is thinner than 81%, so it wears flatter than its width suggests.
