Bounce 2
Which one fits you
On wrists narrower than about 45mm, the Amazfit Active is the safer pick — it stays proportionate down to roughly 38mm, where the Garmin Bounce 2 starts to hang over the edge. Above 45mm both sit cleanly, and the Garmin Bounce 2 gives you more presence.
The Garmin Bounce 2 wears larger than the Amazfit Active (43mm vs 42.36mm case), giving it more wrist presence — and needing a wider wrist to sit cleanly.
The Amazfit Active is the slimmer of the two (10.75mm vs 12.4mm), so it slides under a cuff more easily.
Among the 723 42mm watches we hold thickness for, the Amazfit Active is thinner than 87%, so it wears flatter than its width suggests.
Among the 312 43mm watches we hold thickness for, the Garmin Bounce 2 is thinner than 76%, so it wears flatter than its width suggests.
