Which one fits you
On wrists narrower than about 50mm, the Garmin Venu X1 is the safer pick — it stays proportionate down to roughly 48mm, where the Amazfit Balance 2 starts to hang over the edge. Above 50mm both sit cleanly, and the Amazfit Balance 2 gives you more presence.
The Amazfit Balance 2 wears larger than the Garmin Venu X1 (47.4mm vs 41mm case), giving it more wrist presence — and needing a wider wrist to sit cleanly.
The Garmin Venu X1 is the slimmer of the two (7.9mm vs 12.3mm), so it slides under a cuff more easily.
On the wrist the Garmin Venu X1 feels lighter (34g vs 43g, case only).
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.
Among the 374 41mm watches we hold thickness for, the Garmin Venu X1 is thinner than 100%, so it wears flatter than its width suggests.
