In early December, Zepp Health unveiled a special edition of its Amazfit Balance smartwatch in collaboration with the non-profit organization One Tree Planted. This version of the wearable arrives in four new colors inspired by nature. Also, its packaging is environment-friendly. The device is now up for sale in China almost a month after its announcement for global markets.
The Amazfit Balance Special Edition is
priced at ¥ 1,899 (US$ 265) in China. It can be availed in four colors, such as
Lagoon, Woodland, Meadow, or Deep Sea. The packaging of this variant of the
smartwatch is claimed to be developed with 100% environmentally friendly
materials. It uses biodegradable electroplated aluminum (used in the hot
stamping process) and biodegradable non-mineral ink.
For every unit purchased, Zepp Health will
donate US$ 2 in support of urban forestry projects in Europe organized by One Tree
Planted. Thus, the retail box will include an eco-friendly sticker that
commemorates the participation of buyers. In terms of features, the product is
the same as the regular version, which also retails at the same price.
Globally, the wearable is priced at US$ 229.99 and can be purchased at a cheaper
price from certain retailers.
Unfortunately, in India, it is currently
only sold in the regular version. It is priced at ₹ 24,999 and can be purchased
from Flipkart. The key features of the Amazfit Balance consists of a 1.5-inch
circular AMOLED display with 1500 nits peak brightness level, Zepp OS 3.0
operating system, AI-powered fitness coach (Zepp Coach), Bluetooth calls, Alexa
built-in, contactless payments (select markets), and up to 14-day battery life (typical
mixed usage).
