The Amazfit Balance smartwatch has received a fresh update, version 3.25.5.5, bringing a suite of enhancements. While the update boasts a lengthy changelog, a key highlight for many users will be the refined step-counting algorithm. This addresses recent concerns raised by several users about inaccurate step counts, particularly after the OTA 8 update (version 3.25.5.3).
User Feedback and Continued Refinement
Following the OTA 8 release, some users reported anomalies in their step counts. Instances like simple handwashing were erroneously registering as multiple steps, leading to frustration among users. While the changelog for the latest update specifically mentions an improved step-counting algorithm, some users have yet to observe a significant difference in their step count accuracy.
Beyond Step Counts: New Features and Enhancements
Beyond the step count refinement, the update retains the features introduced in version 3.25.5.3. These include:
- Strength Training Quality Assessment: Provides more insightful feedback on your strength training workouts.
- Automatic Activity Tracking: Automates the start of running and walking activities for greater convenience.
- Expanded Workout Modes: Introduces three new workout modes: Ski mountaineering, Dog walking, and Snow shovelling.
