Different results of new vs returning users in regular report and dashboard widget

In the regular report through menu (Audience/Overview) I get the New vs. Returning visitors ratio 47% vs 53%. But in the dashboard widget the same New vs. Returning visitors ratio is 70% vs 30%. Same segment(s), same date.

Please why is this and which data should I trust? Thank you very much.

Are you using "Users" as the metric in the dashboard widget?

You must use "Sessions" for it to match the new vs returning report under Audience Overview.
