Fantastic fitness tracking, lots of smart functions, compatible with Android Pay and voice control,
Mediocre display, unappealing aesthetic
The Watch 2 by Huawei is a solid smartwatch that thoroughly improves on its predecessor. While we do wish Huawei had spent a little more effort on the overall design of the watch and on its display, this watch more than compensates with its excellent fitn...
Very accurate heart rate monitor that works 24/7, Built-in GPS means you can run without your phone, It's not as bulky as sportier watches like the LG Watch Sport or the Garmin Fenix 5X, Watch's speaker produces surprisingly good audio quality
The screen is so small it makes text very hard to read, especially while moving, Battery struggles to last 24 hours, Not particularly attractive, Plagued with lag, crashes, and random bugs
Stainless steel accents give it a premium feel, Battery life is impressive and can be stretched for weeks, The leather strap is equally good for working out and dining out
Its bigger, thicker, and less elegant than its predecessor, No digital crown for scrolling, Too much fitness and not enough fashion
The Huawei Watch 2 is a fine Android Wear 2.0 entry, but it doesn't bring enough to the table to separate it from its peers...
Excellent battery life, full set of exercise features, rated IP68 waterproof and dustproof, high quality display, fast performance, standalone GPS and NFC, can connect to Bluetooth headphones on its own
Relies too much on touch controls, needs a physical start/stop button for workouts, too expensive, Prev2 of 2Next
Like last year, I think Huawei did a pretty good job with their smartwatch. But, I still have some lingering doubts. I think it's a solid smartwatch for runners, but the lack of a dedicated start/stop button for runs is enough to put it on the back foot —...

Continuous heart rate monitoring, Built-in GPS and Android Pay compatibility, Accurate step and distance tracking, Good battery life,
Strap feels chintzy and isn't easy to swap out, Difficult to keep track of long-term fitness progress, Wi-Fi can be finicky
The Huawei Watch 2 features excellent fitness tracking capabilities and is the strongest showcase for Android Wear 2.0 we've seen so far, but that still doesn't make it a perfect smartwatch...
Abstract: I'm a firm believer in the usefulness of smartwatches, but even I can't deny that the product category is struggling. Despite Apple joining the fray with its first Watch two years ago, wearables still haven't taken off with mainstream consumers. Google'...

Abstract: There's no denying, I was a big fan of the original Huawei Watch. It was classy, stylish, and most importantly for me, it looked like a real watch. Enter the Huawei Watch 2. This year, things have changed. With this device, Huawei has its eye on the fitn...

Small charger, Good battery life, Always-on display
Humdrum design, Mediocre apps, No LTE support for the U.S version
While I was testing the Watch 2, Huawei CEO Eric Xu Zhijun was quoted as saying, "I am always confused as to what smartwatches are for when we have smartphones." His ambivalence about the category reinforced mine, and nothing about the Huawei Watch 2 alle...
