Huawei Watch 2
And yet we can't recommend the Huawei Watch 2 unequivocally. Android Wear lags behind watchOS in the app department and it just isn't intuitive to use. And the watch itself is big and bulky, limiting your abilities for all-day wear.
Pros:
- Continuous heart rate monitoring
- Built-in GPS and Android Pay compatibility
- Accurate step and distance tracking
- Good battery life
Cons:
- Strap feels chintzy and isn't easy to swap out
- Difficult to keep track of long-term fitness progress
- Wi-Fi can be finicky

Huawei Watch 2 review
The Huawei Watch 2 is the sort of watch we should probably have seen a year after Android Wear appeared, not three years. But that’s a knock on Google as much as Huawei. It’s not as pretty as the original Huawei Watch or the LG Watch Style, and that matters when any watch choice is a style choice. It has an awful lot of features, including GPS, NFC and an HR sensor. But some of them don’t work as well as they should. GPS reliability is the stinger, with tracking fidelity much worse than that of a good phone. Or, this watch’s most important rival, the Apple Watch 2. Flaky GPS and heart rate readings aside, the Watch 2 has the basics down, including decent battery life, a sharp screen and as solid performance as can be expected from a smartwatch. Now you just have to ask yourself whether that’s worth £300 of your cash.
Pros:
- One of the longer-lasting Wear watches
- Packed full of features
Cons:
- Boring design lets down high-quality build
- Sketchy on-watch GPS
- Not swim-ready
- Expensive

Huawei Watch 2 review
Imagine Huawei would have just revamped its simple, but slick, original Wear watch. Imagine an original Huawei Watch with Android Wear 2.0 out of the box, packing NFC for Android Pay, GPS for run tracking and a better battery life. That's what we wanted from the Huawei Watch 2.
Pros:
- Packed full of sensors
- Battery life is impressive
- Android Wear 2.0 out of the box
- Plenty of fitness/tracking data
Cons:
- Loses the charm of the original
- Fiddly to use
- Build quality feels a bit cheap
- Questionable heart rate data
