Huawei Watch 2 - User Reviews

  • It must be with lte turned on :), I got auto setting and with aod I got almost two days of juice. I am not playing around much though.

  • Can be uppgraded to Wear os 2.7 which is great and battery life is 1,5 day ish

  • Everything is good but battery life is so poor, battery drain ao fast not even 5hrs..

  • At last i have got my Huawei watch 2. Haw can i load song to this watch from my computer ? Thank you

  • Samsung Gear S uses nano SIM. It has WiFi connectivity as well.

  • I have also same openion,i need sim option,,,,,

  • Total crap. Battery lasts for about 1.5 h when go running with Runtastic app on.

  • was waiting for this huawei watch gt but hugely disappointed. I want a smartwatch with sim slot. Options are limited though..... 1.Huawei watch 2 lte 2.Lg watch urbane 2. 3.Is there any other watch with sim slot (not esim)??? I have not seen any of the watch i mentioned in real.... Which one should I go ?

  • anyone tried how long it will last in just watch mode always on is off and not paired in phone wifi off? or the longest you can achieve before charging it.

  • After update to Wear OS

  • Anyone manage to send files to this watch? I've updated to Oreo / Wear OS & now cannot send small file (pic or sms tone) by bluetooth or FTP, either from phone or computer. All showing as connected, got the watch IP / port, but nothing actually works. I believe to setup adb you need to connect usb first to get computer to recognise it... but it does not have usb!!!

  • Hi, do you know if this watch we can download google play store and download some APPs such as strava, Deezer and spotify?

  • yes, it works with all android platform devices

  • It's not wireless there is a little magnetic dock that sucks up to the back of the watch and has pins to charge it. It's a terrible design for the sport edition because the band does not lay flat so the back of the watch doesn't lay flat. You have to pick up the charger and connect it to the watch the set it down on its side.

  • does anybody know how i can charge this watch wirelessly or what technology it uses? cant seem to find it anywere...

  • pros : fast, stable , beautiful, fit in my hand, have sim card slot which can be my second mobile phone , and the sound quality quite good cons: sometime lag but acceptable, not built-in web browser (i am still finding a free web broswer).

  • Hi I want to know whether this watch 2 from huawei be used with honor phones. as in are they compatible with honor 9 . Awaiting reply by any of the user or from right sources.

  • correct size and fit for men wrist. good look also. better than other brands.

  • huawei watch 2 is good look and best lte.

  • I'm very happy with the Huawei Watch 2. Does everything it says it does. Nice and light. Great battery life. Looks great. Couldn't justify the classic, as the difference wasn't enough. I bought a third party black metal watch band and went with that. Heart rate monitor is accurate enough for my purposes.

  • I appear to be wrong. Apologies. It is much more expensive though.

  • Classic has NFC...

  • Doesn't have NFC though.

  • They have Huawei Watch 2 Classic!

  • But you can't pair your Apple watch with Android phone

  • Apple Watch is better then android wear by far

  • Looks strange. Anyway who wear watches now if they can follow the time on mobile phone :-)

  • Simple: watches have less that needs to be sealed. One major factor is screen surface area. That watch only has a screen area of about 1.13 sq Inches, where a 5" phone would be 10.68 sq Inches. That means when submerged you have 10x as much pressure that's going to press inward and warp the shell of the phone to create gaps and start leaking.

  • basically they don't want to add alot of improvements because if they ran out of them there will be no reason for customers to get their products. so minor improvements is the answer. all electronics manufacturers do the same. its us who buy in for minor upgrades who are responsible for this mess. if we didn't get a new product because no major improvements are made then they will learn the lesson.

  • my wall clock can overclock to 24 hours to the future... this watch can?

  • I very much wonder why you can make IP68 watches(water prove watches) but Can not make IP68 Android phones, why huawei why?

  • I don't know WHY they keep bringing out watches with NO IMPROVEMENTS over previous or competitors watches. Nothing NEW here whatsoever?! Why even waste your time. You need to make "leapfrog" enhancements, not make the same thing over and over. It's just stupid!

  • Pretty cool TVC of the Watch2

  • Your super cheap and ugly.

  • great news

  • Looks super cheap and ugly, hope they have another version.

  • I hope that the battery provides for at least 2 days usage between charges. I preferred the classic style of watch 1 but I will go for the watch 2 if it provides a significant improvement in performance.

  • How much is it going to be ?

  • 42mm or 46mm case diameters?

  • Nice
