Huawei Android Wear Smart wearables Announcement

The Huawei Watch 2 (2018) is official and not much has changed since the Watch 2 Pro. This model is available with nanoSIM or eSIM that connect the smart timepiece to 4G networks, plus a cheaper Bluetooth-only version.

The screen is a 1.2” OLED with 390 x 390 px resolution, which is protected by Gorilla Glass. The watch weighs 57g and measures 45 x 48.9 x 12.6 mm, the wrist bands are not easily changed. The casing is IP68 waterproof.

The Watch 2 (2018) is powered by a Snapdragon 2100 chipset, no surprises here. It has 768 MB of RAM and 4 GB of built-in storage. Thanks to NFC, it supports a plethora of payment systems – Huawei and Ali Pay, plus the WeChat system.

With an eSIM, it can make calls and use web services, including streaming music. There’s a built-in GPS, which tracks your runs in real time. The watch can track your heart rate as you run and it will monitor the quality of your sleep at night. There’s a Galvanic Skin Response sensor too, plus a barometer, accelerometer, gyro and compass.

With “typical” workouts, the battery will last 1 and a half days, which drops to just 1 day if you use 4G. The battery can be charged completely in 100 minutes.

Nothing has changed!! But at least I don't have to update from my current Huawei 2 Smartwatch. In the meantime, I will wait to see what Google bring later this year with their new Smartwatches.
