Huawei Watch 2 Classic review

A more basic version of the Huawei Watch 2

Android Wear 2.0 ; Attractive design

No LTE option ; Strange lack of crown

The Huawei Watch 2 Classic is a stylish wearable, and a tempting option if you want to get Android Wear 2.0 on your wrist, prefer a more formal look than the Watch 2 and aren’t looking for extensive fitness features.

Huawei Watch 2 Classic Review: Good watch but a missed opportunity for Wear 2.0

The Huawei Watch 2 Classic isn't a bad watch by any means, but it doesn't meet the lofty expectations set by the original model.

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.

With just a handful of watches that can claim they are built for Android Wear 2.0, the Huawei Watch 2 Classic doesn’t have a ton of competition. And with Moto and Asus reportedly abandoning the Wear platform, that doesn’t seem likely to change anytime...

Huawei Watch 2 Classic review: A rather surprising turn of events

Huawei's first generation Android watch was a gem and when I got my hands on the Huawei Watch 2 Classic, I was rather surprised.

Nicer design than I expected ; Build quality is amazing ; Improved charging puck ; Android Wear 2.0 ; Good fitness tracking ; Heart rate monitor

Some may find it pricey ; I do wish the steel portion around the watch face was thinner ; Call quality isn't the best

I was wrong. My first thought based on the look was that this watch was going to be a dog given how much I loved the first generation. This watch is really a stellar performer and it’s pretty damn good looking. It’s not the same design as the first gen...

Huawei Watch 2 review

While the Huawei Watch 2 is a wonderful showcase of all the new features and capabilities of Android Wear 2.0 and its particular focus on fitness, the new direction this has resulted in will be disappointing for those who are fans of the elegant...

AMOLED display is great, helps with battery life ; Two-day battery life ; Watch Mode further saves battery ; Nearly all new Wear 2.0 features leveraged well

Lack of an extra navigation method (rotating side button) ; Design needlessly sporty ; Watch strap feels cheap
