Huawei Watch

The Huawei Watch is the first Android Wear-toting wearable from the Chinese brand, and in my opinion the best smartwatch to date running Google's OS – yet I'm going to stop short of suggesting you get your hands on one right away.

Sharp screen ; It looks great ; Works with iOS and Android

Android Wear is limited ; No ambient light sensor ; Could have benefited from a bigger battery

If you're looking to buy an Android Wear watch then the Huawei Watch is currently the best one on the market.

Huawei Watch review

It's either Huawei or the highway

Premium build and materials ; Sharp and fully-circular screen ; Android and iOS compatible

Expensive ; Dodgy customisation ; Only comes in one size ; So-so battery life

The Huawei Watch is not perfect, but it is a looker and edges closer to earning the "smartwatch I'd actually wear" title.

Premium build and materials ; Great screen ; Android Wear is maturing

Expensive ; Only one size option ; So-so battery life

Huawei Watch Jewel and Elegant: Huawei's Android Wear watch just got a lot glitzier

Huawei is at CES 2016 in Las Vegas , where it is taking a moment to refresh its product lineup, and of course it hasn't ignored the Huawei Watch. You can now get the company's Android Wear watch with ultra-fancy design options.

Huawei Watch review: Android Wear gets glitzy

The Huawei Watch is in an interesting device, because it caters to a relatively niche group: techy, stylish, and well-off people who prefer the Google-Android ecosystem strapped to their wrist rather than an Apple Watch. Huawei Watch is one of the most...

Stainless steel body is perfect, round display doesn't have black bar like Moto 360, screen is sapphire crystal

Same specs as competition, looks large and feels heavy/thick, lack of ambient light sensor is annoying, heart-rate sensor isn't accurate, Android Wear is standard, limited options

Huawei Watch is one of the most beautiful Android Wear watches you can buy. It's definitely got the look down, appearing attractive and enticing, just like the premium Apple Watch. That can't be said of any other Android Wear device. But it's also not...

Beautiful design ; Best-in-class display ; Respectable battery life

Expensive ; Average performance ; Only one size

From where we stand the first-generation Huawei Watch is easily the best looking smartwatch on the market right now and a strong offering from the Chinese manufacturer out the gate..

Huawei Watch review

Is the priciest Android Wear watch around worth the cash?

1.5-day battery sits among the better Wear watches ; Looks nice ; Ultra-hard Sapphire Crystal top

Very expensive ; A bit sluggish on occasion ; HR sensor no good during exercise

Huawei’s first Wear watch is out to impress, but the main benefit over the cheaper alternatives is a tougher glass screen. That’s not really enough.

Huawei Watch review: The best-looking Android Wear watch, but still only an Android Wear watch

The Huawei Watch features the highest resolution display of any Android Wear watch and is the first to feature a sapphire crystal display.

Comfortable to wear. Looks great. Features a high-res, fully round sapphire crystal display. Runs the latest version of Android Wear. Includes Wi-Fi for some phone-less functions.

The watch is thick, battery life is short for a watch, and the Android Wear software still has a few drawbacks. The lack of an ambient light sensor means the watch can't automatically adjust brightness.

The Huawei Watch is one of the best-looking smartwatches out there, but the Android Wear operating system still feels like a work in progress.

Huawei Watch vs Motorola Moto 360 comparison

Android Wear watches are launching left, right and centre following the first batch that arrived in the middle of last year, and Huawei is one of the latest companies to join the party. Here, we put the new Huawei Watch head-to-head with one of the...

Both of these smartwatches are stunning, but we do prefer the look of the Huawei Watch not least because it ditches that annoying black portion at the bottom that the Moto 360 unfortunately sports. However, for an extra £70 or more, we're not yet sure...
