 For the most part, smartwatches aren't justified regardless of the time it takes to charge them.

Be that as it may, when Huawei gave me an audit unit of their new Huawei Watch 2, which has essentially all the tech you can stuff into a smartwatch nowadays, and runs the new Android Wear 2, I chose to give it a shot.

Sadly, while both the watch and the new form of Google's smartwatch OS do have a couple saving graces, following half a month of use despite everything I can't prescribe either.

On paper, the Huawei Watch 2 is everything a cutting edge Android smartwatch ought to be: A capable, flexible wearable watch that is incredible at following your wellness exercises. It has LTE and GPS chips, so you can untether it from your telephone. It's water safe. It has a speaker and an amplifier, so you can make gets while never hauling out your telephone. It can even store and play some music while you run.

And keeping in mind that the plan is non specific and plasticky, the watch is light and more agreeable than some other Android Wear gadget I've worn.

New interface + Android Wear 2 = confusion

 The screen, at 1.2 inches, is 0.2 inches littler than that of its antecedent, the Huawei Watch. What's more, here, the issues start. The watch has a crown that appears as though it ought to pivot, yet it doesn't. What's more, since the screen is as of now very little, the crown acts as a burden when you swipe on the watch's face.

It wasn't a dealbreaker, yet when you include Android Wear 2 in with the general mish-mash, the experience turns out to be really terrible. Basically, the blend of Huawei's concept of UI and Android Wear 2's new summons is a flat out wreckage.

For instance, when you swipe right or left, you now change the watch confront. Almost a month in, regardless I haven't gotten used to that. I anticipate that the swipe motion will bring me applications, or anything that is really valuable, instead of something that I do decently once in a while.

Or, on the other hand take Huawei's two equipment catches. Press the main one, and it dispatches applications; however squeeze it once more, and it's an exit/back catch. In any case, the base catch doesn't work that way; squeeze it, and it dispatches the wellness part of the applications; squeeze it once more, and it begins the at present chose application.
