    Hi folks,

    Is it worth upgrading from a 1st Gen Huawei Watch to a Huawei Watch 2? The Watch 2 is £137.99 on Amazon today, with the Watch 2 4G at £165.99.

    I use my watch for the notifications, Spotify controls, fitness tracking, etc. and I'm happy - getting 2 - 2.5 days out of a charge. The sleep tracking would be nice, as would the NFC payment functionality. I see the Watch 2 has a bigger battery than the 1st Gen, which would also be nice!

    Would the Watch 2 be a good upgrade, or is there anything else that would be better? Would there be any noticeable improvements in the functions I mentioned above? Thanks for any advice!

    I have both (non 3g) and am (trying) to alternate between the 2. Both last same amount of time, 1 day with display on all the time. Display is fairly small on the 2, vibrations are better on the 2. I go the 2 for NFC but don't use it as i couldn't be asked activating it before use, its far easier to take the phone out and use that. I wear the 2 when swimming and its grand.
