Let’s have a quick look down on what the new Honor Magic Watch 2 has to offer.
Honor Magic Watch 2 Overview

But when it comes to the screen, there is also another variant available with a 1.2-inch screen.

The watch body is fully made up of 351L stainless steel while the design of the Magic Watch 2 still remains the same as its predecessor. And as in its predecessor, you get two control buttons on the watch on the right side. Also, there is a tachymeter available on the dial on the 46mm variant while the 42mm loses it. More on, the bezels on the device is also a little bit thinner in the new one compared to its predecessor.
Well, now let’s talk about the internal hardware specs of the device. At first, let’s talk about its processor. The new Honor Magic Watch 2 is powered by Kirin A1 processor which is, in fact, a major upgrade to the device. The same processor has been used to power the Huawei Watch GT 2.
The new watch also supports Bluetooth 5.1 connectivity which means you can get advanced connectivity in the watch. As per claimed by Honor, you can stay connected with the watch even while your watch is at a distance of 150m which is really amazing!
On the storage part, the Magic Watch 2 is provided with 4GB of internal storage while 2GB of the space on the device can be used to store songs that might come very handy on the exercise period.
