Classic design, slim bezels, a round, sapphire screen, two-day battery life and a heart rate monitor make the top-end smartwatch worth the extra cost

Who would have thought that a little-known Chinese smartphone manufacturer famous for budget smartphones would make the best Android Wear smartwatch going?

Huawei, which recently partnered with Google to make the excellent Nexus 6P phablet, announced it’s first Android Wear smartwatch in March, although it took another six months for it to go on sale.

Pros: sapphire screen, crisp display, fluid performance, comfortable, waterproof, standard watch strap support, two-day battery

Cons: same specifications as last year’s smartwatches, maybe too big for some, more expensive than the competition
