Along with Android Wear 2.0 announcement, Google also launched the LG Watch Style and Watch Sport smartwatches running on the latest Android Wear OS. Talking about the Huawei Watch 2, it comes with all beefy specifications more like the LG Watch Sport than the Watch Style. It supports NFC and can be used for making payments with Android Pay.

The SIM card tray can be found under the bottom strap attachment area. On the back, we can find the Heart rate sensor and the charging pins for connecting with charging dock.
