Huawei Watch 2 (2018) rumor sounds a lot like the 2017 model

Android Wear stalled – perhaps due to lack of new hardware - but Huawei hasn’t given up on it, it seems. What is has given is counting to 3, so here’s a rumor for the Huawei Watch 2 (2018). To be fair, the specs are pretty similar so this really is more of a refresh of the 2nd-gen watch than a new model.

Huawei Watch 2 (2018) rumor sounds a lot like the 2017 model

It’s not even going to wait for the new Qualcomm chipset and instead use the Snapdragon 2100 (a rejiggered Snapdragon 210) with 768 MB of RAM and 4 GB of storage – same as the current Watch 2.

The 2018 edition will also stick with the 1.2” AMOLED display (390 x 390 px), same battery, same wireless connectivity (including the e-SIM) and same sensors too: heart rate, capacitance, barometer, gyro, accelerometer, compass and ambient light.

At least we can hope for a price drop of the older model or perhaps some new color/wristband options for the new one. Or maybe it's something about that gaming watch patent.
