Basic activity tracking

The editors didn't like
Battery life not as great as claimed
Activity tracking not as accurate as competitors
App is far less advanced than competitors
Display not readable in bright conditions
No phone notifications
Have to remove to charge
Limited functions
The band is bulky and uncomfortable to wear
And battery life falls short. For the price you would expect added features
Such as notifications from a smartphone. The Huawei app is bare-bones
And syncing with the Jawbone app was completely undependable
Abstract: The Huawei Talkband B2 measures 4.5x2x.5cm and can be attached to anything or it comes with a wrist strap which is certainly the way I reviewed it. In this way it weighs just 30grams.My unit was black and had a matt black rubber strap. The device clicks i...

Despite its unique two-in-one design -- it's a fitness tracker and Bluetooth headset -- the Huawei TalkBand B2 ultimately overpromises and underdelivers on both accounts...
Bluetooth calling functionality (if that's what you're after), more premium looking design than original TalkBand, basic activity tracking, iOS and Android compatible
Battery life not as great as claimed, activity tracking not as accurate as competitors, app is far less advanced than competitors, display not readable in bright conditions
The idea of the Huawei TalkBand B2 is one you'll either love or hate. It all boils down to whether you want a Bluetooth earpiece or not - because if you're looking for an activity tracker that allows you to answer calls without talking to your wrist...
Abstract: Meet the Huawei TalkBand B2, the sequel to the Chinese giant's original two-in-one timepiece/earpiece that looks better, packs in more features and comes in premium metallic colours, ditching the bright plastic of its predecessor. Costing around £170, is...

Looks pretty slick, OLED display is almost invisible, Battery life is good, Comfortable fit,
Inaccurate sleep tracking, Fiddly to use as Bluetooth headset, Quite expensive, App is pretty basic,
The Huawei TalkBand B2 is indeed an improvement on the disaster that was the B1 but, let's face it, that's not saying much. The main issues that plagued the B1 are still evident for the, albeit much better looking, successor – in that it's not accurate or...
Excellent build quality, Calls sound great, Android and iOS compatibility, It's different enough to be cool
Who wears a Bluetooth earpiece anymore?, No notifications, Too large to wear all the time
I ended up liking the TalkBand B2's quirky nature and oddball looks. It certainly got some attention, and the party trick of popping out the earpiece is a bizarrely entertaining crowd-pleaser. It just didn't fit in very well with my phone use, which is a...
Very expensive, Very limited smart features, A likely ridicule-magnet, Rubbish visibility in bright sunlight
The Huawei TalkBand B2 is charmingly out of step with the rest of the smartwatch world The Huawei TalkBand B2 is charmingly out of step with the rest of the smartwatch world. Where the Apple and Android Wear crowd try to do as much as they can to convinc...

Lovely design, works with Android and iOS, good battery life, fast charging
Display not great in sunlight, only basic exercise info, need to be removed from cradle to charge
The Huawei TalkBand B2 is a good-looking bit of wearable tech that you might actually want to wear -- and it has a Bluetooth headset! It doesn't look cheap, despite not being overly expensive, and while the Bluetooth headset isn't of the best quality, it...
Abstract: Wearable products, especially those that cover aspects of health y living, continue to be a popular item for many. The latest such device to attach itself to my wrist is the TalkBand B2 from Huawei . As you might suppose from the “B2” reference, this prod...

This is all a bit of a shame, because I've come to like the B2 during my time with it. It's light and comfortable; it provides a useful indication of my activity and sleep patterns; it tells the time; and it lets me answer calls quickly without having to ...
