Re: 2-week battery life

Charging overnight is great, but some of us would like to have a smart watch, but not one that we have to take yet another charger for if we go away for a weekend, or a week business trip.

I miss my Pebble which had a week-long battery life and could do just that.

This Huawei thing might at last be the replacement I have been looking for.

I don't care about having a full OS on my phone (or fitness tracking, GPS or receiving phone calls for that matter) just notifications.

Same reason a smartphone with 2 days battery > 1 day battery. Sure, most days you put it on to charge overnight, plus during the day at the office, but occasionally you stay a night away from home unplanned and it's good to know your phone will last an extra day.
