Saw a tweet today from Evan Blass (@evleaks) that the Huawei Watch 2 2018 will be the same as the original, except for the addition of eSIM support.
eSIM? Seriously, Huawei? I don't know of anyone who would make phone calls with their watch... I know a lot of people, like me, who would love NFC support for mobile payments. I love my Huatch, and want it to last for a long time. Yes, we have Android Wear 2.0 (but not Wear OS), but how much longer can we expect updates for the original? Are we going to be compelled to buy the new one for future-proofing?
