Clear call quality. Accurate fitness tracking. Attractive design. Comfortable.
Battery Life is amazing. Simple to use tracking app and works with Jawbone UP. Nice design
Doubles as a Bluetooth headset
Features neat animations
Fitness data ports to excellent UP app
Premium and stylish design
Convenience factor of being a twoinone device
Display blends into the unit's design
Automatic sleep mode
Water & dust resistant construction
The editors didn't like
Except Windows Phone
Microphone is somewhat quiet
Notification system could be expanded
Barely readable outside
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
Inaccurate sleep tracking
Integration with Up app is currently limited
Earpiece still tricky to insert
Short battery life
Pricey. Limited use. Faint
Reflective display. Positioning in ear can be finicky
A little bulky
Strap is a little cheap. Price tag at $179.99 is a little high
Display tough to see
Battery life mediocre
Expensive
Weak volume makes it tough to use as a headset
Requires some tinkering to find the proper fit in the ear
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 ...
The TalkBand B2 is certainly an enormous improvement over the TalkBand B1 in terms of design and practicality, but I'm still not sure I'd buy one. It's an opinion divider, but I think for a (probably small) number of people, this device is going to be rea...
Although I applaud Huawei for trying something different in a market of increasingly carbon-copy devices, I'm still not convinced this is filling a gap. The TalkBand B2 is a major step up on its predecessor, however. It is what the B1 should have been....
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 then...
Abstract: The Huawei TalkBand B2 is a hybrid wearable that offers both fitness tracking and Bluetooth headset functionality, but it doesn't best dedicated devices in either category...
