The Huawei Band 7 can go for longer on a charge – 10 days of heavy use, and up to 14 with moderate stress. The Watch Fit 2 promises 7 days of heavy use and up to 10 with moderate use.

Finally, there’s a big difference in the strap material. The Huawei Watch 7 uses a black silicone band with a simple plastic clasp. It’s comfortable and does a fine job of keeping the 16g watch on your wrist.

The Huawei Watch Fit 2 is heavier. Depending on the model it can be 26g – Active, and 30g for the Classic and Elegant. The Active comes with silicone straps, the Classic is Leather, and the Elegant is metal with quality magnetic clasps.
