HONOR CHOICE Watch 2i: the affordable smartwatch that doesn’t compromise on features
HONOR has officially announced the Italian debut of HONOR CHOICE Watch 2i, a smartwatch that aims to conquer the entry-level segment of wearables with technical features usually reserved for higher-end devices.
We can already tell you that this smartwatch will be given as a gift starting May 14th when purchasing the new HONOR 600 or 600 Lite.
AMOLED Display: A Luxury in This Segment
The standout feature of HONOR CHOICE Watch 2i is undoubtedly its 1.85-inch AMOLED display with a 75% screen-to-body ratio. This translates to a remarkably large reading surface, perfect for quickly checking notifications, reading fitness data, or navigating through menus without straining your eyes. As we know, AMOLED technology offers deep blacks, vibrant colors, and a sharpness (322 ppi) that makes every detail visible even in direct sunlight—an advantage not to be underestimated in this price range. Additionally, the aesthetics are enhanced by refined 2.5D glass and a central frame with a metallic texture, giving the watch a premium look suitable for both the office and the gym.
Bluetooth Calls on Your Wrist
One of the most requested features by modern users is the ability to manage communications without constantly pulling out your smartphone. HONOR CHOICE Watch 2i addresses this need by integrating Bluetooth calling directly from the watch. With the built-in microphone and speaker, you can make and receive calls with a simple touch. Whether you’re driving, cooking, or in the middle of an intense workout, the connection remains stable, allowing for quick responses even through predefined messages when you can’t talk.
Wellness Monitoring 24/7
Health monitoring has become a fundamental pillar for wearables. HONOR CHOICE Watch 2i integrates a comprehensive system of sensors for 24/7 monitoring. Features include:
- Heart Rate Monitoring: to keep track of your heart rate during rest and activity.
- Blood Oxygen (SpO2) Monitoring: a vital parameter for assessing respiratory efficiency and overall health status.
- Stress Management: the watch analyzes daily tension levels, offering smart notifications to encourage users to take breaks when necessary.
- Sleep Analysis: through the HONOR Health app, the device analyzes light, deep, and REM sleep phases, providing detailed insights to improve nighttime rest quality.
For sports enthusiasts, HONOR CHOICE Watch 2i is a true training companion. It supports 109 different sports modes, covering nearly every imaginable activity: from running to cycling, up to more niche workouts. The smartwatch can automatically recognize different activities, beginning to track data as soon as users start moving. Durability isn’t just software-related; the device is designed to resist water up to 10 meters deep, making it perfect for withstanding sweat during the hardest sessions or for use in the rain and while washing hands.
All collected data is synchronized with the HONOR Health app, which offers an intuitive dashboard to monitor progress over time.
Extraordinary Battery Life: Up to Two Weeks on a Single Charge
One of the biggest “pain points” of modern smartwatches is battery life. HONOR addresses this issue by equipping the Watch 2i with an optimized 330 mAh battery that guarantees up to 14 days of autonomy on a single charge. This means you can go on an entire trip or two working weeks without having to worry about bringing the charger along.
Pricing, Availability, and Bundle Offers
HONOR CHOICE Watch 2i hits the market with an aggressive list price of €69.90, available directly on Honor.com. The most interesting opportunities come from the launch bundles active from May 14, 2026, which allow you to pair the watch with the new smartphones from the HONOR 600 series.
