Fresh off its unveiling, we’ve got the Honor Watch 6, and it’s about as easy a recommendation as a wearable could be. The watch 6 ships in either Twilight Brown or Shadow Black (our model), and it normally costs \u20ac250\/\u00a3230 (\u20ac20\/\u00a320 more for the Brown model), but is \u20ac170\/\u00a3150 for the first month – that’s an \u20ac80\/\u00a380 discount. Gotta love Honor!<\/p>\n

In the box, you get the watch, a fluororubber strap with the Black model, a leather one with the Brown model (hence the markup), and a magnetic charger ending on USB-A. Sadly, the charger has two pins that align with the watch, not a universal wireless puck.<\/p>\n

\"Honor<\/p>\n

So what makes the Honor Watch 6 an easy recommendation? It has a mammoth battery that’s 20mAh shy of 1,000mAh. That’s quite big for a watch. And because it runs Honor’s proprietary MagicOS, it can last for up to a month of typical use!<\/p>\n

But the huge battery isn’t impressive in and of itself. It’s the fact that you’d never guess it’s there that’s the impressive bit. On the wrist, the Honor Watch 6 feels every bit the regular smartwatch that it looks like. It’s not heavy – we measured the watch and strap at just under 68g.<\/p>\n

Yet, it’s not light and cheap-feeling either. Dare we say, it’s just right! You want a bit of heft in a 46mm watch after all.<\/p>\n

\"Honor<\/p>\n

The watch is well-made. It feels solid. The front glass looks flush with the case, but there are six slightly elevated index markers on the aluminum bezel, which should protect the glass in a fall.<\/p>\n

This is a classic timepiece with twin lugs on both ends, and two buttons on the right side, one of which is a rotating crown.<\/p>\n

\"Honor<\/p>\n

The screen itself is a circular 1.46-inch 464x464px AMOLED with up to 3,000 nits. Honor’s MagicOS looks just like the smartphone version with lightly transparent elements throughout.<\/p>\n

Anyway, that’s all for now. We’ll bring you a review of the Honor Watch 6 eventually, but with a runtime of 35 days, battery testing will take some time!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Fresh off its unveiling, we’ve got the Honor Watch 6, and it’s about as easy a recommendation as…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":749616,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[17],"tags":[64,63,213,105],"class_list":["post-749615","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-gadgets","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-gadgets","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/749615","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=749615"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/749615\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/749616"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=749615"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=749615"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=749615"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
