Huami unveils two new affordable smartwatches, the Sports Smartwatch 2 and Watch 2S
June 06, 2025
When Huami, a sub-brand ofXiaomi, announced that it was bringing a GPS-enabled smartwatchto the U.S.for just $129 last year, I was intrigued. At the time there weren’t too many affordable fitness tracker/smartwatch hybrid devices out there, and the selection outside ofAndroid Weardevices was slim.
TheHuami Amazfit PACEfell short of my expectations though. It was slow, had limited syncing options, a wonky touchscreen, and buggy notifications. But damn was that watch pretty.
NowHuami is backwith two new smartwatches for the new year— the Amazfit Sports Smartwatch 2 and Amazfit Watch 2S.
The classier smartwatch is the Amazfit Watch 2S. It features a sapphire glass screen and leather straps, though it’s missing a built-in GPS and a heart rate monitor.
Both smartwatches have a water resistance rating of 5 ATM, ceramic bezels, as well as 316L stainless steel buttons.
The Sport smartwatch will run for (get it?) 999 Yuan at launch, which is roughly $150 USD. That’s a little more expensive than what the original PACE watch sold for in the U.S. The classier Watch 2S model will cost 1,499 Yuan at launch, or roughly $226. No U.S. availability has been announced. Huami says it’ll show off both devices atCES 2018, so we may be able to score some hands-on (wrists-on?) time with them.
