I think they really messed up with the second version of the Huawei Watch Classic, particularly when compared to the original Huawei Watch. In my opinion it dosent look classic at all, it's too big and sporty. I wouldn't use with a suit, for instance.

Android wear update

The original might be the single best looking Android watch. But I wanted GPS.
Anyone know how to get rid of that annoying icon/pop-up that says you're disconnected from the network? It's a cloud with a line threw it pretty much right where the "12" is, and it is always on my always-on watchface. I've tried turning off notifications for every possible culprit. I can't get rid of it.
Obviously it goes away when connected to my phone or home wifi, but I don't want it showing period.

thanks for confirming
Not to me at least. I still have the following annoying Bluetooth bug, it's been six months now: if audio in on for calls there's a 12 seconds delay when picking up call on the phone. Also, I almost never see the name of the person who is calling, even with that setting off. But I believe it's a bug that only happens with the Google Pixel 2.
I've noticed it. I think I had to restart the watch to get it to sync the right time, or manually select the timezone. Even while connected to my phone, which had the right time, my watch would not change timezones.
So I'm anxiously awaiting announcements from Google and Qualcomm in the next few months....Qualcomm has a new smartwatch processor, with added power management and other features. Google may be coming out with a Pixel Watch, with an emphasis on fitness (which could mean new and additional sensors).
The other interesting possibility with a Google Pixel watch is using it for two-factor authentification, or even some sort of password/security key. That would be a pretty big deal to ditch passwords/logins if you're wearing you're watch and it's connected to your device via bluetooth.

I'm almost more interested in what other OEM's might do with the new processor. I may be mistaken, but the Google experience devices have always seemed to emphasize or launch new software/UI features much more so than being bleeding edge tech.....I'd bet money it won't have more than 4GB of storage (more like 2.4GB a effectively) so they can really push you to use the cloud, like they always do.
Also, another big change I'm hoping for is more truly standalone apps. I think this is partly a function of storage and other Wear OS limitations, but some apps seem to be merely companion/mirror of the app on your phone (which kind of defeates the purpose of a "standalone" watch).
Regarding yesterday's Wear OS redesign announcement Huge Wear OS redesign is coming, check out how it works in these GIFs
I still don't understand which smartwatches will receive it. What do you think?
Cheers

From the article I read yesterday, it sounds like only a handful of watches aren't expected to get it. Mostly older watches, LG G Watch, 2014 Moto, etc.
